(i) Utilities means UGI Utilities, Inc.
2. Options
(a) Grant of Options. The Committee will select the Employees who shall receive Options, and
will determine the number of shares subject to each Option, the Option Price and the other terms of

Committee determines otherwise, no Dividend Equivalents will be granted with respect to Options.
(b) Exercise and Vesting.
(i) Except as otherwise specified by the Committee in the Grant Letter, each Option shall
become exercisable in equal one-third installments on the first, second and third anniversaries of
the Date of Grant. The Committee may accelerate the exercisability of any or all outstanding

(ii) Except as otherwise specified by the Committee, in the event that a Participant holding
an Option ceases to be employed by, or provide service to, the Company, the Options held by such
Participant will terminate on the date such Participant ceases such employment or service.
However, if a Participant holding an Option ceases to be employed by, or provide service to, the
Company by reason of (i) Termination without Cause, (ii) Retirement, (iii) Disability, or (iv)
death, the Option held by the Participant will thereafter be exercisable pursuant to the following:
(A) Termination Without Cause. If a Participant terminates employment or service on account
of a Termination without Cause, the Option held by such Participant will thereafter be exercisable
only with respect to that number of shares of Stock with respect to which the Option is already
exercisable on the date such Participants employment or service terminates. Such 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

expiration of the 12-month period following the Participants death. Death of a Participant after
the Participant has ceased to be employed by, or provide service to, the Company will not affect
the otherwise applicable period for vesting and exercise of the Option determined pursuant to
subsections (A), (B) or (C) above. After a Participants death, the Participants Option may be
exercised by the Participants estate.
(c) Payment. An Option may be exercised, and the Option Price paid, in any method permitted
by the Plan.
(d) Change of Control. All outstanding Options shall become fully vested upon a Change of
Control.
3. Performance Units
(a) Grant of Performance Units. The Committee will select the Employees who will receive
Performance Units and will determine the number of shares subject to Performance Units and the
terms of the Performance Units. Unless the Committee determines otherwise, Dividend Equivalents
will be granted with respect to Performance Units. The Committee shall specify in the Grant Letter
for Performance Units the terms and conditions of the Performance Units and the applicable
restrictions and performance goals, including the objective goals, employment requirements, period
during which the Performance Units shall be subject to restrictions and other conditions of the
Grant.
(b) Terms. The Committee will establish performance goals and terms for Performance Units in
accordance with Section 13 of the Plan. The Committee will establish appropriate threshold, Target
Amount and maximum payments to be made with respect to the Performance Units.
3
(c) Requirements of Employment or Service. If the Participant ceases to be employed by, or
provide service to, the Company during the applicable period specified in the Grant Letter, all of
the Participants the Performance Units will terminate. However, if a Participant holding
Performance Units ceases to be employed by, or provide service to, the Company by reason of
Retirement, Disability, or death, the restrictions on Performance Units held by the Participant
will lapse pursuant to the following:
(i) If a Participant terminates employment or service on account of Retirement, Disability or
death, the restrictions on a pro-rata portion of the Participants outstanding Performance Units
will lapse at the end of the restriction period set forth in the Grant
Letter, if the performance goals and all requirements of the Grant Letter (other than
continued employment) are met. The prorated portion will be determined, for each Performance Unit,
as the amount that would otherwise be paid according to the terms of the Performance Unit, based on
achievement of the performance goals, multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the
number of years during the restriction period in which the Participant has been employed by, or
provided service to, the Company and the denominator of which is the number of years in the entire
restriction period applicable to such Performance Units. For purposes of the proration
calculation, the year in which the Participants Retirement, Disability, or death occurs will be
counted as a full year.
(ii) In the event of Retirement, Disability or death, the prorated portion of the Performance
Units shall be paid at the date specified for payment of the Performance Units in the Grant Letter,
or at an earlier date determined by the Committee in the Grant Letter.
(d) Payment of Performance Units. If the Committee determines that the conditions to payment
of the Performance Units have been met, the Company shall pay to the Participant, within 21/2 months
after the end of the restriction period, (i) shares of Stock or cash, or a combination of the two,
as the Committee determines, equal to the amount to be paid according to achievement of the
performance goals, up to the target award specified in the Participants Grant Letter and (ii) cash
in an amount equal to the Fair Market Value of the shares of Stock underlying the Performance Units
for any amounts payable in excess of the target amount specified by the Committee for the
Performance Units.
(e) Coordination with Severance Plan. Notwithstanding any other provisions of these Terms and
Conditions, if a Participant receives severance benefits under a Severance Plan, the terms of which
require that severance compensation payable under the Severance Plan be reduced by benefits payable
under this Plan, any amount payable to the Participant under Performance Units and Dividend
Equivalents after the Participants termination of employment shall be reduced by the amount of
severance compensation paid to the Participant under the Severance Plan, as required by, and
according to the terms of, the Severance Plan.
(f) Dividend Equivalents with Respect to Performance Units. Dividend Equivalents, if granted,
shall accrue with respect to Performance Units and shall be payable subject to the same performance
goals and terms as the Performance Units to which they relate. Dividend Equivalents shall be
credited with respect to Performance Units from the Date of Grant until the date on which the
Performance Units are paid. If and to the extent that the underlying Performance Units are
forfeited, all related Dividend Equivalents shall also be forfeited.
(g) Accounts. While Performance Units are outstanding, the Company will keep records in an
Account for each Participant who holds Performance Units. On each payment date for a dividend paid
by UGI on its Stock, the Company shall credit to the Participants Account an amount equal to the
Dividend Equivalents associated with the Performance Units held by the Participant on the record
date for the dividend. No interest will be credited to any such Account. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, a Participant may not accrue Dividend Equivalents in excess of $750,000 during any
calendar year.
4
(h) Payment of Dividend Equivalents. Dividend Equivalents will be paid after the performance
goals and other requirements specified in the Grant Letter have been met, at the same time as the
underlying Performance Units are paid or as otherwise determined by the Committee. Dividend
Equivalents will be paid in cash, Stock or a combination of the two, as the Committee determines.
(i) Change of Control. Upon a Change of Control, all outstanding Performance Units and
Dividend Equivalents shall be paid in cash in an amount equal to the greater of (i) the target
amount or (ii) the amount earned as of the date of the Change of Control based on the Companys
achievement of the performance goals as of the Change of Control, as determined by the Committee.
If a former Participant is entitled to receive a prorated award for the restriction period pursuant
to Section 3(c) above, the award will be the prorated portion of the amount described in the
preceding sentence. The Performance Units and Dividend Equivalents shall be paid on the closing
date of the Change of Control.
4. Stock Units
(a) Grants of Stock Units. The Committee will select the Employees who will receive Stock
Units and will determine the number of shares subject to Stock Units and the terms of the Stock
Units. Unless the Committee determines otherwise, Dividend Equivalents will be granted with
respect to Stock Units. The Committee shall specify in the Participants Grant Letter the terms
and conditions of the Stock Units and the applicable restrictions, including the period during
which the Stock Units will be subject to vesting requirements, if any, and other conditions of the
Grant.
(b) Vesting of Stock Units. Stock Units will vest on such terms as the Committee determines
and specifies in the Grant Letter. If the Participant ceases to be employed by, or provide service
to the Company, any unvested Stock Units will immediately terminate, except as provided below. The
Committee may authorize payment of Stock Units on a prorated or other basis in such circumstances
as the Committee deems appropriate, including in the event that a Participant ceases to be employed
by, or provide service to, the Company, on account of Retirement, Disability or death.
(c) Payment of Stock Units. A Participant will receive payment with respect to Stock Units
as the Stock Units vest, within 30 business days after the vesting date. Payment shall be made in
Stock, in cash or in a combination of the two, as determined by the Committee.
(d) Coordination with Severance Plan. Notwithstanding any other provisions of these Terms and
Conditions, if a Participant receives severance benefits under a Severance Plan, the terms of which
require that severance compensation payable under the Severance Plan be reduced by benefits payable
under this Plan, any amount payable to the Participant under Stock Units and Dividend Equivalents
after the Participants termination of employment shall be reduced by the amount of severance
compensation paid to the Participant under the Severance Plan, as required by, and according to the
terms of, the Severance Plan, if permitted by section 409A of the Code.
5
(e) Dividend Equivalents with Respect to Stock Units. Dividend Equivalents, if granted, shall
accrue with respect to Stock Units and shall be payable subject to the same terms as the Stock
Units to which they relate. Dividend Equivalents shall be credited with respect to Stock Units
from the Date of Grant until the date on which the Stock Units are paid. If the underlying Stock
Units are forfeited, all related Dividend Equivalents shall also be forfeited.
(f) Accounts. While Stock Units are outstanding, the Company will keep records in an Account
for each Participant who holds Stock Units. On each payment date for a dividend paid by UGI on its
Stock, the Company shall credit to the Participants Account an amount equal to the Dividend
Equivalents associated with the Stock Units held by the Participant on the record date for the
dividend. No interest will be credited to any such Account. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a
Participant may not accrue Dividend Equivalents in excess of $750,000 during any calendar year.
(g) Payment of Dividend Equivalents. Dividend Equivalents will be paid after the vesting and
other requirements specified in the Grant Letter have been met, at the same time as the underlying
Stock Units are paid or as otherwise determined by the Committee. Dividend Equivalents will be
paid in cash, Stock or a combination of the two, as the Committee determines.
(h) Change of Control. All outstanding Stock Units shall become fully vested upon a Change of
Control and shall be paid in cash on the closing date of the Change of Control. All Dividend
Equivalents shall become fully vested and paid when the underlying Stock Units are paid.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Stock Units are subject to section 409A of the Code, the
Stock Units shall be paid upon a Change of Control only if the transaction constituting a Change of
Control is also a change in control event under section 409A of the Code (409A Change in Control
Event). If the transaction constituting a Change of Control does not constitute a 409A Change in
Control Event, the outstanding Stock Units will vest upon the Change of Control, and any
outstanding Stock Units that are subject to section 409A will be paid in cash (based on the value
of the Stock Units on the payment date as determined by the Committee) within 30 days after the
first to occur of (i) the vesting date set forth in the Participants Grant Letter or (ii) the
Participants termination of employment or service (subject to the section 409A six-month delay, if
applicable). If payment is delayed after the Change of Control, the Committee may provide for the
Stock Units to be valued as of the date of the Change of Control and interest to be credited on the
amount so determined at a market rate for the period between the Change of Control date and the
payment date.
5. Reduction of Responsibilities
The Committee shall have discretion to adjust a Participants Options that are not yet
exercisable and a Participants outstanding Performance Units and Stock Units, if the Participants
authority, duties or responsibilities are significantly reduced.
6
6. Change of Control
(a) Authorization. In the event of a Change of Control, the provisions of Sections 2(d), 3(i)
and 4(h) above shall apply to Options, Performance Units and Stock Units, and the
Committee may take such other actions with respect to outstanding Options as it deems
appropriate pursuant to the Plan. The term Change of Control shall mean a Change of Control of
UGI, as defined in the Plan, except as provided below.
(b) AmeriGas Employees. For Participants who are employees of AmeriGas, or a subsidiary of
AmeriGas, the term Change of Control shall mean (i) a Change of Control of UGI, as defined in the

amounts set forth on the attached Exhibit C, on the fifth business day of each Plan Year. The
Option Price will equal the Fair Market Value on the Date of Grant.
(b) Exercise and Vesting. Except as otherwise specified in the Grant Letter, an Option will

by their terms immediately exercisable, the Committee may accelerate the exercisability of any or
all outstanding Options at any time for any reason. No Option will be exercisable on or after the
tenth anniversary of the Date of Grant.
(c) Separation from Service. Except as otherwise specified by the Committee, each Option, to
the extent that it has not previously been exercised, will terminate when the Participant holding
such Option Separates from Service. However, if a Participant holding an Option Separates from
Service by reason of retirement, disability, or death, the Option held by any such Participant will
be fully and immediately exercisable and will thereafter be exercisable pursuant to the following:

after the fifth business day of the Plan Year shall receive, on the date such individual
becomes a Non-Employee Director, a pro-rata share of the annual award of Stock Units determined
based on the number of calendar quarters during the Plan Year that he or she is expected to serve
as a Non-Employee Director. A Non-Employee Director will be deemed to serve for the entire quarter

or Separates from Service prior to the last day of the Plan Year, as soon as practicable following
such event and in no event later than the date on which Stock Units are redeemed in accordance with
Section 4, the Company shall convert the amount of the Dividend Equivalents credited to the
Participants Account as of the date of the Change of Control, death or Separation from Service
(the Conversion Date) to a number of Stock Units based on the Unit Value on the Conversion Date.
(c) Accounts. The Company shall keep records to reflect the number of Stock Units and
Dividend Equivalents credited to each Non-Employee Director hereunder. Fractional Stock Units shall
accumulate in the Participants Account and shall be added to fractional Stock Units held in such
Account to create whole Stock Units.
(d) Directors Equity Compensation Plan. On and after the Effective Date, Dividend
Equivalents shall be credited and paid on all Stock Units that are outstanding under the Directors
Equity Plan on the Effective Date, on the same terms as described in this Section 3 and Section 4
below. All Units outstanding under the Directors Equity Plan on the Effective Date, including
accrued Dividend Equivalents, shall be paid according to Section 4 below.
4. Events Requiring Redemption of Stock Units
The Company shall redeem Stock Units credited to a Participants Account only at the times and
in the manner prescribed by the terms of this Section 4
(a) Death. In the event a Participant dies, the Company shall redeem all of the Stock Units
then credited to the Participants Account as of the date of the Participants death, based on the
Unit Value of the Stock Units credited to the Participants Account as of the date of the
Participants death. An amount equal to 65% of the aggregate Unit Value will be paid in the form
of whole Shares (with fractional Shares paid in cash), and the remaining 35% of the aggregate Unit
Value will be paid in cash. The redemption amount shall be paid to the Participants estate within
60 business days after the Participants death.
10
(b) Separation from Service. In the event a Participant Separates from Service, the Company
shall redeem all of the Stock Units then credited to the Participants Account as of the date of
such Separation from Service, based on the Unit Value of the Stock Units credited to the
Participants Account as of the date of the Participants Separation from Service. An amount equal
to 65% of the aggregate Unit Value will be paid in the form of whole Shares (with fractional Shares
paid in cash), and the remaining 35% of the aggregate Unit Value will be paid in cash, within 30
business days after the date of the Participants Separation from Service.
(c) Change of Control. In the event of a Change of Control, the Company shall redeem all the
Stock Units then credited to the Participants Account. The redemption amount shall be paid in
cash on the closing date of the Change of Control (except as described below). The amount paid
shall equal the product of the number of Stock Units being redeemed multiplied by the Unit Value at
the date of the Change of Control. However, in the event that the transaction constituting a
Change of Control is not a change in control event under section 409A of the Code, the
Participants Stock Units shall be redeemed and paid in cash upon Separation from Service or death
on the applicable date described in subsection (a) or (b) above (based on the aggregate Unit Value
on the date of Separation from Service or death as determined by the Committee), instead of upon
the Change of Control pursuant to this subsection (c). If payment is delayed after the Change of
Control, pursuant to the preceding sentence, the Committee may provide for the Stock Units to be
valued as of the date of the Change of Control and interest to be credited on the amount so
determined at a market rate for the period between the Change of Control date and the payment date.
(d) Effect on Outstanding Stock Units and Dividend Equivalents. The provisions of this
Section 4 relating to the medium of payment (i.e., payment in cash or in a combination of
cash and Shares) shall apply to all outstanding Stock Units and Dividend Equivalents.
(e) Section 409A. Stock Units and Dividend Equivalents shall meet the requirements of section
409A of the Internal Revenue Code or an exemption from such requirements. All Stock Units and
Dividend Equivalents that were earned and vested as of December 31, 2004 shall be administered in
accordance with their terms as in effect on October 3, 2004, except for changes that are not
considered material modifications under the regulations issued under section 409A of the Internal
Revenue Code.
(f) Deferral Elections. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Non-Employee Director may make a
one-time, irrevocable election to elect to have all of the Non-Employee Directors Stock Units
credited to the Non-Employee Directors account under the Deferral Plan on the date of the
Non-Employee Directors Separation from Service, in lieu of the redemption and payments described
in subsections (a), (b) and (c). If the Non-Employee Director makes a deferral election, the
Non-Employee Directors Stock Units will be credited to the Non-Employee Directors account under
the Deferral Plan at Separation from Service and the amount credited to the Deferral Plan shall be
distributed in accordance with the provisions of the Deferral Plan. If the Non-Employee Director
makes a deferral election and a Change of Control occurs: (i) subsection (c) above shall apply if
the Change of Control occurs before the Non-Employee Directors Separation from Service and (ii)
the terms of the Deferral Plan shall apply if the Change of Control occurs after or simultaneously
with the Non-Employee Directors Separation from Service. An election under this subsection (f)
shall be made in writing, on a form and at a time prescribed by the Committee and shall be irrevocable upon submission to the
Corporate Secretary.
