AMENDMENT NO. 1 TO SCHEDULE 13E-3

This Amendment No. 1 (this “Amendment”) amends and supplements the Schedule 13E-3 Transaction Statement initially filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on August 29, 2008 (as amended, the “Schedule 13E-3” or the “Transaction Statement”) on behalf of UnionBanCal Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and relates to the cash tender offer by The Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi UFJ, Ltd. (“BTMU”), a joint stock company (kabushiki kaisha) incorporated in Japan under the Commercial Code of Japan and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group, Inc., a joint stock company (kabushiki kaisha) incorporated in Japan under the Commercial Code of Japan (“MUFG”), disclosed in a Tender Offer Statement and Schedule 13E-3 Transaction Statement on Schedule TO dated as of the date hereof (the “Schedule TO”) filed with the SEC, to purchase all of the outstanding shares of common stock, par value $1.00 per share, of the Company (the “Common Stock”) not owned by MUFG or its affiliates, at a price of $73.50 per share, net to the seller in cash (the “Offer Price”), without interest thereon, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase dated as of the date hereof (the “Offer to Purchase”), and the related Letter of Transmittal (which, together with any amendments or supplements thereto, constitute the “Offer”).

This Transaction Statement also relates to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of August 18, 2008, by and among the Company, BTMU and Blue Jackets, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of BTMU (“Merger Sub”) (as such agreement may be amended or supplemented from time to time, the “Merger Agreement”). The Merger Agreement provides, among other things, for the making of the Offer by BTMU and further provides that, upon the terms and subject to the conditions contained in the Merger Agreement, as soon as reasonably practicable, and in any event within three business days after the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, and subject to and upon the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement and the Delaware General Corporation Law, Merger Sub will merge with and into the Company (the “Merger”), the separate corporate existence of Merger Sub shall thereupon cease and the Company shall continue as the surviving corporation in the Merger. Upon completion of the Merger, all shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the closing of the Merger, other than such shares of Common Stock owned by the Company, by MUFG or its affiliates, or by holders of Common Stock who have perfected appraisal rights, will be converted into the right to receive an amount in cash equal to the Offer Price (the “Merger Consideration”).

Concurrently with the filing of this Amendment, the Company filed with the SEC Amendment No. 1 to the Solicitation/Recommendation Statement on Schedule 14D-9 initially filed by the Company on August 29, 2008 (as amended, the “Schedule 14D-9”).
