SECOND AMENDMENT TO AMENDED AND RESTATED LOAN AGREEMENT

This SECOND AMENDMENT TO AMENDED AND RESTATED LOAN AGREEMENT (this "Amendment") is dated as of March 21, 2008, is between FLORIDA PUBLIC UTILITIES COMPANY, a Florida corporation (the "Company") and BANK OF AMERICA, N.A., a national banking association (the "Lender"), and amends that certain Amended and Restated Loan Agreement (as previously amended, the "Original Agreement"), dated October 29, 2004, between the Company and the Lender.

Section 1. Section 2.01(a) of the Original Agreement is amended to provide:

(a)

Establishment of Line of Credit. On the Closing Date, and upon fulfillment of the applicable conditions set forth herein, the Lender shall establish in favor of the Company a revolving line of credit (the "Revolving Line of Credit") in the amount of the Availability. Subject to reduction as herein provided, the Availability is $26,000,000.00. The Company shall be entitled to borrow, repay and reborrow funds from the Lender in accordance with the terms hereof so long as the sum of (i) the total principal amount owed to the Lender under the Revolving Line of Credit plus (ii) the Outstanding Letter of Credit Amount (as defined in Section 2.01(e)) does not exceed the Availability. This indebtedness shall be evidenced by a Revolving Promissory Note (as amended, extended or renewed from time to time, the "Promissory Note") of even date herewith executed by the Company in favor of the Lender in the principal amount of up to $26,000,000. The Promissory Note shall bear interest at the rate set forth therein and shall be payable as set forth therein.

The Revolving Line of Credit shall terminate on July 1, 2010 (as such date may be extended, the "Expiration Date"). The Expiration Date will be considered renewed if and only if the Lender has sent to the Company a written notice of renewal (the "Renewal Notice"). If the Revolving Line of Credit is renewed, it will continue to be subject to all the terms and conditions set forth in this Loan Agreement except as modified by the Renewal Notice. If the Revolving Line of Credit is renewed, the term "Expiration Date" shall mean the date set forth in the Renewal Notice as the Expiration Date and the same process for renewal will apply to any subsequent renewal of the Revolving Line of Credit. A renewal fee may be charged at the Lender's option. The amount of any renewal fee will be specified in the Renewal Notice.

The Lender shall not in any event be required to make an Advance during the continuance of an Event of Default or if any change in the financial condition of the Company occurs which, in the Lender's discretion, is material and adverse.

At any time the Company may permanently reduce the Availability in increments of $1,000,000.00 by providing not less than 30 days' prior written notice to the Lender, requesting the decrease and specifying the effective date thereof (the date of the first such decrease being referred to herein as the "Reduction Date").

Section 2.

The Company shall pay the Bank a facility fee in the amount of $35,874.00.

Section 3.

The Company agrees to pay the fee of counsel to the Lender, Holland & Knight LLP, in the amount of $750.00, within 15 days after billing, and failing such payment authorize the Lender to debit such fee from any account of the Company maintained at the Lender.

Section 4.

The Company acknowledges that the Original Agreement remains in full force and effect except as modified by or as described herein. The Company affirms all representations and warranties made by it in the Original Agreement as of the date hereof. The Company affirms the grant of the security interest made by it in the Security Agreement dated October 29, 2004. The Company affirms that the Tax Indemnity Agreement dated October 29, 2004 between the Company and the Lender remains in effect and encompasses the Loan and the Promissory Note as modified hereby.

Section 5.

This Amendment may be executed in several counterparts, each of which shall be an original and all of which shall constitute but one and the same instrument.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Second Amendment to Amended and Restated Loan Agreement to be duly executed and delivered by their respective officers thereunto duly authorized as of the date first above written.

Renewal Revolving Promissory Note

Effective Date: March 21, 2008

Amount: $26,000,000.00

Maturity Date: July 1, 2010

Lender:
Bank of America, N.A. 9000 Southside Boulevard Building 100 FL9-100-03-15 Jacksonville, FL 32256-0793 Borrower:
Florida Public Utilities Company 401 South Dixie Highway West Palm Beach, FL 33401

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, Florida Public Utilities Company (the "Borrower") unconditionally promises to pay to the order of Bank of America, N.A. and its successors and assigns (the "Lender"), without setoff, in immediately available funds, at its offices indicated at the beginning of this Note, or at such other place as may be designated by Lender (the “Payment Office of Lender”), the principal amount of Twenty-Six Million Dollars ($26,000,000.00), or so much thereof as may be advanced from time to time, together with interest computed daily on the outstanding principal balance hereunder, at an annual interest rate, and in accordance with the payment schedule, indicated below.

1.

Rate. Variable Interest Rate. The interest rate on this Note is a fluctuating rate of interest based upon "The Wall Street Journal LIBOR One Month Floating Rate." The Wall Street Journal LIBOR One Month Floating Rate is a fluctuating rate of interest equal to the one month London Interbank Offered Rate as published in the "Money Rates" section of The Wall Street Journal (or, if such source is not available, such alternate source as determined by the Lender) as adjusted from time to time in the Lender’s sole discretion for reserve requirements, deposit insurance assessment rates and other regulatory costs (the "Index"). Any change in the Index, and thus, the interest rate on this Note, will take effect on the effective date as indicated in The Wall Street Journal (or any alternate source described herein). Interest will accrue on any day which is not a Business Day at the rate in effect on the immediately preceding Business Day. A Business Day is any day other than a Saturday or Sunday or day on which the Payment Office of Lender is lawfully closed.

The interest rate to be applied to the unpaid principal balance of this Note will be at a rate equal to the Index plus an additional percentage per annum (the "Spread"). The Spread will be 0.80% per annum.

Notwithstanding any provision of this Note, Lender does not intend to charge and Borrower shall not be required to pay any amount of interest or other charges in excess of the maximum permitted by the applicable law. Any payment in excess of such maximum shall be credited against the principal balance of this Note and any remaining excess shall be refunded to the Borrower.

2.

Accrual Method. The interest rate on this Note shall be computed on a 360/actual basis; that is, by applying the ratio of the annual interest rate over a year of 360 days, multiplied by the outstanding principal balance, multiplied by the actual number of days the principal balance is outstanding.

3.

Payment Schedule. All payments received hereunder shall be applied first to the payment of any expense or charges payable hereunder or under any other Loan Documents executed in connection with this Note, then to interest due and payable, with the balance applied to principal, or in such other order as Lender shall determine at its option. Principal shall be paid in full in a single payment on July 1, 2010 (the "Maturity Date"). Interest on the principal amount outstanding hereunder shall be paid monthly, commencing on April 1, 2008, and continuing on the same day of each consecutive month thereafter, with a final payment of all unpaid interest at the stated maturity of this Note.

This Note may be renewed effective July 1, 2010 and thereafter if and only if the Lender has sent to the Borrower a written notice of renewal (the "Renewal Notice") effective as of the Maturity Date and the Borrower has accepted the same. If this Note is renewed, it will continue to be subject to all the terms and conditions set forth herein except as modified by the Renewal Notice. If this Note is renewed, the term "Maturity Date" shall mean the date set forth in the Renewal Notice as the Maturity Date, and all outstanding principal plus all accrued interest shall be paid on the Maturity Date. The same process for renewal will apply to any subsequent renewal of this Note. A renewal fee may be charged at Lender’s option. The amount of the renewal fee will be specified in the Renewal Notice.

4.

Revolving Feature; Availability. The Borrower may borrow, repay and reborrow under this Note from time to time up to Availability (as defined in the hereinafter described Loan Agreement), by requesting advances as provided in the Loan Agreement.

5.

Automatic Payment. Borrower has elected to authorize Lender to effect payment of interest due under this Note by means of debiting Borrower's account number 5488080210. This authorization shall not affect the obligation of Borrower to pay such sums when due, without notice, if there are insufficient funds in such account to make such payment in full on the due date thereof, or if Lender fails to debit the account.

6.

Waivers, Consents and Covenants. Borrower, any indorser or guarantor hereof, or any other party hereto (individually an "Obligor" and collectively "Obligors") and each of them, jointly and severally: (a) waive presentment, demand, protest, notice of demand, notice of intent to accelerate, notice of acceleration of maturity, notice of protest, notice of nonpayment, notice of dishonor, and any other notice otherwise required to be given under the law to any Obligor in connection with the delivery, acceptance, performance, default or enforcement of this Note, any indorsement or guaranty of this Note, or any other documents executed in connection with this Note including, but not limited to, the Amended and Restated Loan Agreement, dated October 29, 2004, between Lender and Borrower, as amended (as so amended, the "Loan Agreement") and the Related Documents described therein (the "Loan Documents"); (b) consent to all delays, extensions, renewals or other modifications of this Note or the Loan Documents, or waivers of any term hereof or of the Loan Documents, or release or discharge by Lender of any Obligor, or release, substitution or exchange of any security for the payment hereof, or the failure to act on the part of Lender, or any indulgence shown by Lender (without notice to or further assent from any Obligor), and agree that no such action, failure to act or failure to exercise any right or remedy by Lender shall in any way affect or impair the obligations of any Obligor or be construed as a waiver by Lender of, or otherwise affect, any of Lender's rights under this Note, under any indorsement or guaranty of this Note or under any of the Loan Documents; and (c) agree to pay, on demand, all costs and expenses of collection or defense of this Note or of any indorsement or guaranty hereof and/or the enforcement or defense of Lender's rights with respect to, or the administration, supervision, preservation, or protection of, or realization upon, any property securing payment hereof, including, without limitation, reasonable attorney's and paralegal’s fees, including fees related to any suit, mediation or arbitration proceeding, out of court payment agreement, trial, appeal, bankruptcy proceedings or other proceeding, in such amount as may be determined reasonable by any arbitrator or court, whichever is applicable.

7.

Indemnification. Obligor agrees to promptly pay, indemnify and hold Lender harmless from all State and Federal taxes of any kind (except State and Federal taxes based on income received by Lender, which shall not be an obligation of Obligor) and other liabilities with respect to or resulting from the execution and/or delivery of this Note or any advances made pursuant to this Note. Obligor expressly consents to the deduction of any applicable taxes from each advance extended by Lender hereunder.

8.

Prepayments. Prepayments may be made in whole or in part at any time.

9.

Delinquency Charge. Borrower shall pay on demand of Lender, a delinquency charge in an amount not to exceed two percent (2%) of any payment that is more than fifteen days late.

10.

Events of Default. It shall be an event of default hereunder if there shall be an Event of Default under the Loan Agreement.

11.

Remedies upon Default. Whenever there is a default under this Note (a) the entire balance outstanding hereunder and all other obligations of any Obligor to Lender (however acquired or evidenced) shall, at the option of Lender, become immediately due and payable and any obligation of Lender to permit further borrowing under this Note shall immediately cease and terminate, and/or (b) to the extent permitted by law, the rate of interest on the unpaid principal shall be increased at Lender's discretion up to the maximum rate allowed by law (the "Default Rate"). The provisions herein for a Default Rate shall not be deemed to extend the time for any payment hereunder or to constitute a "grace period" giving any Obligor a right to cure any default. At Lender's option, any accrued and unpaid interest, fees or charges may, for purposes of computing and accruing interest on a daily basis after the due date of the Note or any installment thereof, be deemed to be a part of the principal balance, and interest shall accrue on a daily compounded basis after such date at the Default Rate until the entire outstanding balance of principal and interest is paid in full. Upon a default under this Note, Lender is hereby authorized at any time, at its option and without notice or demand, to set off and charge against any deposit accounts of any Obligor (as well as any money, instruments, securities, documents, chattel paper, credits, claims, demands, income and any other property, rights and interests of any Obligor), which at any time shall come into the possession or custody or under the control of Lender or any of its agents, affiliates or correspondents, any and all obligations due hereunder. Additionally, Lender shall have all rights and remedies available under each of the Loan Documents, as well as all rights and remedies available at law or in equity.

12.

Non-waiver. The failure at any time of Lender to exercise any of its options or any other rights hereunder shall not constitute a waiver thereof, nor shall it be a bar to the exercise of any of its options or rights at a later date. All rights and remedies of Lender shall be cumulative and may be pursued singly, successively or together, at the option of Lender. The acceptance by Lender of any partial payment shall not constitute a waiver of any default or of any of Lender's rights under this Note. No waiver of any of its rights hereunder, and no modification or amendment of this Note, shall be deemed to be made by Lender unless the same shall be in writing, duly signed on behalf of Lender; each such waiver shall apply only with respect to the specific instance involved, and shall in no way impair the rights of Lender or the obligations of Obligors to Lender in any other respect at any other time.

13.

Applicable Law, Venue and Jurisdiction. This Note and the rights and obligations of Borrower and Lender shall be governed by and interpreted in accordance with the law of the State of Florida. In any litigation in connection with or to enforce this Note or any indorsement or guaranty of this Note or any Loan Documents, Obligors, and each of them, irrevocably consent to and confer personal jurisdiction on the courts of the State of Florida or the United States located within the State of Florida and expressly waive any objections as to venue in any such courts. Nothing contained herein shall, however, prevent Lender from bringing any action or exercising any rights within any other state or jurisdiction or from obtaining personal jurisdiction by any other means available under applicable law.

14.

Partial Invalidity. The unenforceability or invalidity of any provision of this Note shall not affect the enforceability or validity of any other provision herein and the invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of this Note or of the Loan Documents to any person or circumstance shall not affect the enforceability or validity of such provision as it may apply to other persons or circumstances.

15.

Binding Effect. This Note shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of Borrower, Obligors and Lender and their respective successors, assigns, heirs and personal representatives, provided, however, that no obligations of Borrower or Obligors hereunder can be assigned without prior written consent of Lender.

16.

Controlling Document. To the extent that this Note conflicts with or is in any way incompatible with any other document related specifically to the loan evidenced by this Note, this Note shall control over any other such document, and if this Note does not address an issue, then each other such document shall control to the extent that it deals most specifically with an issue.

Borrower acknowledges having read and understood, and agrees to be bound by, all terms and conditions of this Note, including the variable interest rate provisions, and hereby executes this Note as of the date here above written. Borrower acknowledges receipt of a completed copy of this Note.

NOTICE OF FINAL AGREEMENT. THIS WRITTEN PROMISSORY NOTE REPRESENTS THE FINAL AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE PARTIES AND MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED BY EVIDENCE OF PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS, OR SUBSEQUENT ORAL AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES. THERE ARE NO UNWRITTEN ORAL AGREEMENTS BETWEEN THE PARTIES.
