34 HWFG Sought Opportunity in the Environment HWFG reduced the investment portfolio and CMBS TROR swaps by over $200 million from December 2004 to June 2007 in the tight spread environment HWFG sought opportunity in high credit quality mortgage securities, as spreads widened greatly in the third quarter of 2007 to attractive levels AAA rated CMBS AAA and AA (primarily first lien) Home Equity Securities HWFG conducted considerable credit risk analysis and concluded All interest and principal could be earned-out under very stressful delinquency and loss scenarios Spreads for the credit risk were very high Purchased $75 million of Home Equity Securities (selected carefully) and $80 million of AAA rated CMBS TROR swaps in September and December quarters of 2007

39 Accounting for The Value of Investments Other Than Temporary Impaired (OTTI) - A permanent write-down of the security or loan through earnings, as the forecasted cash flow from the security or loan based on conservative assumptions is not sufficient to pay all principal and interest. Mark To Market (MTM) Gain or Loss - The market price or fair value of the investment as published by pricing sources and brokers based on current market conditions minus the book value of the investment. HWFG'S AVAILABLE FOR SALE INVESTMENT LOSSES HAVE LARGELY BEEN MARK TO MARKET LOSSES, AND AS OF MARCH 31, 2008, THESE INVESTMENTS ARE EXPECTED TO PAYOUT ALL INTEREST AND PRINCIPAL ON CURRENT ASSUMPTIONS AND MARKET CONDITIONS ALTHOUGH NO ASSURANCE CAN BE GIVEN. THE INVESTMENTS ARE ANALYZED MONTHLY FOR OTTI.

40 Results of 2007 Investment Decisions Cashflow stress testing holding up under current environment Principal and interest to be returned based on current market conditions and stress tests Small portion of seasoned portfolio of net interest bonds were OTTI ($2.4 million) in September 2007 quarter HWFG underestimated severity of investor de-leveraging and aversion to credit risk and resulting illiquidity causing huge spread widening and security price declines Mark-to-market losses ensued on CMBS TROR swaps and AFS mortgage portfolio

46 Potential Upside to HWFG’s Valuation and Book Value per Share Spreads continue to narrow and mark to market losses decline HWFG earns out the investments at par and mark to market losses dissipate over the four and a half year average life of the portfolio Write-offs remain low and manageable Core banking franchise valuation should increase with core deposit development and positive loan credit performance

47 HWFG’s Response to Environment and Financial Results Eliminated exposure to CMBS TROR, which gains and losses are recorded in earnings Added $50 million of CMBS securities in AFS portfolio in April 2008 given wide spreads at 3/31/2008 – will sell as spreads tighten Raised $4.3 million of common capital Sold overvalued assets expediently to bolster capital Hawaii real estate investment ($800 thousand gain) $16.3 million of low spread earning, single family loans ($250 thousand gain) Evaluating other alternatives to increase capital levels with emphasis on being non-dilutive to shareholders Earning out of current investments

65 Goals for 2008 and Beyond Maintain Los Padres Bank’s well capitalized status and improve shareholder value Build capital and book value per share through earnings and earn out and spread recovery of investment portfolio Increase franchise value through core deposit development Restore HWFG to target profitability of 12-15% ROAE Diligently manage risks and manage problem assets in challenging banking environment Reduce volatility of earnings as much as possible and reduce investments through paydown and sale Develop core deposits (5-10% growth) with PowerUp leading the way Increase net loans (5-10%) but remain cautious Grow banking fee income in HWM fees, deposit and loan fees, and BOLI at 10% rate Build-out franchise congruent with performance Control operating expenses

66 Why Invest in HWFG? Low price to tangible book value of 80% - favorable to peer group Significant upside potential to HWFG’s book value MTM of investments improve from earnout or spread normalization Core earnings accumulate Core earnings produce low to mid teens return on average equity High inside ownership Focus on risk management practices Risks: Further sharp deterioration in real estate values Prolonged weak economy affecting borrowers Adverse change in capital requirements
