Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

The information included in Item 2.03 is incorporated by reference to this Item 1.01

Item 2.03. Creation of a Direct Financial obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement

On March 21, 2008 Florida Public Utilities Company (‘the Company’) entered into an amended and restated loan agreement and security agreement with the Bank of America, N.A. (‘Bank’), relating to the Company’s line of credit (‘LOC’). The previous agreement for the LOC was also held with the Bank. The amended agreement increases the LOC, upon 30 days notice by the Company, from $12.0 million to a maximum of $26.0 million and expires on July 1, 2010, at which time all outstanding balances must be paid in full. The LOC has a floating interest rate on borrowed funds based on the London Interbank Offered Rate (‘LIBOR’) plus .80%. There was no change in the fees of .10% on the total available LOC amount and .25% on the unused portion of the LOC. The LOC contains affirmative and negative covenants that, if violated, would give the Bank the right to accelerate the due date of the loan to be immediately payable. These covenants are typical for credit agreements of this size and nature. Balances in cash, accounts receivable and inventory remain as collateral for the line of credit. The Company uses the Bank for primary banking and treasury services.
