Contributions and company outcomes

Company secretary transition at WTM

2025-12-04 to cutoff · documented · low materiality

Waratah’s 2025 annual report states Bill Hundy replaced Richard Willson as Company Secretary effective 4 December 2025, and the current directory continues to list him in the role. The annual report says he is not KMP because he lacks authority/responsibility for planning, directing and controlling entity activities. No company-level outcome has been attributed to him from the title alone.

Attribution: Individual involvement documented. Appointment and current position are expressly stated; no responsibility for WTM exploration or corporate performance is inferred.

Relevance: Confirms role scope for fit and attribution.

Litigation and enforcement

Court-name search resolved to a different person

2020-08-03 · documented · low materiality

A search for “Hundy” in a Federal Court case surfaced Hundy v Kashan [2020] FCA 1101. The judgment reproduction identifies Stephen Hundy as the ACT Land liquidator (paragraph 10); the matter concerns his liquidator role and is not evidence about WTM Company Secretary Bill Hundy. It was excluded as a namesake match after identity review.

Attribution: Responsibility unresolved. The person in the proceeding is expressly named Stephen Hundy; no identity link to Bill Hundy was established.

Relevance: Prevents false attribution of litigation to the executive; no adverse finding about Bill Hundy results from this case.

Suitability for the current role

Listed-company governance and legal experience

At least 2001-2008 at Origin; earlier Email/Placer roles undated; current WTM role from 2025-12-04 · analyst inference · medium materiality

The 2008 Origin target statement states that Hundy joined Origin in July 2001 and was responsible for company secretarial, insurance, legal and compliance functions; before Origin he served as Company Secretary at Email Limited and Placer Pacific Limited. Waratah’s current biography also lists Kidston Gold Mines and more than three decades of listed-company experience. Exact dates for those earlier and subsequent engagements are incomplete.

Attribution: Responsibility not applicable. This is a role-fit inference from contemporaneous corporate disclosure of his duties and experience; no assertion is made that he had responsibility for unrelated employer outcomes.

Relevance: Relevant experience for ASX listing compliance, board processes and company-secretarial functions; complete employment chronology is not available.

Evidence gaps

• Exact periods at Email, Placer Pacific, Kidston Gold Mines, Origin and later corporate-secretarial work are not fully reconstructed.

• The 2008 filing reports law and commerce degrees; current professional memberships are issuer-reported and not independently checked with primary registers.

• Concurrent professional appointments and directorships were not comprehensively searched; the selected 2025 annual report states he is not KMP because his role lacks authority over company operations.

• Open-web adverse searches are scoped and are not exhaustive criminal, sanctions, court, litigation, credential, environmental or regulator checks.
