 Exhibit 10.3 
 PVG GP, LLC 
 AMENDED AND RESTATED LONG-TERM INCENTIVE PLAN 
 RESTRICTED UNIT AWARD AGREEMENT 
 THIS
RESTRICTED UNIT AWARD AGREEMENT is made as of «Date» (the “Effective Date”) between PVG GP, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Company”), and «Name» (“Employee”). 
 1. Award of Units. As of the Effective Date, the Company hereby grants to Employee «Units» common units of Penn Virginia GP
Holdings, L.P. (“Units”) pursuant to the PVG GP, LLC Amended and Restated Long-Term Incentive Plan, as amended and restated effective January 1, 2008 (the “Plan”). Employee agrees that this award of Units shall be subject to
all of the terms and conditions set forth herein and in the Plan, including any future amendments thereto, which Plan is incorporated herein by reference as a part of this Agreement. In the event of any conflict between the terms of this Agreement
and the Plan, the terms of the Plan shall govern. All terms capitalized but not defined herein will have the meanings assigned to them in the Plan. 
 2. Forfeiture Restrictions. The Units granted to Employee pursuant to this Agreement may not be sold, assigned, pledged, exchanged, hypothecated or otherwise transferred, encumbered or disposed of to the extent then subject to
the Forfeiture Restrictions (as hereinafter defined), and in the event of Employee’s termination from the Company for any reason (other than as described below), Employee shall automatically upon such termination, for no consideration, forfeit
to the Company all Units to the extent then subject to the Forfeiture Restrictions. The prohibition against transfer and the obligation to forfeit and surrender Units to the Company upon termination from the Company are herein referred to as
“Forfeiture Restrictions,” and the Units which are then subject to the Forfeiture Restrictions are herein sometimes referred to as “Restricted Units.” The Forfeiture Restrictions shall be binding upon and enforceable against any
transferee of the Units. The Forfeiture Restrictions shall lapse as to Restricted Units issued to Employee pursuant to this Agreement as follows: (a) as to one-third (1/3) of the Restricted Units granted to Employee hereunder, on the first
anniversary of the Effective Date; (b) as to an additional one-third (1/3) of the Restricted Units granted to Employee hereunder, on the second anniversary of the Effective Date; and (c) as to the remaining one-third (1/3) of the
Restricted Units granted to Employee hereunder, on the third anniversary of the Effective Date; provided however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, the Forfeiture Restrictions shall lapse as to all of the Restricted Units on the date a Change of
Control occurs or upon the death or Retirement of Employee. 
 3. Certificates. A certificate evidencing the Restricted Units
shall be issued in Employee’s name, pursuant to which Employee shall have voting rights and shall be entitled to receive all distributions on such Units free and clear of any Forfeiture Restrictions. The certificate shall bear the following
legend: 
 The Units evidenced by this certificate have been issued pursuant to an agreement made as of «Date»,
a copy of which is attached hereto and incorporated herein, between the Company and the registered holder of the Units, and are subject to forfeiture to the Company under certain circumstances described in such agreement. The sale, assignment,
pledge or other transfer of the Units evidenced by this certificate is prohibited under the terms and conditions of such agreement, and such Units may not be sold, assigned, pledged or otherwise transferred except as provided in such agreement. 

 The Company may cause the certificate to be delivered upon issuance to the Secretary of the Company as a
depository for safekeeping until the forfeiture occurs or the Forfeiture Restrictions lapse pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. Upon request of the Company, Employee shall deliver to the Company a unit power, endorsed in blank, relating to the
Restricted Units then subject to the Forfeiture Restrictions. Upon the lapse of the Forfeiture Restrictions without forfeiture, the Company shall cause a new certificate or certificates to be issued for the remaining Units without legend in the name
of Employee in exchange for the certificate evidencing the Restricted Units; provided, that the Company may cause such Units without legend to be uncertificated. 
 4. Consideration. It is understood that the consideration for the issuance of Restricted Units shall be Employee’s agreement to render future services as Employee of the Company. 
 5. Status of Units. Employee agrees that the Restricted Units will not be sold or otherwise disposed of in any manner that would constitute
a violation of any applicable federal or state securities laws. Employee also agrees that (i) the certificates representing the Restricted Units may bear such legend or legends as the Committee deems appropriate in order to ensure compliance
with applicable securities laws, (ii) Penn Virginia GP Holdings, L.P. may refuse to register the transfer of the Restricted Units on the unit transfer records of Penn Virginia GP Holdings, L.P. if such proposed transfer would in the opinion of
counsel satisfactory to Penn Virginia GP Holdings, L.P. constitute a violation of any applicable securities law, and (iii) Penn Virginia GP Holdings L.P. may give related stop transfer instructions to its transfer agent. 
 6. Committee’s Powers. No provision contained in this Agreement shall in any way terminate, modify or alter, or be construed or
interpreted as terminating, modifying or altering any of the powers, rights or authority vested in the Committee pursuant to the terms of the Plan, including, without limitation, the Committee’s rights to make certain determinations and
elections with respect to the Restricted Units. 
 7. Binding Effect. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the
benefit of any successors to the Company and all persons lawfully claiming under Employee. 
 8. Non-Alienation. To the extent
subject to the Forfeiture Restrictions, Employee shall not have any right to pledge, hypothecate, anticipate or assign this Agreement or the rights with respect to Units granted hereunder, except by will or the laws of descent and distribution.

 9. No Membership Rights Conferred. This Agreement shall not be deemed to (i) confer upon Employee any right with
respect to continuation of employment or (ii) affect the terms and conditions of any other agreement between the Company and Employee except as expressly provided herein. 
  

 2 

 10. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which
shall be deemed to be an original, but all of which together will constitute one and the same Agreement. 
 11. Governing Law.
This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware. 
 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company
has caused this Agreement to be duly executed by an officer thereunto duly authorized, and Employee has executed this Agreement, all effective as of the Effective Date.

Eligibility. Each Non-Employee Director who is selected by the Committee shall be eligible to become a Participant by submitting a Deferral Agreement in accordance with Section 3.2. An eligible Director shall remain eligible to submit a
Deferral Agreement until such time as the Committee affirmatively revokes such Director’s eligibility. Eligible Directors, whether their eligibility has been revoked or not, shall remain Participants in the Plan until such time as all benefits
payable under the Plan have been paid in accordance with the provisions hereof or the Plan has been terminated in accordance with Article X.

Agreement in the form and manner prescribed by the Committee and in accordance with the restrictions described in this Section 3.2. A Director may separately elect to defer Unit Awards (both Common Units and Restricted Units) and Fees.

 (a) Newly Eligible Directors. Each Director who first becomes eligible to participate in the Plan after January 1 of a Plan
Year may elect to participate in the Plan by delivering an executed Deferral Agreement to the Committee within thirty (30) days after the Committee notifies the Director of his or her eligibility to participate. Such Deferral Agreement shall be
effective with regard to the Fees earned and Unit Awards that are to be granted for periods beginning on the effective date of such Director’s Deferral Agreement. 
 (b) Previously Eligible Directors. Except as provided in Section 3.2(a) above, an eligible Director may make a deferral election with respect to a subsequent Plan Year by delivering an executed Deferral

Participant for services to be 

  

 - 5 - 

 
performed during a Plan Year. The Participant’s executed Deferral Agreement, delivered to the Committee in accordance with the provisions of
Section 3.2, shall set forth an exact whole dollar amount or a whole percentage of Fees to be deferred. A Fee Deferral election with respect to any Plan Year is irrevocable once the applicable executed Deferral Agreement is delivered to the
Committee. A Fee Deferral election shall be automatically revoked in the event the Director is permitted to take a distribution due to financial hardship. Such a Director shall not be eligible to make a new Fee Deferral election under the Plan.

 (b) The amount of any Fees deferred with respect to any Plan Year shall reduce the amount of such Fees otherwise payable to the
Participant as of the date such payment otherwise would have been made, and the amount of such reduction shall be allocated to the Participant’s Account effective as of the date the applicable Fees would otherwise have been payable. 

(c) In determining the percentage amount of any Fee Deferral, the Participant’s full Fee shall be considered without regard to any deferrals made
under the Plan. In no event shall a Participant be permitted to make Fee Deferrals that exceed 100% of his or her Fees. 
 4.2. Unit Award
Deferrals. 
 (a) A Participant may separately elect to defer the receipt of all or a portion of Unit Awards under the LTIP. The
Participant’s executed Deferral Agreement, delivered to the Committee in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.2, shall set forth a whole number or percentage of the type of Unit Award to be deferred. A Unit Award Deferral election
with respect to a Plan Year is irrevocable once the applicable executed Deferral Agreement is delivered to the Committee. A Unit Award Deferral election shall be automatically revoked in the event the Director is permitted to take a distribution due
to financial hardship. Such a Director shall not be eligible to make a new Unit Award Deferral election under the Plan. 
 (b) The amount of
any Unit Awards deferred with respect to any Plan Year shall reduce the amount of such Unit Awards otherwise due to the Participant as of the date such Unit Awards otherwise would have been made, and the amount of such reduction shall be allocated
to the Participant’s Account effective as of the date the applicable Unit Award would otherwise have been made. 
 (c) A Common Unit
shall be credited as a DCU to the Participant’s Account. 
 (d) A Restricted Unit shall be credited as a DRU to the Participant’s
Account. 
 4.3. Automatic Unit Distribution Deferral. 
 (a) If a Participant elects to defer the receipt of any Unit Awards in accordance with Section 4.2, such Participant automatically shall be deemed to have elected to 

  

 - 6 - 

 
defer the receipt of each Unit Distribution payable with respect to the underlying Unit Award deferred hereunder. 
 (b) Any Unit Distribution deferred in accordance with this shall be credited to a Participant’s Account in the same manner as Fee Deferrals.

 ARTICLE V 
 DETERMINATION OF
ACCOUNTS 
 5.1. Account Establishment. The Committee shall establish an Account on behalf of each Participant. The
establishment of an Account shall not require segregation of any funds of the Company or provide any Participant with any rights to any assets of the Company, except as a general creditor thereof. A Participant shall have no right to receive payment
of any amount credited to the Participant’s Account except as expressly provided in Article VI of this Plan. 
 5.2. Deferrals.
Each Participant’s Account as of the Valuation Date shall consist of Fee Deferrals, DRUs and DCUs credited to the Participant’s Account. Each Account shall consist of such subaccounts as the Committee deems necessary or desirable to
determine the amounts payable by Tranche if different distribution elections apply with respect to such Tranches. 
 5.3. Earnings on Fee
Deferrals and Unit Distributions. The Fee Deferrals and Unit Distribution portion of a Participant’s Account shall be credited with earnings quarterly, as if the balance of that portion of such Participant’s Account which represents
Fee Deferrals and Unit Distributions as of the first day of such quarter on the first day of each quarter has been invested at a rate equal to the prime rate as correctly published in the Wall Street Journal on the last business day of the
immediately preceding quarter. 
 5.4. Distributions. Any Unit Distributions payable with respect to Units underlying DRUs or DCUs,
shall be credited with interest in the same manner as Fee Deferrals as described in Section 5.3. 
 5.5. Adjustments. In the
event of any distribution (whether in the form of cash, Common Units, other securities, or other property), recapitalization, split, reverse split, reorganization, merger, consolidation, split-up, spin-off combination, repurchase, or exchange of
Common Units or other securities of the Partnership, issuance of warrants or other rights to purchase Common Units or other securities of the Partnership, or other similar transaction or event affecting the Common Units, then the Committee shall, in
such manner as it may deem equitable, in order to prevent dilution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended to be made available under the LTIP, adjust any or all of (i) the number and type of Common Units (or other
securities or property) with respect to which Unit Awards may be granted, and (ii) the number and type of Common Units (or other securities or property) subject to outstanding Unit Awards; provided, that the number of Common Units subject to
any Unit Award shall always be a whole number.

 6.2. DCUs. A Participant shall be
one hundred percent (100%) vested at all times in the DCUs credited to the Participant’s Account.

credited to a Participant’s Account shall be subject to the same vesting and forfeiture restrictions that apply to the underlying Restricted Units on which such DRU is credited. 
 6.4. Unit Distributions. Unit Distributions paid with respect to any Unit underlying a DCU or DRU will be 100% vested at all times. 
 6.5. Change of Control. Upon a Change of Control, all DRUs credited to a Participant’s Account shall automatically vest and become payable in
full in accordance with the terms of the Long-Term Incentive Plan. For this purpose, DRUs shall only be paid if the transaction constituting a Change of Control is a “change in control event” within the meaning of section 409A of the Code
and the regulations thereunder. 
 ARTICLE VII 
 DISTRIBUTIONS 
 7.1. Normal Distribution Date. Unless the Participant has elected another
available distribution date in his or her executed Deferral Agreement or the Participant dies prior to such date, the vested portion of a Participant’s Account shall be distributed to the Participant on the Participant’s Normal
Distribution Date. 
 7.2. Alternative Distribution Election. For each Plan Year, a Participant may elect to receive
benefit distributions under the Plan on a date selected in the Participant’s Deferral Agreement for the applicable Plan Year. In no event shall the date selected be earlier than the first day of the calendar year beginning after the third
anniversary of the filing of the applicable Deferral Agreement under Section 3.2. A Participant may file an amendment to defer further the receipt of a Tranche (and earnings credited thereon) (or a portion of the Tranche) under this paragraph
only three times, and each amendment (a) must provide for a payout under this Section at a date at least sixty (60) months after the payout date under the election in force for such Tranche immediately prior to the filing of such an
amendment, (b) must be filed with the Committee at least twelve (12) months prior to the date on which the first scheduled payment was to occur under the election then in force and (c) may not take effect until at least twelve
(12) months after the date on which the election is made. Any such election change shall be made in accordance with the requirements of section 409A of the Code and the regulations thereunder and no subsequent election may result in an
impermissible acceleration of payment as described in section 409A of the Code and the regulations thereunder.  
  

 - 8 - 

 7.3. Hardship Withdrawals. The Committee shall establish procedures under which a Participant may
request a withdrawal of some or all of the Participant’s Account in the event of an unforeseeable severe financial emergency. In general, an unforeseeable severe financial emergency would include circumstances resulting from a sudden and
unexpected illness or accident of the Participant or of the Participant’s spouse or dependent, uninsured loss of the Participant’s property due to casualty, or other similar extraordinary and unforeseeable circumstances arising as a result
of events beyond the control of the Participant and for which the resulting financial hardship cannot be reasonably relieved through other sources of funds or by cessation of deferrals under this Plan. The Committee, in its sole and absolute
discretion, shall determine whether any such financial emergency warrants a withdrawal from the Participant’s Account and shall determine the amount of such withdrawal so as to limit the withdrawal to that amount (including a reasonable amount
for taxes) that is required to satisfy the emergency need. In no event shall DRUs be subject to hardship withdrawals prior to the expiration of any restrictions on the underlying Restricted Units. The Committee shall administer hardship withdrawals
in accordance with the provisions of section 409A(a)(2)(B)(ii) of the Code. 
 7.4. Death Benefits. Notwithstanding Sections 7.1 and
7.2, upon the death of a Participant, the Company shall pay to the Participant’s Beneficiary the vested portion of the Participant’s Account within ninety (90) days following the date of the Participant’s death. 
 7.5. Form of Payment. 
 (a) Fee
Deferrals and Unit Distributions. Fee Deferrals, Unit Distributions and earnings credited thereon shall be paid in a cash lump sum. 
 (b) Unit Award Deferrals. Unit Award Deferrals shall be payable in Units in accordance with the terms of the LTIP with respect to the type of Unit awarded (Restricted Unit or Common Unit). 
 7.6. Special 409A Transition Election. In accordance with procedures and in a form established by the Committee, to the extent permitted under
section 409A of the Code and the regulations issued thereunder, a Participant may make a one-time special election to change the date of distribution with respect to all or a portion of his Account on or before December 31, 2007 on such terms
as shall be determined by the Committee; provided, however, that such one-time special election may not postpone a distribution that otherwise would be made in 2007 and may not accelerate a distribution otherwise scheduled for a later year into
2007. 
 ARTICLE VIII 
 NO FUNDING

 The obligations of the Company to distribute benefits under this Plan shall be interpreted solely as an unfunded, contractual obligation
to distribute only those amounts credited to the Participant’s Account pursuant to Article V in the manner and under the conditions prescribed in Articles VI and VII. Any assets set aside, including any assets transferred to a grantor trust or
purchased by the Company with respect to amounts payable under the Plan, shall be subject to the claims of the Company’s general creditors, and no person other than the Company shall, by virtue of the provisions of the Plan, have any interest
in such

assets. All amounts deferred pursuant to this Plan may, in the Committee’s discretion, be transferred to an irrevocable grantor trust as soon as
practicable after such amounts are allocated to a Participant’s Account pursuant to Article IV. 
 ARTICLE IX 
 ADMINISTRATION 
 9.1. Administration.
The Plan shall be administered by the Committee. The Committee shall have authority to act to the full extent of its absolute discretion to: 
 (a) interpret the Plan; 
 (b) resolve and determine all disputes, questions or claims arising under the Plan, including the power
to determine the rights of Participants and Beneficiaries, and their respective benefits, and to remedy any ambiguities, inconsistencies or omissions in the Plan; 
 (c) create and revise rules and procedures for the administration of the Plan and prescribe such forms as may be required for Participants to make elections under, and otherwise participate in, the Plan; and

 9.2. Administrative Review. Except as the Committee may otherwise determine, all decisions and determinations by the Committee shall be final and
binding upon all Participants and Beneficiaries. 
 9.3. General. No member of the Committee shall participate in any matter involving
any questions or decisions relating solely to his or her own participation or benefits under the Plan. The Committee shall be entitled to rely conclusively upon, and shall be fully protected in any action or omission taken by it in good faith
reliance upon the advice or opinion of any persons, firms or agents retained by it, including but not limited to accountants, actuaries, counsel and other specialists. Nothing in this Plan shall preclude the Company from indemnifying the members of
the Committee for all actions under this Plan, or from purchasing liability insurance to protect such persons with respect to the Plan. 
 ARTICLE X 
 AMENDMENT, DISCONTINUANCE AND TERMINATION 
 Except as required by the rules of the principal securities exchange on which the Common Units are traded, the Board or the Committee shall have the right to amend, modify, discontinue or terminate the Plan in any
manner; provided, however, that no amendment, modification, discontinuance or termination shall adversely affect the rights of Participants to

amounts credited to the Accounts maintained on their behalf before such amendment, modification, discontinuance or termination. In the case of termination of
the Plan, any amounts credited to the Account of a Participant may, in the sole discretion of the Committee, be distributed in full to such Participant as soon as reasonably practicable following such termination; provided, that any such
distribution shall be made in accordance with the applicable requirements of Treas. Reg. section 1.409A-3(j)(4)(ix). 
 ARTICLE XI 

MISCELLANEOUS 
 11.1. No Rights to Board
Membership. Nothing in the Plan shall confer on any Director any right to continue as a member of the Board of the Company or its subsidiaries or interfere in any way with the right of the Company, its subsidiaries and each of their equity
holders to remove or not re-elect an individual from or to the Board. 
 11.2. Rights of Participants to Benefits. All rights of a
Participant under the Plan to amounts credited to the Participant’s Account are mere unsecured contractual rights of the Participant (or his or her Beneficiary) against the Company.

involuntary alienation, sale, transfer, assignment, pledge, attachment, garnishment, execution, or encumbrance, and any attempt to accomplish the same shall be void. 
 11.4. Withholding. The Company shall have the right to deduct from any distribution made hereunder any taxes required by law to be withheld from a Participant with respect to such payment, and, shall have the
right, in accordance with this Section and Section 8(b) of the Long-Term Incentive Plan, to require that a portion of a Participant’s Account distribution (in cash, Common Units or other property) be payable as may be necessary in the
opinion of the Company to satisfy its withholding obligations for the payment of such taxes.

(as determined by the Committee), each Participant shall receive a statement indicating the amounts (and earnings thereupon, if applicable) credited to and payable from the Participant’s Account.

insurance agreement or other retirement plan of the Company.

applicable requirements of section 409A of the Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder, and shall be administered in accordance with section 409A of the Code to the extent section 409A of the Code applies to the Plan. All payments to be made
upon a termination of employment or service under the Plan shall only be made upon a “separation from service” under section 409A of the Code. Notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary, deferral elections and distributions from
the Plan shall only be made in a manner and upon an event permitted by section 409A of the Code. Except with respect to elections made in accordance with Article VII, in no event shall a Participant, directly or indirectly, designate the calendar
