Transactions with Related Parties | (9) Transactions with Related Parties For the nine months ended September 30, 2013, the Partnership incurred $0.05 million of expenses related to a management fee under an agreement between USA Compression Holdings, LLC and certain of its affiliates. No management fees were incurred during the nine months ended September 30, 2014. William Shea, who has served as a director of USA Compression GP, LLC since June 2011, also served as a director and the chief executive officer of the general partner of PVR Partners, L.P. (“PVR”) starting in March 2010. On March 21, 2014, PVR merged with and into Regency Energy Partners LP, a Delaware limited partnership (“Regency”), with Regency as the surviving limited partnership (the “Merger”). As a result of the Merger, the separate limited partnership existence of PVR ceased, and Regency continued its existence as the surviving limited partnership. For the three months ended September 30, 2013, subsidiaries of PVR made compression service payments to us of approximately $0.8 million. For the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, subsidiaries of PVR made compression service payments to us of approximately $0.6 million and $2.2 million, respectively. The Partnership provides compression services to entities controlled by Riverstone, who owned a majority of the membership interest in USA Compression Holdings, which owns and controls the General Partner and owned 41.7% of our limited partner interests at November 6, 2014. For each of the three months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, such controlled entities made compression service payments to the Partnership of approximately $0.1 million. For each of the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, such controlled entities made compression service payments to the Partnership of approximately $0.3 million and $0.4 million, respectively. The Partnership may provide compression services to additional entities controlled by Riverstone in the future; any significant transactions will be disclosed.
