(the “Fund”).
RECITALS
     WHEREAS, simultaneously with the execution of this Agreement, Parent, Merger Sub and Delta Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”) have entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of the date hereof (the “Merger Agreement”; all capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meaning set forth in the Merger Agreement), pursuant to which, among other things, Merger Sub will merge with and into the Company with the Company continuing as the surviving corporation (the “Merger”);
     WHEREAS, each Stockholder is the record and/or beneficial owner (as defined in Rule 13d-3 of the Exchange Act, which meaning will apply for all purposes of this Agreement whenever the term “beneficial” or “beneficially” is used) of the shares of Common Stock set forth next to such Stockholder’s name on Schedule A hereto (with respect to each Stockholder, such Stockholder’s “Subject Shares” and, together with any other shares of Common Stock or other voting securities acquired by such Stockholder after the date hereof, whether purchased, issued upon the exercise of warrants, options, conversion of convertible securities or otherwise acquired, such Stockholder’s “Shares”); and
     WHEREAS, as a condition and inducement to Parent’s and Merger Sub’s willingness to enter into the Merger Agreement, Parent and Merger Sub have requested that the Stockholders and the Fund agree, and each of the Stockholders and the Fund has agreed, to enter into this Agreement.
     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and intending to be legally bound hereby, the parties hereto agree as follows:
ARTICLE I
VOTING AGREEMENT; GRANT OF PROXY
Section 1.1 Voting Agreement.
     (a) Each Stockholder hereby agrees to vote (or cause to be voted) in person or by proxy, all Subject Shares that such Stockholder is entitled to vote at the time of any vote, whether at an annual or special meeting of the Company’s stockholders (including any adjournment or postponement thereof) or in connection with any written consent of the stockholders of the Company, with respect to matters set forth in this Section 1.1 (if then permitted), to the fullest

 


 

extent that such Subject Shares are entitled to be voted at the time of any vote or action by written consent:
     (i) in favor of the adoption of the Merger Agreement (or any amendment thereof) and any transactions contemplated thereby, including the Merger, and in favor of any actions that could be reasonably expected to be in furtherance thereof submitted for a vote of the Company’s stockholders, including, without limiting any of the foregoing obligations, in favor of any proposal to adjourn or postpone any meeting of the Company’s stockholders at which any of the foregoing matters are submitted for consideration and vote of the Company’s stockholders to a later date if there are not sufficient votes for approval of such matters on the date on which the meeting is held to vote upon any of the foregoing matters;
     (ii) against (and shall not provide consents to or vote in favor of) (A) any Acquisition Proposal, (B) the adoption of any Alternative Acquisition Agreement or any other agreement relating thereto or (C) any liquidation, winding-up, reorganization, recapitalization or other restructuring of the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company; and
     (iii) against (and shall not provide consents to or vote in favor of) any other proposal or action submitted for the approval of the Company’s stockholders that is intended, or that would reasonably be expected to impede, prevent or delay the consummation of the Merger or any of the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement.
     (b) Any such vote will be cast (or consent will be given, if applicable) in accordance with the procedures applicable thereto so as to ensure that it is duly counted for purposes of determining that a quorum is present and for purposes of recording the results of such vote or consent.
     (c) Except as set forth in this Section 1.1, none of the Stockholders shall be restricted from voting in favor of, against or abstaining with respect to any other matters presented to the stockholders of the Company, provided such other matters do not breach any of Stockholder’s obligations under this Section 1.1.
Section 1.2 Appraisal Rights.
     Each Stockholder hereby waives, and agrees not to exercise or assert, any appraisal or similar rights (including under Section 262 of the Delaware General Corporation Law) in connection with the Merger.
Section 1.3 Grant of Proxy.
In furtherance of Section 1.1(a) of this Agreement, each Stockholder (i) hereby irrevocably grants to, and appoints, Parent and each of its president, vice president and secretary in their respective capacities as officers of Parent, and any individual who shall hereafter succeed to any such officer of Parent, each of them individually, its irrevocable proxy and attorney-in-fact (with full power of

 


 

substitution and resubstitution) to vote the Subject Shares, provide written consents, express consent or dissent or otherwise utilize voting power as indicated in Section 1.1(a) of this Agreement, provided, however, that each Stockholder’s grant of the proxy contemplated by this Section 1.3(i) shall be effective if, and only if, such Stockholder has not delivered to the Secretary of the Company at least ten business days prior to such meeting a duly executed proxy card previously approved by Parent voting such Stockholder’s Subject Shares in the manner specified in Section 1.1(a) or in the event such proxy card has been thereafter modified or revoked or otherwise fails to provide evidence of such Stockholder’s compliance with its obligations under Section 1.1(a) in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Parent, (ii) hereby affirms that the irrevocable proxy set forth in this Section 1.3, if it becomes effective pursuant to clause (i), is given in connection with the execution of the Merger Agreement, and that such irrevocable proxy is given to secure the performance of the duties of such Stockholder under this Agreement and (iii) hereby (a) affirms that the irrevocable proxy is coupled with an interest and (b) affirms that such irrevocable proxy, if it becomes effective pursuant to clause (i), is executed and intended to be irrevocable in accordance with the provisions of Section 212(e) of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware. Each Stockholder hereby represents that all proxies, powers of attorney, instructions or other requests given by such Stockholder prior to the execution of this Agreement in respect of the voting of such Stockholder’s Shares, if any, are not irrevocable and such Stockholder hereby revokes (or causes to be revoked) any and all previous proxies, powers of attorney, instructions or other requests with respect to such Stockholder’s Shares. The vote, if any, of the proxy holder pursuant to the proxy set forth in this Section 1.3 shall control the outcome, and be determinative, of any conflict between the vote by the proxy holder of the Subject Shares and a vote by a Stockholder of the Subject Shares. Each Stockholder shall provide evidence to Parent in connection with the actions of the Stockholder under or relating to this Section 1.3 as Parent shall reasonably request.
Section 1.4 No Ownership Interest.
     Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be deemed to vest in Parent, Merger Sub or the Company any direct or indirect ownership or incidence of ownership of or with respect to any Shares, other than the right to vote the Subject Shares upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement. Except as provided in this Agreement, all rights, ownership and economic benefits of and relating to each Stockholder’s Shares shall remain vested in and belong to such Stockholder, and Parent and Merger Sub shall have no authority to manage, direct, superintend, restrict, regulate, govern, or administer any of the policies or operations of the Company or exercise any power or authority to direct the Stockholders in the voting of any of their respective Shares, except as otherwise specifically provided herein, or in the performance of the Stockholders’ duties or responsibilities as stockholders of the Company. Nothing in this Agreement shall be interpreted as (i) obligating a Stockholder to exercise any warrants, options, conversion of convertible securities or otherwise to acquire Common Stock or (ii) creating or forming a “group” with any other Person, including Parent or any other Stockholder, for purposes of Rule 13d-5(b)(1) of the Exchange Act or any other similar provision of applicable Law.

To the extent that any Stockholder is a director or officer of the Company or such Stockholder’s Affiliate or designee is an officer or director of the Company, nothing herein shall limit or affect any actions taken by any such officer or director in their capacities as such, or require such Stockholder or its Affiliate or designee to take any action, in each case, in his capacity as a director or officer of the Company, including, without limitation, to disclose information acquired solely in its or his capacity as a director or officer of the Company, and any actions taken (whatsoever), or failure to take any actions (whatsoever), by it or him in such capacity as a director or officer of the Company shall not be deemed to constitute a breach of this Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing, and for the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Section 6.10 shall affect any of the rights or remedies of Parent and Merger Sub under the Merger Agreement or relieve the Company from any breach or violation of the Merger Agreement caused by any action or omission of any Stockholder (in its capacity as a director or officer of the Company or otherwise) or of any Affiliates or designee of such Stockholder (who is an officer or director of the Company).
     (b) Each Stockholder agrees that it shall not assert or bring any claims against any other Stockholder, under any circumstance, for any matter whatsoever arising out of this Agreement.
Section 6.11 Entire Agreement.
     This Agreement (including any exhibits hereto) and, to the extent referenced herein, the Merger Agreement, constitute the entire agreement among the parties with respect to the voting of Shares owned by the Stockholders in connection with the Merger, and supersede all other prior

 


 

agreements and understandings both written and oral, among the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof.
Section 6.12 Failure or Indulgence Not Waiver; Remedies Cumulative.
     No failure or delay on the part of any party hereto in the exercise of any right hereunder shall impair such right or be construed to be a waiver of, or acquiescence in, any breach of any representation, warranty or agreement herein, nor will any single or partial exercise of any such right preclude other or further exercise thereof or of any other right. Except as otherwise expressly set forth herein, all rights and remedies existing under this Agreement are cumulative to, and not exclusive of, any rights or remedies in law or in equity otherwise available.
Section 6.13 Specific Performance.
     The parties agree that irreparable damage and harm would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that the parties shall be entitled (in addition to other remedies to which they may be entitled in law or in equity) to an injunction or injunctions, temporary restraining orders or other equitable relief to prevent breaches of this Agreement, and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement. Each party hereto agrees not to oppose the granting of such relief in the event a court determines that such a breach has occurred, and to waive any requirement for the securing or posting of any bond in connection with any such remedies. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, to the extent the terms of this Section 6.13 conflict with the rights and remedies of Parent or Merger Sub under the Merger Agreement with respect to any claim arising out of or related to the Merger Agreement, the Merger Agreement shall control.
Section 6.14 Maximum Share Amount.
     Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, solely to the extent that the beneficial ownership (as defined in the Credit Agreement, dated as of July 28, 2008, as amended, modified or supplemented from time to time, by and among DynCorp International Inc., DynCorp International LLC and Wachovia Bank, N.A. (the “Credit Agreement”)) or the Beneficial Ownership (as defined in the Indenture, dated as of February 11, 2005, by and among DynCorp International LLC, DIV Capital Corporation and each of the guarantors party thereto and The Bank of New York, as trustee (the “Indenture”)) of shares of the Company by Parent or Merger Sub, in each case, exceeds the number of the Subject Shares (other than as a result of, or arising from the parties hereto entering into or performing their respective obligations under, this Agreement), then (i) the obligations of the Stockholders pursuant to this Agreement shall apply only to a maximum number of Shares that, when added to the number of shares of the Company that Parent or Merger Sub has beneficial ownership (as defined in the Credit Agreement) or Beneficial Ownership (as defined in the Indenture) other than as result of, or arising from the parties hereto entering into or performing their respective obligations under, this Agreement, is one share less than the lesser of (a) the number of shares the of which by Parent or Merger Sub would result in a “Change in Control” under the Credit Agreement and (b) the number of shares the of which by Parent or Merger Sub would result in a “Change of Control” under the Indenture and (ii) to the extent that the application of the

 


 

terms of clause (i) of this Section would reduce the number of Shares that would otherwise be subject to this Agreement, such reduction in number of Shares shall be allocated proportionally among the Stockholders (based on their relative ownership of Subject Shares as of the date of this Agreement).
