THIS SECOND AMENDMENT is made on this 31st day of December, 2002, by ATLANTIC SOUTHEAST AIRLINES, INC., a corporation duly organized and existing under the laws of the State of Georgia (the “Primary Sponsor”).

 

W I T N E S S E T H:

 

WHEREAS, the Primary Sponsor maintains the Atlantic Southeast Airlines, Inc. Investment Savings Plan (the “Plan”) which was last amended on May       , 2002; and

 

WHEREAS, the Primary Sponsor now wishes to amend the Plan primarily to comply with and make changes permitted by the Economic Growth and Tax Relief Reconciliation Act of 2001 (“EGTRRA”);

 

WHEREAS, this amendment is intended as good faith compliance with the requirements of EGTRRA and is to be construed in accordance with EGTRRA and any guidance issued thereunder; and

NOW, THEREFORE, the Primary Sponsor does hereby amend the Plan effective as of January 1, 2002:

2.              By deleting the existing Section 1.13 and substituting therefor the following:

 

“1.4          Disability ’ means a disability of a Participant within the meaning of Code Section 72(m)(7), to the extent that the Participant is, or would be, entitled to disability retirement benefits under the federal Social Security Act or to the extent that the Participant is entitled to recover benefits under any long term disability plan or policy maintained by the Plan Sponsor.”

(c)    an annuity plan described in Code Section 403(a) or an annuity contract described in Code Section 403(b);

(e)    an eligible plan under Code Section 457(b) which is maintained by a state or political subdivision of a state, or any agency or instrumentality of a state or political subdivision and which agrees to separately account for amounts transferred into such plan from this Plan.

 

Effective for distributions after December 31, 2005, if any portion of an Eligible Rollover Distribution is attributable to payments or distributions from a designated Roth account (as defined in Code Section 402A), an Eligible Retirement Plan with respect to such portion shall include only another designated Roth account and a Roth IRA.”

 

4.              By deleting the existing Section 1.19 and substituting therefor the following:

 

“1.19        Eligible Rollover Distribution ’  means any distribution of all or any portion of the Distributee’s Account, except that an Eligible Rollover Distribution does not include:

The payment of the excess Elective Deferrals, as adjusted and reduced, from the Plan shall be made to the Participant without regard to any other provision in the Plan.  In the event that a Participant’s Elective Deferrals exceed the Code Section 402(g) limit, as adjusted, in any one taxable year under the Plan and other plans of the Plan Sponsor and its Affiliates, the Participant shall be deemed to have designated for distribution under the Plan the amount of excess Elective Deferrals, as adjusted and reduced, by taking into account only Elective Deferral amounts under the Plan and other plans of the Plan Sponsor and its Affiliates.

(d)            Deferral Elections .  The elections under this Section 3.1 must be made before the Annual Compensation is payable and may only be made in such manner and subject to such rules and limitations as the Plan Administrator may prescribe and shall specify the percentage or dollar amount, as applicable, of Annual Compensation that the Participant desires to defer pursuant to Section 3.1(a) and/or 3.1(c) and to have contributed to the Fund.  Once a Participant has made an election for a Plan Year, the Participant may revoke or modify his election to increase or reduce the rate of future deferrals, as provided in the administrative procedures established by the Plan Administrator.”

“7.1          Hardship Withdrawals .’  The Trustee shall, upon the direction of the Plan Administrator, withdraw all or portion of a Participant’s Deferred Account consisting of Deferral Amounts (but not earnings thereon), including Catch-Up Contributions made pursuant to Section 3.1(c), prior to the time such account is otherwise distributable in accordance with the other provisions of the Plan; provided, however, that any such withdrawal shall be made only if the Participant is an Employee and demonstrates that he is suffering from ‘hardship’ as determined herein.  For purposes of this Section, a withdrawal will be deemed to be an account of hardship if the withdrawal is on account of:”
