PERSONAL AND CONFIDENTIAL

Mr. Robert W. Anestis
c/o Florida East Coast Industries, Inc.
One Malaga Street
St. Augustine, FL 32084

Dear Bob:

         The purpose of this letter agreement (the "Agreement") is to
acknowledge, and set forth the terms of, our agreement with regard to your
termination of employment with Florida East Coast Industries, Inc. ("FECI") and
its subsidiaries, affiliates successors and assigns (the "Company").

         1. Resignation. (a) You hereby confirm your resignation as Chairman of
the Board of Directors of FECI (the "Board") and as a director and an officer of
the Company and your resignation from employment with the Company (each of the
above being a "Termination" for purposes of this Agreement), each effective as
of the date of the 2005 annual meeting of shareholders of FECI or, if earlier,
the earlier of (x) such date as a new Chief Executive Officer of FECI or
Chairman of the Board of FECI is elected and commences employment with the
Company or (y) termination of your employment under the employment agreement
between you and FECI dated as of October 30, 1998, as amended as of March 6,
2003 and as further amended as of February 26, 2004 (the "Employment Agreement")
for any other reason pursuant to its terms (other than voluntary resignation
without "good reason" or termination for cause) (the "Termination Date"). The
Termination will be classified as a termination for good reason for purposes of
the Employment Agreement. In addition, effective as of the Termination Date, you
hereby confirm your resignation from all offices, directorship, trusteeships,
committee memberships and fiduciary capacities held with, or on behalf of, the
Company or any benefit plans of the Company. On and after the Termination Date,
you will not be eligible for any benefits or compensation, other than as
specifically provided herein.

         (b) During the period between the date hereof and the Termination Date,
you will continue in all of your current capacities with the Company, including
as Chairman of the Board of FECI and Chief Executive Officer of FECI with your
current duties, responsibilities and authority.

         2. Severance Payments and Benefits. Subject to Sections 3, 4 and 5, you
will be entitled to receive the following payments and benefits as promptly as
practicable after the Termination Date, other than those expressly payable on a
deferred or other basis:

Mr. Robert W. Anestis
February 10, 2005

         (a) Cash Severance Payments.

                  (i) A lump sum cash payment equal to the sum of (A) your base
         salary through the later of the Termination Date and the scheduled date
         of the 2005 annual meeting of shareholders of FECI to the extent not
         theretofore paid; (B) to the extent not theretofore paid, any annual
         bonus payable to you for any fiscal year completed prior to the
         Termination Date; (C) the product of (x) the greater of any annual
         bonus paid or payable, including by reason of any deferral, to you for
         the most recently completed fiscal year, if any, and the average
         annualized bonus paid or payable, including by reason of any deferral,
         to you by the Company in respect of the three fiscal years immediately
         preceding the fiscal year in which the Termination Date occurs (such
         greater amount will be hereinafter referred to as the "Highest Annual
         Bonus") and (y) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of
         days in the current fiscal year through the later of the Termination
         Date or the scheduled date of the 2005 annual meeting of shareholders
         of FECI, and the denominator of which is 365; (D) any compensation
         previously deferred by you (together with any accrued interest or
         earnings thereon) to the extent not theretofore paid; and (E) accrued
         vacation pay of $119,000, expense reimbursement and any other
         entitlements accrued by you under Section 2(b) of the Employment
         Agreement, to the extent not theretofore paid;

                  (ii) A lump sum in cash equal to two times the sum of your
         base salary plus Highest Annual Bonus; provided, however, that the
         foregoing will be subject to automatic adjustment to the extent
         required by Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as
         amended (the "Code"), provided that the Company will be deemed to have
         amended the Employment Agreement with regard to the severance payments
         in this Section 2(a)(ii) to permit you to elect the aforesaid lump sum
         payment under Q&A 20 of Internal Revenue Service Notice 2005-1.

         (b) Continued Benefits. (i) Until December 31, 2005 or such longer
period as any plan, program, practice or policy may provide, continued benefits
for you and your spouse at least equal to those which would have been provided
in accordance with the plans, programs, practices and policies described in
Section 2(b)(viii) of the Employment Agreement if your employment had not been
terminated, in accordance with the most favorable plans, practices, programs or
policies of the Company as in effect generally at any time thereafter with
respect to other peer executives of the Company and their families. If allowed
under the applicable plan, for purposes of determining eligibility (but not the
time of commencement of benefits), you will be considered to have remained
employed until December 31, 2005 and to have retired on the last day of such
period. In addition, you and your spouse will continue to be covered by the
Company's health benefit plan (including, without limitation, medical, dental,
vision and prescription drug

<PAGE>

Mr. Robert W. Anestis

benefits) on an insured basis within the meaning of Section 105(h) of the Code
until each of you attain age sixty-five, subject to your continued copayment of
premiums which will not exceed the level of copayment made by the active
employees of the Company.

                  (ii) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if, in the good faith
         judgment of the Company, coverage under subparagraph (i) cannot be
         provided under the Company's benefit plans without jeopardizing the tax
         status of such plans, for underwriting reasons or because of the tax
         impact on you, the Company will pay you an amount equal to the cost to
         the Company for a similarly situated active employee fully grossed-up
         to cover taxes on such amount and the gross-up payment, except that in
         no case can the Company substitute a cash payment for health benefits.

                  (iii) If you become reemployed with another employer and are
         eligible to receive medical or other welfare benefits under another
         employer-provided plan, the medical and other welfare benefits
         described herein will be secondary (to the extent permitted under the
         applicable medical plans) to those provided under such other plan
         during such applicable period of eligibility.

         (c) 2004 Performance Share Grant. Except as provided in the last
sentence of Section 2(d), below, the Company will grant you a 2004 performance
share award at the time such awards are normally made in February, 2005, but in
no event later than the Termination Date, consistent with past practices as to
form (including the right to reduction of shares for withholding purposes) and
methodology of determining the amount, except that such grant will be fully
vested at the time of grant. The parties agree that the number of shares of FECI
common stock to be granted pursuant to this Section 2(c) will be determined
based on the formula and performance targets previously approved by the
Compensation Committee with regard to the annual cash incentive and long term
incentive plans (subject to adjustment to reflect changes in the capital
structure or other corporate events affecting FECI common stock).

         (d) 2005 Equity Grant. Prior to the Termination Date, the Company will
grant you a pro-rata portion of the stock options or other equity awards that
you would have received in 2005 (including any portion which would otherwise be
awarded in February, 2006) had your employment not been terminated consistent
with past practices as to form (including the right to reduction of shares for
withholding purposes) and methodology of determining the amount (which will be
based on the same level of corporate performance that the award in February,
2005 will be awarded), based on a fraction, the numerator of which is the number
of days in the 2005 fiscal year through the scheduled date of the 2005 annual
meeting of shareholders of FECI, and the denominator of which is 365, except
that such grant will be fully vested at the time of grant and if, in the form of
options, will remain exercisable for a period of five years following the
Termination Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may pay you a lump
sum cash payment, within 30 days after the Termination Date, representing the
value of the

<PAGE>

Page 4

performance share award that would otherwise be granted pursuant to Section
2(c), above, and the pro-rata portion of the stock options or other equity
awards that would otherwise be granted pursuant to this Section 2(d), provided
that the Company notifies you in writing, at the time the grants would otherwise
have been made, of its election to make such lump sum cash payment.

         (e) Treatment of Outstanding Equity. Upon the Termination Date, (i)
each stock option outstanding (including any stock option granted pursuant to
Section 2(d) hereof) will become fully vested and will remain exercisable for a
period of five years following the Termination Date, but in no event beyond the
stated term of such stock option, and (ii) the restricted period on each share
of restricted stock outstanding will lapse. In addition, effective immediately
each outstanding stock option will be fully transferable by you; provided,
however, that (x) any stock option that is transferred may not be subsequently
transferred, except by will or by the laws of descent and distribution, (y) no
such transfer may be made unless such transfer is approved by the General
Counsel, which approval will not be unreasonably withheld and (z) no such
transfer will be permitted unless the General Counsel of the Company has
concluded that, without further action by the Company, such transfer and the
subsequent exercise of the stock option by the transferee will not involve any
violation of applicable Federal or state law, including securities laws.

         (f) Outplacement Services. The Company will provide you with
outplacement services at a level commensurate with your position for a period of
not less than one year following the Termination Date, but in no event extending
beyond the date on which you commence other full time employment.

         (g) Tax and Financial Planning Assistance. The Company will reimburse
you for the expenses incurred in connection with obtaining professional tax and
financial planning advice for a period of two years following the Termination
Date, which aggregate amount will not exceed $26,000.

         (h) Relocation. Within 30 days after the Termination Date, you will
receive a housing relocation benefit payment in the amount of $175,000.

         (i) Golden Parachute Payments. In the event any portion of your
payments or benefits hereunder constitutes a "parachute payment" within the
meaning of Section 280G of the Code, the provision of Exhibit A to the Change in
Control Agreement between you and FECI dated as of August 1, 2001 (the "Change
in Control Agreement") will apply hereto as if set forth in full herein.

         (j) Other Payments, Benefits, etc. Notwithstanding anything herein to
the contrary, you will be entitled to receive all other payments, benefits or
fringe benefits to which you may be entitled under the terms of any applicable
compensation arrangement or benefit, equity or fringe benefit plan or program or
grant.

         3. Full Discharge. You agree and acknowledge that the payments and
benefits provided in Section 2 above and the other entitlements hereunder (a)
are in full discharge of any and all liabilities and obligations of the Company
to you, monetarily or with respect to employee benefits or otherwise, including,
without limitation, any and all obligations arising under any alleged written or

after notice thereof.

                  The foregoing provisions of this subparagraph will not be
affected by your (v) continuing as a director of Genesee & Wyoming Inc.,
provided that you recuse yourself from any discussions regarding material
matters that are competitive with the Company, (w) owning not more than 5% of

         the Company, or (y) in any way interfere with the relationship between
         the Company and any customer, supplier, licensee or other business
         relation of the Company; provided, however, Section 5(b)(y) will not be

         specifically targeted at customers, clients, suppliers, licensees or
         other business relations of the Company as opposed to general
         marketing, advertising or soliciting in which such customers, clients,
         licensees or other business relations are included;

                  (iii) If a court holds that the duration, scope, area or other

         the extent that the arbitrator determines that such legal and other

made and the promises set forth in the Letter Agreement, I, for myself and for
my heirs, dependents, executors, administrators, trustees, legal representatives
and assigns (collectively referred to as "Releasors"), hereby forever release,
waive and discharge the Company, employee benefit and/or pension plans or funds,
insurers, successors and assigns, and all of its or their past, present and/or

all claims, demands, causes of action, fees and liabilities of any kind
whatsoever, whether known or unknown, which Releasors ever had, now have, or
hereafter may have against Releasees by reason of any actual or alleged act,
omission, transaction, practice, policy, procedure, conduct, occurrence, or
other matter up to and including the date of my execution of this General
Release, including without limitation, those in connection with, or in any way

Company or any other agreement, understanding, relationship, arrangement, act,

         (b) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, this General
Release is intended and will release the Releasees from any and all claims,

Opportunity Commission or other similar federal or state agency. Except as
otherwise required by law, I further agree that I will not, at any time
hereafter, commence, maintain, prosecute, participate in as a party, permit to
be filed by any other person on my behalf (to the extent it is within my control
or permitted by law), or assist in the commencement or prosecution of as an
advisor, witness (unless compelled by legal process or court order) or

apply to the portion of the release provided for in Section 3(a) or (b) relating
to the ADEA.

         (d) The sole matters to which the release and covenants in this Section

generality of the foregoing, nothing herein will be deemed to release me from
any of my acts or omissions involving or arising from criminal activity.

         5. Governing Law; Enforceability. The interpretation of this General
Release will be governed and construed in accordance with the laws of the State
of Florida, without reference to principles of conflict of laws. If any
provisions of this General Release will be declared to be invalid or
unenforceable, in whole or in part, such invalidity or unenforceability will not
affect the remaining provisions hereof which will remain in full force and
effect.

         6. Acknowledgement. I acknowledge that I have been advised by the
Company in writing to consult independent legal counsel of my choice before
signing this General Release. I further acknowledge that I have had the
opportunity to consult, and I have consulted with, independent legal counsel and
to consider the terms of this General Release for a period of at least 21 days.

attention of the General Counsel. In the event that I revoke this General
Release prior to the eighth day after its execution, this General Release and
the promises contained in the Letter Agreement, will automatically be null and
void.
