          1.       Definitions.  

                    (a)     Change
of Control.  For purposes of this Agreement only, a “Change of
Control” shall be defined as:

                              (i)     a merger or consolidation in which the Company is not the surviving entity, except for (1) a transaction in which the principal purpose is to change the state of the Company’s incorporation, or (2) a transaction in which the Company’s stockholders immediately prior to such merger or consolidation hold (by virtue of securities received in exchange for their shares in the Company) securities of the surviving entity representing more than fifty percent (50%) of the total voting power of such entity immediately after such transaction;

                              (ii)    the sale, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, unless the Company’s stockholders immediately prior to such sale, transfer or other disposition hold (by virtue of securities received in exchange for their shares in the Company) securities of the purchaser or other transferee representing more than fifty percent (50%) of the total voting power of such entity immediately after such transaction; or 

                              (iii)   any reverse merger in which the Company is the surviving entity but in which the Company’s stockholders immediately prior to such merger do not hold (by virtue of their shares in the Company held immediately prior to such transaction) securities of the Company representing more than fifty percent (50%) of the total voting power of the Company immediately after such transaction.  

                    (b)     Cause. 
For purposes of this Agreement only, the Company shall have “Cause” to
terminate the Executive’s employment hereunder only on the basis of
(i) fraud, (ii) misappropriation, (iii) embezzlement or
(iv) willful engagement by the Executive in misconduct, which misconduct is
demonstrably and materially injurious to the Company and its subsidiaries, taken
as a whole.  No act, or failure to act, on the part of the Executive shall
be considered “willful” unless done, or omitted to be done, by the
Executive without a reasonable and actual belief that the action or omission was
in the best interests of the Company and its subsidiaries.

                    (c)     Good
Reason.  “Good Reason” shall exist if:  (i) there
is an assignment to the Executive of any duties materially inconsistent with or
which constitutes a material change in the Executive’s position, duties,
responsibilities or status with the Company, or a material change in the
Executive’s reporting responsibilities, titles or offices; or removal of
the Executive from or failure to reelect the Executive to any of such positions,
except in connection with the termination of employment for Cause, or due to
disability, retirement, death or termination of employment by the Executive
other than for Good Reason; (ii) there is a reduction by the Company in the
Executive’s annual salary then in effect, other than a reduction similar in
percentage to a reduction generally applicable to similarly situated employees
of the Company; (iii) the Company acts in any way that would adversely
affect the Executive’s participation in or materially reduce the
Executive’s benefits under any benefit plan of the Company in which the
Executive is participating or deprive the Executive of any material fringe
benefit enjoyed by the Executive, except those changes generally affecting
similarly situated employees of the Company; or (iv) the Company reduces
the number of paid vacation days to which the Executive is then
entitled.

                    (d)     Closing
Date.  “Closing Date” shall mean the date of the first
closing of any transactions constituting a Change of Control.

                    (e)     Termination
Date.  “Termination Date” shall mean the date the
Executive’s employment is terminated by the Company other than for Cause or
is terminated by the Executive for Good Reason.  

                    (f)     Company. 
“Company” shall mean Electroglas, Inc., a Delaware corporation, and
its successors or assigns (including without limitation, any entity, entities or

                              (i)     If
the Termination Date occurs after the Executive’s bonus for the last
completed fiscal year has been determined by the Compensation Committee of the
Board of Directors (the “Compensation Committee”) and paid to the
Executive, then the Executive shall receive a bonus in the amount of no less
than:  

	
   
  	
  
X1 + X1(Y/365)
  

                              (ii)    If the Termination Date occurs before the Executive’s bonus for the last completed fiscal year has been determined by the Compensation Committee and paid to the Executive, then the Executive shall receive a bonus in the amount of no less than:  

	
  
 
  	
  
2(X2) + X2(Y/365)
  
	
  
 
  	
  
 
  
	
  
where:
  	
  
 
  
	
   
 	
  
 
  
	
  
 
  	
  
“X1” = the bonus amount paid to the   Executive for the last completed fiscal year;
  
	
  
 
  	
  
 
  
	
   
  	
  
“X2” = the bonus amount paid to the   Executive for the fiscal year prior to the last completed fiscal year; and
  
	
  
 
  	
  
 
  
	
  
 
  	
  
“Y” = the number of days in the current fiscal year   prior to and including the Termination date.
  

                                        The bonus shall be paid in equal monthly payments over a period of twenty-four (24) months after the Termination Date.  Such amount shall be payable to the Executive regardless of the Company’s financial performance, and shall not be conditioned on the Company’s continued satisfaction of any goals or criteria required by any compensation plan;  

                    (c)     Medical and Dental Benefits.  For the period that salary continuation payments are being made, the Company shall either:  (i) continue the Executive’s medical and dental benefits as such benefits are generally offered to the Company’s employees as of the Termination Date, or (ii) reimburse the Executive for COBRA payments made by the Executive to maintain his medical and dental benefits, as applicable under the Company’s insurance policies;

                    (d)     Life Insurance and Car Allowance.  For the period that salary continuation payments are being made, the Company shall continue payment of the Executive’s life insurance premiums and car allowance, if applicable;

                    (e)     Vacation Pay.  The Company shall pay the Executive any accrued but unused vacation time as of the Termination Date;

                    (f)     Stock Options, Performances Shares or Units and Restricted Shares or Units.  Any stock option, performance share or unit, or restricted share or unit shall vest in its entirety and become exercisable or, with respect to such performance share or unit or restricted share or unit, be released from restrictions on transfer and repurchase rights, immediately prior to Termination Date; provided that, at least one (1) year has elapsed between the date of this Agreement and the Termination Date; provided further, however, that any vesting provisions contained in any stock option or similar agreement with the Company that specifically accelerates vesting in the event of a Change in Control shall supersede this subsection (f) in its entirety to the extent more favorable to the Executive; and 

                    (g)     Extension of Stock Option Exercise Term.  All vested stock options held by the Executive as of the Termination Date shall expire six (6) months after the Termination Date.  

          3.     No Employment Agreement, Employment at Will.  Executive and the Company each acknowledge and agree that:  (i) this Agreement does not provide for the terms and conditions of Executive’s employment with the Company prior to any Change of Control and does not require or obligate Executive to provide services to the Company or the Company to continue to employ Executive; and (ii) Executive’s employment with the Company is and remains an employment relationship terminable at will and without advance notice by either Executive or the Company. 

          4.     Release of the Company and Its Affiliates.  Upon a termination of Executive’s employment with the Company following a Change of Control for which Executive is entitled to payments or other benefits pursuant to Section 2 above and subject to full performance by the Company of its obligations hereunder, Executive hereby forever and completely releases and discharges the following (and each of them):  (i) the Company and (ii) any past, present or future agents, attorneys, directors, officers, stockholders, employees, affiliates, predecessors and successors of the Company, of and from any and all claims and demands of every kind and nature, in law, equity or otherwise, known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected, disclosed or undisclosed, including but not limited to all claims and demands of every kind and nature, known or unknown, suspected

Gainesville, FL  32653

Dear Lou,

You have informed me of the resignation of Dick Kelecy as CFO of Perma-Fix and
have expressed your concern as to whether this may trigger an event of default
under the loan agreement. If in fact it does, I would consider that more of a
"technical default" and I would process the necessary approval to have it
waived. Please keep me informed on the results of your search for a replacement
CFO.

I will be out of the office the entire week of March 27th and therefore will
contact you the week of April 3rd when I return.

Should you have any questions, do not hesitate to call.

Sincerely,

/s/ Alex M. Council IV
