(1) | The portion of the annual retainer paid in the form of deferred common units is credited to each directors Deferred Compensation Account. Beginning on January 1 of the year following the year a director meets his/her Unit Ownership Guidelines requirement, a director will receive the equity portion of his/her annual retainer in common units, rather than deferred common units, unless he/she elects to continue to receive deferred common units. In addition, directors may elect to receive any cash payments in common units or deferred common units, and may elect to defer the receipt of cash or common units they receive under the Penn Virginia Resource GP, LLC Amended and Restated Non-Employee Directors Deferred Compensation Plan. |
(2) | The fair market value of each quarterly crediting of deferred common units is based upon the NYSE closing price of our common units on the dates that such awards are granted. |
