Fatwa:
All perfect praise be to Allah, The Lord of the Worlds. I testify that there is none worthy of worship except Allah, and that Muhammad 
is His slave and Messenger.
is His slave and Messenger. It is permissible for a fasting person to get up in the morning while in a state of sexual defilement, however, it is not permissible for him to delay performing Ghusl (ritual bath) until 11:00 a.m. or until the time of Thuhr- as the questioner mentioned- because he is required to perform the Fajr prayer at its prescribed fixed time while in a state of purity.
Therefore, if one wakes up in the morning and deliberately delays performing Ghusl until the prescribed fixed time of Fajr is over, then he has committed one of the great major sins, and he is obliged to repent to Allah and perform the Fajr prayer at its prescribed fixed time.
However, if one intends to fast and wants to delay Ghusl after the time of Fajr had started but without delaying the performance of the Fajr prayer from its prescribed fixed time, then this is permissible.
Finally, it should be noted that if the sexual intercourse occurred after the beginning of the time of Fajr, then the fast becomes void.
Allah Knows best.
