Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure

On September 27, 2010, Corning Natural Gas Corporation ("Corning") entered into agreements with Five Star Bank (the "Bank") including a Promissory Note (the "Note"), Assignment of Contracts (the "Assignment"), Undertaking and Compliance Agreement and Certification of No Change of Circumstance (together, the "Loan Documents") to document a loan in the principal amount of $750,000 by the Bank to Corning (the "Loan"). Interest on the Loan is payable monthly at a fixed interest rate of 4.25% per annum. Unless sooner accelerated or demanded under the terms of the Note, the Loan will mature on September 25, 2011, at which time all principal and any unpaid interest under the Note will become due. Any amounts due under the Note will become immediately due and payable in the event of a default as defined in the Note and may be prepaid at any time without penalty. The obligations under the Note are secured by the other Loan Documents. The Loan Documents contain customary representations, warranties and covenants made by the parties.

The purpose of this Note is to fund construction of an upgrade to existing natural gas piping to serve increased needs at Corning Incorporated plants. Corning's rights under the agreement between Corning and Corning Incorporated concerning the upgrade have been assigned to the Bank pursuant to the Assignment to secure the Loan.
