                           Introduction
 
This Amendment No. 9 (this “Amendment”) amends and supplements the information set forth in Schedule 13D that was originally filed on September 18, 2008, (the “Schedule 13D”) as amended by Amendment No. 1 previously filed on March 19, 2010, as amended by Amendment No. 2 previously filed on June 11, 2010, as amended by Amendment No. 3 previously filed on September 16, 2010, as amended by Amendment No. 4 previously filed on September 20, 2010, as amended by Amendment No. 5 previously filed on December 2, 2010, as amended by Amendment No. 6 previously filed on March 18, 2011, as amended by Amendment No. 7 previously filed on May 20, 2011, and as amended by Amendment No. 8 previously filed on June 7, 2011, relating to the beneficial ownership of shares of Common Stock by Ronald N. Tutor, the Ronald N. Tutor Separate Property Trust, a California Trust (the "SPT") and the Ronald N. Tutor 2009 Dynasty Trust (the "DT").  Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the respective meanings ascribed to them in the Schedule 13D.
 
This Amendment relates to the disposition of 900,000 shares of Common Stock by the SPT.
 
Except as specifically provided herein, this Amendment does not modify any of the information previously reported in the Schedule 13D.
 
Item 4.       Purpose of Transaction.
 
The following information hereby is added to the existing disclosure:
 
Between August 9, 2011 and August 18, 2011, the SPT disposed of 900,000 shares of Common Stock resulting in a decrease of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by Mr. Tutor by an identical amount.
 
Between August 19, 2011 and September 15, 2011, the SPT intends to dispose of additional shares to generate total proceeds of approximately $12.5 million. The SPT intends to dispose of the additional shares to raise funds to meet commitments associated with Mr. Tutor's personal investments unrelated to the Company.

Other than as described in this Schedule 13D, the Reporting Persons do not have any plan or proposal that relates to or would result in any of the actions described in subparagraphs (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D.
 
Item 5.       Interest in Securities of Issuer

Item 5 hereby is replaced in its entirety with the following:
 
The following information is based on a total of 47,286,104 shares of Common Stock outstanding as of  August 2, 2011, as reported by the Issuer in the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed by the Issuer on August 4, 2011.

 
 

 
 
CUSIP No. 901109 108               SCHEDULE 13D                Page 6 of 8

(a), (b)
 
As of the date hereof, the Reporting Persons may be deemed to have beneficial ownership over shares of Common Stock as set forth below, and each such Reporting Person has sole voting and dispositive power with respect to all shares shown as being beneficially owned by him, except as otherwise indicated.
 
(i)            Mr. Tutor may be deemed to have beneficial ownership of 12,716,155 shares of Common Stock, or 26.9%, with respect to which Mr. Tutor has sole voting power and sole dispositive power over 11,182,900 of such shares.
 
Mr. Tutor may be deemed to have beneficial ownership of 11,182,900 shares of Common Stock owned by the SPT.  Mr. Tutor is the sole beneficiary and trustee of the SPT.  The shares that Mr. Tutor may be deemed to beneficially own also include 1,533,255 shares of Common Stock owned by the DT, of which Mr. Tutor’s issue are the beneficiaries. John Barrett is trustee with sole voting and dispositive power with respect to the Common Stock held by the DT.  Mr. Tutor is the trust advisor to the DT, in which position Mr. Tutor has sole discretion to remove and replace the trustee, as well as the sole authority to reacquire or exchange the property of the DT, including the Common Stock, by substituting property of equal value.
 
(ii)           The SPT may be deemed to have beneficial ownership of 11,182,900 shares of Common Stock, or 23.6%.  Neither the filing of this Schedule 13D nor any of its contents shall be deemed to constitute an admission by the SPT that it is the beneficial owner of any of the Common Stock held by the DT referred to herein for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act, or for any other purpose, and such beneficial ownership is expressly disclaimed.
 
(iii)          The DT may be deemed to have acquired beneficial ownership of 1,533,255 shares of Common Stock, or 3.2%.  The DT has sole or shared voting or dispositive power with respect to such shares of Common Stock; however, the trust advisor to the Reporting Person retains the authority to reacquire the Common Stock from the DT.  Neither the filing of this Schedule 13D nor any of its contents shall be deemed to constitute an admission by the DT that it is the beneficial owner of any of the Common Stock held by the SPT referred to herein for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act, or for any other purpose, and such beneficial ownership is expressly disclaimed.
 
(c)
 
Transactions in the Common Stock effected by the Reporting Persons in the 60 days prior to the date of this Amendment are described in Schedule A and incorporated herein by reference.

(d)
 
Except as described in this Schedule 13D, no person has the power to direct the receipt of dividends on or the proceeds of sales of, the shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons.
 
(e)
 
Not applicable.
