Item 5.07Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders

On May 15, 2018, Suburban Propane Partners, L.P. (the “Partnership”) held its regular Tri-Annual Meeting (the “Meeting”) of its limited partners (“Unitholders”).

At the Meeting, the Unitholders re-elected to the Board of Supervisors, for a three-year term, all eight nominees proposed by the Board:

At the Meeting, the Unitholders also approved the following proposals:

The ratification of the appointment of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as the Partnership’s independent registered public accounting firm for the Partnership’s 2018 fiscal year:

 

The approval of the Partnership’s 2018 Restricted Unit Plan, authorizing the issuance of up to 1,800,000 Common Units pursuant to awards granted under that Plan:

The approval of an advisory resolution approving executive compensation (commonly referred to as “Say-on-Pay”):

Because the Partnership’s partnership agreement provides for Tri-Annual Meetings of the Unitholders (once every 3 years), no proposal regarding the frequency of Say-on-Pay resolutions was presented to the Unitholders at the Meeting.  The Partnership will, for so long as required by applicable law, include a Say-on-Pay proposal at each Tri-Annual Meeting.
