On October 7, 2005, Delta Air Lines, Inc. ("Delta") announced that it has been advised by the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") that its common stock - ticker symbol DAL - and its 8 1/8% Notes due July 1, 2039 - ticker symbol DNT - will be suspended from trading on the NYSE on October 13, 2005, and that the NYSE will submit an application to the Securities and Exchange Commission to delist these securities. Delta received written notification from the NYSE on October 4, 2005 that the average closing price of Delta's common stock fell below the NYSE's continued listing minimum share price standard of $1.00 over a consecutive 30-trading-day period as of October 3, 2005. This condition subjected Delta's securities to the NYSE's suspension and delisting procedures. Delta has informed the NYSE that, due to its recent Chapter 11 filing, it does not intend to attempt to cure this deficiency and will not oppose the suspension and delisting from trading on the NYSE of its common stock and its 8 1/8% Notes due July 1, 2039. Delta expects these securities to be delisted from the NYSE upon approval by the Securities and Exchange Commission.
