ATLANTA, Nov. 4, 2005 (PRIMEZONE) -- Delta Air Lines, Inc. today announced that holders of certain series of EETC certificates from its 2001-1, 2001-2 and 2003-1 EETC financings will be receiving a notice from U.S. Bank, the agent for the financings, advising them that a special distribution will be made to certain holders with respect to such certificates. Delta issued equipment notes under the Series 2001-1, Series 2001-2 and Series 2003-1 EETCs to finance a number of aircraft but has not made scheduled payments when due because of its Chapter 11 filing on September 14, 2005. Payments on the notes are used to fund payments on the certificates. Delta will be filing with the bankruptcy court on or before November 14, 2005 election notices under Section 1110(a) of the Bankruptcy Code for the EETC financings. The amount of the special distribution has not yet been determined.
