with its terms, have been done.

For and in consideration of the premises and the purchase of the Securities by the Holders thereof, it is mutually covenanted and agreed,
for the equal and proportionate benefit of all Holders of the Securities or of series thereof, as follows:

the plural as well as the singular; 
 (b) all other terms used herein which are defined in the Trust Indenture Act, either
directly or by reference therein, have the meanings assigned to them therein;

defined herein have the meanings assigned to them in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and, except as otherwise herein expressly provided, the term “generally accepted accounting principles” with respect to any
computation required or permitted hereunder shall mean such accounting principles as are generally accepted in the United States of America at the date of such computation; and 

(d) the words “herein”, “hereof” and “hereunder” and other words of similar import refer to this

to direct or cause the direction of the management or policies of such Person, whether through the ownership of voting securities, by agreement or otherwise; provided, that beneficial ownership of 10% or more of the Voting Stock of a Person

Restricted Subsidiaries. For purposes of this definition, the terms “controlling,” “controlled by” and “under common control with” have correlative meanings.

present value of the obligation of the lessee for net rental payments during the remaining term of the lease included in such sale and leaseback transaction including any period for which such lease has been extended or may, at the option of the
lessor, be extended. Such present value shall be calculated using a discount rate equal to the rate of interest implicit in such transaction, determined in accordance with GAAP; provided, however, that if such sale and leaseback
transaction results in a Capital Lease Obligation, the amount of Indebtedness represented thereby will be determined in accordance with the definition of “Capital Lease Obligation.”

London interbank offered rates for deposits in U.S. Dollars, “Business Day” shall exclude any day on which commercial banks and foreign exchange markets do not settle payments in London. 

“Capital Stock” means: 
 (1) in the case of a corporation, corporate stock; 
 (2) in the
case of an association or business entity, any and all shares, interests, participations, rights or other equivalents (however designated) of corporate stock;

Securities of any one series shall be substantially identical except as to denomination and except as may otherwise be provided in or pursuant to the Board Resolution referred to in Section 2.02 and (subject to Section 3.02) set forth in
the Officers’ Certificate referred to in Section 2.02 or in any indenture supplemental hereto. 

  
 21 









 The Securities of each series shall be issuable in such denominations as shall be specified
as contemplated by Section 2.02. In the absence of any such provisions with respect to the Securities of any series, the Securities of such series denominated in Dollars shall be issuable in denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of
$1,000 in excess thereof. Securities of each series shall be numbered, lettered or otherwise distinguished in such manner or in accordance with such plan as the officers of the Issuers executing the same may determine with the approval of the
Trustee. Each Security shall bear the appropriate legends, if any, as required by U.S. Federal tax law and regulations. 

SECTION 3.02 Execution, Delivery, Dating and Authentication. (a) The Securities shall be executed on behalf of the Issuers by
a manual or facsimile signature of at least one Officer of each of the Issuers. In case any of the above referenced Officers of the Issuers who shall have signed any of the Securities shall cease to be such officer before the Securities so signed
shall have been authenticated and delivered by the Trustee or disposed of by the Issuers, such Securities nevertheless may be authenticated and delivered or disposed of as though the person who signed such Securities had not ceased to be such
Officer; and any Securities may be signed on behalf of the Issuers by such persons as, at the actual date of the execution of such Security, shall be such Officers of the Issuers, although at the date of the execution of this Indenture any such
person was not such Officer. 
 (b) At any time and from time to time, the Issuers may deliver Securities of any series
executed by the Issuers to the Trustee for authentication, together with an Issuers’ Order for the authentication and delivery of such Securities, and the Trustee in accordance with the Issuers’ Order shall authenticate and make available
for delivery such Securities. 
 (c) The Trustee shall not be required to authenticate Securities of any series if the
issue of such Securities pursuant to this Indenture will affect the Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under the Securities and this Indenture or otherwise in a manner which is not reasonably acceptable to the Trustee, or if the Trustee
determines that such action may not lawfully be taken. 
 (d) Each Security shall be dated the date of its authentication.

 (e) No Security shall be entitled to any benefit under this Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose unless
there appears on such Security a certificate of authentication substantially in the form provided for below executed by the Trustee by manual signature, and such certificate upon any Security shall be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that
such Security has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Security shall have been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder but never issued and sold by the Issuers, and the Issuers shall deliver such
Security to the Trustee for cancellation as provided in Section 3.08 together with a written statement (which need not comply with Section 1.02 and need not be accompanied by an Opinion of Counsel) stating that such Security has never been
issued and sold by the Issuers, for all purposes of this Indenture such Security shall be deemed never to have been authenticated and delivered hereunder and shall never be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture. 

  
 22 









 (f) The Trustee’s certificate of authentication shall be in substantially the
following form: 
 Dated:

 SECTION 3.03 Temporary Securities. (a) Pending the preparation of definitive Securities
of any series, the Issuers may execute, and upon Issuers’ Order the Trustee shall authenticate and make available for delivery, temporary Securities which are printed, lithographed, typewritten, mimeographed or otherwise produced, in any
authorized denomination, substantially of the tenor of the definitive Securities in lieu of which they are issued, in registered form or, if authorized, in bearer form, and with such appropriate insertions, omissions, substitutions and other
variations as the officers executing such Securities may determine (but which do not affect the rights, duties or immunities of the Trustee), as evidenced conclusively by their execution of such Securities. Such temporary Securities may be in global
form. 
 (b) Except in the case of temporary Securities in global form (which shall be exchanged in accordance with the
provisions of the following paragraphs), if temporary Securities of any series are issued, the Issuers will cause definitive Securities of that series to be prepared without unreasonable delay. After the preparation of definitive Securities of such
series, the temporary Securities of such series shall be exchangeable for definitive Securities of such series upon surrender of the temporary Securities of such series at the office or agency of the Issuers maintained pursuant to Section 10.02
in a Place of Payment for such series for the purpose of exchanges of Securities of such series, without charge to the Holder. Upon surrender for cancellation of any one or more temporary Securities of any series, the Issuers shall execute and the
Trustee shall authenticate and make available for delivery in exchange therefor a like aggregate principal amount of definitive Securities of the same series and of like tenor or authorized denominations. 

(c) Without unnecessary delay but in any event not later than the date specified in, or determined pursuant to the terms of, any
such temporary global Security (the “Exchange Date”), the Issuers shall deliver to the Trustee definitive Securities, in aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of such temporary global Security, executed by the
Issuers. On or after the Exchange Date such temporary global Security shall be surrendered by the common depositary for the benefit of Euroclear and Clearstream, Luxembourg (the “Common Depositary”) to the Trustee, as the
Issuers’ agent for such purpose, to be exchanged, in whole or from time to time in part, for definitive Securities without charge and the Trustee shall authenticate and make available for delivery, in exchange for each portion of such temporary


  
 23 









 
global Security, an equal aggregate principal amount of definitive Securities of the same series of authorized denominations and of like tenor as the portion of such temporary global Security to
be exchanged. The definitive Securities to be delivered in exchange for any such temporary global Security shall be in bearer form, registered form, definitive global form or any combination thereof, as specified as contemplated by
Section 2.02, and, if any combination thereof is so specified, as requested by the beneficial owner thereof. 
 SECTION
3.04 Registration, Registration of Transfer and Exchange. (a) The Issuers shall cause to be kept at an office or agency to be maintained by the Issuers in accordance with Section 10.02 a register (being the combined register of the
Security Registrar and all additional transfer agents designated pursuant to Section 10.02 for the purpose of registration of transfer of Securities and sometimes collectively referred to as the “Security Register”) in which,
subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Issuers shall provide for the registration of Securities and the registration of transfers of Securities. The Bank of New York Mellon is hereby appointed the initial Security Registrar,
with the Security Register initially to be kept at 101 Barclay Street, Floor 8 West, New York, New York 10286. At all reasonable times each register maintained by the Security Registrar and any additional transfer agents shall be open for inspection
by the Trustee. 
 (b) Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Security of any series at the office or agency of
the Issuers maintained pursuant to Section 10.02 for such purpose in a Place of Payment for such series, the Issuers shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and make available for delivery, in the name of the designated transferee or
transferees, one or more new Securities of the same series of any authorized denominations and of a like aggregate principal amount and tenor. 
 (c) At the option of the Holder, Securities of any series may be exchanged for other Securities of the same series of any authorized denominations and of a like aggregate principal amount and tenor,
upon surrender of the Securities to be exchanged at any such office or agency. Whenever any Securities are so surrendered for exchange the Issuers shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and make available for delivery, the Securities
which the Holder making the exchange is entitled to receive. 
 (d) All Securities issued upon any registration of transfer
or exchange of Securities shall be the valid obligations of the Issuers, evidencing the same debt, and entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture, as the Securities surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange. 

(e) Every Security presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or for exchange shall (if so required by the Issuers or the
Trustee or any transfer agent) be duly endorsed, or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Issuers and the Security Registrar or any transfer agent duly executed, by the Holder thereof or his attorney duly
authorized in writing. 
 (f) No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange of Securities,
but the Issuers may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any registration of transfer or exchange of Securities, other than exchanges pursuant to Section 3.03,
9.06 or 11.07 not involving any transfer. 

  
 24 









 (g) The Issuers shall not be required (i) to issue, register the transfer of or
exchange Securities of any series during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 Business Days before any selection of Securities of that series to be redeemed and ending at the close of business on the day of the mailing of the relevant
notice of redemption, or (ii) to register the transfer of or exchange any Security so selected for redemption, in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of any Security being redeemed in part. 

(h) The Trustee shall have no obligation or duty to monitor, determine or inquire as to compliance with any restrictions on transfer
imposed under this Indenture or under applicable law with respect to any transfer of any interest in any Security (including any transfers between or among beneficial owners of interests in any global Security) other than to require delivery of such
certificates and other documentation or evidence as are expressly required by, and to do so if and when expressly required by the terms of, this Indenture, and to examine the same to determine substantial compliance as to form with the express
requirements hereof. 
 SECTION 3.05 Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost and Stolen Securities. (a) If any mutilated Security
is surrendered to the Trustee, the Issuers shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and make available for delivery in exchange therefor a new Security of the same series and of like tenor and principal amount and bearing a number not
contemporaneously outstanding. 
 (b) If there shall be delivered to the Issuers and the Trustee (i) evidence to their
satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Security and (ii) such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them and any agent of either of them harmless, then, in the absence of notice to the Issuers or the
Trustee that such Security has been acquired by a protected purchaser, the Issuers shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and make available for delivery, in lieu of any such destroyed, lost or stolen Security, a new Security of the same
series and of like tenor and principal amount and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding. 
 (c) In case any
such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Security has become or is about to become due and payable, the Issuers in its discretion may, instead of issuing a new Security, pay such Security. 

(d) Upon the issuance of any new Security under this Section, the Issuers may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any
tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Trustee) connected therewith. 
 (e) Every new Security of any series issued pursuant to this Section in lieu of any mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Security shall constitute an original additional contractual obligation of the
Issuers, whether or not the mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Security shall be at any time enforceable by anyone, and shall be entitled to all the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with any and all other Securities of that
series duly issued hereunder. 

  
 25 









 (f) The provisions of this Section are exclusive and shall preclude (to the extent
lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated. destroyed, lost or stolen Securities. 
 SECTION 3.06 Payment of Interest; Interest Rights Preserved. (a) Unless otherwise provided as contemplated by Section 2.02 with respect to any series of Securities, interest on any
Security which is payable, and is punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date shall be paid to the Person in whose name that Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on the
Regular Record Date for such interest. 
 (b) Any interest on any Security of any series which is payable, but is not
punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date (herein called “Defaulted Interest”) shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on the relevant Regular Record Date by virtue of having been such Holder, and
such Defaulted Interest may be paid by the Issuers, at its election in each case, as provided in clause (i) or (ii) below: 
 (i) The Issuers may elect to make payment of any Defaulted Interest to the Persons in whose names the Securities of such series (or their respective Predecessor Securities) are registered at the close of
business on a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest, which shall be fixed in the following manner. The Issuers shall notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of Defaulted Interest proposed to be paid on each Security of
such series and the date of the proposed payment, and at the same time the Issuers shall deposit with the Trustee an amount of money equal to the aggregate amount proposed to be paid in respect of such Defaulted Interest or shall make arrangements
satisfactory to the Trustee for such deposit prior to the date of the proposed payment, such money when deposited to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled to such Defaulted Interest as in this Clause provided. Thereupon the
Trustee shall fix a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest which shall be not more than 15 days and not less than 10 days prior to the date of the proposed payment and not less than 10 days after the receipt by the
Trustee of the notice of the proposed payment. The Trustee shall promptly notify the Issuers of such Special Record Date and, in the name and at the expense of the Issuers, shall cause notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and
the Special Record Date therefor to be mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to each Holder of Securities of such series at his address as it appears in the Security Register, not less than 10 days prior to such Special Record Date. Notice of
the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor having been so mailed, such Defaulted Interest shall be paid to the Persons in whose names the Securities of such series (or their respective Predecessor
Securities) are registered at the close of business on such Special Record Date and shall no longer be payable pursuant to the following clause (ii). 
 (ii) The Issuers may make payment of any Defaulted Interest on the Securities of any series in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on which such
Securities may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, if, after notice given by the Issuers to the Trustee of the proposed payment pursuant to this clause, such manner of payment shall be deemed practicable by the
Trustee. 

  
 26 









 Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section and Section 3.04, each Security
delivered under this Indenture upon registration of transfer of or in exchange for or in lieu of any other Security shall carry the rights to interest accrued and unpaid, and to accrue, which were carried by such other Security. 

SECTION 3.07 Persons Deemed Owners. Prior to due presentment of a Security for registration of transfer, the Issuers, the Trustee
and any agent of the Issuers or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name such Security is registered as the owner of such Security for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of (and premium, if any) and (subject to Sections 3.04,

Issuers or the Trustee shall be affected by notice to the contrary. 
 SECTION 3.08 Cancellation. All Securities
surrendered for payment, redemption, registration of transfer or exchange or for credit against any sinking fund payment shall, if surrendered to any Person other than the Trustee, be delivered to the Trustee. All Securities so delivered shall be
promptly canceled by the Trustee. The Issuers may at any time deliver to the Trustee for cancellation any Securities previously authenticated and delivered hereunder which the Issuers may have acquired in any manner whatsoever, and may deliver to
the Trustee (or to any other Person for delivery to the Trustee) for cancellation any Securities previously authenticated hereunder which the Issuers have not issued and sold, and all Securities so delivered to the Trustee shall be promptly canceled
by the Trustee. No Securities shall be authenticated in lieu of or in exchange for any Securities canceled as provided in this Section, except as expressly permitted by this Indenture. All canceled Securities held by the Trustee shall be disposed of
in a manner selected by the Trustee unless otherwise directed by an Issuers’ Order; provided, however, that the Trustee may, but shall not be required to, destroy such canceled Securities. 

SECTION 3.09 Computation of Interest. Except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 2.02 for Securities of any
series, interest on the Securities of each series shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.

contemplated by Section 2.02, then, notwithstanding clause (a)(viii) of Section 2.02 and the provisions of Section 3.01, such Security shall represent such of the Outstanding Securities of such series as shall be specified therein and
may provide that it shall represent the aggregate amount of Outstanding Securities from time to time endorsed thereon and that the aggregate amount of Outstanding Securities represented thereby may from time to time be reduced or increased to
reflect exchanges. Any endorsement of a Security in global form to reflect the amount, or any increase or decrease in the amount, of Outstanding Securities represented thereby shall be made by the Trustee in such manner and upon instructions given
by such Person or Persons as shall be specified therein or in the Issuers’ Order to be delivered to the Trustee pursuant to Section 3.02 or Section 3.03. Subject to the provisions of Section 3.02 and, if applicable,
Section 3.03, the Trustee shall deliver and redeliver any Security in definitive global bearer form in the manner and upon written instructions given by the Person or Persons specified therein or in the applicable Issuers’ Order. If

comply with Section 1.02 and need not be accompanied by an Opinion of Counsel. 
 (b) The provisions of the last
sentence of Section 3.02(e) shall apply to any Security represented by a Security in global form if such Security was never issued and sold by the Issuers and the Issuers deliver to the Trustee the Security in global form together with written
instructions (which need not comply with Section 1.02 and need not be accompanied by an Opinion of Counsel) with regard to the reduction in the principal amount of Securities represented thereby, together with the written statement contemplated
by the last sentence of Section 3.02(e). 
 (c) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 3.06, unless otherwise
specified as contemplated by Section 2.02, payment of principal of and any premium and any interest on any Security in definitive global form shall be made to the Person or Persons specified therein.

agent of the Issuers may, and the Trustee and any agent of the Trustee, at the direction of the Issuers, may treat a Person as the Holder of such principal amount of Outstanding Securities represented by a definitive global Security as shall be
specified in a written statement of the Holder of such definitive global Security or, in the case of a definitive global Security in bearer form, of Euroclear or Clearstream, Luxembourg which is produced to the Trustee by such Person;
provided, however, that none of the Issuers, the Trustee, the Security Registrar or any Paying Agent shall have any responsibility or liability for any aspect of the records relating to or payments made on account of beneficial
ownership interests in a Security in global form or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records relating to such beneficial ownership interests. 
 SECTION 3.11 CUSIP Numbers. 
 The Issuers in issuing the Securities may use
“CUSIP” numbers (if then generally in use), and, if so, the Trustee shall use “CUSIP” numbers in notices of redemption as a convenience to Holders; provided, that any such notice may state that no representation is made as
to the correctness of such numbers either as printed on the Securities or as contained in any notice of a redemption and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Securities, and any such redemption shall
not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers. The Issuers will promptly notify the Trustee in writing of any change in the “CUSIP” numbers.

the Trustee, at the request and expense of the Issuers, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture with respect to such series, when: 

(a) Either: 
 (i) all Securities that have been authenticated, except lost, stolen or destroyed Securities that have been replaced or paid and Securities for whose payment money has been deposited in trust and

cancellation have become due and payable by reason of the mailing of a notice of redemption or otherwise or will become due and payable within one year, or are to be called for redemption within one year under arrangements reasonably satisfactory to
the Trustee for the giving of notice of redemption by the Trustee in the name, and at the expense, of the Issuers, and the Issuers have irrevocably deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee as trust funds in trust solely for the benefit
of the Holders, cash in U.S. dollars, non-callable Government Securities, or a combination of cash in U.S. dollars and non-callable Government Securities, in amounts as will be sufficient, without consideration of any reinvestment of interest, to

(b) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing on the date of the deposit (other than a Default or Event of
Default resulting from the borrowing of funds to be applied to such deposit) and the deposit will not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, any other instrument to which the Issuers are a party or by which the Issuers
are bound; 
 (c) the Issuers have paid or caused to be paid all sums payable by them under this Indenture;

the Trustee under Section 6.07, the obligations of the Trustee to any Authenticating Agent under Section 6.13 and, if money shall have been deposited with the Trustee pursuant to subclause (ii) of clause (a) of this Section, the

be held in trust and applied by it, in accordance with the provisions of the Securities and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including Suburban Propane acting as its own Paying Agent) as the Trustee may
determine, to the Persons entitled thereto, of the principal (and premium, if any) and interest for whose payment such money has been deposited with the Trustee; but such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by
law. 
 If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any money or Government Securities in accordance with
Section 4.01 hereof by reason of any legal proceeding or by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, the Issuers’ and any Guarantor’s
obligations under this Indenture and the Securities shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 5.01 hereof; provided that if Suburban Propane has made any payment of principal of, premium, if
any, or interest on any Securities because of the reinstatement of its obligations, Suburban Propane shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Securities to receive such payment from the money or Government Securities held by the
Trustee or Paying Agent.

Section 4.01 shall be held in trust and applied by it, in accordance with the provisions of the Securities and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Issuers acting as their own Paying Agent)
as the Trustee may determine, to the Persons entitled thereto, of the principal (and premium, if any) and interest, if any, for whose payment such money has been deposited with the Trustee.

amount of such Indebtedness, together with the principal amount of any other such Indebtedness in default for failure to pay principal at final stated maturity or which has been accelerated, aggregates $15.0 million or more at any time;

 (f) a final judgment or judgments, which is or are non-appealable and non-reviewable or which has or have not been

(g) Suburban Propane, Finance Corp. or any Significant Subsidiary of Suburban Propane pursuant to or within the meaning of

SECTION 5.02 Acceleration. (a) In the case of an Event of Default specified in clause (g) or (h) of
Section 5.01 hereof, with respect to Suburban Propane, Finance Corp. or any Significant Subsidiary of Suburban Propane, all outstanding Securities will become due and 

  
 31 









 
payable immediately without further action or notice. If any other Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the Securities of a
series may declare all the Securities of such series to be due and payable immediately. Upon any such declaration, the Securities of such series shall become due and payable immediately. 

(b) The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Securities of a series by written notice to the
Trustee may, on behalf of all the Holders, rescind an acceleration or waive any existing Default or Event of Default and its consequences: 
 (i) if the rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree; 
 (ii) if all existing Events of Default (except nonpayment of principal, interest or premium, if any, that has become due solely because of the acceleration) have been cured or waived; 

(iii) to the extent the payment of such interested is lawful, if interest on overdue installments of interest and overdue
principal that has become due otherwise than by such declaration of acceleration has been paid; 
 (iv) if the
Issuers have paid the Trustee its reasonable compensation and reimbursed the Trustee for its expenses, disbursements and advances; and 
 (v) in the event of the cure or waiver of an Event of Default of the type described in clause (g) or (h) of Section 5.01 hereof, if the Trustee shall have received an Officers’
Certificate stating that such Event of Default has been cured or waived. 
 No such rescission shall affect any subsequent
Default or impair any right consequent thereto. 
 SECTION 5.03 Other Remedies. 

If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may pursue any available remedy to collect the payment of principal, premium
and interest on the Securities of any series or to enforce the performance of any provision of the Securities of any series or this Indenture. 
 The Trustee may maintain a proceeding even if it does not possess any of the Securities of a series or does not produce any of them in the proceeding. A delay or omission by the Trustee or any Holder of a
Security in exercising any right or remedy accruing upon an Event of Default shall not impair the right or remedy or constitute a waiver of or acquiescence in the Event of Default. All remedies are cumulative to the extent permitted by law.

 SECTION 5.04 Waiver of Past Defaults. 
 Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Securities of a series by notice to the Trustee may, on behalf of the Holders of all of the Securities of such
series, waive an existing Default or Event of Default and its consequences hereunder, except a continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of the principal of, premium or interest on, the Securities of such series (including in connection
with an offer to 

  
 32 









 
purchase); provided, however, that the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Securities of a series may rescind an acceleration and its
consequences, including any related payment default that resulted from such acceleration. Upon any such waiver, such Default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured for every purpose of
this Indenture; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or impair any right consequent thereon. 

SECTION 5.05 Control by Majority. 
 Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Securities of a series may direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for exercising any remedy available to the
Trustee or exercising any trust or power conferred on it. However, the Trustee may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or this Indenture that the Trustee determines may be unduly prejudicial to the rights of other Holders of
Securities of a series or that may involve the Trustee in personal liability. 
 SECTION 5.06 Limitation on Suits.

 A Holder may pursue a remedy with respect to this Indenture or the Securities of a series only if: 

(a) the Holder of a Security of a series gives to the Trustee written notice that an Event of Default is continuing; 

(b) Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the then outstanding Securities of a series make a written request to the Trustee
to pursue the remedy; 
 (c) such Holder or Holders offer and, if requested, provide to the Trustee security or indemnity
satisfactory to the Trustee against any loss, liability or expense; 
 (d) the Trustee has not complied with such request
within 60 days after receipt thereof and the offer of security or indemnity; and 
 (e) the Holders of a majority in
aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Securities of a series have not given the Trustee a direction inconsistent with such request during such 60-day period. 
 A Holder of a Security of a series may not use this Indenture to prejudice the rights of another Holder of a Security or to obtain a preference or priority over another Holder of a Security of such
series. 
 SECTION 5.07 Rights of Holders of Securities to Receive Payment. 

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, the right of any Holder of a Security of a series to receive payment of principal,
premium and interest on the Security of such series, on or after the respective due dates expressed in the Security of such series (including in connection with an offer to purchase), or to bring suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or
after such respective dates, shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of such Holder. 

  
 33 









 SECTION 5.08 Collection Suit by Trustee. 

If an Event of Default specified in Section 5.01(a) or (b) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee is authorized to recover
judgment in its own name and as trustee of an express trust against Suburban Propane for the whole amount of principal of, premium and interest remaining unpaid on the Securities and interest on overdue principal and, to the extent lawful, interest
and such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel. 

SECTION 5.09 Trustee May File Proofs of Claim. 
 The Trustee is authorized to file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee (including any claim for the reasonable
compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel) and the Holders of the Securities of a series allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to Suburban Propane (or any other obligor upon the Securities of a
series), its creditors or its property and shall be entitled and empowered to collect, receive and distribute any money or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and any custodian in any such judicial proceeding is hereby
authorized by each Holder to make such payments to the Trustee, and in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due to it for the reasonable compensation,
expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 6.07 hereof. To the extent that the payment of any such compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the
Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 6.07 hereof out of the estate in any such proceeding, shall be denied for any reason, payment of the same shall be secured by a Lien on, and shall be paid out
of, any and all distributions, dividends, money, securities and other properties that the Holders may be entitled to receive in such proceeding whether in liquidation or under any plan of reorganization or arrangement or otherwise. Nothing herein
contained shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Securities or the rights of any Holder, or to
authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding. 
 SECTION 5.10 Priorities.

 If the Trustee collects any money pursuant to this Article V, it shall pay out the money in the following order:

 First: to the Trustee, its agents and attorneys for amounts due under Section 6.07 hereof, including
payment of all compensation, expenses and liabilities incurred, and all advances made, by the Trustee and the costs and expenses of collection; 

  
 34 









 Second: to Holders of Securities of a series for amounts due and unpaid on
the Securities of such series for principal, premium and interest, ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on the Securities of such series for principal, premium and interest, respectively; and

 Third: to Suburban Propane or to such party as a court of competent jurisdiction shall direct. 

The Trustee may fix a record date and payment date for any payment to Holders of Securities of a series pursuant to this
Section 5.10. 
 SECTION 5.11 Undertaking for Costs. 

In any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken or
omitted by it as a Trustee, a court in its discretion may require the filing by any party litigant in the suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of the suit, and the court in its discretion may assess reasonable costs, including reasonable
attorneys’ fees and expenses, against any party litigant in the suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by the party litigant. This Section 5.11 does not apply to a suit by the Trustee, a suit by
a Holder of a Security of a series pursuant to Section 5.07 hereof, or a suit by Holders of more than 10% in principal amount of the then outstanding Securities of a series.

 35 









 (c) No provision of this Indenture shall be construed to relieve the Trustee from

liability is not reasonably assured to it.

payment of the principal of (or premium, if any, on) or interest on any Security of such series or in the payment of any sinking fund installment with respect to Securities of such series, the Trustee shall be protected in withholding such notice if

Securities of such series; provided, further, that in the case of any default of the character specified in Section 5.01(d) with respect to Securities of such series, no such notice to Holders shall be given until at least

 (f) the
Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order, bond, debenture, note, coupon, other evidence

Compensation and Reimbursement. (a) Each of the Issuers agrees: 
 (i) to pay to the Trustee from

the compensation of a trustee of an express trust); 
 (ii) except as otherwise expressly provided herein, to
reimburse the Trustee in Dollars upon its request for all reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances incurred or made by the Trustee in accordance with any provision of this Indenture (including the reasonable compensation and the expenses and

 (iii) to indemnify each of the Trustee and any predecessor Trustee and their agents in Dollars for, and to hold it harmless against, any and all loss, liability, damage, claim or expense, including taxes

and Section 5.01(g), the expenses (including the reasonable charges and expenses of its counsel) and the compensation for the services are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any applicable Federal or state bankruptcy,
insolvency or other similar law. The provisions of this Section shall survive the termination of this Indenture. 
 SECTION 6.08
Disqualification; Conflicting Interests. (a) If the Trustee has or shall acquire any conflicting interest, as defined in Section 310(b) of the Trust Indenture Act, with respect to the Securities of any series, it shall, within
90 days after ascertaining that it has such conflicting interest, either eliminate such conflicting interest or resign with respect to the Securities of that series in the manner and with the effect provided by, and subject to the provisions
of, Section 310(b) of the Trust Indenture Act and this Indenture; provided, however, that there shall be excluded from the operation of Section 310(b)(1) of the Trust Indenture Act any indenture or indentures under which
other securities or certificates of interest or participation in other securities of the Issuers are outstanding if the requirements for such exclusion set forth in Section 310(b)(1) of the Trust Indenture Act are met. 

(b) In the event that the Trustee shall fail to comply with the provisions of the preceding sentence with respect to the Securities

 (d) To the extent permitted by the Trust

 SECTION 6.09 Corporate Trustee Required; Eligibility. There shall at all times be a Trustee for each series of
Securities hereunder which shall be either (1) a corporation organized and doing business under the laws of the United States of America, any State thereof or the District of Columbia, which is authorized under such laws to exercise corporate
trust powers and is subject to supervision or examination by Federal or State authority and having its Corporate 

  
 39 









 
Trust Office located in The City of New York or (2) a corporation or other Person organized and doing business under the laws of a foreign government that is permitted to act as Trustee
pursuant to a rule, regulation or order of the Commission, which is authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trust powers and is subject to supervision or examination by authority of such foreign government or a political subdivision thereof
substantially equivalent to supervision or examination applicable to United States institutional trustees; in either case having a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000. If such corporation or Person publishes reports of condition at
least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of said supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section, the combined capital and surplus of such corporation or Person shall be deemed to be its combined capital and
surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. Neither the Issuers nor any Person directly or indirectly controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the Issuers shall serve as trustee for the Securities of any
series issued hereunder. If at any time the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, it shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect hereinafter specified in this Article. 

SECTION 6.10 Resignation and Removal; Appointment of Successor. (a) No resignation or removal of the Trustee and no
appointment of a successor Trustee pursuant to this Article shall become effective until the acceptance of appointment by the successor Trustee in accordance with the applicable requirements of Section 6.11. 

(b) The Trustee may resign at any time with respect to the Securities of one or more series by giving written notice thereof to the
Issuers. If the instrument of acceptance by a successor Trustee required by Section 6.11 shall not have been delivered to the resigning Trustee within 30 days after the giving of such notice of resignation, the resigning Trustee, at the expense
of the Issuers, may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series. 
 (c) The Trustee may be removed at any time with respect to the Securities of any series by Act of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series, delivered
to the Trustee and to the Issuers. 
 (d) If at any time: 

(i) the Trustee shall fail to comply with Section 6.08 after written request therefor by the Issuers or by any Holder
who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security of a series as to which the Trustee has a conflicting interest for at least six months, or 
 (ii) the Trustee for a series shall cease to be eligible under Section 6.09 and shall fail to resign after written request therefor by the Issuers or by any Holder of Securities of such series, or

 (iii) the Trustee shall become incapable of acting or shall be adjudged a bankrupt or insolvent or a receiver
of the Trustee or of its property shall be appointed or any public officer shall take charge or control of the Trustee or of its property or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation, 

  
 40 









 then, in any such case, (i) the Issuers by a Board Resolution may remove the Trustee with respect to
all Securities, or (ii) subject to Section 5.11, any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security for at least six months (and, in the case of clause (i) above, who is a holder of a Security of a series as to which the Trustee
has a conflicting interest) may, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee with respect to all Securities and the appointment of a successor Trustee or
Trustees. 
 (e) If the Trustee shall resign, be removed or become incapable of acting, or if a vacancy shall occur in the
office of the Trustee for any cause, with respect to the Securities of one or more series, the Issuers, by a Board Resolution, shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee or Trustees with respect to the Securities of that or those series (it being
understood that any such successor Trustee may be appointed with respect to the Securities of one or more of or all such series and that at any time there shall be only one Trustee with respect to the Securities of any particular series) and such
successor Trustee or Trustees shall comply with the applicable requirements of Section 6.11. If, within one year after such resignation, removal or incapability, or the occurrence of such vacancy, a successor Trustee with respect to the
Securities of any series shall be appointed by Act of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series delivered to the Issuers and the retiring Trustee, the successor Trustee so appointed shall, forthwith
upon its acceptance of such appointment in accordance with the applicable requirements of Section 6.11, become the successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series and to that extent supersede the successor Trustee appointed by
the Issuers. If no successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series shall have been so appointed by the Issuers or the Holders and accepted appointment in the manner required by Section 6.11, the Trustee being removed, at the
expense of the Issuers, or any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security of such series for at least six months, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment
of a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series. 
 (f) The Issuers shall give notice of each
resignation and each removal of the Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series and each appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series by giving notice of such event to all Holders of Securities of such
series as provided by Section 1.06. Each notice shall include the name of the successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series and the address of its Corporate Trust Office. 

SECTION 6.11 Acceptance of Appointment by Successor. (a) In case of the appointment hereunder of a successor Trustee with
respect to all Securities, every such successor Trustee so appointed shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Issuers and to the retiring Trustee an instrument accepting such appointment, and thereupon the resignation or removal of the retiring
Trustee shall become effective and such successor Trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee; but, on the request of the Issuers or the successor
Trustee, such retiring Trustee shall, upon payment of its charges, execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such successor Trustee all the rights, powers and trusts of the retiring Trustee and shall duly assign, transfer and deliver to such
successor Trustee all property and money held by such retiring Trustee hereunder. 

  
 41 









 (b) In case of the appointment hereunder of a successor Trustee with respect to the
Securities of one or more (but not all) series, the Issuers, the retiring Trustee and each successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of one or more series shall execute and deliver an indenture supplemental hereto wherein each successor
Trustee shall accept such appointment and which (1) shall contain such provisions as shall be necessary or desirable to transfer and confirm to, and to vest in, each successor Trustee all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring
Trustee with respect to the Securities of that or those series to which the appointment of such successor Trustee relates, (2) if the retiring Trustee is not retiring with respect to all Securities, shall contain such provisions as shall be
deemed necessary or desirable to confirm that all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee with respect to the Securities of that or those series as to which the retiring Trustee is not retiring shall continue to be vested in
the retiring Trustee, and (3) shall add to or change any of the provisions of this Indenture as shall be necessary to provide for or facilitate the administration of the trusts hereunder by more than one Trustee, it being understood that
nothing herein or in such supplemental indenture shall constitute such Trustees co-trustees of the same trust and that each such Trustee shall be trustee of a trust or trusts hereunder separate and apart from any trust or trusts hereunder
administered by any other such Trustee; and upon the execution and delivery of such supplemental indenture, the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective to the extent provided therein and each such successor Trustee,
without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee with respect to the Securities of that or those series to which the appointment of such successor Trustee
relates; but, on request of the Issuers or any successor Trustee, such retiring Trustee shall duly assign, transfer and deliver to such successor Trustee all property and money held by such retiring Trustee hereunder with respect to the Securities
of that or those series to which the appointment of such successor Trustee relates. 
 (c) Upon request of any such
successor Trustee, the Issuers shall execute any and all instruments for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to such successor Trustee all such rights, powers and trusts referred to in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section,
as the case may be. 
 (d) No successor Trustee shall accept its appointment unless at the time of such acceptance such
successor Trustee shall be qualified and eligible under this Article. 
 SECTION 6.12 Merger, Conversion, Consolidation or
Succession to Business. Any corporation into which the Trustee may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Trustee shall be a party, or
any corporation succeeding to all or substantially all the corporate trust business of the Trustee, shall be the successor of the Trustee hereunder, provided that such corporation shall be otherwise qualified and eligible under this Article, without
the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto. In case any Securities shall have been authenticated, but not delivered, by the Trustee then in office, any successor by merger, conversion or
consolidation to such authenticating Trustee may adopt such authentication and deliver the Securities so authenticated with the same effect as if such successor Trustee had itself authenticated such Securities.

 SECTION 6.13 Appointment of Authenticating Agent. (a) The Issuers may appoint an
Authenticating Agent or Agents with respect to one or more series of Securities which shall be authorized to act on behalf of the Trustee to authenticate Securities of such series issued upon original issue or upon exchange, registration of transfer
or partial redemption thereof or pursuant to Section 3.05, and Securities so authenticated shall be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture and shall be valid and obligatory for all purposes as if authenticated by the Trustee hereunder.
Wherever reference is made in this Indenture to the authentication and delivery of Securities by the Trustee or the Trustee’s certificate of authentication, such reference shall be deemed to include authentication and delivery on behalf of the
Trustee by an Authenticating Agent and a certificate of authentication executed on behalf of the Trustee by an Authenticating Agent. Each Authenticating Agent shall be acceptable to the Trustee and shall at all times be a corporation having a
combined capital and surplus of not less than the equivalent of $50,000,000 and subject to supervision or examination by Federal, state or District of Columbia authority or the equivalent foreign authority, in the case of an Authenticating Agent who
is not organized and doing business under the laws of the United States of America, any state thereof or the District of Columbia. If such Authenticating Agent publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements
of said supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section, the combined capital and surplus of such Authenticating Agent shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of
condition so published. If at any time an Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, such Authenticating Agent shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in this
Section. 
 (b) Any corporation into which an Authenticating Agent may be merged or converted or with which it may be
consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which such Authenticating Agent shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to the corporate agency or corporate trust business of such Authenticating
Agent, shall continue to be an Authenticating Agent; provided such corporation shall be otherwise eligible under this Section, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of the Trustee or such Authenticating
Agent. 
 (c) An Authenticating Agent may resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to the Trustee and to the
Issuers. The Issuers may at any time terminate the agency of an Authenticating Agent by giving written notice thereof to such Authenticating Agent and to the Trustee. Upon receiving such a notice of resignation or upon such a termination, or in case
at any time such Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, the Issuers may appoint a successor Authenticating Agent which shall be acceptable to the Trustee and shall mail, or cause to be
mailed, written notice of such appointment by first-class mail, postage prepaid, to all Holders of Securities, if any, of the series with respect to which such Authenticating Agent will serve, as their names and addresses appear in the Security
Register. Any successor Authenticating Agent upon acceptance of its appointment hereunder shall become vested with all the rights, powers and duties of its predecessor hereunder, with like effect as if originally named as an Authenticating Agent. No
successor Authenticating Agent shall be appointed unless eligible under the provisions of this Section. 

  
 43 









 ++(d) The Issuers agree to pay to each Authenticating Agent from time to time
reasonable compensation for its services under this Section. 
 (e) If an appointment with respect to one or more series is
made pursuant to this Section, the Securities of such series may have endorsed thereon, in addition to the Trustee’s certificate of authentication, an alternative certificate of authentication in the following form: 

This is one of the Securities of the series designated herein issued under the within-mentioned Indenture.

		 	As Authenticating Agent
		
	By:	 	  

		 	Authorized [Officer] [Signatory]

 (f) If all the Securities of a series may not be originally issued at one time, and if the Trustee
does not have an office capable of authenticating Securities upon original issuance located in a Place of Payment or other place where the Issuers wish to have Securities of such series authenticated upon original issuance, the Issuers shall appoint
in accordance with this Section an Authenticating Agent (which may be an Affiliate of the Issuers if eligible to be appointed as an Authenticating Agent hereunder) having an office in such Place of Payment or other place designated by the Issuers
with respect to such series of Securities. 
 SECTION 6.14 Preferential Collection of Claims. 

If and when the Trustee shall be or become a creditor of the Issuers (or any other obligor upon the Securities), the Trustee shall be
subject to the provisions of the Trust Indenture Act regarding the collection of claims against the Issuers (or any such other obligor). 
 ARTICLE VII  
 Holders’ Lists and Reports by Trustee and
the Issuers 
 SECTION 7.01 Issuers to Furnish Trustee Names and Addresses of Holders. The Issuers will furnish
or cause to be furnished to the Trustee: 
 (a) semiannually, not later than 15 days after each Regular Record Date, a
list in such form as the Trustee may reasonably require, of the names and addresses of the Holders of each series of Securities as of the Regular Record Date; and 
 (b) at such other times as the Trustee may request in writing, within 30 days after the receipt by the Issuers of any such request, a list of similar form and content, such list to be dated as
of a date not more than 15 days prior to the time such list is furnished; notwithstanding the foregoing SubSections (a) and (b), at such times as the Trustee is the Security Registrar and Paying Agent with respect to a particular series of
Securities, no such list shall be required to be furnished in respect of such series. 

  
 44 









 SECTION 7.02 Preservation of Information; Communications to Holders. (a) The
Trustee shall preserve, in as current a form as is reasonably practicable, the names and addresses of Holders of each series contained in the most recent list furnished to the Trustee as provided in Section 7.01 and the names and addresses of
Holders of each series received by the Trustee in any capacity as Security Registrar or Paying Agent. The Trustee may destroy any list furnished to it as provided in Section 7.01 upon receipt of a new list so furnished. 

(b) If three or more Holders of Securities of any series (herein referred to as “applicants”) apply in writing to
the Trustee, and furnish to the Trustee reasonable proof that each such applicant has owned a Security of such series for a period of at least six months preceding the date of such application, and such application states that the applicants desire
to communicate with other Holders of Securities of such series with respect to their rights under this Indenture or under such Securities and is accompanied by a copy of the form of proxy or other communication which such applicants propose to
transmit, then the Trustee shall, within five business days after the receipt of such application, at its election, either: 
 (i) afford such applicants access to the information preserved at the time by the Trustee in accordance with Section 7.02(a), or 

(ii) inform such applicants as to the approximate number of Holders of Securities of such series whose names and addresses
appear in the information preserved at the time by the Trustee in accordance with Section 7.02(a), and as to the approximate cost of mailing to such Holders the form of proxy or other communication, if any, specified in such application.

 If the Trustee shall elect not to afford such applicants access to such information, the Trustee shall, upon the written
request of such applicants, mail to each Holder of Securities of such series whose name and address appear in the information preserved at the time by the Trustee in accordance with Section 7.02(a) a copy of the form of proxy or other
communication which is specified in such request, with reasonable promptness after a tender to the Trustee of the material to be mailed and of payment, or provision for the payment, of the reasonable expenses of mailing, unless within five days
after such tender the Trustee shall mail to such applicants and file with the Commission, together with a copy of the material to be mailed, a written statement to the effect that, in the opinion of the Trustee, such mailing would be contrary to the
best interest of the Holders of such series or would be in violation of applicable law. Such written statement shall specify the basis of such opinion. If the Commission, after opportunity for a hearing upon the objections specified in the written
statement so filed, shall enter an order refusing to sustain any of such objections or if, after the entry of an order sustaining one or more of such objections, the Commission shall find, after notice and opportunity for hearing, that all the
objections so sustained have been met and shall enter an order so declaring, the Trustee shall mail copies of such material to all such Holders with reasonable promptness after the entry of such order and the renewal of such tender; otherwise the
Trustee shall be relieved of any obligation or duty to such applicants respecting their application. 

  
 45 









 (c) Every Holder of Securities, by receiving and holding the same, agrees with the
Issuers and the Trustee that neither the Issuers nor the Trustee nor any agent of either of them shall be held accountable by reason of the disclosure of any such information as to the names and addresses of the Holders in accordance with
Section 7.02(b), regardless of the source from which such information was derived, and that the Trustee shall not be held accountable by reason of mailing any material pursuant to a request made under Section 7.02(b). 

SECTION 7.03 Reports by Trustee. (a) Within 60 days after May 15 of each year commencing with the May 15
occurring after the initial issuance of Securities hereunder, the Trustee shall transmit by mail to the Holders of Securities, as provided in SubSection (c) of this Section, a brief report dated as of such May 15 in accordance with and to
the extent required under Section 313 of the Trust Indenture Act. 
 (b) A copy of each such report shall, at the time
of such transmission to Holders, be filed by the Trustee with each United States stock exchange upon which any Securities are listed, with the Commission and with the Issuers. 
 (c) Reports pursuant to Section 7.03(a) shall be transmitted by mail (i) to all Holders, as their names and addresses appear in the Security Register, (ii) to all Holders as have,
within two years preceding such transmission, filed their names and addresses with the Trustee for such purpose, and (iii) to all Holders whose names and addresses have been furnished or received by the Trustee pursuant to Sections 7.01
and 7.02. 
 SECTION 7.04 Reports by Issuers. The Issuers shall: 

(i) file with the Trustee, within 15 days after the Issuers are required to file the same with the Commission, copies
of the annual reports and of the information, documents and other reports (or copies of such portions of any of the foregoing as the Commission may from time to time by rules and regulations prescribe) which the Issuers may be required to file with
the Commission pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act; or, if the Issuers are not required to file information, documents or reports pursuant to either of said Sections, then it shall file with the Trustee and the

respect of a security listed and registered on a national securities exchange as may be prescribed from time to time in such rules and regulations; 
 (ii) file with the Trustee and the Commission, in accordance with rules and regulations prescribed from time to time by the Commission, such additional information, documents and reports with respect to
compliance by the Issuers with the conditions and covenants of this Indenture as may be required from time to time in such rules and regulations; 
 (iii) transmit by mail to all Holders of Securities, in the manner and to the extent provided in Section 7.03(c) with respect to reports to be transmitted pursuant to Section 7.03(a), within
30 days after the filing thereof with the Trustee, such summaries 

  
 46 









 
of any information, documents and reports required to be filed by the Issuers pursuant to paragraph (i) of (ii) of this Section as may be required by rules and regulations prescribed
from time to time by the Commission; and 
 (iv) promptly notify the Trustee when any Securities are listed on
any stock exchange and any delisting thereof. 
 Delivery of such reports, information and documents to the Trustee pursuant to
this Section 7.04 is for informational purposes only and the Trustee’s receipt of such shall not constitute constructive notice of any information contained therein or determinable from information contained therein, including the
Issuers’ compliance with any of their covenants hereunder (as to which the Trustee is entitled to rely exclusively on Officers’ Certificates).

of such consolidation, merger, sale, conveyance or other disposition, the provisions of this Indenture referring to “Suburban Propane,” “Finance Corp.” or the “Issuers,” as the case may be, shall refer to or include
instead the successor Person and not Suburban Propane or Finance Corp., as the case may be), and may exercise every right and power of such Issuer under this Indenture with the same effect as if such successor Person had been named as such Issuer
herein and thereafter the predecessor Person shall be relieved of all obligations and covenants under this Indenture and the Securities. 
 ARTICLE IX  
 Supplemental Indentures 

SECTION 9.01 Supplemental Indentures without Consent of Holders. Without the consent of any Holders, the Issuers, when authorized

 (vi) to establish the form or terms of Securities of any series as permitted by Sections 2.02; 

  
 49 









 (vii) to evidence and provide for the acceptance of appointment

 (viii) to provide for the
issuance of uncertificated Securities of one or more series in addition to or in place of certificated Securities;

(x) to make any other provisions with respect to matters or questions arising under this Indenture; provided, such
other provisions as may be made shall not adversely affect the interests of the Holders of outstanding Securities of any series in any material respect. 
 SECTION 9.02 Supplemental Indentures with Consent of Holders. (a) With the consent of the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of all series
affected by such supplemental indenture (acting as one class), by Act of said Holders delivered to the Issuers and the Trustee, the Issuers, when authorized by or pursuant to a Board Resolution, and the Trustee may enter into an indenture or
indentures supplemental hereto for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of this Indenture or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Holders of Securities of such series under
this indenture; provided, however, that no such supplemental indenture shall, without the consent of the Holder of each outstanding Security affected thereby, 

(i) change the Stated Maturity of the principal of, or any installment of principal of or interest on, any Security, or
reduce the principal amount thereof or the rate of interest thereon or any premium payable upon the redemption thereof, or reduce the amount of the principal of an Original Issue Discount Security that would be due and payable upon a declaration of
acceleration of the Maturity thereof pursuant to Section 5.02, or change any Place of Payment where, or the currency, currencies or currency unit or units in which, any Security or any premium or the interest thereon is payable, or impair the
right to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after the Stated Maturity thereof (or, in the case of redemption, on or after the Redemption Date), or affect adversely the terms, if any, of conversion of any Security into stock
or other securities of the Issuers or of any other corporation, 
 (ii) reduce the percentage in principal amount
of the Outstanding Securities of any series, the consent of whose Holders is required for any such supplemental indenture, or the consent of whose Holders is required for any waiver (of compliance with certain provisions of this Indenture or certain

 50 









 (iii) change any obligation of the Issuers, with respect to Outstanding
Securities of a series, to maintain an office or agency in the places and for the purposes specified in Section 10.02 for such series, or 
 (iv) modify any of the provisions of this Section or Section 5.04, except to increase any such percentage or to provide with respect to any particular series the right to condition the effectiveness
of any supplemental indenture as to that series on the consent of the Holders of a specified percentage of the aggregate principal amount of Outstanding Securities of such series (which provision may be made pursuant to Section 2.02 without the
consent of any Holder) or to provide that certain other provisions of this Indenture cannot be modified or waived without the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Security affected thereby; provided, however, that this clause
shall not be deemed to require the consent of any Holder with respect to changes in the references to “the Trustee” and concomitant changes in this Section, or the deletion of this proviso, in accordance with the requirements of
Section 6.11(b) and 9.01(vii). 
 (b) For purposes of this Section 9.02, if the Securities of any series are
issuable upon the exercise of warrants, each holder of an unexercised and unexpired warrant with respect to such series shall be deemed to be a Holder of Outstanding Securities of such series in the amount issuable upon the exercise of such warrant.
For such purposes, the ownership of any such warrant shall be determined by the Issuers in a manner consistent with customary commercial practices. The Trustee for such series shall be entitled to conclusively rely on an Officers’ Certificate
as to the principal amount of Securities of such series in respect of which consents shall have been executed by holders of such warrants. 
 (c) A supplemental indenture which changes or eliminates any covenant or other provision of this Indenture which has expressly been included solely for the benefit of one or more particular series of
Securities, or which modifies the rights of the Holders of Securities of such series with respect to such covenant or other provision, shall be deemed not to affect the rights under this Indenture of the Holders of Securities of any other series. It
shall not be necessary for any Act of Holders under this Section to approve the particular form of any proposed supplemental indenture, but it shall be sufficient if such Act shall approve the substance thereof. 

SECTION 9.03 Execution of Supplemental Indentures. In executing, or accepting the additional trusts created by, any supplemental
indenture permitted by this Article or the modifications thereby of the trusts created by this Indenture, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive (in addition to the opinion which the Trustee is entitled to receive pursuant to Section 2.02),
and (subject to Section 6.01) shall be fully protected in relying upon, an Opinion of Counsel stating that the execution of such supplemental indenture is authorized or permitted by this Indenture. The Trustee may, but shall not be obligated
to, enter into any such supplemental indenture which affects the Trustee’s own rights, duties, immunities or liabilities under this Indenture or otherwise. 
 SECTION 9.04 Effect of Supplemental Indentures. Upon the execution of any supplemental indenture under this Article, this Indenture shall be modified in accordance therewith, and such supplemental
indenture shall form a part of this Indenture for all purposes; and every Holder of Securities theretofore or thereafter authenticated and delivered hereunder shall be bound thereby. 

  
 51 









 SECTION 9.05 Conformity with Trust Indenture Act. Every supplemental indenture
executed pursuant to this Article shall conform to the requirements of the Trust Indenture Act as then in effect. 
 SECTION

notation in form approved by the Trustee as to any matter provided for in such supplemental indenture. If the Issuers shall so determine, new Securities of any series so modified as to conform, in the opinion of the Trustee and the Issuers, to any

 ARTICLE X 
 Covenants 

SECTION 10.01 Payment of Securities. 
 Suburban Propane will pay or cause to be paid the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Securities of a series on the dates and in the manner provided in the Securities of such series.
Principal, premium, if any, and interest will be considered paid on the date due if the Paying Agent, of other than the Issuers or a Subsidiary thereof, holds as of 10:00 a.m. Eastern Time on the due date money deposited by Suburban Propane in
immediately available funds and designated for and sufficient to pay all principal, premium, if any, and interest then due. 

Suburban Propane will pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue principal at
the rate equal to 1% per annum in excess of the then applicable interest rate on the Securities of a series to the extent lawful; it will pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue
installments of interest at the same rate to the extent lawful. 
 SECTION 10.02 Maintenance of Office or Agency.

 Suburban Propane will maintain in the Borough of Manhattan, the City of New York, an office or agency (which may be an office
of the Trustee or an affiliate of the Trustee, Registrar or co-registrar) where Securities of one or more series may be surrendered for registration of transfer or for exchange and where notices and demands to or upon Suburban Propane in respect of
the Securities of any series and this Indenture may be served. Suburban Propane will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of the location, and any change in the location, of such office or agency. If at any time Suburban Propane fails to
maintain any such required office or agency or fails to furnish the Trustee with the address thereof, such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands may be made or served at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee. 

Suburban Propane may also from time to time designate one or more other offices or agencies where the Securities of one or more series
may be presented or surrendered for any or 

  
 52 









 
all such purposes and may from time to time rescind such designations; provided, however, that no such designation or rescission will in any manner relieve Suburban Propane of its
obligation to maintain an office or agency in the Borough of Manhattan, the City of New York for such purposes. Suburban Propane will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any such designation or rescission and of any change in the location
of any such other office or agency. 
 Suburban Propane hereby designates the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee as one such
office or agency of Suburban Propane in accordance with Section 6.09 hereof. 
 SECTION 10.03 Reports. 

(a) Whether or not required by the Commission’s rules and regulations, so long as any Securities of a series are outstanding,
the Issuers will furnish to the Holders of Securities of such series or cause the Trustee to furnish to the Holders of Securities of such series, within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and regulations: 

(1) all quarterly and annual reports that would be required to be filed with the Commission on Forms 10-Q and 10-K if the
Issuers were required to file such reports; and 
 (2) all current reports that would be required to be filed
with the Commission on Form 8-K if the Issuers were required to file such reports. 
 All such reports will be prepared in all material respects
in accordance with all of the rules and regulations applicable to such reports. Each annual report on Form 10-K will include a report on the Issuers’ consolidated financial statements by the Issuers’ certified independent accountants. In
addition, the Issuers will file a copy of each of the reports referred to in clauses (1) and (2) above with the Commission for public availability within the time periods specified in the rules and regulations applicable to such reports
(unless the Commission will not accept such a filing) and will post the reports, or links to such reports, on Suburban Propane’s website within those time periods. 
 If, at any time, either or both of the Issuers are no longer subject to the periodic reporting requirements of the Exchange Act for any reason, the Issuers will nevertheless continue filing the reports
specified in the preceding paragraph with the Commission within the time periods specified above unless the Commission will not accept such a filing. The Issuers agree that they will not take any action for the purpose of causing the Commission not
to accept any such filings. If, notwithstanding the foregoing, the Commission will not accept the Issuers’ filings for any reason, the Issuers will post the reports referred to in the preceding paragraph on Suburban Propane’s website
within the time periods that would apply if the Issuers were required to file those reports with the Commission. 
 (b) If
Suburban Propane has designated any of its Subsidiaries as Unrestricted Subsidiaries, then the quarterly and annual financial information required by the preceding paragraph will include a reasonably detailed presentation, either on the face of the
financial statements or in the footnotes thereto, and in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, of the financial condition and results of operations of Suburban Propane and its Restricted
Subsidiaries separate from the financial condition and results of operations of the Unrestricted Subsidiaries of Suburban Propane.

supervision of the signing Officers with a view to determining whether Suburban Propane has kept, observed, performed and fulfilled its obligations under this Indenture, and further stating, as to each such Officer signing such certificate, that to
the best of his or her knowledge Suburban Propane has kept, observed, performed and fulfilled each and every covenant contained in this Indenture and is not in default in the performance or observance of any of the terms, provisions and conditions
of this Indenture (or, if a Default or Event of Default has occurred, describing all such Defaults or Events of Default of which he or she may have knowledge and what action Suburban Propane is taking or propose to take with respect thereto) and
that to the best of his or her knowledge no event has occurred and remains in existence by reason of which payments on account of the principal of or interest, if any, on the Securities is prohibited or if such event has occurred, a description of
the event and what action Suburban Propane is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto. 
 (b) So long as not
contrary to the then current recommendations of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, the year-end financial statements delivered pursuant to Section 10.03 above shall be accompanied by a written statement of Suburban
Propane’s independent public accountants (who shall be a firm of established national reputation) that in making the examination necessary for certification of such financial statements, nothing has come to their attention that would lead them
to believe that Suburban Propane has violated any provisions of Article V or Article X hereof or, if any such violation has occurred, specifying the nature and period of existence thereof, it being understood that such accountants shall
not be liable directly or indirectly to any Person for any failure to obtain knowledge of any such violation. 
 (c) So
long as any of the Securities of any series are outstanding, Suburban Propane will deliver to the Trustee, forthwith upon any Officer becoming aware of any Default or Event of Default, an Officers’ Certificate specifying such Default or Event
of Default and what action Suburban Propane is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto. 
 SECTION 10.05 Corporate
Existence. 
 Subject to Article XII hereof, Suburban Propane shall do or cause to be done all things necessary to
preserve and keep in full force and effect: 
 (a) its limited partnership or corporate existence, and the
corporate, partnership or other existence of each of its Subsidiaries, in accordance with the respective organizational documents (as the same may be amended from time to time) of Suburban Propane or any such Subsidiary; and 

  
 54 









 (b) the rights (charter and statutory), licenses and franchises of Suburban
Propane and its Subsidiaries; 
 provided, however, that Suburban Propane shall not be required to preserve any such right,
license or franchise, or the corporate, partnership or other existence of any of its Subsidiaries, if its Board of Supervisors shall determine that the preservation thereof is no longer desirable in the conduct of the business of Suburban Propane
and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, and that the loss thereof is not adverse in any material respect to the Holders of the Securities of any series. 
 SECTION 10.06 Existence of Corporate Co-Issuer. Suburban Propane will always maintain, directly or indirectly, a wholly-owned Restricted Subsidiary of Suburban Propane organized as a corporation
under the laws of the United States of America, any state thereof or the District of Columbia that will serve as a co-obligor of the Securities unless Suburban Propane is itself a corporation under the laws of the United States of America, any state
thereof or the District of Columbia. 
 SECTION 10.07 Calculation of Original Issue Discount. 

The Issuers shall file with the Trustee promptly after the issuance of any series of Securities pursuant to this Indenture, (i) a
written notice specifying the amount of original issue discount (including a depreciation schedule, daily rates and accrual periods) accrued on Outstanding Securities as of such date and (ii) such other specific information relating to such
original issue discount as may then be relevant under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended from time to time. 

ARTICLE XI 

Redemption of Securities 
 SECTION 11.01 Applicability of Article. Securities of any series which are redeemable before their Stated Maturity shall be redeemable in accordance with their terms and (except as otherwise
specified as contemplated by Section 2.02 for Securities of any series) in accordance with this Article. 
 SECTION 11.02
Election to Redeem; Notice to Trustee. The election of the Issuers to redeem any Securities shall be evidenced by Board Resolutions. If the Issuers shall desire to exercise the right to redeem all, or, as the case may be, any part of the
Securities of any series, the Issuers shall, at least 15 days but no more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date fixed by the Issuers (unless a shorter notice shall be satisfactory to the Trustee), notifying the Trustee of such
Redemption Date and of the principal amount of Securities of such series to be redeemed. In the case of any redemption of Securities prior to the expiration of any restriction on such redemption provided in the terms of such Securities or elsewhere
in this Indenture, the Issuers shall furnish the Trustee with an Officers’ Certificate evidencing compliance with such restriction. 
 SECTION 11.03 Selection by Trustee of Securities to be Redeemed. 
 If less
than all of the Securities of any series are to be redeemed at any time, the Trustee will select Securities for redemption as follows: 
 (1) if the Securities of such series are listed on any national securities exchange, in compliance with the requirements of the principal national securities exchange on which the Securities of such
series are listed; or 

  
 55 









 (2) if the Securities of such series are not listed on any national securities
exchange, on a pro rata basis, by lot or by such method as the Trustee deems fair and appropriate. 
 No Securities of $2,000 or
less can be redeemed in part. Notices of redemption will be mailed by first class mail at least 30 but not more than 60 days before the Redemption Date to each Holder of Securities to be redeemed at its registered address, except that
redemption notices may be mailed more than 60 days prior to a Redemption Date if the notice is issued in connection with a defeasance of the Securities or a satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture. Notices of redemption may not be
conditional. 
 If any Security is to be redeemed in part only, the notice of redemption that relates to that Security will
state the portion of the principal amount of that Security that is to be redeemed. A new Security in principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion of the original Security will be issued in the name of the Holders of such Securities upon
cancellation of the original Security. Securities called for redemption become due on the date fixed for redemption. On and after the Redemption Date, interest ceases to accrue on Securities or portions of them called for redemption. 

The Trustee shall promptly notify the Issuers in writing of the Securities selected for redemption and, in the case of any Securities
selected for partial redemption, the principal amount thereof to be redeemed. 
 For all purposes of this Indenture, unless the
context otherwise requires, all provisions relating to the redemption of Securities shall relate, in the case of any Securities redeemed or to be redeemed only in part, to the portion of the principal amount of such Securities which has been or is
to be redeemed. 
 SECTION 11.04 Notice of Redemption. (a) Notice of redemption shall be given not less than 30 nor
more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date, to each Holder of Securities to be redeemed, as provided in Section 1.06. 
 (b) Each such notice of redemption shall specify the Redemption Date, the Redemption Price, the Place or Places of Payment, that the Securities of such series are being redeemed at the option of the
Issuers pursuant to provisions contained in the terms of the Securities of such series or in a supplemental indenture establishing such series, if such be the case, together with a brief statement of the facts permitting such redemption, that on the
Redemption Date the Redemption Price will become due and payable upon each Security redeemed, that payment will be made upon presentation and surrender of the applicable Securities, that any interest accrued to the Redemption Date will be paid as
specified in said notice, that the redemption is pursuant to the sinking fund, if such is the case, and that on and after said Redemption Date any interest thereon or on the portions thereof to be redeemed will cease to accrue. If less than all the
Securities of any series are to be redeemed, the notice of redemption shall specify the registration and, if any, CUSIP numbers of the Securities of such 

  
 56 









 
series to be redeemed. In case any Security of any series is to be redeemed in part only, the notice of redemption shall state the portion of the principal amount thereof to be redeemed and shall
state that on and after the Redemption Date, upon surrender of such Security, a new Security or Securities of such series in principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion thereof will be issued, or, in the case of Securities providing appropriate
space for such notation, at the option of the Holders, the Trustee, in lieu of delivering a new Security or Securities as aforesaid, may make a notation on such Security of the payment of the redeemed portion thereof. 

(c) Notice of redemption of Securities to be redeemed at the election of the Issuers shall be given by the Issuers or, at the
Issuers’ request, delivered at least 5 Business Days before the date such notice is to be given (unless a shorter period shall be acceptable to the Trustee),by the Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Issuers. 

SECTION 11.05 Deposit of Redemption Price. On or before 10:00 a.m. Eastern Time on any Redemption Date, Suburban Propane
shall deposit with the Trustee or with a Paying Agent (or, if Suburban Propane is acting as its own paying Agent, segregate and hold in trust as provided in Section 12.05) an amount of money sufficient to pay the Redemption Price of, and
(except if the Redemption Date shall be an Interest Payment Date) accrued interest on, all the Securities which are to be redeemed on that date. The Trustee or the Paying Agent will promptly return to Suburban Propane any money deposited with the
Trustee or the Paying Agent by Suburban Propane in excess of the amounts necessary to pay the Redemption Price and (except if the Redemption Date shall be an Interest Payment Date) any accrued interest on, all the Securities which are to be redeemed
on that date, if any. 
 SECTION 11.06 Securities Payable on Redemption Date. (a) Notice of redemption having been
given as aforesaid, the Securities so to be redeemed shall, on the Redemption Date, become due and payable at the Redemption Price therein specified, and from and after such date (unless the Issuers shall default in the payment of the Redemption
Price and accrued interest) such Securities shall cease to bear interest. Upon surrender of any such Security for redemption in accordance with said notice, such Security shall be paid by the Issuers at the Redemption Price, together with accrued
interest to the Redemption Date; provided, however, that unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 2.02, installments of interest on Securities whose Stated Maturity is on or prior to the Redemption Date shall be
payable to the Holders of such Securities, or one or more Predecessor Securities, registered as such at the close of business on the relevant Record Dates according to their terms and the provisions of Section 3.06. 

(b) If any Security called for redemption shall not be so paid upon surrender thereof for redemption, the principal and any premium
shall, until paid, bear interest from the Redemption Date at the rate prescribed therefor in the Security. 
 SECTION 11.07
Securities Redeemed in Part. Any Security which is to be redeemed only in part shall be surrendered at a Place of Payment therefor (with, if the Issuers or the Trustee so requires, due endorsement by, or a written instrument of transfer in
form satisfactory to the Issuers and the Trustee duly executed by, the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing), and the Issuers shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and make available for delivery to the Holder of
such Security without service charge, a new Security or Securities of the same series and Stated Maturity, of any authorized denomination as requested 

  
 57 









 
by such Holder, in aggregate principal amount equal to and in exchange for the unredeemed portion of the principal of the Security so surrendered or, in the case of Securities providing
appropriate space for such notation, at the option of the Holder, the Trustee, in lieu of delivering a new Security or Securities as aforesaid, may make a notation on such Security of the Payment of the redeemed portion thereof. 

SECTION 11.08 Optional Redemption. 
 (a) The Issuers may on any one or more occasions redeem an or all of the aggregate principal amount of Securities of a series issued under this Indenture and any applicable supplemental indenture at
the redemption prices set forth in such applicable supplemental indenture, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the Redemption Date for such series, as set forth in such applicable supplemental indenture. 

(b) Any redemption pursuant to this Section 11.08 shall be made pursuant to the provisions of Article XI hereof.

 (c) Unless the Issuers default in the payment of the redemption price, interest will cease to accrue on the Securities
of a series or portions thereof called for redemption on the applicable Redemption Date. 
 SECTION 11.09 Mandatory
Redemption. 
 The Issuers are not required to make mandatory redemption or sinking fund payments with respect to the
Securities. 
 ARTICLE XII 
 Legal Defeasance and Covenant Defeasance 
 SECTION 12.01 Option to Effect Legal
Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance. 
 The Issuers may, at the option of the Board of Supervisors of Suburban Propane
evidenced by a resolution set forth in an Officers’ Certificate, and at any time, elect to have either Section 12.02 or 12.03 hereof be applied to all outstanding Securities of a series upon compliance with the conditions set forth below
in this Article XII. 
 SECTION 12.02 Legal Defeasance and Discharge. 

Upon the Issuers’ exercise under Section 12.01 hereof of the option applicable to this Section 12.02, the Issuers will,
subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 12.04 hereof, be deemed to have been discharged from their obligations with respect to all outstanding Securities of a series on the date the conditions set forth below are
satisfied (hereinafter, “Legal Defeasance”). For this purpose, Legal Defeasance means that the Issuers will be deemed to have paid and discharged the entire Indebtedness represented by the outstanding Securities of a series, which
will thereafter be deemed to be “outstanding” only for the purposes of Section 12.05 hereof and the other Sections of this Indenture referred to in clauses (a) and (b) below, and to have satisfied all their other obligations
under such Securities of a series and this Indenture (and the Trustee, on demand of and at the expense of Suburban Propane, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging the same), except for the following provisions which will survive until
otherwise terminated or discharged hereunder: 
 (a) the rights of Holders of outstanding Securities of a series to receive
payments in respect of the principal of, or interest or premium on such Securities of a series when such payments are due from the trust referred to in Section 12.04 hereof; 

  
 58 









 (b) the Issuers’ obligations with respect to such Securities of a series under
Article II and Section 12.05; 
 (c) the rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the Trustee hereunder
and the Issuers’ obligations in connection therewith; and 
 (d) this Article XII. 

Subject to compliance with this Article XII, the Issuers’ may exercise their option under this Section 12.02
notwithstanding the prior exercise of their option under Section 12.01 hereof. 
 SECTION 12.03 Covenant Defeasance. 

Upon the Issuers’ exercise under Section 12.01 hereof of the option applicable to this Section 12.03, the Issuers will,
subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 12.04 hereof, be released from their obligations under the covenants contained in Section 10.03 hereof (except with respect to the existence of each Issuer) and clause
(A)(4) of Section 8.01 hereof with respect to the outstanding Securities of a series on and after the date the conditions set forth in Section 12.04 hereof are satisfied (hereinafter, “Covenant Defeasance”), and the
Securities of a series will thereafter be deemed not “outstanding” for the purposes of any direction, waiver, consent or declaration or act of Holders (and the consequences of any thereof) in connection with such covenants, but will
continue to be deemed “outstanding” for all other purposes hereunder (it being understood that such Securities of a series will not be deemed outstanding for accounting purposes). For this purpose, Covenant Defeasance means that, with
respect to the outstanding Securities, the Issuers may omit to comply with and will have no liability in respect of any term, condition or limitation set forth in any such covenant, whether directly or indirectly, by reason of any reference
elsewhere herein to any such covenant or by reason of any reference in any such covenant to any other provision herein or in any other document and such omission to comply will not constitute a Default or an Event of Default under Section 5.01
hereof, but, except as specified above, the remainder of this Indenture and such Securities of a series will be unaffected thereby. In addition, upon the Issuers’ exercise under Section 12.01 hereof of the option applicable to this
Section 12.03 hereof, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 12.04 hereof, Section 5.01(c) through 5.01(f) hereof will not constitute Events of Default. 

  
 59 









 SECTION 12.04 Conditions to Legal or Covenant Defeasance. 

In order to exercise either Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance under either Section 12.02 or 12.03 hereof: 

(a) the Issuers must irrevocably deposit with the Trustee, in trust, for the benefit of the Holders of the Securities of a series,
cash in U.S. dollars, noncallable Government Securities, or a combination thereof, in such amounts as will be sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally recognized investment bank, appraisal firm, or firm of independent public accountants, to pay
the principal of, or interest and premium on the outstanding Securities of a series on the Stated Maturity or on the applicable Redemption Date, as the case may be, and the Issuers must specify whether the Securities of a series are being defeased
to such stated date for payment or to a particular Redemption Date; 
 (b) in the case of a Legal Defeasance, the Issuers
must deliver to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel reasonably acceptable to the Trustee confirming that (i) the Issuers have received from, or there has been published by, the Internal Revenue Service a ruling or (ii) since the date of this
Indenture, there has been a change in the applicable federal income tax law, in either case to the effect that, and based thereon such Opinion of Counsel shall confirm that, the Holders of the outstanding Securities of a series will not recognize
income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of such Legal Defeasance and will be subject to federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such Legal Defeasance
had not occurred; 
 (c) in the case of Covenant Defeasance, the Issuers must deliver to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel
reasonably acceptable to the Trustee confirming that the Holders of the outstanding Securities of a series will not recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of such Covenant Defeasance and will be subject to federal
income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such Covenant Defeasance had not occurred; 
 (d) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of such deposit (other than a Default or Event of Default resulting from the borrowing of funds to be applied to
such deposit and the grant of any Lien securing such borrowing); 
 (e) such Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance will
not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, any material agreement or instrument (other than this Indenture) to which Suburban Propane or any of its Subsidiaries is a party or by which Suburban Propane or any of its
Subsidiaries is bound; 
 (f) the Issuers must deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate stating that the
deposit was not made by the Issuers with the intent of preferring the Holders of Securities of a series over the other creditors of the Issuers with the intent of defeating, hindering, delaying or defrauding any other creditors of the Issuers or
others; 
 (g) the Issuers must deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each
stating that all conditions precedent provided for or relating to the Legal Defeasance or the Covenant Defeasance have been complied with; and 
 (h) the Issuers shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that, assuming no intervening bankruptcy of the Issuers between the date of deposit and the 91st day following
the date of deposit and that no Holder is an insider of either of the Issuers, after the 91st day following the date of deposit, the trust funds will not be subject to the effect of any applicable federal bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or
similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally. 

  
 60 









 Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Opinion of Counsel required by clause (b) above with
respect to a Legal Defeasance need not be delivered if all Securities of a series not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation (1) have become due and payable or (2) will become due and payable on the maturity date within one
year, or are to be called for redemption within one year, under arrangements reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee for the giving of notice of redemption by the Trustee in the name, and at the expense, of the Issuers. 

SECTION 12.05 Deposited Money and Government Securities to be Held in Trust; Other Miscellaneous Provisions. 

Subject to Section 12.06 hereof, all money and noncallable Government Securities (including the proceeds thereof) deposited with the
Trustee (or other qualifying trustee, collectively for purposes of this Section 12.05, the “Trustee”) pursuant to Section 12.04 hereof in respect of the outstanding Securities of a series will be held in trust and applied by the
Trustee, in accordance with the provisions of such Securities and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including an Issuer acting as Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the Holders of such
Securities of all sums due and to become due thereon in respect of principal, premium and interest, but such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. 

The Issuers will pay and indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against the cash or
noncallable Government Securities deposited pursuant to Section 12.04 hereof or the principal and interest received in respect thereof other than any such tax, fee or other charge which by law is for the account of the Holders of the
outstanding Securities of a series. 
 Notwithstanding anything in this Article XII to the contrary, the Trustee will
deliver or pay to the Issuers from time to time upon the request of the Issuers any money or noncallable Government Securities held by it as provided in Section 12.04 hereof which, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent
public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee (which may be the opinion delivered under Section 12.04(a) hereof), are in excess of the amount thereof that would then be required to be deposited to
effect an equivalent Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance. 
 SECTION 12.06 Repayment to Suburban Propane. 

Any money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by Suburban Propane, in trust for the payment of the principal of,
premium or interest on any Security of a series and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal, premium or interest has become due and payable shall be paid to Suburban Propane on its request or (if then held by Suburban Propane) will be
discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such Security of a series will thereafter be permitted to look only to Suburban Propane for payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust money, and
all liability of 

  
 61 









 
the Issuers as trustee thereof, will thereupon cease; provided, however, that the Trustee or such Paying Agent, before being required to make any such repayment, may at the expense
of Suburban Propane cause to be published once, in the New York Times and The Wall Street Journal (national edition), notice that such money remains unclaimed and that, after a date specified therein, which will not be less than
30 days from the date of such notification or publication, any unclaimed balance of such money then remaining will be repaid to the Issuers. 
 SECTION 12.07 Reinstatement. 
 If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to
apply any United States dollars or noncallable Government Securities in accordance with Section 12.02 or 12.03 hereof, as the case may be, by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or
otherwise prohibiting such application, then the Issuers’ obligations under this Indenture and the Securities of a series will be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 12.02 or 12.03 hereof until such
time as the Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such money in accordance with Section 12.02 or 12.03 hereof, as the case may be; provided, however, that, if Suburban Propane makes any payment of principal of, premium
or interest on any Security of a series following the reinstatement of its obligations, Suburban Propane will be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Securities to receive such payment from the money held by the Trustee or Paying Agent.
