On December 29, 1995, Insilco Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the
"Company"), filed a registration statement on Form S-8 (Registration No.
33-80971) (the "Registration Statement") with the Securities and Exchange
Commission. The Company filed the Registration Statement to register
participation interests in the Insilco Corporation Employee Thrift Plan (the
"Plan") and 250,000 shares of the Company's common stock, par value $.001 (the
"Shares"). The Shares were included in a Company stock fund, which was an
investment alternative under the Plan. Under the Plan, participants had the
ability to direct the investments of their accounts into several investment
funds, including the Company stock fund.
The Company has determined that it is in the best interest of
participants to remove the Company stock fund as an investment fund under the
Plan. As of the date hereof, a total of 23,583.9745 Shares have been sold
through the Company stock fund, leaving a total of 226,416.0255 Shares unsold.
The Company hereby requests that all unsold Shares be deregistered.
