         This Amendment No. 4 amends the Statement on Schedule 13D filed with
the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on July 17, 1989 by
Interkohle Beteiligungsgesellschaft mit beschrankter Haftung, a corporation
organized under the laws of the Federal Republic of Germany ("Interkohle"), as
amended by Amendment No. 1 and Amendment No. 2 filed with the SEC on January 10,
1990 and July 9, 1990, respectively, and as amended and restated in its entirety
by Amendment No. 3 filed with the SEC on November 15, 1996 (such Schedule, as so
amended and restated, being the "Schedule 13D"). This Amendment No. 4 is filed
with respect to shares of Common Stock, par value $6.25 per share, issued by
Penn Virginia Corporation, a Virginia corporation (the "Company").

Item 5.  Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

         Items 5 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended in its entirety to read
as follow:

                  "(a)     Except as set forth below, none of Interkohle, PE,
         VKR, Stinnes, Veba, or, to the best knowledge, respectively, of
         Interkohle and Veba, any of the executive officers or directors of
         Interkohle, or any of the members of the Management Board and
         Supervisory Board of Veba, are beneficial owners of any Shares.

                           Dr. Hans Michael Gaul, a member of VEBA Management
         Board, beneficially owns 5,552 Shares, which includes 5,000 Shares
         issuable upon exercise of options which are exercisable within 60 days
         of February 5, 1997. The options granted to Dr. Gaul were granted
         pursuant to the Company's 1995 Director Stock Option Plan.

                  (b)      None of Interkohle, PE, VKR, Stinnes or Veba has any
         power to vote or direct the vote and to dispose or to direct the
         disposition of the Shares.

                  (c)      On January 30, 1997, Interkohle sold all of 868,258
         Shares beneficially owned by it through transactions executed by Morgan
         Stanley & Co. Incorporated ("Morgan Stanley"), acting as agent, at a
         price of $41.50 per share, less commissions. As a result of the
         foregoing transactions, Interkohle, PE, VKR, Stinnes and Veba ceased to
         be a beneficial owner of any Shares.

                  (d)      Not applicable.

                  (e)      On January 30, 1997, Interkohle, PE, VKR, Stinnes and
         Veba ceased to own beneficially more than five percent of the Shares."
