(1) On March 13, 2007, the Personnel & Compensation Committee of Delta's Board of Directors ("P&C Committee") approved the terms of the grant of stock options to Delta officers, including the Reporting Person, to be made following Delta's emergence from bankruptcy. Delta described this program in a Bankruptcy Court filing on March 20, 2007, and in a Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on March 22, 2007. The P&C Committee determined that the grant date for these stock option awards would be the first trading day for Delta common stock, par value $0.0001 per share ("Common Stock"), on the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") that is 30 calendar days after the first day the Common Stock is traded regular-way on the NYSE. Consistent with that determination, the stock option grant was made to the Reporting Person on June 4, 2007 in a transaction exempt under Rule 16b-3(d). The exercise price of the stock option is the closing price of the Common Stock on the NYSE on June 4, 2007.
(2) Subject to the terms of the award, including the Reporting Person's continued employment with Delta, the stock option reported in this Form 4 becomes exercisable on the following dates with respect to the specified number of shares of Common Stock: April 30, 2008 - 35,167 shares; April 30, 2009 -- 35,167 shares; April 30, 2010 -- 35,166 shares. Delta emerged from bankruptcy on April 30, 2007.
