               AMENDMENT NO. 1 TO REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT
               ------------------------------------------------

     This Amendment No. 1 to Registration Rights Agreement, dated as of August
19, 1991, by and between CMI CORPORATION, an Oklahoma corporation (the
"Company"), and RECOVERY EQUITY INVESTORS, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership
(the "Investor"), is made this 15th day of January, 1993.

     WHEREAS, the parties hereto are parties to that certain Registration Rights
Agreement, dated as of August 19, 1991 (the "Registration Rights Agreement");

     WHEREAS, as of the date hereof, the Company is issuing a warrant
certificate dated the date hereof to the Investor (the "Warrant Certificate");
and

     WHEREAS, the parties hereto desire to amend the Registration Rights
Agreement to redefine the term "Registrable Securities" as used in Section 1
thereof to include equity securities and equity security equivalents issued
pursuant to the Warrant Certificate;

     NOW, THEREFORE, the parties hereto agree as follows:

     1.  Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein shall
have their respective meanings as set forth in the Registration Rights
Agreement.

     2.  The definition of the term "Registrable Securities" contained in
Section 1 of the Registration Rights Agreement is hereby amended to read in its
entirety as follows:

     "Registrable Securities" means New Shares and any other Equity
     Securities or Equity Security Equivalents acquired by the
     Investor pursuant to the provisions of the Investment Agreement
     (including, without limitation, any securities acquired pursuant
     to any exercise by the Investor of its rights under Section 4.2
     of the Investment Agreement and Section 3 of the Shareholders
     Agreement) and any other Equity Securities or Equity Security
     Equivalents acquired pursuant to any exercise by the Investor (or
     any of its permitted assignees) of its rights under that certain
     Warrant Certificate, dated January 15, 1993, granting the
     Investor the right to purchase up to 450,000 shares of Voting
     Class A Common Stock, $0.10 par value, of the Company. As to any
     particular Registrable Securities, once issued, such securities
     shall cease to be Registrable Securities when (a) a registration
     statement with respect to the sale of such securities shall have
     become effective under the Securities Act (as defined below) and
     such securities shall have been disposed of in accordance with
     such registration statement, (b) they shall have been sold as
     permitted by, and in compliance with, the Securities Act, (c)
     they shall have been otherwise transferred, new certificates for
     them not bearing a legend restricting further transfers shall
     have been delivered by the Company and subsequent public
     distribution of them shall not require registration of them under
     the Securities Act, or (d) they shall have ceased to be
     outstanding."

     3. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Registration Rights
Agreement including, without limitation, Sections 2.1(b), 2.1(f) and 2.2(b), or
the Warrant Certificate issued to Larry D. Hartzog ("Hartzog") by the Company on
the date hereof (the "Hartzog Warrant") including, without limitation, Sections
10.3 and 10.5 thereof, the Investor and the Company hereby agree that in
connection with any registration of securities pursuant to Section 2.1 or
Section 2.2 of the Registration Rights Agreement, Hartzog (and/or any
assignee(s) or transferee(s) of Hartzog) shall be entitled to exercise the
registration rights granted to Hartzog pursuant to the Hartzog Warrant to
register Holder Shares (as such term is defined in the Hartzog Warrant) such
that the ratio of the number of Holder Shares to be registered in such
registration by Hartzog (and/or any assignee(s) or transferee(s) of Hartzog) to
the number of shares of Stock (as such term is defined in the Warrant
Certificate issued to the Investor by the Company on January 15, 1993) to be
registered by the Investor in such registration is equal to 1:20. Hartzog and
his assignee(s) and transferee(s) are specifically made third party
beneficiaries of the immediately preceding sentence.

     4. Except as specifically provided herein, the terms and provisions of the
Registration Rights Agreement shall remain unchanged and in full force and
effect. This Amendment No. 1 may be executed in any number of counterparts, all
of which taken together shall constitute one and the same amendatory instrument,
and any of the parties hereto may execute this Amendment No. 1 by signing any
such counterpart. This Amendment No. 1 shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the laws of the State of New York without regard to principles
of conflicts of law.

                          Waiver of Events of Default
                          ---------------------------

     Section 2.1.  Waiver of Events of Default.  Pursuant to paragraph 11(b) of
                   ---------------------------               ---------------
the Loan Agreement, Borrower is required to comply with all covenants,
agreements, and terms of each of the Loan Documents, and pursuant to paragraph
                                                                     ---------
11(e) the occurrence of an event permitting third party creditors to accelerate

required maintain, as of the last day of each quarter of each fiscal year of
Borrower, a ratio of (a) current assets minus inventory, to (b) current

liabilities plus the unpaid principal balance of the Revolving Line of Credit,
            ----
of not less than 1.25 to 1.00 (the "Quick Ratio Covenant").  Additionally,
                                    --------------------

-----------------------
Borrower failed to maintain each of the Quick Ratio Covenant and the Fixed
Charge Coverage Ratio Covenant.  Borrower has also notified Bank of certain
defaults under the Lease Agreements which could result in acceleration of the
payments due thereunder.  Borrower's failure to maintain the Quick Ratio
Covenant and the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio Covenant (collectively, the
"Violated Covenants") for the fiscal quarter ended November 30, 1999,
-------------------

conditions precedent contained herein, Bank hereby waives the Existing Defaults
resulting from Borrower's failure to comply with the Violated Covenants and the
Lease Defaults.

     Borrower hereby agree as follows:

     Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, Bank agrees to lend
     to Borrower, on a revolving basis from time to time during the period
     commencing on the date hereof and continuing through and including 11:00
     a.m. (Dallas, Texas time) on December 31, 2000 (the "Termination Date"),

     such amounts as Borrower may request hereunder; provided, however, the
     total principal amount outstanding at any time shall not exceed the lesser
     of (i) an amount equal to the Borrowing Base (as such term is defined
     hereinbelow), or (ii) $7,500,000 (the "Revolving Line of Credit").  In its
                                            ------------------------
     sole discretion, Bank may elect to make loans available to Borrower under
     the Revolving Line of Credit in excess of the availability under the
     Borrowing Base on one or more occasions, but in the event Bank agrees to do
     so, Bank shall not thereby be deemed to have changed the limits of the
     Borrowing Base or to be obligated to exceed such limits on any other
     occasion.  If at any time the aggregate principal amount outstanding under
     the Revolving Line of Credit shall exceed an amount equal to the Borrowing
     Base, unless Bank otherwise consents, Borrower agrees to immediately repay
     to Bank such excess amount, plus all accrued but unpaid interest thereon.
     Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, Borrower may borrow, repay, and
     reborrow hereunder.  All sums advanced hereunder, together with all accrued
     but unpaid interest thereon, shall be due and payable in full on the
     Termination Date.  The sums advanced under the Revolving Line of Credit
     shall be used for working capital purposes.  In accordance with the terms
     of the Note (as such term is defined hereinbelow), Borrower shall give Bank
     prior notice of each requested advance hereunder specifying (i) the
     aggregate amount of such requested advance, and (ii) the requested date of
     such advance, with such advances to be requested in a form satisfactory to
     Bank.  The advances under the Revolving Line of Credit shall be
     collectively called the "Loan".  The term "Indebtedness", as used herein,
                              ----              ------------
     shall mean the Loan and all other indebtedness owing from time to time to
     Bank by Borrower.

     As used in this Loan Agreement, the term "Borrowing Base" shall have the
                                               --------------

          Accounts, plus twenty-five percent (25.0%) of Borrower's Eligible
                    ----
          Inventory; provided, however, the outstanding amount advanced against
          Eligible Inventory at any time shall not exceed $1,000,000, plus one
                                                                      ----
          hundred percent (100%) of the balance of cash and ninety percent
          (90.0%) of the value of U.S. Treasury securities, respectively, held
          in the securities account described in paragraph 3(d) hereof.
                                                 --------------

     As used herein, the term "Eligible Accounts" shall mean at any time, an
                               -----------------
     amount equal to the aggregate net invoice or ledger amount owing on all
     trade accounts receivable of Borrower for goods sold or leased or services
     rendered in the ordinary course of business, in which Bank has a perfected,
     first priority lien, after deducting (without duplication): (i) each

     such account that is unpaid ninety (90) days or more after the original
     invoice date thereof, (ii) the amount of all discounts, allowances,
     rebates, credits, and adjustments to such accounts, (iii) the amount of all
     contra accounts, set-offs, defenses, or counterclaims asserted by or
     available to the account debtors, (iv) all accounts with respect to which
     goods are placed on consignment or subject to a guaranteed sale or other
     terms by reason of which payment by the account debtor may be conditional,
     (v) all accounts with respect to which Borrower has furnished a payment
     and/or performance bond and that portion of any accounts for or
     representing retainage, if any, until all prerequisites to the immediate
     payment of retainage have been satisfied, (vi) all accounts owing by
     account debtors for which there has been instituted a proceeding in
     bankruptcy or reorganization under the United States Bankruptcy Code or
     other law, whether state or federal, now or hereafter existing for relief

     defined hereinbelow) of Borrower, (viii) all accounts in which the account
     debtor is the United States or any department, agency, or instrumentality
     of the United States, except to the extent an acknowledgment of assignment
     to Bank of such account in compliance with the Federal Assignment of Claims
     Act and other applicable laws has been received by Bank, (ix) all accounts
     due Borrower by any account debtor whose principal place of business is
     located outside the United States and its territories; provided that if any
     such account is supported by either a letter of credit or an agreement of
     indemnity or insurance, each in form and substance satisfactory to Bank,
     Bank may, in its discretion, include such accounts, or any portion thereof,
     in "Eligible Accounts", (x) all accounts subject to any provision
     prohibiting assignment or requiring notice of or consent to such
     assignment, (xi) that portion of all account balances owing by any single
     account debtor which exceeds twenty-five percent (25.0%) of the aggregate
     of all accounts which are owing to Borrower by all account debtors, and

     exercising its reasonable credit judgment; provided, however, if more than
     ten percent (10.0%) of the then balance owing by any single account debtor
     does not qualify as an Eligible Account under the foregoing provisions,
     then the aggregate amount of all accounts owing by such account debtor
     shall be excluded from Eligible Accounts.

     As used herein, the term "Eligible Inventory" shall mean as of any date,
                               ------------------

     which Bank has a first priority lien, excluding (i) inventory which is
     damaged, defective, obsolete, or otherwise unusable in the ordinary course
     of Borrower's business, (ii) inventory which is not in the possession of
     Borrower or which has been rejected by Borrower for any reason, and (iii)
