11. Amendment. Except as otherwise expressly set forth in this Section, the terms of Section 14 of the 2007 Plan shall apply to any amendment or
termination of the MIP. In addition, the terms applicable to any Participant will be subject in their entirety to the terms of any offer letter or other document to
which the Participant has agreed. The terms of such offer letter or other document, if contrary to the terms of the MIP, shall govern the rights of the
corresponding Participant.
12. Fractions. Any calculation under the MIP that results in a fractional amount will be rounded up to two decimal points.
13. Section 409A of the Code. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the MIP, to the extent that any amount paid hereunder in connection with a
Termination of Employment constitutes deferred compensation under Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and the regulations
promulgated thereunder (together, "Section 409A") and is paid to a "specified employee" as defined in Section 409A, the payment of such amount will be
delayed for six months.
14. Clawback. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the MIP, if the Committee determines that a vice president or more senior officer level Participant
has engaged in fraud or misconduct that caused, in whole or in part, the need for a required restatement of Delta's financial statements filed with the Securities
and Exchange Commission, the Committee will review all incentive compensation awarded to or earned by such Participant, including, without limitation,
any MIP Award, with respect to fiscal periods materially affected by the restatement and may recover from the Participant all such incentive compensation to
the extent that the Committee deems appropriate after taking into account the relevant facts and circumstances. Any recoupment hereunder may be in addition
to any other remedies that may be available to Delta under applicable law, including, disciplinary action up to and including termination of employment.
