The board is only made of fiberglass. Just do as Ben had written and score it several times then it should break clean. I didnt use this method, as I have a scroll saw.

Well I have woodworking blades on my scroll saw I just saw to it that I made the cuts fast as the fiberglass I've heard dulls blads easily.

Maybe, but is it in a vital area of the board? And if you font drop it or drop things on it it shouldnt break, I would suggest checking the leads you dont want any of them to have be broken.
