Ms. Deborah Fitzgerald

21804 Iannis Spring Dr.

Ashburn, VA 20148

Dear Deb:

This revised offer letter supersedes our original offer dated September 24,
2009.

I am pleased to offer you the position of Senior Vice President, Chief
Information Officer of Deltek, Inc. (the “Company”). I am very excited about the
Company’s future and equally excited at the prospect of your joining our team.
The following are the terms and conditions of your offer.

Start Date: Your start date with the Company will be on or before October 26,
2009.

Reporting Responsibilities: As Senior Vice President, Chief Information Officer,
you will report to me, although, as with all of the Company’s officers, you may
also be called on from time to time to give reports to the board of directors of
the Company (the “Board”) directly.

Base Salary and Annual Bonus: Your annual base salary will be $240,000, payable
in accordance with the Company’s standard payroll policy, and will be reviewed
periodically. You will have an annual bonus target of $120,000. Bonuses will be
paid quarterly, based on a combination of your satisfaction of actual
performance against agreed targets and the Company’s actual performance against
targets, and your actual bonuses may be more than or less than your bonus
target. All payments to you by the Company will be subject to any required
withholding of taxes.

In addition, and as discussed, your quarterly bonus for the first two quarters
after your start date will be paid at 100% of your quarterly bonus target.

Other Benefits: You will be provided with the Company’s standard benefits
package, which currently includes medical coverage, 401(k) plan participation
and three weeks of paid vacation. You will be reimbursed pursuant to the
Company’s expense reimbursement policy for the covered business expenses that
you incur in connection with your service to the Company.

Insurance & Indemnification: From and after your start date and for so long as
the Company maintains any directors and officers liability insurance policy, you
will be provided in respect of your service to the Company with the same
coverage under such policy as is provided to other directors or officers of the
Company in respect of their service to the Company. In addition, from and after
your start date, the Company will indemnify you to the maximum extent permitted
under applicable law and/or the Company’s charter or by-laws to the extent that
such indemnification is provided to other directors or officers of the Company.
Such coverage and indemnification will be provided, to the extent that you are
entitled thereto, without regard to your termination of employment.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Restricted Stock: On or as soon as practicable after your start date and upon
approval of the Board, the Company will award to you 40,000 shares of restricted
common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of the Company (and including any
securities into which such shares are changed or for which such shares are
exchanged) (the “Common Stock”). These shares will vest in 25% increments
annually over four years from your start date, will be granted pursuant to the
Company’s 2007 Stock Incentive and Award Plan and will be evidenced by a
Restricted Stock Agreement in a form customarily used by the Company for its
executive officers, a copy of which has been provided to you.

At-Will Employment; Severance: You will have no set term of employment, and your
employment will be at will.

If your employment is terminated before a Change in Control either by the
Company without Cause or by you for Good Reason, then the Company shall continue
to pay you your then current base salary as of the date of termination for six
months thereafter. In addition, upon any termination that entitles you to the
foregoing severance benefits, the Company will also continue your coverage under
the Company’s medical benefit plan for twelve months at the active-employee
premium rate.

If your employment is terminated on the date of or within 18 months following a
Change in Control either by the Company or its successors without Cause or by
you for Good Reason, then the Company shall: (1) continue to pay you your then
current base salary as of the termination date for 18 months thereafter, (2) pay
you 150% of your then current target annual bonus (based on your target annual
bonus in effect in the period in which you are terminated), and (3) continue
your medical coverage under the Company’s medical benefit plan for 18 months at
the active-employee premium rate.

The continuation of base salary will be paid in substantially equal installments
over the 18-month severance period in accordance with the Company’s standard
payroll practices with respect to active employees, but not less frequently than
monthly. The payment of your bonus will be made in a lump sum at such time as
bonuses are generally paid to employees during the period in which you are
terminated. Notwithstanding the preceding two sentences, if Section 409A of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), would cause the
imposition of an excise tax on the salary continuation severance payment or
bonus award severance payment if paid as aforesaid, then payment of the salary
continuation severance payment and bonus award severance payment shall be
ordered so as to avoid the imposition of the excise tax, as follows: (i) as much
of the bonus award severance payment as may be paid without the imposition of
the excise tax shall be paid as aforesaid, and any remaining portion of the
bonus award severance payment shall be paid upon the day following the six-month
anniversary of the termination date; and (ii) if any installments of the salary
continuation payment may be paid (in whole or in part) as aforesaid without the
imposition of the excise tax, then such installments shall be paid as aforesaid,
and the remaining installments shall commence upon the day following the
six-month anniversary of the termination date, and the first installment paid
upon the day following the six-month anniversary of the termination date shall
include all portions of the salary continuation severance payment that would
have been paid but for the application of Section 409A to the salary
continuation severance payment. The Company’s obligations to make any payments
and (if applicable) continue the medical coverage as set forth

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

above is conditioned upon: (x) your execution and delivery of, and your
continued compliance with the obligations under, the Employee Confidential and
Proprietary Information and Assignment of Inventions Agreement, the form of
which is attached as Annex B, and (y) your execution, delivery and
non-revocation of a valid and enforceable general release of claims
substantially in the form attached as Annex C.

For purposes of this letter, “Cause” and “Good Reason” will have the meanings
set forth on Annex A hereto.

Effect of Section 280G: Notwithstanding any provision in this letter or any
other plan, program or arrangement of the Company to the contrary, payments to
be made to you in the event of a change in ownership or effective control of the
Company or a substantial portion of its assets (within the meaning of
Section 280G(b)(2) of the Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder) shall
be reduced, but only if and to the extent that a reduction in the payments to
you would result in your retaining a larger amount, on an after-tax basis
(taking into account federal, state and local income taxes and the excise tax
payable under Section 4999 of the Code) than if you received the entire amount
of such payments without reduction. If the payments are to be reduced as
aforesaid, then, unless you give prior written notice to the Company specifying
a different order by which to effectuate the foregoing, the Company shall reduce
or eliminate such payments (x) by first reducing or eliminating the portion of
such payments which is not payable in cash (other than that portion of such
payments subject to clause (z) hereof), (y) then by reducing or eliminating cash
payments (other than that portion of such payments subject to clause (z) hereof)
and (z) then by reducing or eliminating the portion of such payments (whether
payable in cash or not payable in cash) to which Treasury Regulation
Section 1.280G-1 Q/A 24(c) (or successor thereto) applies, in each case in
reverse order beginning with payments or benefits which are to be paid the
farthest in time from the date of the Change in Control. Any notice given by you
pursuant to the preceding sentence shall take precedence over the provisions of
any other plan, arrangement or agreement governing your rights and entitlements
to any benefits or compensation.”

Employee Covenants: As a condition of your employment, not later than your start
date, you will execute and deliver the Company’s form of Employee Confidential
and Proprietary Information and Assignment of Inventions Agreement, which is
attached hereto as Annex B.

Section 2. Retaining and Assigning Inventions and Original Works.

a list describing all inventions, original works of authorship, developments,
improvements, and trade secrets which were made by Employee prior to Employee’s
employment with the Company, which belong to Employee, which relate to the
Company’s proposed business and products, and which are not assigned to the
Company; or, if no such list is attached, Employee represents that there are no
such inventions or original works of authorship.

2.2 Inventions and Original Works Assigned to the Company. Employee agrees that
Employee will promptly make full written disclosure to the Company, will hold in
trust for the sole right and benefit of the Company, and will assign to the
Company all his or her right, title, and interest in and to any and all
inventions, original works of authorship, developments, improvements or trade
secrets which Employee has solely or jointly conceived or developed or reduced
to practice, or caused to be conceived or developed or reduced to practice,
during the period of time Employee has been in the employ of the Company or
which Employee may solely or jointly conceive or develop or reduce to practice,
during the period of time Employee shall be in the employ of the Company.

Employee acknowledges that all original works of authorship which have been and
will be made by Employee (solely or jointly with others) within the scope of
employee’s employment and which are protectable by copyright are “works made for
hire,” as that term is defined in the United States Copyright Act (17 USCA
Section 101).

2.3 Maintenance of Records. Employee agrees to keep and maintain adequate and
current written records of all inventions and original works of authorship made
by Employee (solely or jointly with others) during the term of his or her
employment with the Company. The records will be in the form of notes, sketches,
drawings, and any other format that may be specified by the Company. The records
will be made available to and shall remain the sole property of the Company at
all times.

2.4 Obtaining Letters Patent and Copyright Registrations. Employee agrees that
Employee’s obligation to assist the Company to obtain United States or foreign
letters patent and copyright registrations covering inventions and original
works of authorship assigned under this Agreement to the Company shall continue
beyond the termination of employment, but the Company shall compensate Employee
at a reasonable rate for time actually spent by Employee at the Company’s
request on such assistance. If the Company is unable because of Employee’s
mental or physical incapacity or for any other reason to secure Employee’s
signature to apply for or to pursue any application for any United States or
foreign letters patent or copyright registrations covering inventions or
original works of authorship assigned to the Company as described above, then
Employee hereby irrevocably designates and appoints the Company and its duly

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

authorized officers and agents as Employee’s agent and attorney in fact, to act
for and in Employee’s behalf and stead, to execute and further the prosecution
and issuance of letters patent or copyright registrations with the same legal
force and effect as if executed by Employee. Employee hereby waives and
quitclaims to the Company any and all claims, of any nature whatsoever, which
Employee now or hereafter may have for infringement of any patents or copyright
resulting from any such application for letters patent or copyright registration
assigned under this Agreement to the Company.

Section 3. Remedies. The Employee agrees that any material breach of the terms
of this Agreement would result in irreparable injury and damage to the Company
for which the Company would have no adequate remedy at law. The Employee
therefore also agrees that in the event of said breach or any threat of breach,
the Company shall be entitled to an immediate injunction and restraining order
to prevent such breach and/or threatened breach and/or continued breach by the
Employee and/or any and all Persons acting for and/or with the Employee, without
having to prove damages, in addition to any other remedies to which the Company
may be entitled at law or in equity. The terms of this Section 3 shall not
prevent the Company from pursuing any other available remedies for any breach or
threatened breach of this Agreement, including, without limitation, the recovery
of damages from the Employee. The Employee and the Company further agree that
the provisions of the covenants contained in this Agreement are reasonable and
necessary to protect the businesses of the Company and its affiliates because of
the Employee’s access to Confidential Information and his or her material
participation in the operation of such businesses.

Section 4. Miscellaneous.

4.1. Amendments and Waivers. This Agreement and any of its provisions may be
amended, waived (either generally or in a particular instance and either
retroactively or prospectively), modified or supplemented, in whole or in part,
only by a written agreement signed by the parties to this Agreement; provided,
that the observance of any provision of this Agreement may be waived in writing
by the party that will lose the benefit of such provision as a result of such
waiver. The waiver by any party to this Agreement of a breach of any provision
of this Agreement shall not operate or be construed as a further or continuing
waiver of such breach or as a waiver of any other or subsequent breach, except
as otherwise explicitly provided in such waiver. Except as otherwise expressly
provided in this Agreement, no failure on the part of any party to exercise, and
no delay in exercising, any right, power or remedy under this Agreement, or
otherwise available in respect of this Agreement at law or in equity, shall
operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of such
right, power or remedy by such party preclude any other or further exercise
thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy.

4.2. Assignment; No Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement, and the
Employee’s rights and obligations under it, may not be assigned by the Employee,
and any purported assignment by the Employee in violation of this Agreement
shall be null and void. Nothing in this Agreement shall confer upon any Person
not a party to this Agreement, or the legal representatives of such Person, any
rights or remedies of any nature or kind whatsoever under or by reason of this
Agreement.

4.3. Notices. Unless otherwise provided in this Agreement, all notices,
requests, demands, claims and other communications provided for under the terms
of this Agreement shall be in writing. Any notice, request, demand, claim or
other communication under this Agreement shall be sent by (i) personal delivery
(including receipted courier service) or overnight delivery service,

the manner then set forth.

4.4. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be construed and enforced in accordance
with, and the rights and obligations of the parties to this Agreement shall be
governed by, the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia, without giving effect to
its conflicts of laws principles.

4.5. Severability. Whenever possible, each provision or portion of any provision
of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and
valid under applicable law, but the invalidity or unenforceability of any
provision or portion of any provision of this Agreement in any jurisdiction
shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remainder of this
Agreement in that jurisdiction or the validity or enforceability of this
Agreement, including that provision or portion of any provision, in any other
jurisdiction. In addition, if a court or arbitrator determines that any
provision or portion of any provision of this Agreement is not reasonable or
valid, either in period of time, geographical area, or otherwise, the parties to
this Agreement agree that such provision should be interpreted and enforced to
the maximum extent which such court or arbitrator deems reasonable or valid.

4.6. Entire Agreement. This Agreement shall constitute the entire agreement
between the parties, and supersedes all prior representations, agreements and
understandings (including any prior course of dealings), both written and oral,
between the parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement. The
terms of this Agreement shall prevail and govern in the event of any conflict in
terms between this Agreement and any Company agreement or Company policy
applicable to the Employee.

4.7. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts,
each of which shall be deemed an original, but all such counterparts shall
together constitute one and the same instrument.

4.8. No Right to Continued Employment. This Agreement shall not confer upon the
Employee any right with respect to continuance of employment by the Company or
any Affiliated Entity, nor shall it interfere in any way with the right of the
Company or any Affiliated Entity to terminate the Employee’s employment at any
time. Specifically, nothing in this Agreement changes Employee’s status as an
express “at-will” employee. Employee agrees that unless specifically provided in
another writing signed by the Employee and the President of the Company,
Employee’s employment by the Company is not for a definite period of time.
Rather, Employee’s employment relationship with the Company is one of employment
“at will” and may be terminated by either Employee or the Company at any time,
with or without cause or prior notice. In addition, the Company has the right to
change Employee’s compensation, duties, assignments, responsibilities, location
of position and any other terms and conditions of his or her employment at any
time, with or without cause or notice.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

4.9 Change in Residence. Employee understands and agrees that upon a change of
Employee’s state of legal residence, Employee shall, if so requested by the
Company, promptly execute and deliver the Company’s standard Confidential and
Proprietary Information, Assignment of Inventions and Non-Competition Agreement
applicable to such state.

4.10. Binding Effect. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of, and be
binding on, the successors and assigns of each of the parties, including,
without limitation, the Employee’s heirs and the personal representatives of the
Employee’s estate and any successor to all or substantially all of the business
and/or assets of the Company.

4.11. General Interpretive Principles. The headings of the sections, paragraphs,
subparagraphs, clauses and subclauses of this Agreement are for convenience of
reference only and shall not in any way affect the meaning or interpretation of
any of the provisions of this Agreement. Words of inclusion shall not be
construed as terms of limitation, so that references to “include,” “includes”
and “including” shall not be limiting and shall be regarded as references to
non-exclusive and non-characterizing illustrations.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, this Agreement has been signed by or on behalf of each of
the parties to this Agreement, all as of the date first above written.
