As an online company, we believe we have a relatively low impact on the environment but recognise that as with any commercial enterprise, the day-to-day running of our business will inevitably have consequences. We are fully committed to minimising the effects our operations may have on the environment. We aim to review our procedures on a regular basis to assess the possible impact of our business practices and to determine where improvements can be made in a cost-effective way.

PartyGaming complies with and aims to exceed applicable environmental laws, regulations and industry standards in all of the countries in which it operates.

Implementation of ISO standards

In 2006 PartyGaming began implementing the ISO 14000 series of standards dealing with environmental management. These standards provide management tools that will enable the Group to monitor and improve its environmental performance. In particular, it is expected that the implementation of these standards will help to ensure that PartyGaming:

• continues to develop and maintain a suitable environmental policy;
• establishes a high level environmental management system setting out responsibilities, authorities, relationships, functions, processes, practices, procedures and resources;
• identifies the most significant environmental aspects of PartyGaming's past, present and future activities, products and services;
• clarifies and respects all legal and regulatory requirements in relation to the environment;
• sets appropriate environmental objectives and targets;
• creates and builds on existing processes to ensure that environmental objectives and targets are met; and
• continually monitors and improves the environmental management system.

Recycling

We are committed to the introduction of more recycling programmes throughout our businesses and wherever practicable materials such as paper, computer equipment and printer consumables are already recycled.

Energy consumption

With a limited number of office locations and total staff numbers of approximately 1,200 worldwide, the Group's total energy consumption is small when compared with many other global businesses. However, the Group has taken a number of steps to ensure that this is kept to a minimum wherever possible:

• air conditioning and other electrical systems are turned off when not required, such as late at night or at weekends;
• energy efficient light sources are fitted in many of our offices and we are looking at introducing them across all of our facilities; and
• computers, monitors and other electrical equipment are switched off outside of working hours to avoid wastage.

Travel

As an international business with offices in a number of locations, there is a need for employees to travel between offices as well as to other territories as part of our day-to-day business activities. However, whenever practicable, e-mail, video and teleconferencing facilities are used to avoid non-essential air travel. Staff are encouraged to use public transport where practical and the Group does not have a company car scheme.

During 2007, PartyGaming intends to put in place a number of other travel-related initiatives including:

• building a carbon footprint for the organisation and developing an action plan to reduce carbon emissions; and
• assessing the environmental advantages of replacing company-owned vehicles in Gibraltar with energy efficient hybrid models, as and when they become due for renewal.

Suppliers

We aim to work with quality suppliers and also to encourage them to adopt a similar approach to our own regarding low impact environmental policies and principles.
