Announcement of U.S. Regulatory Actions

Tokyo, December 19, 2006 — Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group, Inc. and The Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi UFJ, Ltd. today entered into a Written Agreement with the Federal Reserve Banks of San Francisco and New York and the New York State Banking Department, and Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi UFJ Trust Company consented to a Cease & Desist Order with the U.S. Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation and the New York State Banking Department, to strengthen the compliance framework and operations of The Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi UFJ, Ltd., New York Branch, and Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi UFJ Trust Company, respectively, for preventing money laundering.

The Group accepts with utmost seriousness the actions of the U.S. supervisory authorities. Our immediate objective is to meet regulatory expectations as quickly as possible. To this end we are cooperating fully and maintaining an ongoing dialogue with our supervisors, and are fully committed to implementing an action plan that will be acceptable to our supervisors both now and going forward. The action plan will be based on our awareness that money laundering is an issue that must be addressed on a global level through strong internal controls, including enhanced IT systems and continuous training. Indeed, we have already begun our remediation efforts and will continue those efforts as vigorously as possible until the concerns set forth in these regulatory actions have been appropriately resolved.
