        <ReturnReference>Schedule D, Part X, Line 2</ReturnReference>
        <Explanation>U.S. GAAP REQUIRES THAT A TAX POSITION IS RECOGNIZED AS A BENEFIT ONLY IF IT IS "MORE LIKELY THAN NOT" THAT THE TAX POSITION WOULD BE SUSTAINED IN A TAX EXAMINATION, WITH A TAX EXAMINATION BEING PRESUMED TO OCCUR. THE AMOUNT RECOGNIZED IS THE LARGEST AMOUNT OF TAX BENEFIT THAT IS GREATER THAN 50% LIKELY OF BEING REALIZED ON EXAMINATION. FOR TAX POSITIONS NOT MEETING THE "MORE LIKELY THAN NOT" TEST, NO TAX BENEFIT IS RECORDED. DUE TO ITS TAX-EXEMPT STATUS, HPBC IS NOT SUBJECT TO U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX OR STATE INCOME TAX. HPBC'S FORM 990 HAS NOT BEEN SUBJECT TO EXAMINATION BY THE INTERNAL REVENUE SERVICE OR THE STATE OF FLORIDA FOR THE LAST THREE YEARS. HPBC DOES NOT EXPECT THE TOTAL AMOUNT OF UNRECOGNIZED TAX BENEFITS TO SIGNIFICANTLY CHANGE IN THE NEXT 12 MONTHS. HPBC RECOGNIZES INTEREST AND/OR PENALTIES RELATED TO INCOME TAX MATTERS IN INCOME TAX EXPENSE. HPBC DID NOT HAVE ANY AMOUNTS ACCRUED FOR INTEREST AND PENALTIES AT SEPTEMBER 30, 2011 AND 2010.</Explanation>
