PENN VIRGINIA CORPORATION ANNOUNCES PRICING OF UPSIZED CONCURRENT

PUBLIC OFFERINGS OF $200 MILLION OF CONVERTIBLE SENIOR SUBORDINATED

NOTES AND 3,000,000 SHARES OF COMMON STOCK

RADNOR, PA (BusinessWire) November 29, 2007 – Penn Virginia Corporation (NYSE: PVA) today announced the pricing of the offering of $200 million aggregate principal amount of convertible senior subordinated notes due 2012 (the “Notes”) and, in a concurrent offering, an aggregate of 3,000,000 shares of common stock, through offerings registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). The offerings were increased from previously announced levels by $50 million aggregate principal amount of Notes and 800,000 shares of common stock.

The Notes will bear interest at a rate of 4.50 percent per year and will be convertible during certain periods and under certain circumstances at an initial conversion rate of 17.3160 shares of PVA common stock per $1,000 principal amount of notes (equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $57.75 per share). The initial conversion price represents a premium of 40 percent relative to the common stock offering price of $41.25 per share. Upon any conversion, holders of the Notes will receive cash up to the principal amount and any excess conversion value will be delivered in shares of PVA common stock. In connection with the offering of the Notes, PVA granted the underwriters a 13-day option to purchase additional Notes to cover overallotments in an aggregate amount not to exceed $30 million. PVA estimates that the net proceeds from the Notes offering will be approximately $193.4 million, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated expenses. PVA intends to use the net proceeds from the Notes offering to repay a portion of the outstanding borrowings under PVA’s revolving credit facility and to pay the cost of convertible note hedge transactions, which is approximately $16.2 million after such cost is offset by the proceeds of the warrant transaction described below.

The shares of PVA common stock in the concurrent offering were priced at $41.25 per share. PVA granted the underwriters a 30-day option to purchase up to 450,000 additional shares of common stock to cover overallotments. PVA estimates that the net proceeds from the offering of common stock will be approximately $117.6 million, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated expenses. PVA intends to use the net proceeds of the common stock offering to repay a portion of the outstanding borrowings under PVA’s revolving credit facility and for general corporate purposes.

In connection with the offering of the Notes, PVA entered into convertible note hedge transactions with one or more of the underwriters or their affiliates, which are expected to reduce the potential dilution upon conversion of the Notes. In addition, PVA entered into separate warrant transactions with the same underwriters or their affiliates. If the underwriters of the Notes were to exercise their over-allotment options, PVA would expect to enter into additional convertible note hedge and warrant transactions. The combined effect of the convertible note hedge and warrant transactions is

to effectively increase the conversion price of the Notes to approximately $74.25 per share, representing an 80 percent premium to the common stock offering price of $41.25 per share. As part of hedging their initial positions under these transactions, the underwriters or their affiliates entered into or expect to enter into various derivative transactions with respect to shares of PVA common stock concurrent with, or shortly after, the pricing of the Notes. These activities could have the effect of increasing, or preventing a decline in, the price of PVA common stock concurrently with or following the pricing of the Notes. In addition, the underwriters or their affiliates may modify their hedge positions by entering into or unwinding various derivative transactions and/or purchasing or selling shares of PVA common stock in secondary market transactions prior to the maturity of the Notes (and are likely to do so during any observation period related to any conversion of the Notes). These activities could adversely affect the price of shares of PVA common stock upon the conversion of the Notes.

In connection with the Notes offering, J.P. Morgan Securities Inc., Lehman Brothers Inc. and Wachovia Securities are acting as joint book-running managers and representatives of the underwriters, who will include RBC Capital Markets Corporation and UBS Securities LLC.

In connection with the common stock offering, J.P. Morgan Securities Inc., Lehman Brothers Inc. and RBC Capital Markets Corporation are acting as joint book-running managers and representatives of the underwriters, who will include UBS Securities LLC, Wachovia Securities, BMO Capital Markets Corp., Capital One Southcoast, Inc., Ferris, Baker Watts Incorporated, Fortis Securities LLC and Pritchard Capital Partners, LLC.

PVA expects to close the sale of the Notes and the sale of the shares of common stock on December 5, 2007, subject to customary closing conditions. Each of the offerings is being made only by means of a prospectus and related prospectus supplement, which will be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).
