Term and Positions. (a) Subject to the provisions for the termination of this Agreement as provided for herein, the term of this Employment Agreement shall commence on the date hereof and shall continue through December 31, 2000 (the "Base Term") and shall automatically be extended for an additional one year (each a "Renewal Year") at the end of each full calendar year for which this Employment Agreement remains in effect unless on or before November 30 of each calendar year, either party gives to the other party written notice of termination of this Employment Agreement, in which case this Employment Agreement shall terminate upon the completion of the then applicable employment period including any previous Renewal Years.

The Executive shall be entitled to the full protection of applicable indemnification provisions of the certificate of incorporation and bylaws of the Company, as the same may be amended from time to time, for his service as a director, officer and employee of the Company. (c) If: (i) the Company materially changes the Executive's duties and responsibilities as set forth in Paragraph 1(b) or 2(b) without his consent (including, without limitation, by violating any of the provisions of clause (i), (ii), (iii) or (iv) of Paragraph 2 (b)); (ii) the Executive's place of employment or the principal executive offices of the Company are moved to a location more than fifty (50) miles from the geographical center of Ann Arbor, Michigan; (iii) there occurs a material breach by the Company of any of its obligations under this Employment Agreement (other than those specified in this Section 2(c)) that has not -2- 4 been cured in all material respects within ten (10) days after the Executive gives notice thereof to the Company; (iv) there occurs a "change in control" (as hereinafter defined) of the Company; or (v) the Board or any nominating committee thereof or committee performing a Board nomination function fails to nominate the Executive for election to the Board in connection with any shareholders' meeting to be held or action to be taken for the election of directors; then the Executive shall have the right to terminate his employment with the Company, but such termination shall not be considered a voluntary resignation or termination of such employment or of this Employment Agreement by the Executive but rather a discharge of the Executive by the Company without "cause" (as defined in Paragraph 5(a)(ii)). (d) The Executive shall be considered not to have consented to any written proposal calling for a material change in his duties and responsibilities unless he shall give written notice of his consent thereto to the Board within fifteen (15) days after receipt of such written proposal. If the Executive shall not have given such consent, the Company shall have the opportunity to withdraw such proposed material change by written notice to the Executive given within ten (10) days after the end of said fifteen (15) day period.

(a) The Company shall pay to the Executive a base salary payable in accordance with the Company's usual pay practices (and in any event no less frequently than monthly) at the rate of One Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($150,000) per annum, to be increased (but not decreased) from time to time (based upon the performance of the Company and the Executive) in a manner consistent with the compensation of Chief Executive Officers of publicly-held real estate investment trusts. (b) The Company shall pay to the Executive bonus compensation for each calendar year of the Company, not later than sixty (60) days following the end of each year or the termination of his employment, as the case may be, prorated on a per diem basis for partial calendar years, and determined and calculated in a manner set forth on Exhibit A attached hereto. (c) The Company shall grant to the Executive, pursuant to the Company's Long-Term Incentive Plan, options to acquire 400,000 shares of the Company's $.01 par value common stock (the "Common Stock") for a period of ten years from the date of the initial public offering of the Common Stock at a price equal to the initial public offering price of the Common Stock. The options shall vest (at which time they shall become exerciseable) prorata on each of the first three anniversaries of the execution of the Employment Agreement. (d) The Company shall provide to the Executive and his family all the medical, dental, and all other group insurance benefits which the Company provides generally to employees of the Company during active employment. In the event of disability or death of the Executive, these benefits shall be continued by the Company for life for the Executive and his spouse. (e) The Executive shall participate in all retirement and other benefit plans of the Company generally available from time to time to employees of the Company and for which the Executive qualifies under their terms (and nothing in this Employment Agreement shall or shall be considered to in any way affect the Executive's rights and benefits thereunder except as expressly provided herein). (f) The Executive shall be entitled to such periods of vacation and sick leave allowance each year as are determined by the Executive in his reasonable and good faith discretion, which in any event shall be not less than as provided generally under the Company's vacation and sick leave policy for executive officers. (g) The Executive shall be entitled to participate in any option or other employee benefit compensation plan that is generally available to senior executive officers, as distinguished -4- 6 from general management, of the Company. The Executive's participation in and benefits under any such plan shall be on the terms and subject to the conditions specified in the governing document of that plan. (h) Beginning on the day after the cessation of the Executive's employment with the Company, except in the case of termination of the Executive's employment for cause under Paragraph 5, and continuing until the Executive's death or the date, if ever, on which the Executive begins full-time employment with another employer, the Company shall provide to the Executive, at no cost to the Executive, office space at a location (other than the executive offices of the Company) suitable to the Executive's status as the former Chief Executive Officer of the Company, a full-time secretary and other customary office support functions. (i) The Company shall reimburse the Executive or provide him with an expense allowance during the term of this Employment Agreement for travel, entertainment and other expenses reasonably and necessarily incurred by the Executive in connection with the Company's business. The Executive shall furnish such documentation with respect to reimbursements to be made hereunder as the Company shall reasonably request. 4. Payment in the Event of Death or Permanent Disability. (a) The Company shall arrange for certain life insurance benefits to be available to the Executive and his family as provided in this paragraph pursuant to a Split-Dollar Agreement between the Company and the Executive (or his assigns), in substantially the form of EXHIBIT B attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference. The life insurance benefit to be provided by the Company to the Executive and his family under the Split-Dollar Agreement shall be provided under two policies. One policy shall be a joint and survivor policy in the amount of One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) insuring the life of the Executive and his spouse. The other policy shall insure the Executive's life and shall be in an amount equal to the greater of (i) One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) or (ii) five (5) times the Executive's annual cash compensation paid or payable by the Company (including the base salary provided under Paragraph 3(a) of this Agreement and the bonus provided under Paragraph 3(b) of this Agreement). Each year, the amount of the life insurance benefit shall be reviewed and revised in accordance with the prior years' cash compensation paid and accrued for the benefit of the Executive, as soon as the amount of the prior year's earned cash compensation, including all cash bonuses, can be calculated. (b) In the event of the Executive's "permanent disability" (as hereinafter defined) during the term of this Employment Agreement, for a period of fifteen (15) years the Company shall pay to the Executive an annual amount equal to .80 times the Executive's then effective per annum rate of salary, as determined under Paragraph -5- 7 3(a), plus a pro rata portion of the bonus applicable to the fiscal year in which such permanent disability occurs, as such bonus is determined under Paragraph 3(b). After such fifteen (15) year period and for each year thereafter until the Executive attains age sixty-five (65), the Company shall pay to the Executive a disability benefit in an amount equal to the greater of (i) sixty-five percent (65%) of the Executive's base compensation during the year in which the disability occurred, or (ii) fifty percent (50%) of the Executive's average annual total cash compensation for the three (3) years immediately before the year in which the disability occurred. The Company, to the extent possible, shall insure such disability benefits through an insurance company. Such coverage shall contain a benefit for total, as well as partial and residual, disabilities. The Company shall review and revise the amount of coverage not less than annually in accordance with the prior year's total cash compensation as soon as the amount of cash compensation, including all cash bonuses, can be calculated. In the event of, and upon the Executive's permanent disability, all unvested options shall vest immediately and become fully exerciseable. (c) Except as otherwise provided in Paragraphs 3(e), 3(h) (in the event of permanent disability only), 4(a), and 4(b), in the event of the Executive's death or permanent disability, the Executive's employment hereunder shall terminate and the Executive shall be entitled to no further compensation or other benefits under this Employment Agreement, except as to that portion of any unpaid salary and other benefits accrued and earned by him hereunder, up to and including the date of such death or permanent disability, as the case may be. (d) For purposes of this Employment Agreement, the Executive's "permanent disability" shall be deemed to have occurred after one hundred twenty (120) days in the aggregate during any consecutive twelve (12) month period, or after ninety (90) consecutive days, during which one hundred twenty (120) or ninety (90) days, as the case may be, the Executive, by reason of his physical or mental disability or illness, shall have been unable to discharge his duties under this Employment Agreement. The date of permanent disability shall be such one hundred twentieth (120th) or ninetieth (90th) day, as the case may be. In the event either the Company or the Executive, after receipt of notice of the Executive's permanent disability from the other, dispute that the Executive's permanent disability shall have occurred, the Executive shall promptly submit to a physical examination by the chief of medicine of any major accredited hospital in the Ann Arbor, Michigan, area and, unless such physician shall issue his written statement to the effect that in his opinion, based on his diagnosis, the Executive is capable of resuming his employment and devoting his full time and energy to discharging his duties within thirty (30) days after the date of such statement, such permanent disability shall be deemed to have occurred. 5. Termination. (a) The employment of the Executive under this Employment -6- 8 Agreement, and the terms hereof, may be terminated by the Company: (i) on the death or permanent disability (as defined in Section 4(d)) of the Executive, (ii) for cause at any time by action of the Board. For purposes hereof, the term "cause" shall mean: (A) The Executive's fraud, commission of a felony or of an act or series of acts which result in material injury to the business reputation of the Company, commission of an act or series of repeated acts of dishonesty which are materially inimical to the best interests of the Company, or the Executive's willful and repeated failure to perform his lawful duties under this Employment Agreement, which failure has not been cured within fifteen (15) days after the Company gives notice thereof to the Executive; or (B) The Executive's material breach of any material provision of this Employment Agreement, which breach has not been cured in all substantial respects within ten (10) days after the Company gives notice thereof to the Executive; or (iii) other than for cause at any time by action of the Board, subject to the operation of Paragraph 5(c). The exercise by the Company of its rights of termination under this Paragraph 5 shall be the Company's sole remedy in the event of the occurrence of an event as a result of which such right to terminate arises. Upon any termination of this Employment Agreement, the Executive shall be deemed to have resigned from all offices held by the Executive in the Company. (b) In the event of a termination claimed by the Company to be for "cause" pursuant to Paragraph 5(a)(ii), the Executive shall have the right to have the justification for said termination determined by arbitration in Detroit, Michigan. In order to exercise such right, the Executive shall serve on the Company within thirty (30) days after termination a written request for arbitration. The Company immediately shall request the appointment of an arbitrator by the American Arbitration Association and thereafter the question of "cause" shall be determined under the rules of the American Arbitration Association, and the decision of the arbitrator shall be final and binding on both parties. The parties shall use all reasonable efforts to facilitate and expedite the arbitration and shall act to cause the arbitration to be completed as promptly as possible. During the pendency of the arbitration, the Executive shall continue to receive all compensation and benefits to which he is entitled hereunder, and if at any time during the pendency of such arbitration the Company -7- 9 fails to pay and provide all compensation and benefits to the Executive in a timely manner, the Company shall be deemed to have automatically waived whatever rights it then may have had to terminate the Executive's employment for cause. If the arbitrator determines that the Executive's termination was effected for "cause," the Executive shall reimburse the Company for all compensation and benefits received by him during the pendency of the arbitration to which he is not entitled in accordance with the first sentence of Paragraph 5(c). Expenses of the arbitration shall be borne equally by the parties. (c) In the event of termination for any of the reasons set forth in subparagraph (a)(i) or (a)(ii) of this Paragraph 5, except as otherwise provided in Paragraphs 3(e), 3(i) (in the case of permanent disability only), 4(a), and 4(b), the Executive shall be entitled to no further compensation or other benefits under this Employment Agreement, except as to that portion of any unpaid salary and other benefits accrued and earned by him hereunder up to and including the effective date of such termination and all unvested options shall be forfeited. If the Company terminates the Executive's employment other than pursuant to subparagraph 5(a)(i) or 5(a)(ii) or the Executive terminates his employment pursuant to subparagraph 2(c), all of the compensation and benefits payable to the Executive pursuant to this Employment Agreement shall be paid to the Executive for the remainder of the term of this Employment Agreement (as that term is defined in subparagraph 2(a)), and all option granted to the Executive shall vest immediately and become fully exerciseable. 6. Tax Adjustment Payments. If all or any portion of the amounts payable to the Executive under this Employment Agreement (together with all other payments of cash or property, whether pursuant to this Employment Agreement or otherwise, including, without limitation, the issuance of common stock of the Company, or the granting, exercise or termination of options therefor) constitutes "excess parachute payments" within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code that are subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code (or any similar tax or assessment), the amounts payable hereunder shall be increased to the extent necessary to place the Executive in the same after-tax position as he would have been in had no such tax assessment been imposed on any such payment paid or payable to the Executive under this Employment Agreement or any other payment that the Executive may receive in connection therewith. The determination of the amount of any such tax or assessment and the incremental payment required hereby in connection therewith shall be made by the accounting firm employed by the Executive within thirty (30) calendar days after such payment and said incremental payment shall be made within five (5) calendar days after determination has been made. If, after the date upon which the payment required by this Paragraph 6 has been made, it is determined (pursuant to final regulations or published rulings of the Internal Revenue Service, final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction, Internal Revenue Service audit assessment, or otherwise) that the amount of excise or other similar taxes or assessments payable by the Executive is greater -8- 10 than the amount initially so determined, then the Company shall pay the Executive an amount equal to the sum of: (i) such additional excise or other taxes, PLUS (ii) any interest, fines and penalties resulting from such underpayment, PLUS (iii) an amount necessary to reimburse the Executive for any income, excise or other tax assessment payable by the Executive with respect to the amounts specified in (i) and (ii) above, and the reimbursement provided by this clause (iii), in the manner described above in this Paragraph 6. Payment thereof shall be made within five (5) calendar days after the date upon which such subsequent determination is made. 7. Representations and Warranties of the Company.

(f) The failure of either party to enforce any provision or provisions of this Employment Agreement shall not in any way be construed as a waiver of any such provision or provisions as to any future violations thereof, or prevent that party thereafter from enforcing each and every other provision of this Employment Agreement. The rights granted the parties herein are cumulative and the waiver of any single remedy shall not constitute a waiver of such party's right to assert all other legal remedies available to it under the circumstances. (g) This Employment Agreement supersedes all prior agreements and understandings between the parties and may not be modified or terminated orally. No modification, termination or attempted waiver shall be valid unless in writing and signed by the party against whom the same is sought to be enforced.

BEACH -11- 13 EXHIBIT A BONUS CALCULATION The amount of the bonus to be paid by the Company to the Executive under Paragraph 3(b) of the Employment Agreement shall be based on the increase in the "funds from operations per share" of the Company from year to year. The bonus for calendar 1996 under this Agreement shall be based on the increase from the Company's pro forma 1995 "funds from operations per share" to the Company's 1996 "funds from operations per share." Each year thereafter, the "funds from operations per share" for the current year shall be compared to the "funds from operations per share" for the immediately preceding year. The amount of the "funds from operations per share" shall be appropriately adjusted in connection with share dividends, share splits and other changes in the Company's capitalization and shall be determined each year by the Company's Compensation Committee in conjunction with such accountants or other experts as may be appropriate. The amount of the bonus each year shall be calculated as follows: GROWTH FROM PRIOR YEAR'S AMOUNT OF BONUS AS "FUNDS FROM OPERATIONS PER SHARE" PERCENTAGE OF BASE SALARY Sa Zero to less than 5% 10% 5% to less than 10% 25% 10% to less than 15% 50% 15% to less than 20% 75% 20% or higher 100% 14 EXHIBIT B [SPLIT-DOLLAR AGREEMENT] METROPOLITAN LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY ONE MADISON AVENUE, NEW YORK, NEW YORK 10010 LIFE INSURANCE SALES ILLUSTRATION SURVIVORSHIP WHOLE LIFE (METLIFE ESTATE SAVER) For Client: Client: Proposed Policy: Survivorship Whole Life (Form # 2J-90(96)) Base Policy provides Guaranteed Level Death Benefit payable only at second death.

The primary purpose of this policy is to provide for estate liquidity. If you apply for this life insurance policy, MetLife will determine your eligibility for coverage and premiums based on your actual risk classifications and issue ages. You should compare the specifications shown above to those on page 3 of any policy you may receive. If different, your MetLife representative will explain any differences and provide you with a revised illustration. WHAT IS GUARANTEED The Contract Premium (Base Policy premium and all riders, except First-to-Die Rider if any) shown in the illustration is guaranteed and can not be increased by MetLife. MetLife also guarantees that the Death Benefit and the Cash Value will never be less than the amount shown under the "Guaranteed" column headings as long as the policyowner pays the required Contract Premiums, when due, and does not borrow or surrender any Guaranteed Cash Value. THE GUARANTEED CASH VALUE AND THE GUARANTEED DEATH BENEFIT DO NOT REFLECT REDUCTIONS THAT WOULD RESULT FROM ANY POLICY LOANS FROM ANY POLICY LOANS OR SURRENDERS. 15 METROPOLITAN LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY ONE MADISON AVENUE, NEW YORK, NEW YORK 10010 LIFE INSURANCE SALES ILLUSTRATION SURVIVORSHIP WHOLE LIFE (METLIFE ESTATE SAVER) WHAT IS NON-GUARANTEED Amounts shown under the "Non-Guaranteed" columns reflect dividends. Dividends -- WHICH CAN NOT BE GUARANTEED, PREDICTED, OR EVEN ESTIMATED -- may be used to increase your Death Benefit and/or Cash Value, used to reduce your Premium Outlay, taken in cash, or applied under certain combinations of these uses. This illustration is based on the 1996 dividend scale. Since dividends will vary as changes occur MetLife's investment earnings (interest), claims experience, and expenses, your actual Non-Guaranteed Cash Value, Death Benefit, and Premium Outlay may differ (more or less) from what is shown in the illustration. In addition, the actual dividend option you choose and the extent to which you borrow or surrender your policy's cash value will also cause your Non-Guaranteed Cash Value and Death Benefit, as well as your Premium Outlay to be more or less than what is shown in the illustration. The purpose in showing the "Non-Guaranteed" columns is to assist you in understanding how the policy works, NOT how it will perform. ACCELERATED PAYMENT ARRANGEMENT -- Dividends can also be used to reduce the number of years premium payments must be made in cash as shown in the Premium Outlay column. Additions Rider Cash Value if any. Since dividends are NON-GUARANTEED, the actual number of years you will have to pay the Contract Premium which continues to be required for 55 years, in cash, may differ from what is shown in this illustration. If dividends are reduced, some additional out-of-pocket cash outlays may be required by you even after cash outlays have been discontinued under the Accelerated Payment Arrangement. 16 The following table demonstrated how dividends may affect policy values.

METROPOLITAN LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY ONE MADISON AVENUE, NEW YORK, NY 10010-3690 95121H1 (EXP 1296) MLIC-LD 24 THE EXPLANATORY NOTES STANDARD LEDGER Premium Outlay -- Shows the results if the January 1996 dividend scale continues without change. Dividends are not guaranteed and may increase or decrease in the future. If the future dividends decrease, it is possible that dividends and any Paid-Up Additions Rider Cash Value will not be sufficient in some future years to fund the full Contract Premium, and some additional out-of-pocket cash outlay will be required. The amount of any additional cash outlay will depend on the level of coverage to remain in force. This column also reflects any cash surrenders and/or loans. Guaranteed Cash Value - The total as of the end of the policy year of the Guaranteed Cash Value of the base policy, plus the Guaranteed Cash Value of the Supplemental Insurance Benefit, if any (calculated using guaranteed maximum term rates and no dividends), plus the Paid-Up Additions Rider Guaranteed Cash Value, if any. All value assume no dividends are paid, no loans or cash surrenders are made, and all Contract Premiums have been paid, when due, through that year. Guaranteed Death Benefit - The total of the Face Amount of insurance under the base policy, any guaranteed coverage under Supplemental Insurance Benefit coverage (calculated using guaranteed maximum term rates and no dividends), any Four Year Term Insurance Rider coverage, and any Guaranteed Paid-Up Additions Rider Death Benefit. It does not include the Death Benefit of any First-to-Die Rider. Non-Guaranteed Cash Value- The total as of the end of the year of the Guaranteed Cash Value of the base policy, plus the Non-Guaranteed Paid-Up Additions Rider Cash Value, if any, plus the Cash Value of Paid- Up Insurance purchased by dividends and under the Supplemental Insurance Benefit, if any, plus accumulated dividends, if any, plus the end of year dividend, if any, minus any outstanding loans and loan interest due. This column reflects any cash surrenders shown. Non-Guaranteed Additional Insurance - Includes the Death Benefit of Paid-Up Additional Insurance purchase by dividends and under the Supplemental Insurance Benefit, if any. It does not include any values under the Paid-Up Additions Rider. Non-Guaranteed Death Benefit - Includes the Face Amount of insurance under the base policy, the Death Benefit of Paid-Up Additional Insurance purchased by dividends, if any, plus the accumulated dividends, if any, the Death Benefit of the Paid-Up Additions Rider, if any, the Death Benefit of the Supplemental Insurance Benefit, if any, the Death Benefit of the Four Year Term Rider Insurance, if any, minus any outstanding loan and loan interest due. It does not include the Death Benefit of the First-to-Die Rider, if any. This column reflects any cash surrenders shown. Amount Surrendered - Includes any amounts surrendered from any dividend balances and/or Paid-Up Rider values. Dividend Information - Dividends, which are based on the January 1996 scale, cannot be guaranteed, and are likely to be changed by MetLife over time. As a result, your policy's Premium Outlay and non- guaranteed values and benefits are likely to be more or less favorable than those illustrated. However, your Premium Outlay will not exceed the required Contract Premium (unless you increase the SIB premium or repay any loan), and your values and benefits will not be less than the amounts shown in the guaranteed values columns (except for any surrenders and loans). Tax Note - The inclusion of the Paid-UP Additions Rider, the Four Year Term Rider, or the First-to-Die Rider may cause this policy to be considered a modified endowment contract (MEC) for federal income tax purposes. If so, 25 amounts you receive, including loans proceeds, will be subject to federal income tax to the extent of any gain in your policy. Taxable amounts are also generally subject to a 10 percent additional tax unless you are at least age 59 1/2 when such amounts are received.

METROPOLITAN LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY ONE MADISON AVENUE, NEW YORK, NY 10010-3690 951211HI (EXP 1296) MLIO-LD 26 Interest Adjusted Indexes - These indexes provide a means for evaluating the comparative cost of the policy under stated assumptions. They can be useful in comparing similar plans of insurance, a lower index being better than a higher one. These indexes reflect the time value of money. Indexes are approximate because they involve assumptions, including the rate of interest used, the dividends being paid in cash and the continuation of current dividend scales. Indexes apply to the basic policy only. They exclude the Supplemental Insurance Benefit, if any, as well as any optional riders such as disability waiver. Interest adjusted indexes based on a 5.00% interest rate for the basic policy: END OF END OF 10 YRS 20 YRS LIFE INSURANCE NET PAYMENT COST INDEX 8.53 6.82 LIFE INSURANCE SURRENDER COST INDEX 1.03 1.34 EQUIVALENT LEVEL ANNUAL DIVIDEND 286 4.57 METROPOLITAN LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY ONE MADISON AVENUE, NEW YORK, NY 10010-3690 951211HI (EXP 1296) MLIC-LD 27 After premiums for your policy have been paid for a number of years, the Accelerated Payment arrangement allows you to choose to pay future premiums, as they fall due, through the use of accumulated dividends, and Paid-Up Additions Rider cash value, if any. When you wish to start this procedure, ask your Metropolitan Life Sales Representative to confirm that the dividends credited to your policy and the Paid-Up Additions Rider cash value, if any, together with future dividends based on the scale then in effect, are sufficient to accomplish this objective. If values are sufficient, the procedure will make future premium payments annually (no out-of-pocket cash outlay from you). Your Sales Representative will assist you in making this change, if necessary, and in putting this procedure in effect. The number of years illustrated that out-of-pocket premium payments are required under the Accelerated Payment arrangement is based upon the dividend scale in effect at the time the policy is issued. Dividends, however, are not guaranteed. Changes in dividend scales may increase or decrease the number of years for which out-of-pocket premiums need to be paid. Also, if future dividend scales decrease after this Accelerate Payment procedure is started, it is possible that values may not be sufficient in some future years to pay the then full current premium, again requiring out-of-pocket payment of the insufficient amount. The Accelerated Payment arrangement increases your flexibility. When dividends are sufficient, you may stop your out-of-pocket outlay or continue to pay your premiums as you normally do. Even if you have chosen to pay premiums by the Accelerated Payment arrangement, you may return to paying your premiums directly at any time.
