Governance and interests

Oklo scheme booklet cross-reference errors were treated as minor and scheme approved

2022 scheme process; judgment 7 September 2022 · documented · low materiality

In 2022, as Oklo company secretary, Martino swore an affidavit about scheme-booklet availability and shareholder queries. The Supreme Court identified minor cross-reference errors, found that the booklet remained substantially in its approved form, and approved the B2Gold scheme; the Court said nothing indicated a material disclosure shortfall and found no evidence of minority oppression. This is a resolved procedural issue, not a finding of personal wrongdoing.

Attribution: Role overlaps event; causation unproven. Her affidavit documented distribution/access facts; the Court identified the errors but did not attribute them to her personally.

Relevance: Relevant to company-secretarial experience and disclosure governance; court resolution materially limits the significance of the cross-reference issue.

Re Oklo Resources Ltd (No 2) [2022] WASC 313 (Reasons at [159], [270]–[276], [315]–[323])

Suitability for the current role

Public evidence of fit for Company Secretary

Current role and prior career as stated by issuer · analyst inference · medium materiality

Stellar announced Martino’s Company Secretary appointment effective 1 December 2024. The issuer reports 15+ years of listed-company secretarial, accounting and corporate advisory work, previous Big Four experience in Perth, London and Sydney, BCom from UWA, CA ANZ, FINSIA and FGIA. Her prior roles included a private-company CFO role, government business-case reviews and corporate finance compliance/capital raisings. In the 2022 Oklo/B2Gold scheme, she filed an affidavit about shareholder document availability and queries; the Court noted minor cross-reference errors in the booklet but held they did not invalidate the scheme and found no evidence of minority oppression or material disclosure shortfall. This documents an administrative issue and its judicial resolution, not personal misconduct.

Attribution: Responsibility not applicable. This is an analyst role-fit judgment based on the cited role and issuer-reported experience; it does not assign personal responsibility for company outcomes.

Relevance: Relevant to the current Company Secretary role, with evidence quality constrained by the source scope.
