Termination of a Material Definitive Agreement
On February 13, 2023, Astra Energy Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with 1800 Diagonal Lending LLC, (“1800 Diagonal”) for the purchase by 1800 Diagonal from the Company of a Convertible Promissory Note (“Promissory Note”) in the aggregate principal amount of $69,250. As of August 1, 2023, 1800 Diagonal has not converted the Promissory Note and no shares of common stock have been issued by the Company in connection with the Promissory Note.
Effective August 7, 2023, prepayment has been made in full on the Promissory Note by Trimark Capital Partners Inc. ("Trimark"), a wholly owned corporation of the Company's CEO, Ron Loudoun. The payment by Trimark to 1800 Diagonal is considered a loan to the Company (the "Loan") by Trimark Capital Partners Inc. The Loan is structured as a non-convertible, non-interest baring shareholder loan. The Company's balance sheet is now free from any convertible or dilutive debt.

Tda still won't let me touch it. Hopefully that changes soon
ECSL Dear Shareholders,
Following up on Shareholders Update last month, we continue to make great progress with the environmental group that was hired by our lender to analyze the complex condition on one of the parcels that we are purchasing. It took nearly 1 year for our own environmental team of experts to analyze the properties, so this time with a third-party doing their due diligence, although frustratingly longer than any of us want, it can be judged as “understood.” As mentioned also last month, CyberFuels has provided the necessary information requested, and sometimes that adds to further questions, but we have recently added an environmental insurance package and “environmental cash escrow” for the lender’s benefit which we feel will eliminate any risk and get us promptly to closing. The other work (Title, Loan Agreements, etc.) has been completed, so like our seller’s attorney said to Ron and me last week when we met him in Tampa, “Come hell or high water, we’re going to get this done.” With the progress made as stated, we expect that the closing is eminent and expect to make an announcement on the closing of the properties in a national Press Release as soon as the transaction is completed.
More terrific news continues to come in from our 2 additives sales teams across the US and Canada. While new tests are underway with 3 new firms, the completed tests with the large mid-west firm last month provided outstanding results and they have begun telling other trucking firms of their results. In particular, the additive blending unit which is affixed to the trucks’ cabs has led to discussions with one of the largest truck-leasing companies in the world to attach the blenders to their truck fleet (over several hundred thousand trucks worldwide). Word of mouth and these types of positive sales relationships caused us to hire Jeff Porter full-time with CyberFuels, and we are delighted that he has joined the CyberFuels staff as the “Director – Additives Division” to help support all the sales initiatives that CyberFuels continues to build very profitably.
Another independent test that we’ve authorized, and which will begin in August, is with a division of an international company whereby Dynamo™ will be tested at a closed course with 3 trucks at Auburn University. This international firm’s division has a device that measures and records a truck’s engine performance in seconds, and with Dynamo’s outstanding performance benefits with individual trucking firms, we’re excited to see the engine data with very detailed readings and the analysis that that enables. This test will also include a traditional SAE Type II fuel economy test alongside the engine data collection. We expect the test data results, the drone video, and the photos to be an instrumental marketing tool of Dynamo™ for the months and years ahead.
I would also encourage you to view this podcast from Andy Hedrick, owner of Trucking Tower, which is an excellent analysis of the performance of his team and the outstanding benefits of Dynamo™:
Back in with a starter today
Cautiously optimistic it happens this time.
Reminds me of that statement "herding kittens".
Thanks.
When is this going to close (exchange occur)? thanks

Scientists discover lithium replacement that may revolutionize EV batteries: ‘99.7% efficient after over 400 hours of use’
https://www.yahoo.com/news/scientists-discover-lithium-replacement-may-111500394.html
Lithium-ion batteries, the common kind found in most of our cellphones and laptops, can take hundreds of thousands of years to break down after they’re used up — not to mention the devastating environmental impact lithium extraction has on our planet.

But these shellfish batteries are biodegradable and can decompose in soil after just five months, leaving behind zinc, which can be recycled.
The University of Maryland’s study also found that chitin-zinc batteries were 99.7% efficient after over 400 hours of use, as reported by The Guardian, and that these batteries could likely be produced cheaply at scale.

Appreciated
Appreciated. Doesn't add up why the stock is so low.
Parents fighting custody battles could be liable for child abuse if they don't "affirm" their kids' gender under the recently amended AB 957. The legislation, if it becomes law, would require judges presiding over such disputes to favor the parent who best "affirms" the minor's preferred identity, though it doesn't outline what "affirmation" includes.
Not to mention cleaning up the balance sheet
