     On January 30, 1998, Structured Asset Securities Corporation Mortgage
Pass-Through Certificates, Series 1998-2, Class A, M-1, M-2 and B (the

for the benefit of certificateholders pursuant to a trust agreement by and
among Structured Asset Securities Corporation, as depositor, Norwest Bank
Minnesota, National Association, as master servicer, and First Union National
Bank, as trustee. Lehman Brothers Inc., the underwriter, is an affiliate of
the depositor and of Aurora Loan Services Inc., one of the servicers.

- -------------------------

(1)  Delinquency information is for conventional and subprime loans only,
     excluding bankruptcies.
(2)  Percentages are based on the number of mortgage loans.
(3)  A weighted average of the MBS method for conventional loans and the ABS
     method for subprime loans is used in calculation of delinquency
     percentage. Under the MBS methodology, a loan is considered delinquent if
     any payment is past due one or more days. In contrast, under the ABS
     methodology, a loan is considered delinquent if any payment is past due
     30 days or more. The period of delinquency is based upon the number of
     days that payments are contractually past due (assuming 30-day months).
     Consequently, under the ABS methodology, a loan due on the first day of a
     month is not 30 days delinquent until the first day of the next month.
