                  Re:      AMENDMENT TO FINANCING AGREEMENTS

Gentlemen:

         Reference is made to certain financing agreements dated January 11,
1990 between Lexington Precision Corporation ("LPC") and Congress Financial
Corporation ("Congress"), including, but not limited to, an Accounts Financing
Agreement [Security Agreement], as amended (the "Accounts Agreement"), and all
supplements thereto and all other related financing and security agreements
(collectively, all of the foregoing, as the same have heretofore or
contemporaneously been or may be hereafter, amended, replaced, extended,
modified or supplemented, the "Financing Agreements").

         In connection with the financing arrangements pursuant to the Accounts
Agreement and the other Financing Agreements, the parties hereto hereby agree to
amend the Financing Agreements, as set forth below:

         1.       DEFINITIONS. Capitalized terms used herein, unless otherwise
defined herein, shall have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Accounts
Agreement and the other Financing Agreements.

         2.       TERM. The first sentence of Section 9.1 of the Accounts
Agreement, as heretofore amended, is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced
with the following:

                  "This Agreement shall become effective upon acceptance by you
         and shall continue in full force and effect for a term ending February
         17, 2003 (the "Renewal Date"), unless sooner terminated pursuant to the
         terms hereof."

         3.       AMENDMENT FEE. In consideration of the amendments set forth
herein, LPC shall on the date hereof, pay to Congress or Congress, at its
option, may charge the account of LPC maintained by Congress, an amendment fee
in the amount of $60,000, which fee is fully earned as of the date hereof and
shall constitute part of the Obligations.


                                       -1-

         4.       REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND COVENANTS. In addition to the
continuing representations, warranties and covenants heretofore or hereafter
made by LPC to Congress pursuant to the Financing Agreements, LPC hereby
represents, warrants and covenants with and to Congress as follows (which
representations, warranties and covenants are continuing and shall survive the
execution and delivery hereof and shall be incorporated into and made a part of
the Financing Agreements):

                  (a)      No Event of Default exists or has occurred and is
continuing on the date of this Amendment.

                  (b)      This Amendment has been duly executed and delivered
by LPC and is in full force and effect as of the date hereof, and the agreements
and obligations of LPC contained herein constitute the legal, valid and binding
obligations of LPC enforceable against LPC in accordance with their terms.

         5.       CONDITIONS TO EFFECTIVENESS OF AMENDMENT. Anything contained
in this Amendment to the contrary notwithstanding, the terms and provisions of
this Amendment shall only become effective upon the satisfaction of the
following additional conditions precedent:

                  (a)      Each of Congress and LPC shall have received an
executed original or executed original counterparts (as the case may be) of this
Amendment and an executed copy of the Agreement, dated as of January 3, 2003,
attached hereto as Exhibit A, together with an Amendment between LRG and
Congress dated of even date herewith with respect to the LRG Financing
Agreements and the documents and instruments required thereunder (if any) and
the satisfaction of all conditions precedent to the effectiveness thereof, which
shall be in form and substance satisfactory to Congress;

                  (b)      All representations and warranties contained herein,
in the Accounts Agreement and in the other Financing Agreements shall be true
and correct in all material respects; and

                  (c)      No Event of Default shall have occurred and no event
shall have occurred or condition be existing which, with notice or passage of
time or both, would constitute an Event of Default.

         6.       EFFECT OF THIS AMENDMENT. Except as modified pursuant hereto,
the Accounts Agreement and all supplements to the Accounts Agreement and all
other Financing Agreements, are hereby specifically ratified, restated and
confirmed by the parties hereto as of the date hereof and no existing defaults
or Events of Default have been waived in connection herewith. To the extent of
conflict between the terms of this Amendment and the Accounts Agreement or any
of the other Financing Agreements, the terms of this Amendment control.



                                       -2-

         7.       FURTHER ASSURANCES. LPC shall execute and deliver such
additional documents and take such additional actions as may reasonably be
requested by Congress to effectuate the provisions and purposes of this
Amendment.

         8.       GOVERNING LAW. This Amendment shall be governed by and
construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York without reference
to its principles of conflicts of law.

         9.       COUNTERPARTS. Delivery of an executed counterpart of this
Amendment by telefacsimile shall have the same force and effect as delivery of
an original executed counterpart of this Amendment.

                                    AGREEMENT


         This Agreement dated as of January 3, 2003 (the "Agreement"), among
Lexington Precision Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the "LPC"), Lexington
Rubber Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation formerly known as Lexington
Components, Inc. ("LRG"; LPC and LRG are referred to individually as "Borrower"
and collectively as the "Borrowers"), and Congress Financial Corporation
("Congress").

         WHEREAS, Congress and each of the Borrowers have entered into an
Accounts Financing Agreement [Security Agreement] dated as of January 11, 1990,
as amended, and all supplements thereto and related financing and security
agreements (all of the foregoing, as the same have been or may be amended,
replaced, extended, modified, or supplemented, are referred to as the "Financing
Agreements").

         NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants contained
herein and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy
of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto, intending to be legally
bound, hereby agree as follows:

         1.       WAIVER. Subject to paragraph 2 hereof, Congress hereby waives,
until February 17, 2003, any Event of Default resulting solely from the failure
of the LPC to pay any principal or interest due on (a) LPC's 14% Junior
Subordinated Notes due May 1, 2002, (b) LPC's Junior Subordinated Convertible
Increasing Rate Notes due May 1, 2000, (c) LPC's 12 3/4% Senior Subordinated
Notes due February 1, 2000, and/or (d) the 10-1/2% Senior Note due May 1, 2002,
of LPC and LRG (the indebtedness referred to in clauses (a), (b), and (c) is
referred to herein as the "Other Indebtedness").

         2.       RESCISSION OF WAIVERS. The foregoing waivers shall be
automatically rescinded, without notice to LPC or LRG, in the event that the
holder of any Other Indebtedness or trustee in respect thereof seeks to
accelerate the maturity of any such Other Indebtedness or to enforce or exercise
any remedies in respect thereto.

         3.       EFFECTIVE DATE.

                  This Agreement shall be deemed effective as of January 3,
2003.

         4.       REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES. Each of the parties represents
and warrants that: (a) the execution, delivery, and performance of this
Agreement have been duly authorized by all requisite action on its part; and (b)
this Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by it and constitutes its
legal, valid, and binding agreement, enforceable against it in accordance with
its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by applicable
bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, or similar laws affecting
the enforceability of creditors' rights generally or by general equitable
principles.

         5.       NO OTHER AMENDMENTS.

Except as set forth herein, all terms and provisions of the Financing Agreements
among Congress, LPC and LRG shall remain in full force and effect. Except as
expressly set forth



                                      -6-

<PAGE>

herein, no other or further amendment, waiver or consent is implied by, and LPC
and LRG shall not be entitled to, any other or further amendment, waiver or
consent by virtue of the provisions of this Agreement. In addition, without
limiting the foregoing, the waivers of Congress set forth herein do not
constitute an agreement to, and LPC and LRG acknowledge that Congress may
decline to, grant any other or further waivers with respect to the subject
matter hereof or any other matters regardless of whether or not there occurs any
change in facts or circumstances relating to LPC and/or LRG.

         6.       GENERAL PROVISIONS.

                  (a)      DEFINED TERMS. Capitalized terms used herein, unless
otherwise defined herein, shall have the meaning ascribed thereto in the
Financing Agreements.

                  (b)      COUNTERPARTS. This Agreement may be executed by the
parties in any number of counterparts and all of said counterparts taken
together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same instrument. This
Agreement may be signed by facsimile transmission of the relevant signature
pages hereof.

                  (c)      GOVERNING LAW. This Agreement shall be governed by,
and construed and interpreted in accordance with, the internal laws of the State
of New York.

                  (d)      SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS. This Agreement shall be
binding upon and inure to the benefit of the successors and assigns of the
parties hereto.

                  (e)      HEADINGS. The paragraph headings of this Agreement
are for convenience of reference only and are not to be considered in construing
