I had to run from shell:
sudo apt-get --reinstall install grub-efi-amd64=2.02~beta2-22ubuntu1 grub-efi-amd64-bin=2.02~beta2-22ubuntu1 grub-common=2.02~beta2-22ubuntu1 grub2-common=2.02~beta2-22ubuntu1 grub-efi-amd64-signed
sudo apt-mark hold grub-efi-amd64 grub-efi-amd64-bin grub-common grub2-common
It's just a temporary fix, grub-efi-amd64-signed package must be updated
ASAP.

Title:
grub-efi-amd64-signed Forced Uninstall Causes Boot Failure
Status in grub2-signed package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
Yesterday, I tried to run an apt-get install when it said it could continue because of some "partial" something or other and I noticed it wanted to remove "grub-efi-amd64-signed".
I went ahead and let it update on it's own as it desired.
Then a little while ago I had to reboot for an unrelated reason, but I
find myself no longer able to boot. Not just not able to boot, but
there is no GRUB or EFI shell.
Boot-Repair from Live CD wouldn't complete due to "purge cancelled" for "grub-efi-amd64-signed".
While in Live-CD, I'd chroot to my system and run "grub-install" and "update-grub", and while they both succeeded, nothing had changed on boot.
I ended up disabling Secure Boot for now, but wanted to let you know
something went horribly wrong.
