CHANGES IN REGISTRANT'S CERTIFYING ACCOUNTANTS. On September 24, 2001, Insilco Technologies, Inc. (the "Company") dismissed its current independent auditors, KPMG LLP ("KPMG") and appointed PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP ("PricewaterhouseCoopers") as its new independent auditors for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2001. The decision to dismiss KPMG and to engage PricewaterhouseCoopers was approved by the unanimous vote of the Company's Board of Directors. The reports of KPMG on the consolidated financial statements of the Company for its fiscal years ended December 31, 2000 and December 31, 1999 did not contain any adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles. During the Company's two most recent fiscal years and the subsequent interim periods through June 30, 2001, (i) there were no disagreements between the Company and KPMG on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedure which, if not resolved to the satisfaction of KPMG, would have caused KPMG to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement in connection with its reports (a "Disagreement") and (ii) there were no reportable events, as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K of the Securities and Exchange Commission (a "Reportable Event"). The Company has not, during the Company's two most recent fiscal years or the subsequent interim period through June 30, 2001, consulted with PricewaterhouseCoopers regarding (i) the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company's financial statements, and either a written report was provided to the Company or oral advice was provided that PricewaterhouseCoopers concluded was an important factor considered by the Company in reaching a decision as to the accounting, auditing or financial reporting issue, or (ii) any matter that was either the subject of a Disagreement with KPMG or a Reportable Event. The Company has furnished KPMG with a copy of this Form 8-K and has requested that KPMG furnish it with a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether it agrees with the above statements.
