Certain of Keane's Executives Adopt 10b5-1 Trading Plan

HOUSTON

Keane Group, Inc. ("Keane") (NYSE:FRAC) today announced that Mr. James Stewart, its Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, and Mr. Greg Powell, its President and Chief Financial Officer, each recently adopted a prearranged trading plan in accordance with guidelines specified by Rule 10b5-1 under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, as well as Keane’s insider trading policy.

Rule 10b5-1 allows officers and directors to adopt written, prearranged stock trading plans when they are not in possession of material non-public information. Once established, officers do not retain or exercise any discretion over sales of stock under the plan and the pre-planned trades can be executed at a later date as prescribed by the plan in order to diversify the plan participant’s investment portfolio, without regard to any subsequent material non-public information that the plan participant may receive. The transactions under these plans will be disclosed publicly through Form 144 and Form 4 filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The purpose of the plans is to provide Mr. Stewart and Mr. Powell, who receive substantial portions of their compensation in the form of equity awards, with the ability to sell vested shares periodically in an orderly manner and to avoid concerns about the timing of those transactions. Under the terms of the plans, purchases can be made from time to time starting April 18, 2018 through December 31, 2018 and may be amended in accordance with the plan.
