FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE - July 15, 1998
Lebanon, Missouri
All Star Gas Corporation announced today that it expects to use a
portion of its 30 day grace period to pay interest on its $127,200,000
principal amount of its 12-7/8% Senior Secured Notes due 2004.
On July 15, 1998, the Company advised the Trustee, State Street
Bank, that the $4.5 million dollar payment would be paid within the 30 day
grace period. The Company cited unusually warm weather, lower petroleum
prices which have caused a decrease in customer demand for pre-paid gas
contracts and delays in several sale transactions for its temporary
shortage in cash flow. The Company fully intends to make the required
payment within the grace period allowed.
