Stockholders of record as of January 19, 2007 will be invited to attend the special meeting and vote on five proposals, including (i) the approval of the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated August 9, 2006, among Terra Nova, CPBR Acquisition, Inc., ClearPoint Business Resources, Inc. (“ClearPoint”) and the stockholders of ClearPoint, pursuant to which ClearPoint will become a wholly owned subsidiary of Terra Nova, (ii) the approval of amendment to the certificate of incorporation of Terra Nova to change the name of Terra Nova from “Terra Nova Acquisition Corporation” to “ClearPoint Business Resources, Inc.,” (iii) the approval of an amendment to the certificate of incorporation of Terra Nova to increase its authorized capitalization, (iv) the approval of an amendment to the certificate of incorporation of Terra Nova to remove those provisions that will no longer be operative upon consummation of the merger, and (v) the approval of the Long-Term Incentive Plan.

Certain Proxy Voting Procedures

Pursuant to Terra Nova’s certificate of incorporation, each Terra Nova stockholder who holds shares of common stock issued in Terra Nova’s initial public offering has the right to vote against the merger proposal and demand that, if the merger is consummated, Terra Nova convert such stockholder’s shares into cash equal to a pro rata portion of the funds held in Terra Nova’s trust account, calculated as of two business days prior to the anticipated consummation of the merger. If the holders of 20% (1,104,000) or more shares of common stock issued in Terra Nova’s initial public offering vote against the merger proposal and properly exercise their conversion rights, Terra Nova will not consummate the business combination.

If you are considering a vote against the merger proposal and the conversion of your shares of Terra Nova common stock into cash, please contact Lee Chung, Chief Financial Officer, of Terra Nova at (416) 644-6000 x300, for further information and instructions.


Ensuring Your Vote is Counted

In advance of the record date, Terra Nova advises holders of its securities to move these securities into accounts which do not permit the lending of securities, so called cash accounts or segregated accounts, and out of accounts that permit the lending of securities, such as margin accounts. These steps are designed to ensure that votes related to common and common shares beneficially owned by stockholders are properly counted. Beneficial owners of common shares that have been lent out (either with or without the beneficial owners’ knowledge) are not permitted to vote those shares. In connection with the proposed merger, Terra Nova has filed a preliminary proxy statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission. INVESTORS AND SECURITY HOLDERS ARE ADVISED TO READ THE DEFINITIVE PROXY STATEMENT THAT WILL BE MAILED TO ALL STOCKHOLDERS OF RECORD BECAUSE IT CONTAINS IMPORTANT INFORMATION. Investors and security holders may obtain a free copy of the definitive proxy statement and other documents filed by Terra Nova at the Securities and Exchange Commission’s web site at www.sec.gov.
