This Annual Report is being filed by State Street Bank and Trust Company, solely

Agreement dated as of October 1, 1996 (the "Trust Agreement") between Lehman
Structured Securities Corp. as depositor ("Registrant") and State Street Bank
and Trust Company, as trustee, pursuant to which Trust Agreement the
Registrant's Commercial Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 1996-1 (the
"Certificates") were issued. Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise
defined shall have the respective meanings ascribed to such terms in the Trust
Agreement.

The information requested by this item is not applicable as the only business of
the Trust formed under the Trust Agreement hereinafter identified is the receipt
of distributions of a portion of the Resolution Trust Corporation Commercial
Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 1994-C1, Class E (the "Underlying
Certificate") held by the Trust, which portion of the Underlying Certificates
are the only assets of the Trust.

The information contained in this Annual Report on Form 10-K has been or is
based on information supplied to the Trustee by third parties without
independent review or investigation by the Trustee and no representation or
warranty of any kind is made by the Trustee with respect to such information.

As used in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, "Not Applicable" or "not applicable"
means that the response to the referenced item is omitted in reliance on the
procedures outlined in numerous no-action letters issued by the Commission's
Staff with respect to substantially similar certificates.

has been set forth in the Prospectus and Prospectus Supplement relating to the
Certificates and filed with the Commission.

Item 3.  Legal Proceedings

of (i) the Trust or (ii) with respect to the Certificates or the Trust, the
Registrant or the Trustee other than ordinary routine litigation, if any,
incidental to the Trustee's or the Registrant's duties under the Trust Agreement
and not material when taken as a whole.

Item 4.  Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders

No matters were submitted to a vote or consent of the holders of the
Certificates during the period covered by this report.

                                     PART II

Item 5.  Market for the Registrant's Common Equity and Related Stockholder
