                          L E A S E   A G R E E M E N T

         THIS Lease, made on JANUARY 25, 2003 by and between Oshkosh/McNeilus
Financial Services Partnership , a California general partnership hereinafter
called "Lessor" and Ready Mix, Inc. hereinafter called "Lessee".

                                  WITNESSETH:

For and in consideration of the mutual covenants and promises hereinafter set
forth, the parties hereto agree as follows:

1.   LEASE. Lessor hereby Leases to Lessee, and Lessee hereby leases and hires
     from Lessor, all machinery, equipment and other property described in (a)
     the schedule executed by the parties concurrently herewith or hereafter and
     made a part hereof, and (b) any schedule or schedules hereafter executed by
     the parties hereto and made a part hereof. All said machinery, equipment
     and other property described in all said schedules is hereinafter
     collectively called "Equipment" or "Leased Equipment", and all said
     schedules are hereinafter collectively called "schedule".

2.   TERM. The term of this Lease respecting each item of Equipment commences
     when said item of Equipment is delivered to Lessee. The term of this
     Lease ends on the date designated for such item in the schedule.

3.   RENT. The rent for any and every item of Equipment described in the
     schedule shall be the amount designated therefor in the schedule. Lessee
     shall pay Lessor said rent in advance, in the amounts and at the times set
     forth in the schedule, at the office of Lessor, or to such other person
     and/or at such other place as Lessor may from time to time designate in
     writing. All payments of rent or any other payments herein shall be in U.S.
     legal tender.

4.   DELIVERY USE AND OPERATION OF THE LEASED EQUIPMENT.

          (a) All units of Equipment shall be received directly from Lessor's
     supplier to Lessee. [Lessor authorizes one or more persons designated by
     Lessee as the authorized representative or representatives of Lessor to
     accept delivery of the Equipment.] Lessee agrees that the Equipment will be
     used by Lessee solely in the conduct of its business, Lessee will allow
     only qualified, properly licensed personnel selected, employed, and
     controlled by Lessee to operate the Equipment in a manner at all times
     complying with all applicable federal, state and local laws and
     regulations. Lessee shall be solely responsible for fines and penalties
     incurred in the use or operation of the Leased Equipment for violations of
     any statute, ordinance, by law or regulation of any duly constituted
     governmental authority. Lessee shall comply with all federal, state, county
     and municipal statutes, ordinances and regulations which may be applicable
     to the leasing, use or operation of the Leased Equipment hereunder and
     shall prepare and furnish to Lessor all documents, returns or forms legally
     required.

          (b) Lessee shall put the Leased Equipment only to the use contemplated
     by the manufacturer and shall use the Equipment in a proper and careful
     manner. Lessee shall affix to the Leased Equipment and maintain thereon
     such labels, plates or decals as may be provided by Lessor, or
     conspicuously mark said Leased Equipment with such language as Lessor may
     reasonably request, to the effect that such Leased Equipment is owned by
     Lessor. Lessee will keep the Equipment free and clear of all liens and
     encumbrances other than those which result from acts of Lessor. Lessor is
     hereby authorized at Lessee's expense to cause this Lease or any statement
     in respect thereto, showing the interest of the Lessor in the Leased
     Equipment, to be filed or recorded with any governmental office deemed
     appropriate by Lessor.

          (c) The Leased Equipment shall be located at the address of Lessee
     specified herein or such other place as shall be mutually agreed upon in
     writing between Lessor and Lessee. Lessee shall promptly advise Lessor of
     any circumstances with respect to location which may in any manner affect
     Lessor's title thereto.

5.   LESSEE'S INSPECTION: CONCLUSIVE PRESUMPTIONS, TAX INDEMNIFICATION. Lessee
     shall inspect the Equipment within forty-eight (48) hours after receipt
     thereof. Unless Lessee, within said period of time, gives written notice to
     Lessor specifying any defect in or other proper objection to the Equipment,
     Lessee agrees that it be conclusively presumed, as between Lessor and
     Lessee, that Lessee has fully inspected and acknowledged that the Equipment
     is in good condition and repair, and that Lessee is satisfied with and has
     accepted the Equipment in such good condition and repair.

        Lessee hereby represents, warrants and covenants that (i) at the time it
     is accepted pursuant to Paragraphs 1 and 5 of this Lease, each unit of
     Equipment will qualify in the hands of Lessor for all of the Tax Benefits
     specified in Section D of the schedule relating to such unit; and,(ii) at
     no time during the term of this Lease with respect to any Equipment will
     the Lessee take or omit to take, nor will it permit any sublessee or
     assignee to take or omit to take, any action (whether or not such act or
     omission is otherwise permitted by the terms of this Lease) which act or
     omission will result in the disqualification of any Equipment for, or the
     recapture of, all or any portion of such Tax Benefits. If as a result of a
     breach of any representation, warranty or covenant of the Lessee contained
     in this Lease any schedule, any certification or declaration delivered to
     Lessor by Lessee or in the Purchase Order relating to any unit of
     Equipment, (x) the tax advisor of Lessor (all references to Lease in
     Paragraph 5 of this Lease include Lessor and the consolidated taxpayer
     group of which Lessor is a member) shall determine that Lessor is not
     entitled to claim on its Federal income tax return all or any portion of
     the Tax Benefits with respect to any unit of Equipment; or (y) any such Tax
     Benefit claimed on the Federal income tax return of the Lessor is
     disallowed or adjusted by the Internal Revenue Service; or (z) any Tax
     Benefit is recomputed or recaptured (any such determination, disallowance,
     recomputation, or recapture being herein called a ("Loss"), then Lessee
     shall pay to Lessor as an indemnity as additional rent such amount, or from
     time to time such amounts, on the next succeeding rental payment date after
     written notice to Lessee by Lessor of such Loss, as shall, in the
     reasonable opinion of Lessor, cause Lessor's after-tax economic yields and
     cash flows being hereinafter called the "Net Economic Return" to equal the
     Net Economic Return that would have been realized by Lessor if such Loss
     had not occurred. The amount payable to Lessor pursuant to this paragraph
     shall be payable upon written statement describing in reasonable detail
     such Loss and the computation of the amount so payable.

        Lessee recognizes that the following acts, among others, may result in a
     Loss: (A) sublease of Equipment to or other use of Equipment by a
     tax-exempt entity, governmental entity, or foreign person, (B) personal,
     nonbusiness use of the Equipment, or (C) use of the Equipment outside the
     United States.

6.   LESSOR'S INSPECTION. Lessor or Lessor's designee, shall at any times during
     business hours have the right to enter into and upon the premises where the
     Equipment may be located for the purpose of inspecting the same or
     observing its use. Lessee
<PAGE>
     shall give Lessor immediate notice of any attachment or other judicial
     process affecting any item of Equipment and shall, whenever requested by
     Lessor, advise Lessor of the exact location of the Equipment.

7.   ALTERATIONS.  Without the prior written consent of Lessor, Lessee shall not
     make any alterations, additions or improvements to the Equipment. All
     additions and improvements of whatsoever kind or nature made to the
     Equipment shall belong to and become the property of Lessor upon the
     expiration, or earlier termination, of this Lease.

8.   MAINTENANCE AND REPAIRS.  Lessee, at its sole cost and expense, will (i)
     furnish complete, suitable and adequate maintenance service for the
     Equipment, including, but not limited to, washing, cleaning, oiling,
     greasing and inspection, and (ii) furnish all fuel, oil and other
     lubricants for the Equipment and (iii) provide all tires and tubes
     necessary for the operation of the Equipment. Lessee, at its own expense
     and cost, shall keep the Equipment in (at all times) good repair, condition
     and working order, and shall furnish any and all funds, labor, parts,
     mechanisms, and devices required to keep the Equipment in good mechanical
     and working order. Any replacement parts installed by Lessee shall become
     part of the Equipment, shall be owned by the Lessor, and shall be subject
     to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

9.   LOSS AND DAMAGE: STIPULATED LOSS VALUE.  Lessee hereby assumes and shall
     bear the entire risk of loss and damage to the Equipment from any and every
     cause whatsoever, including requisition by a governmental agency or entity.
     No loss or damage to the Equipment or any part thereof shall impair any
     obligation of Lessee under this Lease which shall continue in full force
     and effect. In the event of loss or damage of any kind whatever to any item
     of Equipment, Lessee, at Lessee's sole cost and expense and at the option
     of Lessor shall:

     (a)  Place the same in good repair, condition and working order; or

     (b)  Replace the same with like Equipment in good repair, condition and
          working order whereupon such replacement Equipment, if deemed
          satisfactory to Lessor (in its sole and absolute discretion) shall
          become the sole property of Lessor and shall be substituted for the
          lost or damaged Equipment under this Lease and shall be subject to all
          of the terms hereof; or,

     (c)  If same is determined by Lessor to be lost, stolen, destroyed or
          damaged beyond repair, pay Lessor therefor in cash the "Stipulated
          Loss Value" as set forth in the schedule for such equipment. Upon such
          payment this Lease shall terminate with respect to such item of
          Equipment so paid for and Lessee thereupon shall become entitled to
          such item of Equipment as-is-where-is without warranty, express or
          implied, with respect to any matter whatsoever.

10.  SURRENDER.  Upon the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, with
     respect to any item of Equipment, Lessee shall (unless Lessee has paid
     Lessor in cash the "Stipulated Loss Value" of such item of Equipment
     pursuant to paragraph 9 hereof) promptly return the same to Lessor in good
     repair, condition and working order, reasonable wear and tear resulting
     from proper use thereof alone excepted, in the following manner as may be
     specified by Lessor:

     (a)  By delivering such item of Equipment at Lessee's cost and expense to
          such place as Lessor shall specify within the city or county in which
          the same was delivered to Lessee or to which same was moved with the
          written consent of Lessor; or

     (b)  By loading such item of Equipment at Lessee's cost and expense on
          board such carrier as Lessor shall specify and shipping the same,
          fully insured against loss or damage, freight collect, to the
          destination designated by Lessor.

     Prior to so returning any such item of Equipment, Lessee shall, at its own
     cost and expense pay for any repairs required to place the affected units
     of Equipment in the same condition as when received by Lessee, reasonable
     wear and tear excepted. As applied to any unit of Equipment, "reasonable
     wear and tear" shall mean that such unit has been maintained by Lessee in
     "Average Saleable Condition". "Average Saleable Condition" shall be
     satisfied when all of the following minimum standards are met:

     (A)  Tires: All tires shall be round, black, hold air and be of the same
          type (original size) and manufacturer (i.e., matched), and have a
          minimum of fifty percent (50%) remaining tread.

     (B)  Transmission, Rear Axle and Engine: The transmissions and rear axle

          maintained in accordance with manufacturer's recommendations,
          including overhauling as required. At the time of return, the engine
          must be capable of meeting manufacturer's minimum operational
          specifications while under full load. Determinations of whether or not
          these specifications are met shall be made by subjecting such engine
          to crankcase, manifold pressure and dynamometer tests as well as a
          road test, which tests must be performed by a factory-authorized
          service center.

     (C)  Mixer Components: All excess concrete or build up of concrete in or on
          the mixer shall have been removed, and the drum shall be free of
          concrete, jack hammer extrusions and sledge hammer indentations or if

          doors, fenders, chassis and the like shall have been fully repaired,
          and the cost of necessary repairs for damages to exterior and interior
          materials may not exceed $250.00. All lights must be in proper
          operating condition, with lenses not cracked or broken. Windows and
          any glass shall not be broken, chipped or cracked. All operating
          components of the vehicle must meet applicable motor vehicle
          inspection standards and be able to perform their function as
          originally intended. All mechanical and electrical Equipment,
          including radios, heaters and air conditioner units must be in proper
          operating condition. The vehicle must pass Department of
          Transportation inspection upon its return to the lessor.

     (E)  Documents and Records: Maintenance records, maintenance record
          jackets, repair orders, license plates, registration certificates and
          all other similar documents, in their entirety, are held in or affixed
          on the unit of Equipment or are otherwise delivered to Lessor.

11.  INSURANCE.  Lessee shall keep all Equipment insured against all risks of
     loss or damage from every cause whatsoever for not less than the higher of
     Stipulated Loss Value thereof or the full replacement cost thereof, in
     either case as determined by Lessor and shall carry at least bodily
     injury/property damage liability insurance in the amount of $1,000,000.00
     combined single limit. All said insurance shall be in form and amount and
     with companies approved by Lessor and shall be in the joint names of
     Lessor, Lessor's assignee hereunder, and Lessee. Lessee shall pay the
     premiums thereof and deliver said policies, or duplicates thereof, to
     Lessor concurrently herewith and on each policy renewal date hereafter.
     Each insurer shall agree, by endorsement upon the policy or policies issued
     by it or by independent instrument furnished to Lessor, that it will give
     Lessor not less than thirty (30) days written notice before the policy in
     question or the coverage provided thereby shall be altered,


<PAGE>
     canceled, or the coverage terminated [ILLEGIBLE] or allowed to expire.
     Lessee shall deliver to Lessor [ILLEGIBLE] an original certificate of
     insurance for each such policy or renewal thereof in detail reasonably
     satisfactory to Lessor. The proceeds of such insurance, at the option of
     Lessor, shall be applied (a) toward the replacement, restoration or repair
     of the Equipment or (b) toward payment of the obligations of Lessee
     hereunder. Lessee hereby appoints Lessor as Lessee's attorney in fact to
     make claim for, receive payment of, and execute and endorse all documents,
     checks, or drafts for, loss or damage under said insurance policy. Lessee
     shall not utilize the Equipment in any manner or location which would cause
     the Equipment and/or its use not to be covered by such insurance policies.

12.  TAXES. Lessee shall keep the Equipment free and clear of all levies, liens,
     and encumbrances. Lessee, or Lessor at Lessee's expense, shall report, pay
     and discharge when due (i) all license and registration fees, assessments,
     sales, use, property, gross receipts, and value-added taxes, whether or not
     the same shall be assessed against or in the name of Lessor or Lessee, (A)
     arising out of receipts from the Lease, use or operation of the Equipment,
     (B) imposed by any state, federal or local government or any agency or
     department thereof upon the Equipment or any item or portion thereof or the
     purchase use, operation or leasing of the Equipment or otherwise in any
     manner with respect thereto (ii) all other taxes, fees and governmental
     charges similar or dissimilar to the foregoing (excluding any net income
     tax on the income of Lessor, provided that Lessee agrees to pay (x) that
     portion of any such net income tax which is in direct substitution for, or
     which relieves Lessee from, a tax which Lessee would otherwise be obligated
     to pay under the terms of this paragraph and (y) any additional state
     income tax liability of Lessor resulting from the use of the Equipment in
     violation of paragraph 4(c) hereof, together with any penalties or interest
     thereon. If applicable law permits any such tax, assessment, or other fee
     to be contested without being paid. Lessee shall not be required to pay or
     discharge any such tax of assessment while it shall, in good faith by
     appropriate legal proceedings, and its own cost and expense, contest the
     validity thereof in any reasonable manner which will not affect or endanger
     the title and interest of Lessor to the Equipment; however, Lessee shall
     reimburse Lessor for any damages or expenses resulting from such failure to
     pay or discharge. If Lessee desires to contest any tax, fee or assessment
     imposed on Lessor, Lessor shall assist in such contest, provided that the
     timing and manner of such contest is consistent with Lessor's timing and
     manner for contesting other similar taxes, fees or assessments and that
     Lessee pays all cost and expenses associated with such contest.

13.  LESSOR'S PAYMENT. In case of failure of Lessee to procure or maintain the
     insurance required by paragraph 11 hereof or to pay fees, assessments,
     charges and taxes, it is required to pay under paragraph 12 hereof, Lessor
     shall have the right, but shall not be obligated, to effect such insurance,
     or pay said fees, assessments, charges and taxes, as the case may be. In
     that event, the cost thereof shall be repayable to Lessor with the next
     installment of rent, and failure to repay the same shall carry with it the
     same consequence, including interest at one and one-half per cent (1 1/2%),
     or the highest legal interest rate, whichever is less, per month, or any
     part thereof, as failure to pay an installment of rent.

14.  DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTIES AND LIMITATIONS OF DAMAGES.

     (a)  LESSOR SHALL NOT BE LIABLE TO LESSEE FOR ANY LIABILITY, CLAIM, LOSS,
          DAMAGE (DIRECT OR CONSEQUENTIAL) OR EXPENSE OF ANY KIND OR NATURE
          CAUSED, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, BY ANY EQUIPMENT OR ANY INADEQUACY
          THEREOF FOR ANY PURPOSE, OR ANY DEFICIENCY OR DEFECT (LATENT OR
          PATENT) THEREIN, OR THE USE OR MAINTENANCE THEREOF, OR ANY REPAIRS,
          SERVICING OR ADJUSTMENTS THERETO, OR ANY DELAY IN PROVIDING OR FAILURE
          TO PROVIDE ANY THEREOF, OR ANY INTERRUPTION OR LOSS OF SERVICE OR USE
          THEREOF, OR ANY LOSS OF BUSINESS, OR ANY DAMAGE WHATSOEVER AND HOWEVER
          CAUSED. LESSOR SHALL NOT, BY VIRTUE OF HAVING LEASED THE EQUIPMENT
          UNDER THIS LEASE, BE DEEMED TO HAVE MADE ANY REPRESENTATION OR
          WARRANTY, WHETHER WRITTEN OR ORAL OR EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, AS TO THE
          MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS (FOR USE OR FOR ANY PARTICULAR PURPOSE),
          DESIGN OR CONDITION OF, OR AS TO THE QUALITY OF THE MATERIAL OR
          WORKMANSHIP IN THE EQUIPMENT.

               AS BETWEEN LESSOR AND LESSEE, LESSOR LEASES THE EQUIPMENT AS-IS,
          WITHOUT WARRANTY OR REPRESENTATION, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, AS TO
          (i) THE FITNESS OR MERCHANTABILITY OF ANY ITEM OR ITEMS OF EQUIPMENT,
          (ii) LESSOR'S TITLE THERETO, (iii) LESSEE'S RIGHT TO THE QUIET
          ENJOYMENT THEREOF, OR (iv) ANY OTHER MATTER WHATSOEVER, IT BEING
          AGREED THAT ALL SUCH RISKS, AS BETWEEN LESSOR AND LESSEE ARE TO BE
          BORNE BY LESSEE. Lessee acknowledges that each unit of Leased
          Equipment subject to this Lease is of a type, size, design and
          capacity selected solely by Lessee. If the Leased Equipment does not
          operate as represented or warranted by the manufacturer or seller
          thereof, or is unsatisfactory for any reason, Lessee shall make any
          claim on account thereof solely against the manufacturer or seller and
          no such occurrence shall relieve Lessee of any of its obligations
          hereunder. Lessor hereby appoints and constitutes Lessee its agent and
          attorney-in-fact during the term of this Lease to assert and enforce
          from time to time, in the name and for the account of Lessor and
          Lessee, as their interests may appear, but in all cases at the sole
          cost and expense of Lessee, whatever claims and rights Lessor may have
          as owner of the Equipment against any suppliers, manufacturers or
          contractors in respect thereof; provided, however, that Lessor, in its
          sole discretion, may at any time and on a case-by-case basis revoke
          said appointment of Lessee as Lessor's agent and attorney-in-fact, and
          thereafter assert directly such claims and rights it may have as
          owner, but again at the sole cost and expense of Lessee. Any recovery
          in cash or cash equivalent under such warranty shall be made payable
          jointly to Lessee and Lessor. At Lessor's option, all cash proceeds or
          equivalent thereof from such warranty recovery shall be used to repair
          or replace the Leased Equipment.

     (b)  Inability of Lessee to use the Equipment due to any reason including,
          without limitation, any defect in or unfitness of the Equipment, any
          action by any governmental authority (including, without limitation,
          legislative, executive, administrative or judicial bodies) or any
          action by an independent supervisory agency, shall not relieve Lessee
          of the obligation hereunder to pay rentals for the full term of this
          Lease therefor, once the Equipment has been accepted or presumed
          accepted by Lessee under paragraph 5 hereof.

15.  INDEMNIFICATION BY LESSEE.

     (a)  Lessee covenants and agrees to indemnify, save harmless and defend
          Lessor, all officers, agents, and employees of Lessor, the parent
          companies and subsidiary companies of Lessor, their officers, agents
          and employees, and the manufacturers and distributors of the Leased
          Equipment, including but not limited to McNeilus Truck and
          Manufacturing,



<PAGE>
          Inc., a Minnesota corporation (all hereinafter collectively called
          "Indemnitees") from and against any and all, losses, damages, fees,
          penalties, expenses, and injuries and from and against any and all
          claims, suits, actions, or legal proceedings of any kind brought
          against Indemnitees, or any of them for or on account of any person or
          persons, corporation or corporations, or on account of any injuries
          received or sustained by any person or persons in any manner, directly
          or indirectly caused by, incident to or growing out of the actual or
          alleged use, operation, or maintenance of the Leased Equipment between
          the time of delivery thereof to Lessee and the time of surrender
          thereof by Lessee to Lessor for disposition, including without
          limitation, traffic violations. Lessee further agrees to take upon
          itself the settlement of all claims and the defense of any suit or
          suits or legal proceedings of any kind brought to enforce such claim
          or claims, and to pay all judgments entered in such suit or suits and
          all costs, attorneys' fees or other expenses. Such settlements and
          defense efforts shall be conducted by a reputable attorney employed by
          Lessee and reasonably acceptable to Lessor. In any instance where
          said claims in any way affect an Indemnitees' interests under this
          Agreement, Lessee shall not consummate any settlement without the
          affected Indemnitees' prior written consent. Notwithstanding the
          foregoing, Lessor shall be entitled at any time, at its own cost and
          expense (but at Lessee's cost and expense if Lessee is not adequately
          representing or, because of a conflict of interest, may not adequately
          represent, any interest of Lessor), to participate in the defense
          and/or settlement of any such claims, suits or legal proceedings and
          to be represented by attorneys of its own choosing. If Lessor elects
          to participate in such defense, Lessee shall cooperate with Lessor in
          the conduct thereof.

     (b)  The indemnification, covenants, and other obligations contained in
          paragraph 15(a) shall continue in full force and effect
          notwithstanding the termination of this Agreement or the surrender of
          the Leased Equipment by Lessee.

     (c)  THE PROVISIONS OF THIS PARAGRAPH 15 COMPREHEND, INCLUDE, AND COVER,
          BUT ARE NOT LIMITED TO, CLAIMS HOWEVER ARISING, WHETHER BY REASON OF
          NEGLIGENCE, BREACH OF WARRANTY, DEFECT IN MANUFACTURE, MAINTENANCE, OR
          OTHERWISE, ON THE PART OF ANY ONE OR MORE OF THE INDEMNITEES, OR ANY
          OTHER PARTY TO THIS LEASE, EVEN THOUGH STRICT LIABILITY IS CLAIMED.

     (d)  With the exception of Lessor, the above named Indemnitees are intended
          as third-party beneficiaries to this Lease. By entering into the
          covenants to indemnify in paragraph 15(b), Lessee intends to benefit
          all Indemnitees. Lessee's agreement to so indemnify is given in
          consideration for the agreement by Lessor to enter into this Lease.
          Lessee understands and agrees that, with the exception of Lessor, all
          above named Indemnitees have no liability or obligation to Lessee
          under the terms of this Lease and that said Indemnitees are named in
          this Lease solely as beneficiaries of Lessee's covenants to indemnify
          assumed in this paragraph 15.

     (e)  The indemnification contained in paragraph 15(a) shall cover all
          costs and expenses incurred by Indemnitees in connection with an
          indemnification claim including, without limitation, attorney's fees.

16.  SECURITY.  As security for the prompt and full payment of the rent, and the
     faithful and timely performance of all provisions of this Lease, and any
     extension or renewal thereof, on its part to be performed, Lessee has
     pledged and deposited with Lessor the amount or amounts set forth in the
     schedule. In the event any default shall be made in the performance of any
     of the covenants on the part of Lessee herein contained with respect to any
     items of Equipment, Lessor shall have the right, but shall not be
     obligated, to apply any or all of said security to the curing of such
     default.  Any such application by Lessor shall not be a defense to any
     action by Lessor arising out of said default; and, upon demand, Lessee
     shall restore said security to the full amount or amounts set forth in the
     schedule.  Upon the expiration, or earlier termination of this Lease, or
     any extension or renewal thereof, provided Lessee has paid all of the rent
     herein called for and fully performed all of the other provisions of this
     Lease on its part to be performed, Lessor will return to Lessee any then
     remaining balance of said security.

17.  DEFAULT.  If Lessee with regard to any item or items of Equipment fails to
     pay any rent or other amount herein provided within fifteen (15) days after
     the same is due and payable, or if Lessee with regard to any item or items
     of Equipment fails to observe, keep or perform any other provision of this
     Lease required to be observed, kept or performed by Lessee, or if Lessee
     commits or omits any act which Lessor reasonably determines to impair
     Lessee's prospect of making payments or performing any of the other
     covenants required by Lessee hereunder, Lessor shall have the right to
     exercise any one or more of the following remedies:

     (a)  To declare the entire amount of rent hereunder immediately due and
          payable as to any or all items of Equipment, without notice or demand
          to Lessee.

     (b)  To sue for and recover all rents, and other payments, then accrued or
          thereafter accruing, with respect to any or all items of Equipment.

     (c)  To take possession of any or all items of Equipment, without demand or
          notice, wherever the same may be located, without any court order or
          other process of law. Lessee hereby waives any and all damages
          occasioned by such taking of possession. Any said taking of possession
          shall not constitute a termination of this Lease as to any or all
          items of Equipment unless Lessor expressly so notifies Lessee in
          writing.

     (d)  To terminate this Lease as to any or all items of Equipment.

     (e)  To pursue any other remedy at law or equity.

        Notwithstanding any said repossession, or any other action which Lessor
     may take, Lessee shall be and remain liable for the full performance of all
     obligations on the part of Lessee to be performed under this Lease. All
     such remedies are cumulative and may be exercised concurrently or
     separately.

18.  BANKRUPTCY. Neither this Lease nor any interest therein is assignable or
     transferable by operation of law. If any proceeding under the Bankruptcy
     Act, as amended, is commenced by or against the Lessee, or if the Lessee is
     adjudged insolvent, or if the Lessee makes any assignment for the benefit
     of its creditors, or if a writ of attachment or execution is levied on any
     item or items of the Equipment and is not released or satisfied within ten
     (10) days thereafter, or if a receiver is appointed in any proceeding or
     action to which the Lessee is a party with authority to take possession or
     control of any item or items of the Equipment, Lessor shall have and may
     exercise any one or more of the remedies set forth in paragraph 17 hereof;
     and this Lease shall, at the option of Lessor, without notice, immediately
     terminate and shall not be treated as an asset of Lessee after the exercise
     of said option.

19.  CONCURRENT REMEDIES. No right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved
     to Lessor is exclusive of any other right or remedy herein or by law or
     equity provided or permitted; but each shall be cumulative of every other
     right or remedy given
<PAGE>
    hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute or
    otherwise [illegible] may be enforced concurrently therewith or from time to
    time.

20. LESSOR'S EXPENSES. Lessee shall pay Lessor all costs and expenses, including
    attorneys' fees, incurred by Lessor in exercising any of its rights or
    remedies hereunder or enforcing any of the terms, conditions, or provisions
    hereof.

21. ASSIGNMENT. WITHOUT THE PRIOR WRITTEN CONSENT OF LESSOR, LESSEE SHALL NOT
    (a) ASSIGN, TRANSFER, PLEDGE OR HYPOTHECATE THIS LEASE, THE EQUIPMENT OR ANY
    PART THEREOF, OR ANY INTEREST THEREIN, OR (b) SUBLET OR LEND THE EQUIPMENT
    OR ANY PART THEREOF, OR PERMIT THE EQUIPMENT OR ANY PART THEREOF TO BE USED
    BY ANYONE OTHER THAN LESSEE OR LESSEE'S EMPLOYEES. CONSENT BY LESSOR TO ANY
    OF THE FOREGOING PROHIBITED ACTS APPLIES ONLY IN THE GIVEN INSTANCE AND IS
    NOT A CONSENT TO ANY SUBSEQUENT LIKE ACT BY LESSEE OR ANY OTHER PERSON.

        SUBJECT ALWAYS TO THE FOREGOING, THIS LEASE INURES TO THE BENEFIT OF AND
    IS BINDING UPON, THE HEIRS, LEGATEES, PERSONAL REPRESENTATIVES, SUCCESSORS
    AND ASSIGNS OF THE PARTIES HERETO.

22. LESSOR'S ASSIGNMENT. All rights of Lessor hereunder may be assigned,
    pledged, mortgaged, transferred, or otherwise disposed of, either in whole
    or in part, without notice to Lessee. If Lessor assigns this Lease or the
    rentals due or to become due hereunder or any other interest herein, whether
    as security for any of its indebtedness or otherwise, no breach or default
    by Lessor hereunder or pursuant to any other agreement between Lessor or
    Lessee, should there be one, shall excuse performance by Lessee of any
    provision hereof, and Lessee hereby waives and is stopped from asserting any
    defense, legal or equitable, pursuant to this Lease or otherwise, against
    any assignee hereunder. No such assignee shall be obligated to perform any
    duty, covenant or condition required to be performed by Lessor under the
    terms of this Lease.

        It is hereby agreed that the rights of the Lessee are subject and
    subordinate to any lien given by Lessor to secure the purchase price of the
    Equipment Leased hereby. Lessee acknowledges that any assignment or transfer
    by Lessor shall not materially change Lessee's duties or obligations under
    this Lease nor materially increase, the burdens or risks imposed on Lessee.
    Lessee agrees that Lessor may assign or transfer this Lease or Lessor's
    interest in the Equipment even if said assignment or transfer could be
    deemed to materially affect the interests of Lessee.

23. OWNERSHIP. The Equipment is, and shall at all times be and remain, the sole
    and exclusive property of Lessor; and the Lessee shall have no right, title
    or interest therein or thereto except as expressly set forth in this Lease.

24. PERSONAL PROPERTY. The Equipment is, and shall at all times be and remain,
    personal property notwithstanding that the Equipment, or any part thereof,
    may now be, or hereafter become, in any manner affixed or attached to, or
    imbedded in, or permanently rested upon, real property or any building
    thereon, or attached in any manner to what is permanent as by means of
    cement, plaster, nails, bolts, screws, or otherwise.

25. LATE PAYMENTS. Should Lessee fail to pay any part of the rent herein
    reserved or any other sum required to be paid by Lessee to Lessor later than
    10 (10) dates after the due date thereof, Lessee shall pay unto the Lessor a
    late charge equal to 5% of such delinquent payment.

26. OFFSET. Lessee hereby waives any and all existing and future claims, and
    offsets, against any rent or other payments due hereunder; and agrees to pay
    the rent and other amounts hereunder regardless of nay offset or claim which
    may be asserted by Lessee or on its behalf.

27. NON WAIVER. No covenant or condition of this Lease can be waived except by
    the written consent of Lessor. Forbearance or indulgence by Lessor in any
    regard whatsoever shall not constitute a waiver of the covenant or condition
    to be performed by Lessee to which the same may apply, and, until complete
    performance by Lessee of said covenant or condition, Lessor shall be
    entitled to invoke any remedy available to Lessor under this Lease or by law
    or in equity despite said forbearance or indulgence.

28. ADDITIONAL DOCUMENTS. If Lessor shall so request, Lessee shall execute and
    deliver to Lessor such documents as Lessor shall deem necessary or desirable
    for purposes of recording or filing to protect the interest of Lessor in the
    Equipment.

29. ENTIRE AGREEMENT. This Lease together with the schedule and any statements,
    certificates and addendums executed in connection with the execution of this
    Lease and/or schedule constitutes the entire agreement between Lessor and
    Lessee; and they shall not be amended, altered or changed except by a
    written agreement signed by the parties hereto. Each schedule shall
    constitute a separate lease incorporating the terms of this Master Lease. To
    the extent required to satisfy section 7701(h) of the Internal Revenue Code,
    the agreement also includes documents relating to the Lessor's financing of
    acquisition of Equipment.

30. NOTICES. All notices under this Lease shall be in writing. Service of all
    notices under this Lease shall be sufficient if given personally or mailed
    to the party involved at its respective address herein set forth, or at such
    address as such party may provide in writing from time to time. Any such
    notice mailed to such address shall be effective when deposited in the
    United States mail, duly addressed and with postage prepaid.

31. GENDER; NUMBER. Whenever the context of this Lease requires, the neuter
    gender includes the masculine or feminine, and the singular number includes
    the plural; and whenever the word "Lessor" is used herein, it shall include
    all assignees of Lessor. If there is more than one Lessee named in the
    Lease, the liability of each shall be joint and several.

32. TITLES. The titles to the paragraphs of this Lease are solely for the
    convenience of the parties, and are not an aid in the interpretation of the
    instrument.

33. TIME. Time is of the essence of this Lease and each and all of its
    provisions.

34. GOVERNING LAW. The laws of the State of Minnesota shall govern all questions
    or disputes relating to the interpretation, performance, validity,
    enforcement or effect of this Agreement.

35. STATUTE OF LIMITATIONS. Any action by Lessee against Lessor for any default
    by Lessor under this Lease, including breach of warranty or indemnity, shall
    be commenced within one (1) year after any such cause of action accrues.

36. FINANCE LEASE. Lessor and Lessee agree that this Lease is a "Finance Lease"
    as defined in Section 336.2A-103 of the Minnesota Statutes (1989). The
    Lessor has not selected, manufactured or supplied the Equipment. The Lessor
    acquired the Equipment in connection with this Lease. The Lessee has
    received a copy of the contract evidencing the Lessor's purchase of the
    Equipment on or before the signing of the Lease contract or the Lessee has
    approved of the contract evidencing the Lessor's purchase of the Equipment.
    Lessee accepts the provisions of said contract and agrees to be bound by all
    waivers of warranties and limitations of damages recoverable from the
    manufacturer of said Equipment.
<PAGE>
     37.  JURY TRIAL WAIVER BOTH PARTIES TO THIS AGREEMENT HEREBY WAIVE ANY AND
          ALL RIGHT TO ANY TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDINGS DIRECTLY
          OR INDIRECTLY HEREUNDER.

     38.  ASSIGNEE NOTIFICATION Lessee acknowledges and agrees that all of the
          rights under the Lease in and to the Leased Property, including
          Lessee's right to possession of the Leased Property, are subordinate,
          junior, and subject to the rights and claims of any assignee of
          Lessor's rights under the Lease and any such Assignee's successors and
          assigns (the "Assignee") against the Leased Property under any
          instrument, lease, mortgage or title retention or other security
          agreement, whether now existing or hereafter created, including but
          not limited to the right of the Assignee to take possession of the
          Leased Property. Lessee consents and agrees to the assignment to any
          Assignee of (I) all monies due or to become due to Lessor under the
          lease and (II) all rights and privileges of Lessor under the Lease.
          Lessee promises and agrees to settle all claims against Lessor
          directly with Lessor and hereby waives, relinquishes, and disclaims as
          to the Assignee all counterclaims, rights of set-off, and defenses
          Lessee may have against Lessor, including any right to withhold
          payment of or to refrain from paying, any monies that are due or to
          become due under the terms of the Lease, except that Lessee shall not
          be liable to Assignee for monies paid to Lessor in accordance with the
          terms of the Lease prior to the time Assignee notifies Lessee to pay
          Assignee directly. Thereafter, the Lessee agrees to pay directly to
          the Assignee all monies owing under the Lease. Lessee represents that,
          except as stated in the Lease, it has not prepaid any rentals or other
          monies owing under the Lease, and no deposits have been made.  Lessee
          agrees and acknowledges that Assignee will not assume and will not
          have any obligations or liabilities under the Lease to Lessee or to
          any other person by reason of any aforementioned assignment or
          otherwise. Lessee agrees that it will not, without Assignee's prior
          written consent: (I) prepay rentals or other monies owing under the
          Lease, (II) modify or amend the Lease, (III) assign or sublet its
          rights under the Lease or in the Leased Property, (IV) exercise any of
          its rights under the Lease which are exercisable only with the consent
          of Lessor, or (V) return the Leased Property to Lessor, Lessee hereby
          acknowledging and agreeing to hold the Leased Property as bailee for
          Assignee for the purpose of perfecting Assignee's lien, title
          retention and/or security interest in the Leased Property as against
          Lessor and its creditors. Lessee represents that it has no purchase or
          renewal option concerning the Leased Property other than as stated in
          the Lease.  Lessee agrees that, at the same time it sends to Lessor
          any notice under the Lease, it will send a copy thereof to Assignee at
          such Addresses as Assignee may specify from time to time in writing.

     THIS AGREEMENT SHALL NOT BE EFFECTIVE UNTIL APPROVED AND SIGNED AT OFFICE
     OF LESSOR IN MINNESOTA.

     NO ORAL AGREEMENT, GUARANTEE, PROMISES, REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY SHALL
     BE BINDING. IF ANY CHANGES ARE TO BE MADE IN THIS LEASE AGREEMENT, THEY
     SHALL BE IN WRITING SIGNED BY THE PARTIES HERETO.

     IN WITNESS WHEREOF the parties hereto have executed these presents the
     day and year first above written.

                         CORPORATE TRUE LEASE GUARANTY
                Oshkosh/McNeilus Financial Services Partnership,
            County Road 34 East, P.O. Box 70 Dodge Center, MN 55927

To induce you to enter into a Lease, with you as Lessor and Ready Mix, Inc. as
Lessee, which Lease was executed by Lessee on January 25, 2003 and covers the
Equipment described in the Lease and any Schedule now or hereafter made a part
thereof but without in any way binding you to enter into the Lease, the
undersigned, for good and valuable consideration, does hereby guarantee to you,
your successor and assigns, the due, regular and punctual payment of the total
rental as provided in the Lease, and any Schedules now or hereafter made a part
thereof, whether it represents an original balance, a casualty or stipulated
loss value, a balance reduced by part payment, or a deficiency after sale of
Equipment or otherwise and does hereby further guarantee that the Lessee will
faithfully perform and fulfill all agreements and obligation provided in the
Lease at the time and in the manner therein provided. Undersigned does hereby
further guarantee to pay on demand all losses, costs, attorney's fees or
expenses which may be suffered by you by reason of Lessee's default or default
of the undersigned. The undersigned agrees that nothing hereby shall be deemed
to render this Guaranty in any way conditional, or to require you first to seek
or exhaust any remedy against Lessee, its successors, or assigns, or any other
person obligated or liable under said Lease, this Guaranty or any other
instrument; and it is agreed that you may, upon default of Lessee, or at any
time thereafter, make demand upon and receive payment of any sum or performance
of any covenant or agreement hereunder guaranteed by the undersigned, with or
without notice or demand for payment or performance by Lessee, its successors or
assigns, or any other person. Undersigned waives any and all impairment of its
rights (including, but not limited to, the release of any obligor or collateral
or any part thereof (with or without substitution), failure to perfect or
maintain the perfection of any interest in any collateral or property, or
failure to have title to the Lease Equipment) whether intentional or negligent,
by operation of law or otherwise.

     Notice of acceptance of the guaranty and of any default by the Lessee or
any other person is hereby waived. Presentment, protest, demand, and notice of
protest, demand and dishonor of the Lease, and the exercise of possessory,
collection or other remedies on the Lease, are hereby waived. Notice of adverse
change in Lessee's financial condition or of any other fact which might
materially increase the risk of the undersigned is also waived, and the
undersigned agrees that you shall not be required to first foreclosure, proceed
against, or exhaust any collateral or security for any indebtedness or
obligation hereby guaranteed, before requiring the undersigned to pay the full
amount of liability hereby created. Suit may be brought and maintained against
the undersigned, at your election, without joinder of the Lessee or any other
person as parties thereto. The extension of the time of payment or the renewal
of the Lease or the extension of the time of performance of agreements or the
expansion of the Equipment covered by the Lease or any other indulgence may be
granted to the Lessee, its successors or assigns, or any other person, without
notice to the undersigned, and all settlements, compromises, accounts stated and
agreed balances made in good faith between the Lessee, its successors and
assigns and you shall be binding upon and shall not affect the liability of the
undersigned. The undersigned's obligations hereunder shall in no way be affected
or impaired by (i) Lessee's voluntary or involuntary bankruptcy, assignment for
the benefit of creditors, reorganization or similar proceedings affecting the
Lessee or any of its assets, and (ii) the release of Lessee from any of its
agreements contained in the Security Agreements by operation of law or
otherwise. THE UNDERSIGNED AGREES NOT TO SEEK CHANGE IN VENUE FROM ANY
JURISDICTION AND COURT IN WHICH ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR LITIGATION IS BROUGHT
BY YOU. As used in this Guaranty, the word "person" shall include any
individual, corporation, or partnership, and refers to the undersigned and to
anyone absolutely, contingently, partly or wholly liable for payment and/or
performance of the Lessee's obligations being guaranteed hereunder. This
Guaranty and each of its provisions may only be waived, modified, varied,
released, terminated or surrendered, in whole or in part, by a duly authorized
written instrument signed by you. No failure by you to exercise your rights
hereunder shall give rise to any estoppel against you, or excuse the undersigned
from performing hereunder. Your waiver of any right to demand performance
hereunder shall not be waiver of any subsequent or other right to demand
performance hereunder.

     The undersigned further agrees that, without notice to the undersigned,
this Guaranty may be assigned at any time or from time to time, in whole, or in
part, to any assignees of Lessor's interest in the said Lease. This Guaranty
shall bind the undersigned's successors and assigns and the benefits thereof
shall extend to and include your successors and assigns. In the event of default
hereunder, you may at any time inspect undersigned's records, or at your option,
undersigned shall furnish you with a current independent audit report.

     If any provisions of this Guaranty are in conflict with any applicable
statute, rule or law, then such provisions shall be deemed null and void to the
extent that they may conflict therewith, but without invalidating any other
provisions hereof. Each signatory on behalf of a corporate guarantor warrants
that he had authority to sign on behalf of such corporation and by so signing,
