                              SECOND AMENDMENT
                              ----------------

         This Amendment ("Amendment") has been entered into as of the 1st
day of February, 2004, by and between Angelica Corporation, a Missouri
Corporation ("Angelica") and Paul R. Anderegg, an individual ("Employee").

         WHEREAS, Angelica currently employs Employee as Vice President of
Angelica and President of Angelica's Textile Services Business Segment
pursuant to that certain Employment Agreement, dated the 1st day of
February, 2003, as previously amended, (the "Agreement"); and

         WHEREAS, Angelica and Employee wish to continue the employment
relationship between them and to further amend the Agreement as set forth in
this Amendment.

         NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises herein
contained, the parties hereto agree to amend the Agreement as follows:

         1.   Section 2.1 of the Agreement is hereby amended to read as
              follows:

                  2.1 INITIAL TERM OF AGREEMENT; RENEWAL TERMS. The initial
                  Term of this Agreement shall be for two years commencing
                  on the Effective Date, subject to automatic renewal for
                  one or more additional Terms of one year each commencing
                  immediately upon the end of the initial Term or the
                  then-current renewal Term, as the case may be, unless
                  either party to this Agreement gives a Notice of
                  Non-Renewal to the other party not later than 90 days
                  prior to the end of the initial Term or the then-current
                  renewal Term, as the case may be. In the event that such a
                  Notice of Non-Renewal is given as set forth in this
                  Section 2.1, the Date of Termination will be the last day
                  of the initial Term or the then-current Term, as the case
                  may be.

         2.   Except as otherwise expressly amended by this Amendment, all
              other terms, conditions and covenants of the Agreement, as
              previously amended, shall remain unchanged and in full force
              and effect.

         IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Employee and Angelica, pursuant to the
authorization from its Board, have caused this Amendment to be executed in
its name on its behalf, all as of the day and year first above written.
