Modern Slavery Statement 2026

PGA European Tour and its subsidiaries, which include (among others) PGA European Tour Productions Limited, (together the "European Tour group") are committed to upholding integrity and sportsmanship as we showcase our diverse global talent. We recognise that modern slavery is a serious crime that violates human rights and we are committed to promoting ethical practices and policies and working proactively with a view to preventing modern slavery and human trafficking within our supply chain or in any part of our business. We seek to impose those same high standards on our consultants, contractors, suppliers and other business partners (together "Suppliers"). In accordance with section 54 of the Modern Slavery Act 2015, we set out below the steps that have been taken by the European Tour group during the financial year ending 31 December 2025 to seek to prevent slavery and human trafficking in our business and supply chain. This Statement covers the six areas recommended in the Home Office's statutory guidance:
1. Organisation structure and supply chains;
2. Policies in relation to modern slavery and human trafficking;
3. Due diligence processes;
4. Risk assessment and management;
5. Key performance indicators to measure the effectiveness of steps being taken; and
6. Training on modern slavery and trafficking.

About the European Tour group, its organisational structure and supply chain

The European Tour group comprises a number of subsidiaries and joint venture entities engaged in the promotion, management and administration of the business, which are managed and controlled as a single entity to achieve its objectives.

Specifically: PGA European Tour is the corporate entity which administers a number of competition brands. In 2025 these were: the DP World Tour, the Hotel Planner Tour, the G4D (Golf for the Disabled) Tour and, in its capacity as Managing Partner of Ryder Cup Europe LLP, The Ryder Cup in association with the PGA of America. It also holds a stake in the corporate entity which administers the Staysure Legends Tour (as it is called at the date of, and hence throughout, this statement (previously the Legends Tour), and provides some services to a number of its tournaments. PGA European Tour is a unique business which generates profits for the benefit of its members - the tournament players - who receive their returns by way of competing for and winning prize money.

PGA European Tour Productions Limited is the corporate entity which produces and distributes coverage of DP World Tour, Hotel Planner Tour, Staysure Legends Tour, Ryder Cup and other golf events. The European Tour group seeks to ensure it has a positive long-term impact on the courses, countries and the communities we visit through 'Golf for Good' and 'Green Drive', the umbrella names for the European Tour group's commitments to environmental and social sustainability.

Organisation Structure and Supply Chain

The 2025 tournament schedules spanned Europe, Africa, Asia and the Middle East with the European Tour group itself responsible for staging tournaments across the DP World Tour, Hotel Planner Tour and Staysure Legends Tour as well as events across the G4D Tour.

When necessary at these events, we employed local temporary staff and volunteers through bona fide recruitment agencies. Tournaments are either sanctioned by PGA European Tour alone or co-sanctioned alongside other international tours, with such tournaments either being
staged and promoted by PGA European Tour or by another international tour or by third party promoters or with the assistance of local delivery partners.

The business is run by a professional staff of around 345 employees (in 2025) within its registered office in Virginia Water, England, and its representative offices and international branches. Supply chains can be cross-border and include Suppliers of products and services required for our commercial, broadcasting and tournament operations. These include,
amongst others, Suppliers of the following products/services:

♦ Audio-visual equipment and services
♦ Broadcasting
♦ Catering products and services
♦ Event infrastructure and fit-out
♦ Consultancy services
♦ Education and training services
♦ Financial services
♦ Health and Safety consultancy
♦ IT equipment/ software/ hardware/
services
♦ Marketing / advertising / design services
♦ Medical treatment/ supplies
♦ Professional services
♦ TV Production
♦ Property management services
♦ Recruitment services
♦ Security services and police
♦ Ticketing and accreditation services
♦ Travel and accommodation services

Policies in relation to Slavery and Human Trafficking

We strive to ensure we have robust commercial agreements, employment contracts, employment and recruitment-related policies and procedures in place which are updated regularly. No form of slavery will be tolerated within our business.

The European Tour group's Procurement Policy sets out our commitment to acting ethically and with integrity in all our business relationships and to implementing and enforcing effective systems and controls to ensure slavery and human trafficking is not taking place anywhere in our supply chains. It outlines our activity in relation to social, environmental and ethical impacts of our supply chain and governs how we manage relationships with Suppliers and what we expect of them in relation to modern slavery and otherwise.

Furthermore, our Green Drive Sustainable Procurement Code evidences a commitment to achieving the highest possible 'net positive' social and environmental impact, including a commitment in relation to labour practices. Since its initiation, Suppliers (though not yet all Suppliers) are contractually required to adhere to the Code, a copy of which is available on the European Tour website.

Our Whistleblowing Policy details how to report any suspected breach securely and anonymously if required . All reports are reviewed and investigated and escalated if necessary. The Audit and Risk Committee receive quarterly reports. No reports relating to modern slavery were made via our whistleblowing hotline or otherwise in the 2025 financial
year.

We have a Modern Slavery Guidance Note to ensure any report of modern slavery or human trafficking is dealt with effectively and efficiently by a working group set up for this purpose.

Our standard terms of business include specific obligations upon our Suppliers to comply with all applicable laws and implement due diligence procedures in relation to their own suppliers, subcontractors and other participants in its supply chains, to ensure there is no slavery or human trafficking in their supply chains. In sponsorship agreements, we include a specific obligation to comply with the Modern Slavery Act 2015.

In addition to these terms, which we endeavour to incorporate in all relevant contracts, we continue to review our purchasing procedures as set out in the section below.

A copy of our policies may be requested from the Chief Legal Officer.

Risk Assessment and Management and Due Diligence Processes.

As part of the European Tour group's efforts to monitor and reduce the risk of slavery and human trafficking occurring within our supply chains, we understand we should adopt robust risk assessment and due diligence procedures and we continue to work towards this goal. We recognise there may be markets in which our Suppliers operate that are more vulnerable to adverse practices than others and we take seriously the need for greater scrutiny regarding such Suppliers.

The Procurement team has a key focus on Supplier database management and ensuring relevant due diligence is completed.

In 2025, we continued to manage this via our source-to-contract software Workday Strategic Sourcing, giving us the opportunity to standardise and transform our Supplier onboarding (including OFAC Sanction List screening) and ongoing Supplier management for our critical Suppliers. We have the ability to screen entities and their group structure via use of our risk analytics (compliance intelligence) tool; any adverse media, or other compliance alerts would be flagged for internal consideration and risk assessment. This enables continuous automated monitoring for contracted Suppliers above a de minimis threshold.

We discontinued the review of third-party sustainability-focussed software, to integrate into our source-to-contract software, however the questionnaire is still available to be used if needed.

Concerns raised by our procurement and due diligence processes are reviewed to ascertain the risk involved and the actions to take in the given situation with further investigation if required, including asking the Supplier to make a positive written affirmation that (i) they do not; and (ii) their direct supply chain does not, endorse, enable or facilitate human
trafficking or slavery within their business. If a Supplier cannot provide the relevant documentation or affirmations to satisfy the Procurement team, they will be marked as a high-risk Supplier, and all efforts will be made to review and on board alternate Suppliers that do have the relevant policies and procedures in place.

Our procurement team remains engaged in refining how we collect, analyse and act on ESG data, ensuring our supply chain reflects our corporate values and legal obligations. We are committed to continually improving our processes and leveraging technology to promote
ethical sourcing practices.

Where we implement RFP processes, all new potential vendors as part of that process will be required to submit ESG policy/documentation . Failure to provide sufficient documentation will result in the potential vendor's bid not being considered within the tender.

Additional due diligence may also be undertaken by way of a physical audit/inspection of the new Supplier if deemed necessary to satisfy the European Tour group that the Supplier is operating to the required standard.

We have a working process for validating potential new partners/sponsors by detailing a process-flow and introducing specific signoffs if a potential partner flags a risk in our duediligence process on our third-party due diligence software.

Key performance indicators to measure effectiveness of steps being taken.

To assess the effectiveness of the measures we take, we regularly review our policies and procedures in relation to modern slavery and human trafficking and will include updates on any actions we take in future modern slavery statements. We work to ensure our practices match what is required by law and best practice and this sets the benchmark for effectiveness.

Our goals are set out in this statement and achievement of these assist us in measuring our performance and progress and providing the framework for working towards enhanced systems.
In 2025 we continued regular monitoring of our supply cha in including review meetings focussed on policing compliance.

Training and awareness raising

Modern slavery training is included in our suite of compliance training sessions across all employees with formal training provided to all new starters and then refreshed every two years alongside additional awareness as required.

Regular review

We continue to undertake strategic assessment of new Suppliers, partners and sponsors and monitor our supply chain and partner and sponsor portfolios pursuant to our contract approval mechanism.
Corporate, Social Responsibility and Sustainability review.

A working group is responsible for reviewing our impacts on the environment and society to ensure we continue to seek excellence in every aspect of our business; meeting our business requirements while minimising the social, environmental and ethical impacts of those
requirements.

Future Steps

We intend to take the following further steps to tackle this issue during the coming financial
year:
♦ continued work towards implementing stronger risk assessment processes, taking account of the physical location of a Supplier and the nature of the goods/ services supplied and with results categorised as high or medium risk triggering investigation;
♦ continued work on risk assessment processes in relation to partners and sponsors;
♦ continued awareness raising for management and colleagues;
♦ continued regular monitoring of our supply chain including review meetings focussed on policing compliance;
♦ continued focus on due diligence in relation to our business and supply chain;
♦ continued work to assess the adequacy of our procedures, atta inment of our goals and future enhancements;
♦ review of contract terms and requirement for specific commitments in relation to Modern Slavery; and
♦ review of the de minimis threshold adequacy in relation to due diligence
requirements.
