NEW YORK, Oct. 10, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Bronstein, Gewirtz & Grossman, LLC is investigating potential claims against the Board of Directors of PVR Partners, L.P. ("PVR" or the "Company") (NYSE: PVR) related to the proposed acquisition of the Company by Regency Energy Partners LP (NYSE: RGP). The transaction is valued at around $5.6 billion, including the assumption of debt.

This investigation concerns whether the Board of Directors of PVR breached their fiduciary duties to stockholders by failing to adequately shop the Company before agreeing to enter into the proposed transaction, and whether the Company has disclosed all material information to shareholders about the transaction.

Under the terms of the agreement, PVR holders will get 1.02 common units of Regency for each unit they own and a one-time cash payment estimated at about $40 million in total, the companies said in a joint statement on October 10, 2013. The $28.68-per-unit offer represents a 26 percent premium based on October 9, 2013's closing prices. Dallas-based Regency will assume about $1.8 billion of debt.
