Such Events of Default committed by Borrowers under the Credit Agreement are

evidence of such waiver as of the date of this Waiver Letter.

Except as otherwise expressly specified in this Waiver Letter, the Credit
Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and is unaffected hereby. This

among Borrowers and Bank that is inconsistent with the express terms of the
Credit Agreement. This Waiver Letter shall not be construed as a waiver of any
other covenants or as a consent to any other transactions.

Borrowers hereby waive and release Bank and its respective directors, officers,
employees, attorneys, affiliates and subsidiaries from any and all claims,
offsets, defenses and counterclaims of which
<PAGE>

Borrowers are aware in connection with the Credit Agreement and all Credit
Documents, such waiver and release being with full knowledge and understanding
of the circumstances and effect thereof and after having consulted legal counsel
with respect thereto.

This letter may be executed in any number of counterparts, by different parties
hereto in separate counterparts and by facsimile signature, each of which when
so executed and delivered shall be deemed to be an original and all of which
taken together shall constitute but one and the same document.

Each reference that is made in the Credit Agreement or any other writing to the
Credit Agreement shall hereafter be construed as a reference to the Credit
Agreement as modified by the terms of this letter. Except as herein otherwise
specifically provided, all provisions of the Credit Agreement shall remain in

Dear Alan:

         This letter will acknowledge our agreement and understanding with
respect to certain modifications to the terms of your employment.

         Section 9 of the Employment Agreement effective as of June 16, 2000
(the "Employment Agreement") by and between you and Dayton Superior Corporation
(the "Company", "we", "us") prohibits you from competing with the Company during
the Term of the Employment Agreement (as defined in the Employment Agreement)
and for two years following the end of the Term.

         As you know, either you or the Company may decide not to renew the Term
of the Employment Agreement by giving the other party a notice of non-extension
no later than 90 days prior to the end of the Term. Thus, for example, if this
notice of non-extension is given by either you or the Company on or prior to
March 18, 2003, the Employment Agreement will expire on June 16, 2003, the last
day of the Initial Term (as defined in the Employment Agreement). As of June 16,
2003, either (1) your employment with the Company will terminate, or (2) if you
continue to perform services for us, you will do so on an "at-will" basis and
your employment will be terminable at any time without any further obligation,
provided that under the terms of the Employment Agreement, the Company will be
entitled to enforce the non-compete provisions set forth in Section 9 of the
Employment Agreement for a period of two years following the expiration of the
Initial Term on June 16, 2003, whether or not you continue to perform services
for us.

         We hereby agree to modify these terms as follows. If (1) the Company
gives valid notice of non-extension of the Term of the Employment Agreement, (2)
you continue to perform services for us on an at-will basis following the
expiration of the Initial Term, or, as applicable, the expiration of any
Extension Term (as defined in the Employment Agreement) and (3) we terminate
your employment following the expiration of the Initial Term or, as applicable,
the expiration of any Extension Term, for any reason other than for "Cause" (as
defined below), then, effective as of the date of such termination (the
"Termination Date"), at the Company's option, either:

                  (i) The non-compete provisions set forth in Section 9 of your
         Employment Agreement shall be null and void in all respects, or

<PAGE>

Alan F. McIlroy, Page 2, May 13, 2002

                  (ii) The non-compete provisions set forth in Section 9 of your
         Employment Agreement shall remain in effect for a period of two years
         following the Termination Date;

provided that, if the Company determines, in accordance with section (ii) above,
that the non-compete provisions set forth in Section 9 of your Employment
Agreement shall remain in effect for a period of two years following the
Termination Date, then, subject to (A) your continued compliance with Sections 9
and 10 of your Employment Agreement (as modified by this letter) throughout such
two-year period, and (B) your execution of a general waiver and release of
claims agreement effective as of the Termination Date in the Company's customary
form, we shall:

                  (i) Pay to you, for the twenty-four month period following the
         Termination Date, in accordance with our regular payroll practice, your
         annual base salary as in effect on the Termination Date; and

                  (ii) For the year in which the termination occurs, pay to you
         a pro-rated amount of bonus based on our executive annual bonus plan as
         in effect at that time; and

                  (iii) Continue for one year your coverage under our medical
         and dental plans and programs in which you were entitled to participate
         immediately prior to the Termination Date (or, if we amend, replace or
         terminate any such plan or program following the Termination Date, our
         medical and dental plans provided to employees similarly situated to
         you), as if you were an active employee during such time, subject to
         standard employee contributions by you as are required under such
         plans, and further subject to your election of "COBRA" continuation
         coverage during such period. All post-employment coverage under such
         plans shall be co-extensive with COBRA continuation coverage required
         by federal (and where applicable by state) law, and shall cease if you
         become eligible for coverage under another employer's plans.

"Cause" shall be defined for purposes of this letter agreement as your:

                  (i) Willful or gross misconduct or material failure in the
         performance of the duties commensurate with your position, other than
         any such failure resulting from your "disability" (as defined below),
         which misconduct or failure continues beyond 14 days after the Company
         notifies you, in writing, of the Company's finding of such misconduct
         or failure; or

                  (ii) Conviction of or plea of guilty or nolo contendre to, a
         felony, or a crime involving moral turpitude; or

                  (iii) Fraud or personal dishonesty involving the Company's
         assets.

<PAGE>

Alan F. McIlroy, Page 3, May 13, 2002

"Disability" shall mean your absence from your duties to the Company on a
full-time basis for a total of 180 days during any twelve month period as a
result of physical, mental or emotional incapacity due to illness, injury or
disease.

         In the event that we terminate your employment without Cause following
the expiration of the Initial Term, or, as applicable, the expiration of any
Extension Term, we will provide you with written notice on or prior to the 10th
business day following such termination as to whether or not we intend to
enforce the non-compete and/or offer you severance benefits as described in this
letter.

         This letter agreement shall be deemed to modify Section 9(a) of the
Employment Agreement to reflect the terms set forth herein.

         In consideration of the foregoing agreements and other good and
valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby
acknowledged, you and the Company agree to the foregoing terms and conditions
set forth in this letter. Please indicate your agreement with and acceptance of
the terms and conditions set forth in this letter by signing below, and return a
copy of this letter to us at your earliest convenience. If you have any
questions, please feel free to call Jim Taronji at 937-428-7161.

                                          Very truly yours,

                                          DAYTON SUPERIOR CORPORATION
