by the Executive under this Agreement, the Company shall pay the Executive a
base salary (the "Base Salary") at the rate of two hundred seventy seven
thousand dollars ($277,000) per calendar year.  The Base Salary shall be paid in

     Section 5.  Bonus Compensation.  The Executive shall be paid a performance
bonus pursuant to the criteria set forth on Exhibit A attached hereto, within
thirty (30) days of the Company's receipt of its audited financial statements
for such fiscal year (it being understood that such Bonus shall be based on such

the proper performance of the Executive's duties hereunder.

Company shall provide the Executive with group health and life insurance
protection to the same extent that it makes such protection available to its
other executive employees, which protection shall be equivalent to the

     Section 6.03.  Automobile.  In recognition of the necessity of the use of
an automobile for the efficient and expeditious performance of the Executive's

     Section 6.04.  Reimbursement of Expenses.  The Company shall reimburse the
Executive for all reasonable expenses actually incurred by the Executive in

duties hereunder.  The Executive shall comply with such reasonable limitations
and reporting requirements with respect to such expenses as the Board may
establish from time to time.

     Section 7.  Termination.  This Agreement shall be terminated at the end of
the Term or any Renewal Term, or earlier as follows:

     Section 7.01.  Death.  This Agreement shall terminate upon the death of the
Executive, except that the compensation provided in Section 4 shall continue
through the end of the month in which the Executive's death occurs.

     Section 7.02.  Permanent Disability.  In the event of any physical or
mental disability of the Executive rendering the Executive unable to perform his

to the Executive's ability to return to work in his full capacity, this
Agreement shall terminate automatically.  Any determination of disability shall
be made by the Board in consultation with a qualified physician or physicians
selected by the Board and reasonably acceptable to the Executive.  The failure

                                       2

of the Executive to submit to a reasonable examination by such physician or
physicians shall act as an estoppel to any objection by the Executive to the
determination of disability by the Board.

     Section 7.03.  By the Company For Cause.  The employment of the Executive
may be terminated by the Company for Cause (as defined below) at any time
effective upon written notice to the Executive; provided however that the

     of illness or disability) and such failure or refusal shall have continued
     for a period of ten (10) days following written notice from the Board, it
     being understood that the Company's failure to achieve its business plan or
     projections shall not itself be considered a failure or refusal to perform
     duties;

          (c) the Executive shall have breached any material provision of
     Section 9 or 10 hereof; or

          (d) the Executive shall have committed any fraud, embezzlement,

located; or (iii) any material reduction in any of the benefits described in
Sections 5 or 6 of this Agreement.

                 ---------------------------------

its subsidiaries or affiliates as to which the Executive may have access,
whether conceived or developed by others or by the Executive alone or with

     Section 9.02.  Fiduciary Obligations.  The Executive agrees that
                    ---------------------
Proprietary Information is of critical importance to the Company and a violation

damage the Company's business.  The Executive agrees that he shall keep all
Proprietary Information in a fiduciary capacity for the sole benefit of the
Company.

     Section 9.03.  Non-Use and Non-Disclosure.  The Executive shall not during
                    --------------------------

employees thereof at the time of such disclosure who, in the reasonable judgment
of the Executive, need to know such Proprietary Information or such other
persons to whom the Executive has been specifically instructed to make
disclosure by the Board and in all such cases only to the extent required in the
course of the Executive's service to the Company or (b) use any Proprietary
Information, directly or indirectly, for his own benefit or for the benefit of
any other person or entity.  At the termination of his employment, the Executive
shall deliver to the Company all notes, letters, documents and records which may
contain Proprietary Information which are then in his possession or control and
shall destroy any and all copies and summaries thereof.

     Section 9.04.  Assignment of Inventions.  The Executive agrees to assign

in the Field (as defined below), together with all United States and foreign
rights with respect thereto, and at the Company's expense to execute and deliver
all appropriate patent and copyright applications for securing United States and
foreign patents and copyrights on Inventions in the Field and to perform all
lawful acts, including giving testimony, and to execute and deliver all such
instruments that may be necessary or proper to vest all such Inventions in the
Field and patents and copyrights with respect thereto in the Company, and to
assist the Company in the prosecution or defense of any interference which may
be declared involving any of said patent applications, patents, copyright
applications or copyrights.  For the purposes of this Agreement, the words
"Inventions in the Field" shall include any discovery, process, design,
development, improvement, application, technique, or invention, whether
patentable or copyrightable or not and whether reduced to practice or not,
conceived or made by the Executive, individually or jointly with others (whether
on or off the Company's premises or during or after normal working hours) while
in the employ of the Company, and which was or is directly or indirectly related
to the business of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates, or
which resulted or results from or was suggested by any work performed by any
employee or agent thereof during the Term or any Renewal Term or for one year
after termination of this Agreement for any reason.

                  -------------------------------------------

     Section 10.01.  Acknowledgments.  The Executive agrees that he is being
                     ---------------
employed hereunder in a key management capacity with the Company and that the
Company is engaged in a highly competitive business and that the success of the
Company's business in the marketplace depends upon its goodwill and reputation
for quality and dependability.  The Executive further agrees that reasonable

                                       6
<PAGE>

limits may be placed on his ability to compete against the Company as provided
herein so as to protect and preserve the legitimate business interests and good
will of the Company.

     Section 10.02.  General Restrictions.
                     --------------------

          (a) During the Term and any Renewal Term and for the Non-Competition
Period (as defined below), the Executive will not (anywhere in the world where
the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates then conducts business)
engage or participate in, directly or indirectly, as principal, agent, employee,
employer, consultant, investor or partner, or assist in the management of, or
own any stock or any other ownership interest in, any business which is
Competitive with the Company (as defined below); provided that the ownership of
not more than 5% of the outstanding securities of any class listed on an
exchange or regularly traded in the over-the-counter market shall not constitute
a violation of this Section 10.02.  For purposes of this Agreement, a business
shall be considered "Competitive with the Company" only if it involves the
manufacturing, sale or service of industrial and commercial scales.

          (b) For purposes of this Agreement, the "Non-Competition Period" shall
mean the longer of (i) the Term and (ii) a period of twelve (12) consecutive
months after the Executive's employment terminates.

                     ----------------------------------

          (a) During the Term, any Renewal Term and the Non-Solicitation Period
(as defined below), the Executive will not solicit, or attempt to solicit, any
officer, director, consultant, executive or employee of the Company or any of
its subsidiaries or affiliates to leave his or her engagement with the Company
or such subsidiary or affiliate nor will he call upon, solicit, divert or
attempt to solicit or divert from the Company or any of its affiliates or
subsidiaries any of their customers or suppliers, or potential customers or
suppliers, of whose names he was aware during the term of his employment with
the Company; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 10.03 shall be
deemed to prohibit the Executive from calling upon or soliciting a customer or
supplier during the Non-Solicitation Period if such action relates solely to a
business which is not Competitive with the Company; and provided, further,
however, that nothing in this Section 10.03 shall be deemed to prohibit the
Executive (i) from soliciting or hiring any employee of the Company or any of
its subsidiaries or affiliates, if such employee is a member of the Executive's
immediate family or (ii) from placing advertisements in newspapers or other
media of general circulation advertising employment opportunities.

          (b) For purposes of this Agreement, the "Non-Solicitation Period"
shall mean the longer of (i) the Term and (ii) a period of twelve (12)
consecutive months after the Executive's employment terminates.

     Section 10.04.  THE EXECUTIVE REPRESENTS AND WARRANTS THAT THE KNOWLEDGE,
SKILLS AND ABILITIES HE POSSESSES AT THE TIME OF COMMENCEMENT OF EMPLOYMENT
HEREUNDER ARE SUFFICIENT TO PERMIT HIM, IN THE EVENT OF TERMINATION OF HIS
EMPLOYMENT HEREUNDER, TO EARN A LIVELIHOOD SATISFACTORY TO HIMSELF WITHOUT

                                       7
<PAGE>

VIOLATING ANY PROVISION OF SECTION 9 OR 10 HEREOF, FOR EXAMPLE, BY USING SUCH
KNOWLEDGE, SKILLS AND ABILITIES, OR SOME OF THEM, IN THE SERVICE OF A NON-
COMPETITOR.  THE EXECUTIVE FURTHER REPRESENTS AND WARRANTS THAT HIS ABILITY SO
TO EARN A LIVELIHOOD SATISFACTORY TO HIMSELF DOES NOT DEPEND UPON HIS ABILITY TO
OBTAIN COMPENSATION FOR HIS     SERVICES AT, OR IN EXCESS OF, THE LEVEL AT WHICH
HE IS COMPENSATED BY THE COMPANY.

     Section 11.  Remedies.  It is specifically understood and agreed that any
                  --------
breach of the provisions of Section 9 or 10 of this Agreement is likely to
result in irreparable injury to the Company and that the remedy at law alone
will be an inadequate remedy for such breach, and that in addition to any other
remedy it may have, the Company shall be entitled to enforce the specific
performance of this Agreement by the Executive and to seek both temporary and
permanent injunctive relief (to the extent permitted by law) without the
necessity of proving actual damages.

     Section 12.  Severable Provisions.  The provisions of this Agreement are
                  --------------------
severable and the invalidity of any one or more provisions shall not affect the
validity of any other provision.  In the event that a court of competent
jurisdiction shall determine that any provision of this Agreement or the
application thereof is unenforceable in whole or in part because of the duration
or scope thereof, the parties hereto agree that said court in making such
determination shall have the power to reduce the duration and scope of such
provision to the extent necessary to make it enforceable, and that the Agreement
in its reduced form shall be valid and enforceable to the full extent permitted
by law.

     Section 13.  Notices.  All notices hereunder, to be effective, shall be in

                                     BONUS

     The Executive's Bonus shall be based on the Company's performance during a
fiscal year (as evidenced by the Company's audited financial statements for such
fiscal year).  If the Company achieves 100% of its annual targets as set forth
in the table below ("Targets"), the Executive shall be entitled to a bonus equal
to 30% of his annual salary.  If the Company achieves 120% of its Targets, the
Executive shall be entitled to a bonus equal to 60% of his annual salary.  If
the Company achieves between 100% and 120% of its Targets, the Executive's bonus
shall be calculated based on straight-line interpolation of the foregoing
amounts.

</TABLE>

     For purposes of this Exhibit, the term "EBITDA" shall mean, for any year,
the consolidated net earnings of Weigh-Tronix LLC (the "LLC") and its
subsidiaries for such period, plus (a) all amounts deducted therefrom on account
of (i) taxes, (ii) interest charges, (iii) depreciation charges and (iv)
amortization charges; (b) management fees paid to Berkshire Investors LLC or its
affiliates during such period; (c) non-cash charges or income for such period
attributable to income and expenses incurred as a result of an acceleration of
vesting of any option; (d) one-time non-recurring costs and expenses which are
attributable to any acquisition, including the acquisition of the Company; and
(e) any costs attributable to the write-up of assets or goodwill resulting from
purchase accounting in connection with any acquisition, including that of the
Company, all as determined in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles.  In addition, EBITDA shall be calculated without regard to any
income or expense associated with the grant, exercise, vesting, issuance or, for
accounting purposes only, the revaluation of the assets underlying any options
or warrants.

     To the extent that the LLC makes acquisitions which require additional
equity investments, or additional debt investments with so-called "equity
kickers", the foregoing EBITDA targets will be revised to reflect the revised
capital structure.  Upon the occurrence of extraordinary corporate events
(including the sale of a portion of the business or the license of technology),
the EBITDA targets above will be reset as determined by the Board of Directors.

AlphaNet
shall submit an invoice to EDS to receive payment under this Agreement no sooner
than 30 days after Goldman Sachs give notice to AlphaNet to terminate the
services agreement between AlphaNet and Goldman Sachs. EDS shall pay
AlphaNet’s invoice in full within thirty (30) days after receipt of same by
EDS. Periodic payments, if any, due to AlphaNet pursuant to this Agreement shall
be invoiced at the beginning of the period to which they apply. Payment for any

(a)
At EDS’ written request, AlphaNet shall provide Employee name, position
held, current salary and any other information reasonably requested by EDS and
shall make such Employee available for interview by EDS. 

	 	
(b)
During the 30 days after Goldman Sachs gives notice to AlphaNet to terminate the
services agreement between AlphaNet and Goldman Sachs (hereinafter, the
“Effective Date”), unless otherwise agreed by EDS and AlphaNet,
AlphaNet shall not re-assign, re-deploy, offer future assignments or in any
other way interfere or compete with EDS’ right to hire Employees. AlphaNet,
however, may terminate an Employee for cause.

AlphaNet shall be free to reassign, redeploy or terminate for any reason
Employees not hired by EDS by the end of the thirty (30) days after the
Effective Date.

6.     TAXES.

	 	
(a)
Unless EDS provides evidence of exemption satisfactory to AlphaNet, EDS shall
pay or reimburse AlphaNet, where EDS is liable under applicable tax statute,
amounts equal to taxes which are imposed upon EDS’ recruitment of Employees
including federal excise taxes, or sales or use taxes; provided, however, EDS

any applicable tax and shall make available to EDS, and any taxing authority,

attributable to or resulting from the payment process under this Agreement, and
the filing of any tax returns or the contesting of any tax.

	 	
EDS
shall not be obligated to pay or reimburse AlphaNet for additions to taxes,
penalties, interest, fees, or other expenses or costs, if any, incurred by EDS
solely as a result of, or attributable to, (i) AlphaNet’s failure to verify
taxability of a purchase, (ii) AlphaNet’s failure to correctly calculate or
remit taxes in a timely manner, or (iii) AlphaNet’s negligence, misconduct
or failure to file properly any required returns or reports, or other required
documents.

	 	
(c)
Upon written notification by EDS and subsequent verification by AlphaNet,
AlphaNet shall reimburse or credit, as applicable, EDS in a timely manner, for
any and all taxes erroneously paid by EDS.

satisfactory resale, direct pay, or other exemption certificates, as applicable.
AlphaNet agrees to separately identify on the invoice the taxable and
non-taxable purchases, the types of tax and the taxing authorities.

withhold from any sum payable hereunder, then, subject to verification by
AlphaNet of the legitimacy of such deduction or withholding, the sum payable by
EDS or such Affiliate of EDS upon which the deduction is based shall be paid to
AlphaNet net of such deduction or withholding. EDS or such Affiliate of EDS
shall pay the applicable tax authorities any such required deduction or
withholding.

representatives causes or results in (i) damage to or destruction of tangible
property of the other party or third parties, and/or (ii) death or injury to
persons including, but not limited to, employees or invitees of either party,
then such party shall indemnify, defend, and hold the other party harmless from
and against any and all claims, actions, damages, demands, liabilities, costs,
and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, resulting

PARTY SHALL BE LIABLE TO THE OTHER PURSUANT TO THIS AGREEMENT FOR ANY AMOUNTS

SHALL NOT LIMIT THE  INDEMNIFICATION, DEFENSE AND HOLD HARMLESS
OBLIGATIONS SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT.

10.     
TERMINATION.

	 	
EDS
may terminate a Purchase Order, or any portion thereof, for any reason without
penalty upon written notice to AlphaNet; provided, however, that upon such
termination EDS will pay for Employees hired from AlphaNet to the date of
termination; and provided, further, that the operation of this paragraph shall
not serve to reduce the minimum payment owing by EDS to AlphaNet pursuant to the
provisions of Paragraph 3 hereof.

11.

party acknowledges that in the course of performance of its obligations pursuant
to this Agreement, it may obtain confidential and/or proprietary information of

affiliates or customers, whether before or after the Effective Date, such
recipient party shall use the same means it uses to protect its own confidential
and proprietary information, but in any event not less than reasonable means to
prevent the disclosure and to protect the confidentiality of the Confidential
Information. Further, the recipient party shall only use the Confidential
Information for purposes of this Agreement, and shall not disclose the

party without an obligation of confidentiality, (ii) publicly known or becomes
publicly known through no unauthorized act of the recipient party, (iii)
rightfully received from a third party without obligation of confidentiality,

restrictions by the owner of the Confidential Information to a third party
(other than an affiliate or customer of the party owning the Confidential
Information), (vi) approved by the party owning the Confidential Information, in
writing, for disclosure, or (vii) required to be disclosed pursuant to a
requirement of a governmental agency or law so long as the recipient party
provides the other party with timely prior written notice of such requirement.

found to be illegal, unenforceable, or void, then both parties shall be relieved

EXHIBIT A:

EDS BUSINESS
PRACTICES

        EDS' suppliers have played a key role in our continuous  growth and success.  We sincerely  appreciate your support.  In order
to avoid any conflict of interest between our suppliers and EDS employees and to keep business  relationships on a professional  basis,
EDS has established and briefed its employees on the following business  practices.  Please review these business  practices  carefully
and give a copy of this Exhibit to any of your associates who have a need to know.

	 	 	1.	EDS expects its suppliers to provide a
quality product or service for which they will be fairly paid.

	 	 	2.	In selecting suppliers,
 EDS will test the market to assure quality of service and fairness of price.

	 	 	3.	
No EDS employee is to ask for anything of value from a supplier. Gifts from a
supplier such as tickets to athletic events, concerts or the theater, personal
travel, or any type of personal item are discouraged by our business practices.

	 	 	4.	
If any EDS employee is offered or accepts an item of value from a supplier, the
employee is to report it to the appropriate EDS management.

	 	 	5.	
If any EDS employee engages in any type of unethical behavior such as requesting
anything of value from a supplier, the supplier is requested to report the
incident to the Director of Purchasing or the General Counsel of EDS.

	 	 	6.	
Occasional meals during visits to a supplier’s facilities or a
customer’s location during which a supplier incurs normal and reasonable
marketing expenses are acceptable. The EDS employee is required to report such
meal expenses to their management.

	 	 	EDS appreciates your cooperation in complying
 with these business practices.
