SIGNATURE OF REPORTING PERSON
/s/ R. Randall Rollins, by Glenn P. Grove, Jr.
R. Randall Rollins, by Glenn P. Grove, Jr.
DATE
December 30, 2002
<PAGE>
                                    Exhibit A

                               R. Randall Rollins


(a)  The  1996  RWR  Investment  Partnership,  L.P.  (RWR),  a  Georgia  limited
     partnership  which  owns  shares  of RPC,  Inc.  (RPC)  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 RPC 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,  RPC  shares  which the  Reporting
     Person  owned  beneficially  through  RWR are  now  owned  directly  by the
     Reporting  Person.  On December 27, 2002, the STRST  contributed RPC 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 RPC shares which it owned directly to RWRLLC. As
     a result,  the Reporting Person, as Trustee,  now indirectly owns shares of
     RPC  through  RWRLLC,  in  which  the  Reporting  Person  has no  pecuniary
     interest.

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