KLR Keller Group Plc

For immediate release 30 July 2014

                  Keller Group plc ("Keller" or the "Group")

Keller Group plc announces that it is to make a £30 million exceptional charge
in its 2014 half year results in respect of a dispute arising on a project that
Keller's UK subsidiary, Keller Limited, completed in 2008.

The dispute relates to purported defects in a floor slab at a warehouse for
which Keller Limited undertook the design and construction of the piling. These
purported defects are alleged by other parties to be due, in part at least, to
deficiencies in the provision of Keller's services.

The claims intimated against Keller Limited, which are currently the subject of
litigation, are denied and being vigorously defended. However, the Board has
determined that, given the uncertainties inherent in any litigation, it would
be appropriate to record an exceptional charge of £30 million in the Group's
2014 half year results. The amount is stated before taking account of
recoveries under applicable insurances which are yet to be agreed, as these
cannot be recognised under IFRS. The Group will update the market on future
developments when necessary.

Keller will announce its half-year results on Monday 4 August 2014.
