EXPLANATORY NOTE

Rollins, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Rollins”, the “Registrant” or the “Company”), is filing this Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 to Registration Statement on Form S-8 to deregister certain securities originally registered by the Registrant pursuant to its Registration Statement on Form S-8 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on June 13, 2007, File No. 333-143693 (the “2007 Form S-8”), with respect to shares of the Registrant’s common stock, par value $1.00 per share (the “Common Stock”), thereby registered for offer pursuant to the Western Industries Retirement Savings Plan (the “Western Plan”). A total of 1,000,000 shares of Common Stock and an indeterminate amount of interests for issuance under the Western Plan were initially registered under the 2007 Form S-8.

Of the 1,000,000 shares of Common Stock registered under the Western Plan, 66,425.0067 shares of Common Stock have been issued to eligible employees of the Company under the Western Plan. Accordingly, by this Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 to Registration Statement on Form S-8, the Registrant hereby deregisters 933,574.9933 shares of Common Stock and all interests that remain unsold under the Western Plan because its obligation to maintain effectiveness of the 2007 Form S-8 has terminated as a result of the merger of the Western Plan with and into the Rollins 401(k) Savings Plan (the “Plan”) effective November 1, 2022 (the “Plan Merger”). As a result of the Plan Merger, the Company has terminated all offerings of the Company’s securities pursuant to the 2007 Form S-8. No future issuances will be made under the Western Plan.
