These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Plan as of December 31, 1997 and 1996, and the changes in net assets available for benefits with fund information for the years ended December 31, 1997 and 1996 in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. Our audits were performed for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental schedules of assets held for investment purposes and reportable transactions are presented for the purpose of additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic financial statements but are supplementary information required by the Department of Labor's Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. The fund information in the statements of changes in net assets available for plan benefits is presented for purposes of additional analysis rather than to present the changes in net assets available for plan benefits of each fund. The supplemental schedules and fund information have been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audits of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, are fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

Participants should refer to the booklet entitled Employee Thrift Plan for a description of the Plan, a copy of which is available to each participant from the Plan Administrator. (a) GENERAL The Plan is a defined-contribution plan covering substantially all nonunion and certain union employees of Insilco Corporation (Insilco) and of participating subsidiaries and divisions of Insilco (the Employers). Employees who have completed six months of service are eligible for membership. The Plan is administered by the Pension Committee of the Board of Directors of Insilco (Plan Administrator) and is subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA). (b) CONTRIBUTIONS AND FORFEITURES Each year participants may contribute up to 10% of their pretax annual compensation, as defined in the Plan. The Employers make a matching contribution equal to 50% of the first 3% of annual compensation contributed by the Plan participants. Additionally, the Employers, at their discretion, may make profit sharing contributions to eligible participants. Contributions are subject to certain limitations. In 1997 and 1996, certain highly compensated employees exceeded contributions limitations and were refunded $77,857 and $187,753, respectively, in the following Plan year. These amounts are disclosed as participants' contributions payable in the statements of net assets available for benefits and as a reduction in participants' contributions in the statements of changes in net assets available for benefits with fund information. Forfeitures of nonvested profit sharing account balances may be used to pay administrative expenses or shall be allocated as an additional profit sharing contribution in the Plan year following the forfeiture. Forfeitures of nonvested employer matching contribution account balances may be used to pay administrative expenses or to reduce the Employers' future contributions. (c) PARTICIPANT ACCOUNTS Each participant's account is credited with the participant's contributions, the Employers' matching and profit sharing contributions, an allocation of investment earnings and charged with an allocation of administrative expense. Allocations are based on participant earnings or account balances, as defined. Profit sharing contributions are based on the participant's annual compensation. The benefit to which a participant is entitled is the benefit that can be provided from the participant's vested account. (d) VESTING A participant is vested immediately in his or her contributions and any related investment earnings and vests in the Employers' matching contributions and related investment earnings according to the schedule below: =============================================================== Completed Years of Service Vested Percentage --------------------------------------------------------------- Less than 2 years 0% 2 years but less than 3 25% 3 years but less than 4 50% 4 years but less than 5 75% 5 years or more 100% =============================================================== 5 9 INSILCO CORPORATION EMPLOYEE THRIFT PLAN Notes to Financial Statements ================================================================================ (e) INVESTMENT OPTIONS Upon enrollment in the Plan, a participant may direct contributions into any of the following investment options, excluding the JPM Pierpont Diversified Fund: o TWENTIETH CENTURY INTERNATIONAL FUND--Funds are invested in shares of a registered investment company that invests mainly in common stocks of foreign companies. o TWENTIETH CENTURY ULTRA FUND--Funds are invested in shares of a registered investment company that invests mainly in common stocks of domestic companies. o AMERICAN CENTURY VALUE FUND--Funds are invested in shares of a registered investment company that invests mainly in common stocks of domestic companies. o MASTERWORKS S&P 500 STOCK FUND--Funds are invested in shares of a registered investment company that invests in the common stocks of the S&P 500. o BENHAM PREMIUM BOND FUND--Funds are invested in shares of a registered investment company that invests in longer-term bonds and other debt instruments. o BENHAM PREMIUM GOVERNMENT RESERVE FUND--Funds are invested in shares of a registered investment company that invests in bonds of the U.S. governments and its agencies. o COMPANY STOCK FUND--Funds are invested in the common stock of Insilco Corporation. o CHARLES SCHWAB INDIVIDUALLY DIRECTED RETIREMENT ACCOUNT--Participants with at least $2,500 may elect to self-direct the investment of part or all of his/her account. o JPM PIERPONT DIVERSIFIED FUND--Funds are invested in a balanced portfolio containing shares of a registered investment company that invests in common stocks of domestic and international companies and fixed-income securities. Investments in the JPM Pierpont Diversified Fund consistent solely of non-participant directed profit sharing contributions. Additionally, participant's who are represented by the United Steelworkers of America Local No. 3875 are not able to contribute into the Company Stock Fund or Charles Schwab Individually Directed Retirement Account. (f) PAYMENTS OF BENEFITS On termination of service due to retirement on or after age 65, disability or death, a participant will become fully vested with his/her account. If a portion of a participant's account is related to contributions made before January 1, 1996, the participant may elect to receive that portion of his/her account in the form of a single lump-sum payment, a single life annuity, a joint and 50% survivor annuity, or a joint and 100% survivor annuity. The portion of a participant's account that is related to contributions made after January 1, 1996 will automatically be paid in the form of a lump sum payment. A participant's beneficiary will receive the participant's account balance in the event of a participant's death. Employees may withdraw their vested interest in the Plan under certain hardship conditions, as defined in the Plan. Terminated participants will be paid their vested interest in the Plan. (f) PARTICIPANT LOANS Participants who are not represented by the United Steelworkers of America Local No. 3875 may borrow from their accounts. The maximum amount a participant may borrow is equal to the lesser of (a) 50% of his/her vested account, or (b) $50,000 reduced by the highest outstanding balance of a loan outstanding during the previous 12-month period. The minimum amount a participant may borrow is $1,000. Interest on the loan is equal to 1% above the prime rate published in the Wall Street Journal on the last day of the (Continued) 6 10 INSILCO CORPORATION EMPLOYEE THRIFT PLAN Notes to Financial Statements ================================================================================ month before the loan is requested. The loan must be repaid in equal installments each regular pay period amortized over a term of no more than 5 years (or 10 years if the loan is for the purchase of a principal residence), and is secured by a pledge on the nonborrowed portion of a participant's account. (2) SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (a) BASIS OF PRESENTATION The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting. (b) INVESTMENT VALUATION AND INCOME RECOGNITION Investments are stated at fair value, as determined by quoted market prices, which represent the net asset value of shares held by each investment fund of the Plan at year-end. Cost is determined using the average cost method. Purchases and sales of securities are recorded on a trade-date basis. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. Dividends are recorded on the ex-dividend date. (c) PAYMENT OF BENEFITS Benefits are recorded when paid. (d) USE OF ESTIMATES The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of changes in net assets available for benefits during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. 3) INVESTMENTS The following table presents investments at fair value which represent 5% or more of the Plan's net assets: ==================================================================================================================== 1997 1996 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Twentieth Century Ultra Fund; 368,231 shares in 1997 (289,805 shares in 1996) $10,052,697 8,140,610 Twentieth Century International Fund; 226,223 shares in 1997 (179,729 shares in 1996) 1,852,768 1,430,639 American Century Value Fund; 761,060 shares in 1997 (652,997 shares in 1996) 5,289,367 4,303,251 Masterworks S&P 500 Stock Fund; 265,704 shares in 1997 (236,841 shares in 1996) 5,417,691 3,768,137 Benham Premium Government Reserve Fund; 3,827,427 shares in 1997 (3,612,419 shares in 1996) 3,827,427 3,612,419 JPM Pierpont Diversified Fund; 1,305,639 shares in 1997 17,848,098 - ==================================================================================================================== (Continued) 7 11 INSILCO CORPORATION EMPLOYEE THRIFT PLAN Notes to Financial Statements ================================================================================ (4) PLAN TERMINATION Although it has not expressed any intent to do so, the Employers have the right under the Plan to discontinue its contributions at any time and to terminate the Plan subject to the provisions of ERISA. In the event of a Plan termination, participants will become fully vested in their accounts. (5) TAX STATUS OF THE PLAN The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) has determined and informed the Company by a letter dated December 15, 1995, that the Plan is designed in accordance with applicable sections of the Internal Revenue Code (IRC). The Plan has been amended since receiving that determination letter. The plan administrator has been informed by the IRS that a favorable determination was made; however, a current determination letter has yet to be received. The plan administrator believes the Plan is designed and is currently being operated in compliance with the applicable requirements of the IRC. During 1992, the Employers discovered that certain employees who were eligible for participation in the Plan were inadvertently excluded from notification of their eligibility to participate in the Plan. The Employers notified the IRS of the failure to notify these employees of their eligibility to participate, and asked for their assistance in curing the error under the Voluntary Compliance Resolution Program (VCR Program). In December 1994, the IRS notified Insilco that it was no longer eligible to participate in the VCR Program. Insilco subsequently requested a district office of the IRS to consider this matter under its "Walk-In" Closing Agreement Program. Insilco reached a settlement with the IRS which requires the Employers to make additional contributions to the Plan with respect to the employees erroneously excluded from participation in the Plan. The Employers paid $863,141 in 1997 and will pay an additional $184,991 during 1998 under the settlement agreement. The Plan and the Plan administrator believe that the Plan's tax exempt status will not be affected and, accordingly, no provision for federal income taxes in the accompanying financial statements has been made. (6) RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS The Plan's investments consist of seven mutual funds and one company stock fund. Of the seven mutual funds, five (Twentieth Century International Fund, Twentieth Century Ultra Fund, American Century Value Fund, Benham Premium Bond Fund, and Benham Premium Government Reserve Fund) are managed by American Century Corporation Services. American Century Corporation Services is the recordkeeper of the Plan, and Insilco is the sponsor of the Plan; therefore, these transactions qualify as party-in-interest. (7) PLAN AMENDMENT AND MERGERS Effective January 1, 1996, the employees of Thermalex, Inc. became eligible to participate in the Plan. In 1996, net assets of $250,673 were transferred into the Plan from the Thermalex, Inc. Employee Thrift Plan 401(k). Effective January 1, 1997, the Thrift Plan was amended and restated primarily to (a) add a new profit sharing component, (b) provide special provisions for transferred profit sharing accounts, (c) revise how limits on participants elective deferrals and matching contributions are calculated, (d) enable employees represented by the United Steelworkers of America Local No. 3875 to participate in the Plan, and (e) make other mandated changes to reflect legislative changes. As a result of these design changes, net assets totaling $17,746,089 were transferred during 1997 from the existing profit sharing plans for Stewart Connector Systems, Inc., Stewart Stamping Corporation, Thermal Components Division, Inc., Romac Metals, Inc., and General Thermodynamics, Inc. into the Plan. 8 12 INSILCO CORPORATION Schedule I EMPLOYEE THRIFT PLAN EIN: 06-0635844 Plan Number: 333 Line 27(a) - Schedule of Assets Held for Investment Purposes December 31, 1997 ==================================================================================================================================== (a) (b) (c) (d) (e) - ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Identity of issue, Description of investment including borrower, lessor, maturity date, rate of interest, Current or similar party collateral, par or maturity value Cost value - ------------ -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- * American Century Ultra Fund; 368,231 shares $10,243,899 10,052,697 * American Century International Fund; 226,223 shares 1,850,950 1,852,768 * American Century Value Fund; 761,060 shares 4,881,686 5,289,367 * American Century Government Reserve Fund; 3,827,427 shares 3,827,427 3,827,427 * American Century Premium Bond Fund; 106,567 shares 1,080,966 1,081,655 Barclays PLC Bank S&P 500 Stock Fund; 265,704 shares 4,017,948 5,417,691 J.P.
