Item 5.    Other Events and Required FD Disclosure.

On April 2, 2004, a term sheet was signed to settle two class-action lawsuits filed in 2001 against Agrico Chemical Company, a subsidiary of Phosphate Resource Partners Limited Partnership (PLP), and unrelated defendants, including ConocoPhillips, regarding a former Agrico fertilizer plant in Pensacola, Florida. 

The term sheet provides that the defendants collectively will pay a total of $65 million to class members in Pensacola to address concerns regarding impacts to property and an additional $3.5 million to fund a voluntary medical monitoring program.  The defendants also will reimburse plaintiff attorneys' fees and costs, once those have been requested from and approved by a Florida Circuit Court (Circuit Court).  The parties have begun drafting definitive agreements reflecting the settlement terms, which must still be approved by the Circuit Court.  As such, the full terms of the settlement are not yet final.

The settlement payment is expected to negatively impact PLP's 2004 first quarter results by an estimated 10 cents per unit.
