                                    Exhibit A

                               R. Randall Rollins



(a)  The 1996 RWR Investment  Partnership,  L.P.  (RWR),  a Georgia  limited
partnership which owns shares of Rollins, Inc. (ROL) and for which the Reporting
Person is the general partner,  was dissolved.  Prior to the dissolution of RWR,
as general partner of RWR, the Reporting Person reported the indirect  ownership
of all of the ROL shares held by RWR.  The  Reporting  Person is Trustee of 1986
Robert W. Rollins Qualified  Subchapter S Trust (STRST),  the limited partner of
RWR.

     As a result of the  dissolution  of RWR,  ROL  shares  which the  Reporting
Person owned  beneficially  through RWR are now owned  directly by the Reporting
Person. On December 27, 2002, the STRST contributed ROL shares which it received
on dissolution as the limited  partner of RWR, to RWR  Management  Company,  LLC
(RWRLLC), a Georgia limited liability company which is wholly owned by STRST and
for which the Reporting  Person is the Manager.  The STRST also  contributed ROL
shares which it owned directly to RWRLLC. As a result,  the Reporting Person, as
Trustee,  now  indirectly  owns  shares  of ROL  through  RWRLLC,  in which  the
Reporting Person has no pecuniary interest.

     As a result of the  transactions  described above, the number of ROL shares
which the Reporting Person is reporting  direct ownership in has increased,  the
number  of ROL  shares  which the  Reporting  Person is  reporting  as  indirect
ownership  through  RWR has  decreased  and the number of ROL  shares  which the
Reporting  Person is reporting as indirect  ownership as Trustee through RWRLLC,
has increased.  The Reporting Person  disclaims  ownership of the shares held as
Trustee.
