EXHIBIT 10i

SPLIT DOLLAR LIFE INSURANCE AGREEMENT

THIS AGREEMENT is entered into as of this 31st day of May, 2001, by and
between ABRAMS INDUSTRIES, INC., a Georgia corporation (hereinafter the
Corporation), ALAN R. ABRAMS (hereinafter the Employee), and ALAN R. ABRAMS,
as owner of the Policy (hereinafter, with any subsequent assignee or owner of
the Policy, the Owner).

WHEREAS, the Employee is an employee of the Corporation; and

WHEREAS, the Corporation wishes to assist the Employee in his efforts
to obtain funds which will be used to purchase one or more life insurance
policies.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and of the mutual
promises contained herein, the parties agree as follows:

1.      Policy. The life insurance policy on the life of ALAN R.
ABRAMS (hereinafter referred to as the Insured) with which the Agreement deals
is listed in Exhibit A attached hereto (the life insurance policy, along with
any supplementary contracts issued in connection therewith, are collectively
referred to as the Policy, and the issuer of the Policy is collectively
referred to as the Insurer).

2.      Premiums. Each premium on the Policy shall be paid by the
Corporation, on behalf of the Corporation and the Owner, as it becomes due. The
Corporation shall annually furnish the Employee with a statement of the amount
of income reportable by the Employee for Federal and state income tax purposes
as a result of the insurance protection provided to the Employee (the Economic
Benefit). The Economic Benefit shall be equal to the lesser of (i) the P.S.
58 cost, and (ii) the Insurers current published premium for annually renewable
term insurance for standard risks, plus such other benefits relating to the
Policy provided to the Employee, all determined in accordance with the
guidelines set out in Rev. Rul. 64-328, 1964-2 C.B. 11, and Rev. Rul. 66-110,
1966-1 C.B. 12. For purposes of this Agreement, the Employee shall be deemed to
have paid to the Insurer the portion of each premium equal to the Economic
Benefit.

3.      Application of Dividends. Any annual dividends attributable to
the Policy shall be utilized in such manner as the Corporation and the Owner
shall from time to time agree. Without limitation, the dividends may be (i) paid
out; (ii) used, in whole or in part, to reduce premiums on the Policy, to
purchase paid-up additional life insurance or to purchase one-year term
insurance; or (iii) accumulated until the parties direct how the dividends shall
be applied or paid out.

4.      Security Interest and Collateral Assignment. To secure the
repayment to the Corporation of the amount of the Corporations Current Policy
Interest, as defined herein, the Owner has executed a collateral assignment of
the Policy to the Corporation (hereinafter the Collateral Assignment).

5.      Death Benefit. In the event the Policy becomes a claim by
reason of the death of the Insured, the Corporation shall have an interest in
the proceeds of the Policy equal to the



---



Corporations Current Policy Interest, as defined herein. The balance, if any,
of the proceeds of the Policy in excess of the Corporations Current Policy
Interest shall be paid directly by the Insurer to the designated beneficiary
under the Policy. In no event shall the amount payable to the Corporation
hereunder exceed the proceeds payable due to the death of the Insured, and no
amount shall be paid from such death benefit to the designated beneficiary until
the full amount due the Corporation hereunder has been paid. Notwithstanding
anything in this paragraph 5 to the contrary, if, for any reason whatsoever, no
death benefit is payable under the Policy upon the death of the Insured and, in
lieu thereof, the Insurer refunds all or any part of the premiums paid under the
Policy, the Corporation and the Owner shall have the unqualified right to share
such refund based on their respective cumulative contributions (deemed or
actual) thereto.

6.      Corporations Interest.

(a)  In the event the Policy becomes a claim by reason of the death
of the Insured, the Corporations Current Policy Interest shall be equal to
the greater of:

this Agreement as provided in paragraph 7 above, the Owner shall have the option
