Dear Bob:

We refer to the engagement letter dated November 27, 1996 between Insilco
Corporation (the "Company") and Goldman, Sachs & Co. ("Goldman Sachs") regarding
the possible sale of all or a portion of the Company (the "Engagement Letter"),
as amended by two letters dated July 10, 1997. This letter is intended to amend
and confirm certain mutual understandings with respect to our acting as your
financial advisor in connection with the sale of the Company to Silkworm
Acquisition Corporation, an affiliate of DLJ Merchant Banking Partners II, Inc.
(the "Transaction"), as contemplated by the Engagement Letter.

We will charge a transaction fee of $2,000,000 for advice in connection with the
Transaction, which shall be payable in cash upon consummation of the
Transaction. We hereby confirm our mutual understanding that the third through
the eighth paragraphs of the Engagement Letter shall be inapplicable to the
Transaction. The Engagement Letter shall otherwise remain in effect with respect
to the transactions contemplated thereby, provided that the Engagement Letter
shall be terminated on payment of the transaction fee described above, and the
Company shall have no further fee obligations to Goldman Sachs pursuant to such
Engagement Letter.

In connection with engagements such as this it is our firm policy to receive
indemnification. The Company agrees that the provisions with respect to our
indemnity and other matters set forth in Annex A of the Engagement Letter shall
apply to our engagement pursuant to this letter and any matter contemplated
hereby, subject to the qualifications set forth in the twelfth paragraph of the
Engagement Letter.
