Erga is a preposition in Latin so it wouldn't be declined. I googled ad-ergam and got a few hits on adergam in Portuguese and one where adergam was part of an email address and seems to be split up a dergam.

So I dunno.

[opening mouth and removing all doubt e] it wouldn't be declined. So how come you don't say declinated?

I backformed it from declension, not from declination.
