UGI CORPORATION 
2013 OMNIBUS INCENTIVE COMPENSATION PLAN 
FORM OF NONQUALIFIED STOCK OPTION GRANT LETTER
This STOCK OPTION GRANT, dated January 1, 2016 (the “Date of Grant”), is delivered by UGI Corporation (“UGI”) to you (the “Participant”).
RECITALS
The UGI Corporation 2013 Omnibus Incentive Compensation Plan (the “Plan”), provides for the grant of options to purchase shares of common stock of UGI.  The Compensation and Management Development Committee of the Board of Directors of UGI (the “Committee”) has decided to make a stock option grant to the Participant.  The Participant’s portal in the Morgan Stanley website for Plan participants (the “Grant Summary”) sets forth the number of shares subject to the Option granted to the Participant in this grant.
NOW, THEREFORE, the parties to this Grant Letter, intending to be legally bound hereby, agree as follows:
1.Grant of Option.  Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Grant Letter and in the Plan, the Committee hereby grants to the Participant a nonqualified stock option (the “Option”) to purchase the number of shares of common stock of UGI (“Shares”) specified in the Grant Summary at an exercise price of $33.76 per Share.  The Option shall become exercisable according to Section 2 below.
2.    Exercisability of Option.  The Option shall become exercisable on the following dates, if the Participant is employed by, or providing service to, the Company (as defined below) on the applicable date:
	
		
	

Date
	Shares for Which the
Option is Exercisable

	January 1, 2017
	331⁄3%

	January 1, 2018
	331⁄3%

	January 1, 2019
	331⁄3%






The exercisability of the Option is cumulative, but shall not exceed 100% of the Shares subject to the Option.  If the foregoing schedule would produce fractional Shares, the number of Shares for which the Option becomes exercisable shall be rounded down to the nearest whole Share.









3.    Term of Option.
(a)    The Option shall have a term of ten years from the Date of Grant and shall terminate at the expiration of that period (5:00 p.m. EST on December 31, 2025), unless it is terminated at an earlier date pursuant to the provisions of this Grant Letter or the Plan.
(b)    If the Participant ceases to be employed by, or provide service to, the Company, the Option will terminate on the date the Participant ceases such employment or service.  However, if the Participant ceases to be employed by, or provide service to, the Company by reason of one of the following events, the Option held by the Participant will thereafter be exercisable pursuant to the following terms:
(i)    Termination without Cause.  If the Participant terminates employment or service on account of a Termination without Cause, the Option will thereafter be exercisable only with respect to that number of Shares with respect to which the Option is already exercisable on the date the Participant’s employment or service terminates, except as provided in subsection (v) below.  Such portion of the Option will terminate upon the earlier of the expiration date of the Option or the expiration of the 13-month period commencing on the date the Participant ceases to be employed by, or provide service to, the Company.
(ii)    Retirement.  If the Participant ceases to be employed by, or provide service to, the Company on account of Retirement after June 30, 2016, the Option will thereafter become exercisable as if the Participant had continued to be employed by, or provide service to, the Company after the date of such Retirement.  The Option will terminate if the Participant ceases to be employed by, or provide service to, the Company on account of Retirement on or before June 30, 2016.  The Option will terminate upon the expiration date of the Option.  
(iii)    Disability.  If the Participant ceases to be employed by, or provide service to, the Company on account of Disability, the Option will thereafter become exercisable as if the Participant had continued to provide service to the Company for 36 months after the date of such termination of employment or service.  The Option will terminate upon the earlier of the expiration date of the Option or the expiration of such 36-month period.
(iv)    Death.  In the event of the death of the Participant while employed by, or providing service to, the Company, the Option will be fully and immediately exercisable and may be exercised at any time prior to the earlier of the expiration date of the Option or the expiration of the 12-month period following the Participant’s death.  Death of the Participant after the Participant has ceased to be employed by, or provide service to, the Company will not affect the otherwise applicable period for exercise of the Option determined pursuant to subsections (i), (ii), (iii) or (v).  After the Participant’s death, the Participant’s Option may be exercised by the Participant’s estate.
(v)    Termination without Cause or Good Reason Termination upon or within two years after a Change of Control.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Participant’s 


-2-







employment or service terminates on account of a Termination without Cause or a Good Reason Termination upon or within two years after a Change of Control, the Option will be fully and immediately exercisable.  The Option will terminate upon the earlier of the expiration date of the Option or the expiration of the 13-month period commencing on the date the Participant ceases to be employed by, or provide service to, the Company; provided that if the Participant is eligible for Retirement at the date of such termination of employment, the Option will terminate on the expiration date of the Option.
4.    Exercise Procedures.  
(a)    Subject to the provisions of Sections 2 and 3 above, the Participant may exercise part or all of the exercisable Option through the Morgan Stanley website for Plan participants.  Payment of the exercise price and any applicable withholding taxes must be made prior to issuance of the Shares.  The Participant shall pay the exercise price (i) in cash, (ii) by “net exercise,” which is the surrender of shares for which the Option is exercisable to the Company in exchange for a distribution of Shares equal to the amount by which the then fair market value of the Shares subject to the exercised Option exceeds the applicable Option Price, (iii) by payment through a broker in accordance with procedures acceptable to the Committee and permitted by Regulation T of the Federal Reserve Board or (iv) by such other method as the Committee may approve.  The Committee may impose such limitations as it deems appropriate on the use of Shares to exercise the Option.  
(b)    The obligation of UGI to deliver Shares upon exercise of the Option shall be subject to all applicable laws, rules, and regulations and such approvals by governmental agencies as may be deemed appropriate by the Committee, including such actions as UGI’s counsel shall deem necessary or appropriate to comply with relevant securities laws and regulations.  UGI may require that the Participant (or other person exercising the Option after the Participant’s death) represent that the Participant is purchasing Shares for the Participant’s own account and not with a view to or for sale in connection with any distribution of the Shares, or such other representation as UGI deems appropriate.  
(c)    All obligations of UGI under this Grant Letter shall be subject to the rights of the Company as set forth in the Plan to withhold amounts required to be withheld for any taxes, if applicable.  
5.    Definitions.  Whenever used in this Grant Letter, the following terms shall have the meanings set forth below:

(ii)    a material diminution in the Participant’s base salary as in effect immediately prior to the Change of Control; or

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Participant shall be considered to have a Good Reason Termination only if the Participant provides written notice to the Company, pursuant to Section 13, specifying in reasonable detail the events or conditions upon which the Participant is basing such Good Reason Termination and the Participant provides such notice within 90 days after the event that gives rise to the Good Reason Termination.  Within 30 days after notice has been provided, the Company shall have the opportunity, but shall have no obligation, to cure such events or conditions that give rise to the Good Reason Termination.  If the Company does not cure such events or conditions within the 30-day period, the Participant may terminate employment or service with the Company based on Good Reason Termination within 30 days after the expiration of the cure period.    
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Participant has in effect a Change in Control Agreement with the Company or an Affiliate, the term “Good Reason Termination” shall have the meaning given that term in the Change in Control Agreement.
(f)    “Retirement” means the Participant’s retirement under the Retirement Income Plan for Employees of UGI Utilities, Inc., if the Participant is covered by that Retirement Income Plan.  “Retirement” for other Company employees means termination of employment or service after attaining (i) age 55 with ten or more years of service with the Company or (ii) age 65 with five or more years of service with the Company.

6.    Change of Control.  If a Change of Control occurs, the Committee may take such actions with respect to the Option as it deems appropriate pursuant to the Plan.  The Option shall not automatically become exercisable upon a Change of Control but, instead, shall become exercisable as described in Sections 2 and 3 above.
7.    Restrictions on Exercise.  Except as the Committee may otherwise permit pursuant to the Plan, only the Participant may exercise the Option during the Participant’s lifetime and, after the Participant’s death, the Option shall be exercisable by the Participant’s estate, to the extent that the Option is exercisable pursuant to this Grant Letter.

9.    No Employment or Other Rights.  The grant of the Option shall not confer upon the Participant any right to be retained by or in the employ or service of the Company and shall not interfere in any way with the right of the Company to terminate the Participant’s employment or service at any time.  The right of the Company to terminate at will the Participant’s employment or service at any time for any reason is specifically reserved.
10.    No Shareholder Rights.  Neither the Participant, nor any person entitled to exercise the Participant’s rights in the event of the Participant’s death, shall have any of the rights and privileges of a shareholder with respect to the Shares subject to the Option, until certificates for Shares have been issued upon the exercise of the Option.
