SCHEDULE 13E-3

This Amendment No.1 to Rule 13e-3 Transaction Statement on Schedule 13E-3 is filed by Treaty Oak Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”) in connection with its proposed reclassification of all outstanding shares of Company common stock held by record shareholders owning less than 2,500 shares to a new class of Series A Preferred Stock of the Company (the “Reclassification”). Following the Reclassification, the Company will have fewer than 300 shareholders of record of its common stock and will terminate the registration of its common stock under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”).

Filed contemporaneously herewith are (i) the notice of annual meeting of shareholders and a revised preliminary proxy statement (the “Proxy Statement”) and (ii) a revised form of proxy that will accompany the Proxy Statement. The Proxy Statement will be distributed to the Company’s shareholders in connection with the 2008 annual meeting of the shareholders anticipated to be held in February 2008 (the “Meeting”). At the Meeting, the shareholders would be requested to vote on a proposed amendment to the Company’s Articles of Incorporation, which would authorize the new class of Series A Preferred Stock and the Reclassification. The amendment would also grant the shareholders whose shares were converted to Series A Preferred Stock an option to sell such stock received as a result of the Reclassification to the Company at a price of $11.00 per share. The option would expire 30 calendar days following the effective date of the Reclassification.

The Company is filing this Amendment No. 1 to Schedule 13E-3 with the Securities and Exchange Commission contemporaneously with a revised preliminary Proxy Statement filed by the Company pursuant to Regulation 14A of the Exchange Act. As of the date hereof, the Proxy Statement is in preliminary form and is subject to completion or amendment. This Schedule 13E-3 will be further amended to reflect such completion or amendment of the Proxy Statement.

In accordance with General Instruction F to Schedule 13E-3, the information set forth in the Proxy Statement (including the appendices thereto) is incorporated herein by reference in response to Items 1 through 14 of this Schedule 13E-3, in the manner and to the extent specified below. In addition, the Company has incorporated by reference certain financial information contained in its annual report on Form 10-KSB and quarterly report on Form 10-QSB as specified below.

This Amendment No. 1 to Schedule 13E-3 (and the documents that have been incorporated herein by reference) contain certain forward-looking statements and information with respect to the financial condition, results of operations, and business of the Company. These forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve risks and uncertainties and are based on the beliefs and assumptions of management of the Company and on information available to management at the time that these disclosures were prepared. These statements might be identified by the use of words like “expect,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” and “believe,” variances of these words and other similar expressions. You should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements, which reflect management’s view only on the date hereof. A number of important factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements.
