Rank Holding España, S.A., with registered office at Calle Balmes 268-270, is the holding company belonging to the Rank Group, hereinafter referred to as "Rank", "the Company" or "Enracha", which manages 9 bingo halls in Spain.

The Rank Group is a leading company in Europe in the gaming sector, operating in the United Kingdom and Spain through casinos, bingo halls and online gaming platforms. Since its beginnings in the film world in 1937,. The Group has remained faithful to the mission of bringing millions of people the fun and entertainment that characterise the Group's business model.

The Rank Group is listed on the stock exchange of London. The Group has been operating in Spain since 1994.

Rank operates in Spain under the trade name Enracha managing 9 bingo halls in three regions of Spain.

2.2. Description of the business model

Enracha is one of the leading operators on the Spanish market of one of the private gaming sub-sectors; it has very well-established positions in the most attractive markets and cities in the country through a portfolio of very high-quality clubs.

Enracha offers its customers a very powerful gaming and leisure activity thanks to the possibility for customers to be able to play bingo, all kinds of slot machines, online roulette and sports betting in a comfortable setting and providing a high-quality gastronomic offer with an excellent quality-price ratio. It focuses on the search for a corporate strategy to ensure its consolidation on highly attractive selected markets and a commercial strategy aimed

at improving its offer to customers and their experience.

Our vision is to offer a global entertainment option based in an excellent service and

a responsible and innovative gambling offering to create great moments of fun and excitement for our customers

Due to the regulatory environment and the different rules for each region where Enracha operates, the contribution to growth and profile of each product and game varies from region to region and club to club.

Enracha has developed a flexible approach in order to quickly adapt to the changes taking place on local markets, at the same time benefiting from diversification of the regulatory risk and its capacity to apply the best practices and coordinate key services, such as procurement, among a larger number of clubs.

Its strategy is to implement a commercial policy based on three focal points:

  • Offering the best service quality to its existing clientele
  • Enhancing its employees' motivation
  • Conducting an in-depth analytical cost control that helps the management adopt the most suitable decisions.

In addition, the service quality can be divided into five key pillars: customer relations, responsible gambling, an attractive catering service and pleasant comfortable facilities and an innovative product.

Enracha's approach focuses on consumers for the operational management of its clubs that reflects the importance placed on them and the benefits that this approach can imply in order to be considered as the preferred entertainment option for our customers. Enracha and the management team, considers that the importance placed on consumers and the initiatives obtained from this is one of its main differentiating factors compared with competitors and is hence a strategic priority.

Promoted by the operational management team at the company's headquarters, the

commercial strategy encompasses and involves all the functioning aspects of a club, including its design, the sizing of our staff and structure of the team as well as other aspects, such as promotional and marketing policies. The wide areas covered mean that Enracha has developed an integrated strategy to deal with how customers' needs are covered and how the employees' roles are assigned to provide the appropriate offer to customers. Enracha believes that this integrated approach focussed on customers enables its clubs to retain their leading positions on the relevant local markets and promotes its overall growth.

3.1. Environmental management approach

Rank has undertaken a commitment to protect the environment and promote sustainability. Its priority is to adopt preventive measures related to the impact on the environment of its activities, products and services.

Due to the activity carried out by Rank, it has no certified environmental management system; however it applies measures to reduce its environmental impact:

  • Encouraging responsible conduct among its workers by using natural resources and applying good practices
  • Efficient waste management with approved managers
  • Minimising the use of water, energy and paper
  • Undertaking a food safety commitment, complying with the regulations in force related to health conditions in all our establishments and implementing correct hygiene, recycling and staff training practices.
  • Conducting regular audits during which it is verified that the regulations related to health and hygiene are fulfilled.

In general terms, Enracha does not emit large quantities of harmful gases into the atmosphere; it generates low quantities of organic or non-recyclable waste.

Enracha has set up a series of control processes aimed at increasing the recycling

capacity of its waste, such as the following:

  1. Depositing used boxes in waste bins to be subsequently recycled.
  2. Separate waste bins for depositing organic and non-organic waste to be subsequently recycled
  3. Providing waste paper bins

Rank has adopted measures to minimise energy use and has set up a series of control processes aimed at increasing the recycling capacity of its waste, such as the following:

  • Depositing used boxes in waste bins to be subsequently recycled.
  • Separate waste bins for depositing organic and non-organic waste to be subsequently recycled

  • Complying with and controlling recycling processes of more specific materials

The company has undertaken commitment to food safety, complying with the regulations in force related to the health conditions in all our establishments and implementing correct hygiene, recycling and staff training practices.

3.4. Climate change

The main emissions are from the use of electricity and gasoil for air-conditioning purposes (minimum use).

The measures adopted to reduce energy use are i) installing LED light bulbs, ii) LED televisions in all the clubs and iii) in order to reduce the use of paper, we are minimising the use of paper signs in the clubs as much as possible and instead we are using TV screens for communication and QR codes for the catering menu.

All our facilities are fitted with carpeting in order to reduce the acoustic inconveniences that could be caused by the activity as much as possible and to improve our customers' experience.

Attracting and recruiting talent are fundamental pillars in Enracha.

The human resources policy is aimed at applying the best practices in fields such as professional development, training, work environment or career plans.

One of the most important commitments for the Enracha Group is equal opportunities with no discrimination for ideological, gender, physical or mental reasons, for such purpose we have drawn up equal opportunities plans for the various companies belonging to the group.

One of the ways that equal treatment can be ensured is to make the promotion and advancement processes completely objective. These processes are based on internal training schemes that the employees take part in due to either their talent being detected in the performance assessments conducted every year or else they are employees who freely and voluntarily decide to enrol in these training schemes. This participation ensures non-
