Related Party Transactions	RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS Well Operations and Land Related Activity During each of the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, certain of the Company’s directors, officers, their immediate family members, and entities affiliated or controlled by such parties (“Related Party Working Interest Owners”) owned non-operated working interests in certain of the oil and natural gas properties that the Company operates and engaged in certain other land related activities with the Company. The revenues disbursed and other payments made to such Related Party Working Interest Owners for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 totaled $2.6 million and $0.5 million, respectively. As a result of this ownership, from time to time, the Company will be in a net receivable or net payable position with these individuals and entities. The Company does not consider any net receivables from these parties to be uncollectible. Spraberry Production Services, LLC As discussed in Note 2—Summary of Accounting Policies, Parsley LLC indirectly owns a 42.5% interest in SPS. The Company accounts for this investment using the equity method. Using the equity method of accounting results in transactions between the Company and SPS and its subsidiaries being accounted for as related party transactions. During the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company incurred charges totaling $0.8 million and $1.5 million, respectively, for services performed by SPS for the Company’s well operations and drilling activities. Exchange Right In accordance with the terms of the Parsley LLC Agreement, the PE Unitholders (other than the Company) generally have the right to exchange their PE Units (and a corresponding number of shares of Class B common stock) for shares of Class A common stock at an exchange ratio of one share of Class A common stock for each PE Unit (and corresponding share of Class B common stock) exchanged (subject to customary conversion rate adjustments for stock splits, stock dividends and reclassifications) or, if the Company or Parsley LLC so elects, cash. As a PE Unitholder exchanges its PE Units, the Company’s interest in Parsley LLC correspondingly increases. Refer to Note 9—Equity—Noncontrolling Interests for additional discussion. During the three months ended March 31, 2019, a PE Unitholder that was an executive officer of the Company elected to exchange 420,000 PE Units (and a corresponding number of shares of Class B common stock) for 420,000 shares of Class A common stock.
