                            SECTION 8 - OTHER EVENTS

ITEM 8.01 - OTHER EVENTS

Litigation

On September 24, 2009, LPC Investments,  LLC ("LPC  Investments")  filed suit in
the District Court of Jefferson County,  Colorado against Sun River Energy, Inc.
("the  Company").  Among  other  things,  the suit asks  that the Court  issue a
declaratory  judgment in requesting that 2.2 million shares previously purchased
by LPC Investments  (the Disputed  Shares) are indeed owned by LPC  Investments,
and to direct the Company to co-operate with LPC Investment's outstanding legend
removal requests  submitted to the Company's  transfer agent by LPC Investments.
LPC Investments is also seeking payment of attorney fees and costs. In that same
litigation,  on October 2, 2009, the Company filed Counterclaims and Third Party
Claims  in  the  District  Court  of  Jefferson  County,  Colorado  against  LPC
Investments  and Kevin Paul. The claims and the relief sought by the Company are
substantially  similar to the claims and relief previously sought in the Douglas
County litigation.

Following a hearing on October 9, 2009,  the District Court denied the Company's
notion to compel LPC  Investments to deliver the Disputed Shares to the Company,
and issued  findings  relating to an option  contract  that existed  between the
Company  and LPC  Investments.  Among  other  things,  the Court  found that the
Company  was in  material  breach  of the  contract  as March 1, 2009 and that a
material breach  deprives the breaching part of the right to demand  performance
from the other party.

On October 2, 2009 and September 28, 2009, the Company filed a Current Report on
Form 8K with the  Securities  and Exchange  Commission  (SEC) that disclosed the
initial  litigation  filings.  Such filing can be found on the SEC's  website at
www.sec.gov.
