Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On March 21, 2014, UGI Europe, Inc. ("UGIE"), an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of UGI Corporation (the "Company"), entered into a 30 day Term Loan Facility Agreement, by and between UGIE, as borrower, the Company, as guarantor, and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, London Branch ("Wells Fargo"), as creditor (the "Term Loan Facility Agreement"). The Term Loan Facility Agreement provides for a 256,000,000 Euro term loan facility and generally bears interest at a rate per annum that is the aggregate of LIBOR plus 1.25% per annum and any related costs. The Term Loan Facility Agreement terminates on April 20, 2014, but UGIE may prepay the Term Loan, in whole or in part, without any penalty. The proceeds from the Term Loan Facility Agreement will be used for general corporate purposes.

The Term Loan Facility Agreement includes the usual and customary covenants for credit facilities of this type, including, among others, covenants relating to compliance with laws, the payment or making of any debt obligations, notification of litigation or other proceedings, maintenance of UGIE’s business, maintenance of insurance, maintenance of property and assets, maintenance of books and records, and issuance of securities. The Term Loan Facility Agreement also contains events of default customary for such financings, the occurrence of which would permit the creditor to accelerate the amount due thereunder or cancel the creditor’s obligations pursuant to the Term Loan Facility Agreement. Such events of default include, without limitation, failure to pay principal and interest on the due date, failure to comply with a covenant beyond any applicable grace period, default beyond the applicable grace period for payments on other borrowings, an event or series of events that makes it impossible or unlawful to perform or comply with certain obligations under the Term Loan Facility Agreement, certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency of UGIE, a default in the Guaranty (as more fully described below), and a change in control.

On March 21, 2014, the Company also entered into a Guaranty in favor of Wells Fargo (the "Guaranty"), as primary obligor of UGIE’s payment obligations and payment liabilities arising under the Term Loan Facility Agreement. Pursuant to the Guaranty, the Company unconditionally guarantees the punctual payment when due of all of UGIE’s payment obligations and payment liabilities, including any interest and fees, in accordance with the terms of the Term Loan Facility Agreement. The Guaranty remains in full force and effect until all obligations under the Term Loan Facility Agreement have been paid in full.





Item 2.03 Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.

The disclosure required by this item is included in Item 1.01 above and incorporated herein by reference.
