any Senior Obligation may be rescinded in whole or in part, and any Senior
Obligation may be continued, and the Senior Obligations or the liability of the
Company or any other party upon or for any part thereof, or any collateral
security or guaranty therefor, or right of offset with respect thereto, may,
from time to time, in whole or in part, be renewed, extended, modified,
accelerated, compromised, waived, surrendered, or released; and (b) the Senior
Credit Facility and any document or instrument evidencing or governing the terms
of any other Senior Obligations or any collateral security documents or
guaranties or documents in connection with the Senior Credit Facility or the
Senior Obligations may be amended, modified, supplemented, or terminated, in
whole or in part, as Foothill may deem advisable from time to time, and any
collateral security at any time held by Foothill for the payment of any of

Senior Lenders shall be deemed to have been consummated in reliance upon this
Agreement.

                  SECTION 4.05. LTI'S WAIVERS. LTI waives: (a) any and all
notice of the creation, modification, renewal, extension, or accrual of any of
the Senior Obligations and notice of or proof of reliance by Foothill or the

Foothill or the Senior Lenders any rights which a guarantor or surety could
exercise; but nothing in this Agreement shall constitute LTI a guarantor or
surety; (c) the right, if any, to require Foothill or the Senior Lenders to
marshal or otherwise require Foothill or the Senior Lenders to proceed to
dispose of or foreclose upon collateral in any manner or order; and (d) any

inaction by Foothill or the Sr. Lenders with respect to the Senior Obligations
or with respect to any collateral therefor or any guaranties thereof, this

rights and privileges of Foothill and the Sr. Lenders and hereunder, shall
continue until indefeasible payment in full, in cash, of all of the Senior
Obligations and termination of any obligation of Foothill or the lenders under
the Senior Credit Facility to make loans or advances to, or

<PAGE>   7


guarantee letters of credit for the account of, the Company. All rights, power,
and remedies hereunder shall apply to all past, present, and future Senior
Obligations, including those arising out of successive transactions which may
continue, renew, increase, decrease, or from time to time create new Senior
Obligations. The subordinations, agreements, and priorities set forth herein
shall remain in full force and effect, regardless of whether any party hereto in
the future seeks to rescind, amend, terminate, or reform, by litigation or
otherwise, its respective agreements with the Company.

                  SECTION 4.07. NO LTI LIENS. LTI further agrees that in case
LTI shall, in contravention of the terms of this Agreement, take or receive any
security interest in, or lien by way of attachment, execution, or otherwise, on
any of the real or personal property of the Company, or should take or join in
any other measure or advantage contrary to this Agreement, at any time prior to
the payment in full, in cash, of all of the Senior Obligations, Foothill shall
be entitled to have the same vacated, dissolved, and set aside by such
proceedings at law or otherwise as Foothill may deem proper, and this Agreement
shall constitute full and sufficient grounds therefor and shall entitle Foothill
to become a party to any proceedings at law or otherwise initiated by Foothill
or by any other party, in or by which Foothill may deem it proper to protect
Foothill's interest hereunder.

                  SECTION 4.08. PAYMENTS IN TRUST. Except as otherwise expressly
agreed to herein, if LTI shall receive any payments, collateral security, or
other rights in any property of the Company in violation of this Agreement, such
payment or property shall be received by LTI in trust for Foothill and shall
immediately be delivered and transferred to Foothill.

                  SECTION 4.09. NO PRIOR SUBORDINATIONS. No currently effective
subordinations of the LTI Obligations have previously been executed by LTI for
the benefit of anyone else, and any such subordinations hereafter executed will
be, and shall be expressed to be, subject and subordinate to the terms of this
Agreement.

                  SECTION 4.10. FINANCIAL CONDITION OF THE COMPANY. LTI
represents and warrants to Foothill that LTI is currently informed of the
financial condition of the Company and of all other circumstances which a
diligent inquiry would reveal and which bear upon the risk of nonpayment of the

read and understands the terms and conditions of the Senior Credit Facility. LTI
hereby covenants that LTI will continue to keep informed of the Company's
financial condition, the financial condition of other guarantors of the Senior
Obligations, if any, and of all other circumstances which bear upon the risk of
nonpayment or nonperformance of the Senior Obligations.

                  SECTION 4.11. ADDITIONAL DOCUMENTS. LTI agrees to execute and

                  SECTION 5.02. GOVERNING LAW. This Agreement shall be governed
by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Texas
without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule
(whether of the State of Texas or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the
application of laws of any jurisdictions other than those of the State of Texas.

                  SECTION 5.03. BENEFIT OF AGREEMENT. This Agreement shall be
binding upon and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the parties
hereto and their respective successors and assigns. LTI and the Company agree
that Foothill and the Sr. Lenders are intended to be third party beneficiaries
of this agreement.

                  SECTION 5.04. ASSIGNMENTS. The Company may not assign or
delegate any of its interests or obligations under this Agreement. LTI may
assign its rights under this Agreement to any of its Affiliates or Subsidiaries,
so long as such assignee agrees to be bound by Article IV hereof.

                  SECTION 5.05. AMENDMENT. Neither this Agreement nor any terms
hereof may be changed, waived or discharged or terminated unless such change,
waiver, discharge or termination is in writing signed by the Company and LTI and
acknowledged and agreed to by Foothill.

                  SECTION 5.06. COUNTERPARTS; INTEGRATION. This Agreement may be
executed in several counterparts, each of which is an original, but all of which
together constitute one and the same agreement. This Agreement constitutes the
entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and
supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, and as written,
relating to the subject matter hereof. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a
signature page to this Agreement by telecopier shall be effective as delivery of
a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

                  SECTION 5.07. REMEDIES AND WAIVERS. No failure or delay by any
party hereto in exercising any power, remedy, discretion, authority or other
rights under this Agreement shall waive or impair that or any other right of
such party. No single or partial exercise of such a right shall preclude its

additional or future exercise. No such waiver shall waive any other right under
this Agreement. All waivers or consents given under this Agreement shall be in
writing.

                  SECTION 5.08. SEVERABILITY. Any provision of this Agreement
held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to
such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality
or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability
of the remaining provisions hereof, and the invalidity of a particular provision
in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other
jurisdiction.

                  SECTION 5.09. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. Each party hereto hereby
irrevocably waives to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any right
it may have to a trial by jury in any legal action or proceeding directly or
indirectly arising out of or relating to this agreement or the transactions
contemplated hereby (whether based on contract, tort or any other theory). Each
party hereto (a) certifies that no representative, agent or attorney of the
other party would not, in the event of litigation, seek to enforce the foregoing
waiver and (b) acknowledges that it and the other party hereto have been induced
to enter into this agreement by, among other things, the mutual waiver and
certifications in this section.
