16.  TRANSACTIONS RELATED TO THE PARTNERSHIP

 

In March 2012, we sold to the Partnership contract operations customer service agreements with 39 customers and a fleet of 406 compressor units used to provide compression services under those agreements, comprising approximately 188,000 horsepower, or 5% (by then available horsepower) of our and the Partnership’s combined U.S. contract operations business. In addition, the assets sold included 139 compressor units, comprising approximately 75,000 horsepower, that we previously leased to the Partnership, and a natural gas processing plant with a capacity of 10 million cubic feet per day used to provide processing services to a customer pursuant to a long-term services agreement. Total consideration for the transaction was approximately $182.8 million, excluding transaction costs, and included the Partnership’s payment of $77.4 million in cash and assumption of $105.4 million of our debt. In connection with this transaction, we entered into an amendment to our omnibus agreement with the Partnership that, among other things, increased the cap on selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) costs we allocate to the Partnership based on such costs we incur on the Partnership’s behalf and extended the term of the caps on the Partnership’s obligation to reimburse us for SG&A costs and operating costs we allocate to the Partnership based on such costs we incur on the Partnership’s behalf for an additional year such that the caps will now terminate on December 31, 2013.

 

In March 2012, the Partnership sold, pursuant to a public underwritten offering, 4,965,000 common units representing limited partner interests in the Partnership, including 465,000 common units sold pursuant to an over-allotment option. The Partnership used the $114.5 million of net proceeds from this offering to repay borrowings outstanding under its revolving credit facility. In connection with this sale and as permitted under the Partnership’s partnership agreement, the Partnership issued and sold to Exterran General Partner, L.P. (“GP”), our wholly-owned subsidiary and the Partnership’s general partner, approximately 101,000 general partner units in consideration of the continuation of GP’s approximate 2.0% general partner interest in the Partnership. The change in our ownership interest of the Partnership resulting from the sale of the common units resulted in adjustments to noncontrolling interest, accumulated other comprehensive income, deferred income taxes and additional paid-in capital to reflect our new ownership percentage in the Partnership.

 

In June 2011, we sold to the Partnership contract operations customer service agreements with 34 customers and a fleet of 407 compressor units used to provide compression services under those agreements, comprising approximately 289,000 horsepower, or 8% (by then available horsepower) of our and the Partnership’s combined U.S. contract operations business (the “June 2011 Contract Operations Acquisition”). In addition, the assets sold included 207 compressor units, comprising approximately 98,000 horsepower, that we previously leased to the Partnership, and a natural gas processing plant with a capacity of 8 million cubic feet per day used to provide processing services pursuant to a long-term services agreement. Total consideration for the transaction was approximately $223.0 million, excluding transaction costs. In connection with this acquisition, the Partnership assumed $159.4 million of our debt, paid us $62.2 million in cash and issued approximately 51,000 general partner units to GP.

 

In May 2011, the Partnership sold, pursuant to a public underwritten offering, 5,134,175 common units representing limited partner interests in the Partnership, including 134,175 common units sold pursuant to an over-allotment option. The Partnership used the $127.7 million of net proceeds from this offering (i) to repay approximately $64.8 million of borrowings outstanding under its revolving credit facility and (ii) for general partnership purposes, including to fund a portion of the consideration for the June 2011 Contract Operations Acquisition. In connection with this sale and as permitted under the Partnership’s partnership agreement, the Partnership issued and sold to GP approximately 53,000 general partner units in consideration of the continuation of GP’s approximate 2.0% general partner interest in the Partnership.

 

In March 2011, we sold, pursuant to a public underwritten offering, 5,914,466 common units representing limited partner interests in the Partnership, including 664,466 common units sold pursuant to an over-allotment option. We used the $162.2 million of net proceeds received from the sale of the common units to repay borrowings under our revolving credit facility and term loan. The change in our ownership interest of the Partnership resulting from the sale of the common units resulted in adjustments to noncontrolling interest, accumulated other comprehensive income, deferred income taxes and additional paid-in capital to reflect our new ownership percentage in the Partnership.
