Execution Copy

CONVERSION CAP AND VOTING AGREEMENT

This Conversion Cap and Voting Agreement, effective as of February 26, 2010 (this “Agreement”), is by and among the persons, entities and managed accounts listed on Schedule A (collectively, the “York Group,” and each, individually, a “member” of the York Group) and Accuride Corporation (the “Company”).

WHEREAS, pursuant to the Third Amended Joint Plan of Reorganization of the Company (the “Plan”) on the effective date of the Plan (the “Effective Date”), the York Group shall be issued (i) $18,039,606 in aggregate principal amount of 7.5% Senior Convertible Notes due 2020 (the “Notes”), convertible into common stock of the Company (the “Common Stock”) and (ii) an aggregate of 12,627,747 shares of Common Stock (the Notes and the Common Stock, “Company Securities);

WHEREAS, the Notes are convertible into Common Stock at any time prior to the close of business on the second business day immediately preceding the maturity date of the Notes in accordance with the terms thereof and holders of the Notes are entitled to vote on all matters presented to holders of Common Stock for a vote;

WHEREAS, after issuance of the Company Securities on the Effective Date, the York Group shall, in the aggregate, beneficially own in excess of 9.999% of the shares of outstanding Company Securities; and

WHEREAS, the York Group and the Company wish to limit the number of shares of Common Stock that the York Group beneficially owns at any time, and to effect certain limitations on the York Group’s voting power with respect to the Company;

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of and reliance upon the mutual covenants and agreements contained herein, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

1.             Maximum Limitation of Ownership of Common Stock.

(a)  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in the terms and conditions of the Notes, the York Group may not, and agrees that it will not, use its ability to convert the Notes into shares of Common Stock or exercise its right to acquire shares of Common Stock under the Notes, or otherwise acquire shares of Common Stock, to the extent that such conversion or acquisition would result in the York Group and any other Persons (as such term is defined in the Plan) whose beneficial ownership of Common Stock would be aggregated with the York Group’s for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”), as amended, owning more than 9.999% of the total outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company (including for such purpose the shares of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion

or exercise).  Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon ninety (90) days prior written notice to the Company, the York Group may acquire shares of Common Stock such that the York Group’s ownership of Common Stock of the Company exceeds 9.999% (a “Termination Election”), and on the ninetieth (90th) day following delivery of such Termination Election to the Company, the terms of this Agreement shall terminate and be of no further force and effect.

(b)  The Company shall, promptly upon its receipt of any conversion notice tendered by the York Group (or any designee of the York Group) pursuant to the terms of the Notes, notify the York Group by telephone and by facsimile of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on such date and the number of shares of Common Stock which would be issuable to the York Group if the conversion requested in such notice were effected in full, whereupon, notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in the terms of the Notes, the York Group shall, within one business day of the Company’s notice required by this Section 1(b) by telephone or by facsimile, revoke such conversion to the extent that it is determined that such conversion would result in the York Group owning more than 9.999% of such outstanding shares of Common Stock.

(c)   The York Group represents that, as of the date hereof, it does not own any Company Securities other than Company Securities issued to members of the York Group as of the Effective Date, as set forth in the first recital of this Agreement .

(d)   For all purposes hereunder, beneficial ownership of the outstanding shares of Company Securities, as applicable, shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act.

2.           Agreement to Vote Shares; Irrevocable Proxy.  During the term of this Agreement, at every meeting of the shareholders of the Company, and at every adjournment or postponement thereof, and on every action or approval by written consent of the shareholders of the Company, the York Group shall, to the extent that the York Group beneficially owns shares of Company Securities (or other voting securities of the Company) representing in excess of 9.999% of the total voting power of the outstanding Company Securities (the shares representing such excess, the “Excess Voting Shares”) and to the extent not voted by the person(s) appointed under the Proxy, with respect to any proposal presented to holders of Voting Securities, vote (or cause to be voted), including by written consent if requested by the Company, the Excess Voting Shares in the same proportion as all other votes cast on such proposal (excluding any votes cast by the York Group other than Excess Voting Shares).  The York Group agrees not to take any actions contrary to its obligations under this Agreement.  Upon the written request of the Company, each member of the York Group will execute and deliver, or cause to be executed and delivered, to the Company an irrevocable proxy (in accordance with Delaware General Corporation Law), coupled with an interest sufficient in law to support an irrevocable proxy, in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Company and the York Group (the “Proxy”), in order to give effect to this Section 2 with respect solely to the voting of the Excess Voting Shares.  The Proxy, if delivered, shall terminate automatically upon the termination of this Agreement.

3.             Termination.   This Agreement shall terminate and be of no further force and effect on the earlier of: (i) the three year anniversary of the date hereof; (ii) at the time the York Group and any other Persons (as such term is defined in the Plan) whose beneficial ownership of Common Stock would be aggregated with the York Group’s for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act beneficially own in the aggregate 9.999% or less of the Company Securities (without giving effect to the limitations contained in Section 1 and 2); or (iii) on the 90th day following the delivery of a Termination Election.  This Agreement shall not restrict or limit in any way York’s ability to convert any Notes in connection with the sale of shares of Common Stock in a registered offering of Common Stock, but only to the extent of such Notes converted and shares of Common Stock so sold.

4.             Further Assurances.  The York Group and the Company shall, from time to time and as applicable, execute and deliver any agreements or documents and take any other actions as may be necessary or advisable to effectuate the provisions and intent of this Agreement.

5.             Governing Law.   This Agreement and all matters arising out of or related to this Agreement shall be governed by, and construed and enforced in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York, without regard to the conflict of laws principles that would result in the application of the laws of any other jurisdiction.
