Stock Performance Graph
The following graph compares the cumulative total returns during the period from April 30, 2007 to December 31, 2009 of our common stock to the
Standard & Poor's 500 Stock Index and the Amex Airline Index. The comparison assumes $100 was invested on April 30, 2007 in each of our common stock
and the indices and assumes that all dividends were reinvested. Data for periods prior to April 30, 2007 is not shown because of the period we were in
bankruptcy and the lack of comparability of financial results before and after April 30, 2007.
The Amex Airline Index (ticker symbol XAL) consists of Alaska Air Group, Inc., AMR Corporation, Continental, Delta, GOL Linhas Areas Inteligentes
S.A., JetBlue Airways Corporation, LAN Airlines SA ADS, Ryanair Holdings plc, SkyWest, Inc., Southwest Airlines Company, TAM S.A. ADS, UAL
Corporation, and US Airways Group, Inc.

(1) Shares were withheld from employees to satisfy certain tax obligations due in connection with grants of stock under our 2007 Performance
Compensation Plan. The 2007 Performance Compensation Plan and Delta's Plan of Reorganization both provide for the withholding of shares to satisfy
tax obligations. Neither specifies a maximum number of shares that can be withheld for this purpose. See Note 11 and Note 12 of the Notes to the
Consolidated Financial Statements elsewhere in this Form 10-K for more information about Delta's Plan of Reorganization and the 2007 Performance
Compensation Plan, respectively. 25
