Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure

On June 27, 2013, Suburban Propane Partners, L.P. (NYSE: SPH) issued a notice of partial redemption for $133.4 million aggregate principal amount of its outstanding 7 3/8% Senior Notes due 2021 (the “2021 Notes”) at a cash redemption price equal to 107.375% of the principal amount of the 2021 Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the redemption date (the “Redemption Price”). The redemption date will be August 2, 2013 (the “Redemption Date”). Upon completion of the redemption, approximately $370.0 million aggregate principal amount of the 2021 Notes will remain outstanding.

Payment of the Redemption Price will be made on or after the Redemption Date only upon presentation and surrender of the 2021 Notes to the paying agent. Interest on the 2021 Notes called for redemption will cease to accrue on and after the Redemption Date. The notice of partial redemption will be sent by The Bank of New York Mellon, the trustee for the 2021 Notes, to the registered holders of the 2021 Notes.

A copy of the press release is attached to this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference. A copy of the notice of partial redemption is attached to this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 99.2 and is incorporated herein by reference.
