New Generation Biofuels' Shares to be Traded on OTCQB

New Generation Biofuels Holdings, Inc.

 (NASDAQ: NGBF), a leader in renewable fuels technology, announced today that it is moving off of The NASDAQ Capital Market and instead will have its shares quoted on the OTCQB marketplace. The Company had been appealing the NASDAQ determination to delist the Company's common stock due to the Company's non-compliance with the continued listing standard for shareholders' equity. In taking this action, the Company has notified NASDAQ that it is dropping the appeal.

The Company has been advised by Pink OTC Markets Inc., which operates an electronic quotation service for securities traded over-the-counter ("OTC"), that its securities are eligible for quotation on the OTCQB, effective with the opening of trading on Monday, December 13, 2010. The OTCQB is a market tier for OTC traded companies that are registered and reporting with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Company has also been advised that its shares will continue to trade under the symbol NGBF. Investors will be able to view real time stock quotes for NGBF at http://www.otcmarkets.com.

"While we remain confident that our strategic plan to strengthen the Company's finances and advance its business plan will be successful, after careful consideration we believe moving to the OTCQB marketplace at this time is in the best interests of the Company and our shareholders," stated Miles F. Mahoney, President and CEO. "We appreciate the patience and support our investors have shown and look forward to building significant value over the long term."
