Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

On May 18, 2026, J. Carney Hawks was removed from the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Ferrellgas, Inc., the general partner (the “General Partner”) of Ferrellgas Partners, L.P. and Ferrellgas, L.P. (collectively, the “Company”). Mr. Hawks’ removal was not related to any disagreement with the Company on any matter relating to the Company’s operations, policies or practices. Mr. Hawks was originally appointed to the Board in 2021 in accordance with the terms of the Partnership Agreement of Ferrellgas Partners, L.P., the bylaws of Ferrellgas, Inc., and a voting agreement among Ferrellgas, Inc., Ferrell Companies, Inc. (the sole shareholder of Ferrellgas, Inc.) and the holders of Class B Units of Ferrellgas Partners, L.P., pursuant to which holders of such Class B Units were permitted to designate one independent director to the Board. As previously reported, on March 16, 2026, all of the outstanding Class B Units were converted into Class A Units of Ferrellgas Partners, L.P., and therefore the right of holders of Class B Units to designate a director no longer applies.
