Exhibit 99.1
NEW SOURCE ENERGY CORPORATION
VOLUNTARILY WITHDRAWS LISTING
OKLAHOMA CITY – May 14, 2012 – In order to comply with Rule 12d2-2 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), New Source Energy Corporation (“New Source”) today announced that it has notified the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) that it will file a Form 25 with the Securities and Exchange Commission to voluntarily withdraw its common stock, par value $0.001 per share, from listing on the NYSE. New Source is withdrawing its application to list its common stock with the NYSE as a result of its decision to terminate its initial public offering of common stock covered by the Registration Statement on Form S-1 (Registration No. 333-176548). Because New Source has determined not to proceed with this offering at this time, New Source has made no arrangements for the listing of its common stock on another national securities exchange or the quotation of its common stock in another quotation medium.
