Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement. On August 14, 2026, Renergen Limited (the “Borrower”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of ASP Isotopes Inc. (the “Company”), entered into a Second Amendment and Restatement Agreement (the “Second Amendment”) with The Standard Bank of South Africa Limited (the “Lender”).
