Columbia, Maryland – February 9, 2011 – New Generation Biofuels Holdings, Inc. (OTCQB: NGBF.PK) (the “Company”), a clean energy company deploying novel technologies to produce cleaner, renewable biofuels, announced today that it has rescheduled the special shareholders meeting.  The action results from the Company’s determination that it would not have a quorum present for the meeting, scheduled for February 10, 2011 at the Company’s offices in Columbia, Maryland.  The rescheduled meeting date is March 3, 2011.  The Company also announced that it will amend the proxy statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission to restate the requested increase in authorized common shares and to eliminate the proposed increase in the Company’s omnibus incentive plan sought at the meeting.  The amended proxy will reflect a requested increase in authorized of 250,000,000 to a total of 350,000,000.  The action was taken to simplify approval of the one remaining proxy item, an increase in the authorized common shares.
