For purposes hereof, a Person shall become a party to the Credit Agreement as amended hereby and a Tranche B Term Loan Lender as of the Effective Date by executing and delivering to the Administrative Agent, on or prior to the Effective Date, a Lender Addendum (Additional Tranche B Term Loan Lender) in its capacity as a Tranche B Term Loan Lender. For the avoidance of doubt, the existing Term Loans of a Continuing Tranche B Term Loan Lender must be continued in whole and may not be continued in part unless otherwise notified by the Administrative Agent prior to the Effective Date to give effect to any cash prepayment of the Tranche B Term Loans to be made by the Borrower on the Effective Date.

3.3    Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the provisions of the Credit Agreement with respect to indemnification, reimbursement of costs and expenses, increased costs and break funding payments (other than to the extent waived pursuant to Section 3.2) shall continue in full force and effect with respect to, and for the benefit of, each existing Tranche B Term Loan Lender in respect of such Lender’s existing Term Loans to the same extent expressly set forth therein. 

3.4    Notwithstanding anything in this Amendment to the contrary, the continuation of existing Tranche B Term Loans may be implemented pursuant to other procedures specified by the Administrative Agent, including by replacement of such existing Tranche B Term Loans by a deemed repayment of such existing Tranche B Term Loans of a Continuing Tranche B Term Loan Lender followed by a subsequent deemed assignment to it of new Tranche B Term Loans in the same amount. 

3.5    For the avoidance of doubt, the Lenders hereby acknowledge and agree that, at the sole option of the Administrative Agent, any Lender with existing Tranche B Term Loans that are replaced as contemplated hereby (whether by assignment of its Tranche B Term Loans to one or more Additional Tranche B Term Loan Lenders or otherwise) shall, automatically upon receipt (or deemed receipt) of the amount necessary to purchase such Lender’s existing Term Loans so replaced, at par, and pay all accrued interest thereon, be deemed to have assigned such Loans pursuant to a form of Assignment and Acceptance and, accordingly, no other action by the Lenders, the Administrative Agent or the Loan Parties shall be required in connection therewith. The Lenders hereby agree to waive any notice requirements of the Credit Agreement in connection with the replacement of existing Tranche B Term Loans contemplated hereby (whether by assignment of its Tranche B Term Loans to one or more Additional Tranche B Term Loan Lenders or otherwise).

Subject to the terms and conditions of Section 12.5 of the Credit Agreement, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall have received all fees and other amounts due and payable on or prior to the Effective Date, or substantially simultaneously with the effectiveness of this Amendment, including to the extent invoiced at least one Business Day prior thereto, reimbursement or payment of all out of pocket expenses required to be reimbursed or paid to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower under the Credit Agreement.

 Exhibit 10.1 

DIRECTOR RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AWARD AGREEMENT 

Penn Virginia Corporation 

2016 Management Incentive Plan 

This Director Restricted Stock Unit Award Agreement (this “Agreement”) is made as of the      day of
December 2016 (the “Grant Date”) between Penn Virginia Corporation (the “Company”) and [●] (“Participant”), and is made pursuant to the terms of the Penn Virginia Corporation 2016 Management
Incentive Plan (the “Plan”). Any capitalized term used herein but not defined shall have the meaning set forth in the Plan. 

Section 1. Grant of Restricted Stock Units. The Company hereby
grants to Participant, on the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, a Restricted Stock Unit Award consisting of                      restricted
stock units (“Restricted Stock Units”), subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement and the Plan. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement and the Plan, each Restricted Stock Unit
represents the right to receive one share of Common Stock. 
 Section 2. Vesting of the Restricted Stock
Units. 
 (a) Generally. Except as otherwise provided herein, one-third of the
Restricted Stock Units will vest on each of the first three anniversaries of the Grant Date, subject to Participant’s continuous Service with the Company through the applicable vesting date. 

(b) Qualified Liquidity Event. Upon the occurrence of a Qualified Liquidity Event that also constitutes a “change in control
event” under Section 409A of the Code, all Restricted Stock Units shall immediately vest, subject to Participant’s continuous Service with the Company through the date of such Qualified Liquidity Event. 

Section 3. Termination of Service. Upon the occurrence of a
Qualified Termination, all of the Restricted Stock Units shall immediately vest. For purposes of this Agreement, a “Qualified Termination” means Participant’s status as a member of the Board terminates (and such termination is
a “separation from service” under Section 409A of the Code) due to his (i) death, (ii) disability (as determined by the Board) or (iii) removal as, or not being re-elected or re-appointed as, a member by the Company’s stockholders or by the Board, as applicable, and such removal or failure to re-elect or
re-appoint shall not have been as a result of, caused by, or related to, Participant’s termination due to Cause or resignation or unwillingness to serve, for whatever reason, as a member of the Board.

 Section 4. Settlement. Any Restricted Stock Units that become
vested and non-forfeitable pursuant to Section 2 or Section 3 (“Vested RSUs”) shall be settled on the applicable vesting date. Vested RSUs will be settled, unless otherwise
determined by the Committee, by the Company through the delivery to the Participant of a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the number of Vested RSUs. No fractional shares of Common Stock shall be issued, and the value of any such fractional
share shall be paid to Participant in cash at Fair Market Value. 

 Section 5. Restrictions on
Transfer. No Restricted Stock Units may be transferred, pledged, assigned, hypothecated or otherwise disposed of in any way by Participant, except by will or by the laws of descent and distribution. In the event that Participant
becomes legally incapacitated, Participant’s rights with respect to the Restricted Stock Units shall be exercisable by Participant’s legal guardian or legal representative. The Restricted Stock Units shall not be subject to execution,
attachment or similar process. Any attempted assignment, transfer, pledge, hypothecation or other disposition of the Restricted Stock Units contrary to the provisions hereof, and the levy of any execution, attachment or similar process upon any
Restricted Stock Units, shall be null and void and without effect. Notwithstanding the foregoing and in all instances subject to compliance with any applicable spousal consent requirements and all other applicable laws, Participant may make
transfers of Restricted Stock Units to (i) immediate family members or to a trust, the sole beneficiaries of which are Participant or immediate family members, in each case with the prior written consent of the Committee and solely for estate
planning purposes, or (ii) with written notification to the Committee, an entity affiliated with the Participant. 

Section 6. Investment Representation. Upon any acquisition of the
shares of Common Stock underlying the Restricted Stock Units at a time when there is not in effect a registration statement under the Securities Act relating to the shares of Common Stock, Participant hereby represents and warrants, and by virtue of
such acquisition shall be deemed to represent and warrant, to the Company that such shares of Common Stock shall be acquired for investment and not with a view to the distribution thereof, and not with any present intention of distributing the same,
and Participant shall provide the Company with such further representations and warranties as the Company may reasonably require in order to ensure compliance with applicable federal and state securities, blue sky and other laws. No shares of Common
Stock underlying the Restricted Stock Units shall be acquired unless and until the Company and/or Participant have complied with all applicable federal or state registration, listing and/or qualification requirements and all other requirements of
law or of any regulatory agencies having jurisdiction, unless the Committee reasonably determines that Participant may acquire such shares of Common Stock pursuant to an exemption from registration under the applicable securities laws. 

Section 7. Adjustments. The Restricted Stock Units granted
hereunder shall be subject to the provisions of Section 4.2 of the Plan. 

Section 8. No Right of Continued Service. Nothing in the Plan or
this Agreement shall confer upon Participant any right to continued Service with the Company or any Affiliate. 

Section 9. Limitation of Rights; Dividend Equivalents. Participant
shall not have any privileges of a stockholder of the Company with respect to any Restricted Stock Units, including, without limitation, any right to vote any shares of Common Stock underlying such Restricted Stock Units or to receive dividends or
other distributions or payments of any kind in respect thereof or exercise any other right of a holder of any such securities, unless and until there is a date of settlement and issuance to Participant of the underlying shares of Common Stock.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Restricted Stock Unit Award granted hereunder is hereby granted in tandem with corresponding dividend equivalents with respect to each share of Common Stock underlying the Restricted Stock Unit Award granted
hereunder (each, a “Dividend Equivalent”), which Dividend Equivalent shall remain outstanding from the Grant Date until the earlier of the settlement or forfeiture of the Restricted Stock Unit to which it corresponds.

  
 - 2 - 

 
Participant shall be entitled to accrue payments equal to dividends declared, if any, on the Common Stock underlying the Restricted Stock Unit to which such Dividend Equivalent relates, payable
in cash and subject to the vesting of the Restricted Stock Unit to which it relates, at the time the Common Stock underlying the Restricted Stock Unit is settled and delivered to Participant pursuant to Section 4; provided, however, if any
dividends or distributions are paid in shares of Common Stock, the shares of Common Stock shall be deposited with the Company, shall be deemed to be part of the Dividend Equivalent, and shall be subject to the same vesting requirements, restrictions
on transferability and forfeitability as the Restricted Stock Units to which they correspond. Dividend Equivalents shall not entitle Participant to any payments relating to dividends declared after the earlier to occur of the settlement or
