OVERLAND PARK, Kan., April 13, 2010 /PRNewswire via COMTEX/ --Ferrellgas Partners, L.P. (NYSE: FGP) (the "Company") announced today that $233,764,000 in principal amount of the 8.75% Senior Notes due 2012 issued by the Company and Ferrellgas Partners Finance Corp. (the "Notes") (CUSIP No. 31529MAA6), or 87% of the outstanding Notes, had been validly tendered as of the expiration of the early tender date and withdrawal date of 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on April 12, 2010, in connection with the previously announced cash tender offer to purchase any and all of the outstanding Notes. The tender offer is made pursuant to an Offer to Purchase dated March 30, 2010 (the "Offer to Purchase"), which sets forth a more comprehensive description of the terms of the tender offer.

On April 13, 2010, the Company accepted for purchase and payment all of the Notes that were validly tendered and not withdrawn at or prior to the early tender date. Payment for the Notes was made today. Holders of the Notes who tendered their Notes at or prior to the early tender date received $1,014.58 for each $1,000 principal amount of the Notes validly tendered (which includes the early tender payment of $30.00 per $1,000 principal amount of Notes), plus any accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes from the last interest payment date for the Notes to, but not including, the initial payment date for the tender offer.

The tender offer remains open and is scheduled to expire at 11:59 p.m., New York City time, on April 26, 2010, unless extended or earlier terminated. Holders who validly tender their Notes after the expiration of the early tender date and at or prior to the expiration date will receive $984.58 for each $1,000 principal amount of the Notes validly tendered (which is the total consideration minus the early tender payment), plus any accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes from the last interest payment date for the Notes to, but not including, the final payment date for the tender offer. The Company currently expects to have a final acceptance date and final purchase promptly following the expiration of the tender offer for Notes tendered after the early tender date. If any condition in the Offer to Purchase is not satisfied, the Company is not obligated to accept for purchase, or to pay for, Notes tendered in the tender offer and, subject to applicable law, may terminate, extend or amend the tender offer and may postpone the acceptance for purchase of, and payment for, Notes so tendered.
