ITEM 8.01 - OTHER EVENTS

Pure Cycle Corporation learned today that Lend Lease Lowry Range LLC ("Lend Lease") announced it has terminated its development agreement with the Colorado State Board of Land Commissioners (the "Land Board"). Pure Cycle, in partnership with the Rangeview Metropolitan District (the "District") and the Land Board, has the exclusive right to provide water and wastewater services to approximately 24,000 acres of the 27,000-acre State owned Lowry Range; including about one-third of the development parcel.

In December 2006, the Land Board selected Lend Lease as the developer for approximately 4,000 acres of the Lowry Range. The Lowry Range is located in the southeastern Denver metropolitan area in unincorporated Arapahoe County. Since 2006, numerous parties have worked with the Land Board to allow development planning at the Lowry Range to progress, including Arapahoe County, which amended its comprehensive land use plan and obtained urban growth boundary allocation for the property. More recently, Lend Lease sought to change the property's jurisdiction and have the property annexed into the City of Aurora. Pursuant to Aurora's ordinances the City must provide water and wastewater services to all annexed property, which directly conflicts with the 20-year old agreements between Pure Cycle, the District and the Land Board, and jeopardized millions of dollars of future water service royalties which would benefit the School Trust. Pure Cycle and the Land Board worked diligently over the past several months to identify numerous suitable solutions.

"Lend Lease may have had many issues surrounding this development. However, the State's Lowry Range water supplies, which consist of over 30,000 acre feet of drought proof groundwater, over 3,000 acre feet of renewable surface water from two streams which flow through the property, and over 25,000 acre feet of reservoir storage sites, clearly demonstrate that the Lowry Range in fact has a sustainable, cost effective water supply to meet Lend Lease's 3,000 acre feet of water needs," commented Mark Harding, President of Pure Cycle. "With Lend Lease's departure, the Land Board remains positioned to realize the full value from their Lowry Range land and water asset for the benefit of the School Trust," continued Mr. Harding.
