New
Generation Biofuels Announces Rescheduled Special Shareholders
Meeting
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.
