As Representatives of the several Underwriters

Ladies and Gentlemen:

SRFG, Inc. (the "Company"), as originator of Sears Credit Account Master Trust II (the "Trust") and holder of the Seller Certificate, proposes, subject to the terms and conditions stated herein, to cause to be issued and sold from time to time certain of the Master Trust Certificates registered under the registration statement referred to in Section 2(a) (the "Securities"). The Company intends to enter into one or more Pricing Agreements (each a "Pricing Agreement") in the form attached hereto, with such additions and deletions as the parties thereto may determine, and, subject to the terms and conditions stated herein and therein, to issue and sell to the firms named in Schedule 1 to the applicable Pricing Agreement (such firms constituting the "Underwriters" with respect to such Pricing Agreement and the securities specified therein) the Securities specified in such Pricing Agreement (with respect to such Pricing Agreement, the "Designated Securities"). The Designated Securities will be issued by the Trust pursuant to a Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated as of July 31, 1994, as amended (the "Pooling and Servicing Agreement"), as supplemented by a Series Supplement (the "Series Supplement") relating to the specific series of Certificates issued thereunder, by and among the Company as Seller, Sears, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ and Co. ("Sears") as Servicer and The Bank of New York (as successor thereunder to Bank One, National Association, formerly known as The First National Bank of Chicago) as Trustee (the "Trustee"). To the extent not defined herein, the capitalized terms used herein have the meanings assigned in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or the Series Supplement, as the case may be.

1. Particular sales of Designated Securities may be made from time to time to the Underwriters, for whom you will act as representatives. This Underwriting Agreement shall not be construed as an obligation of the Company to sell or cause to be sold any of the

Securities or as an obligation of any of the Underwriters to purchase the Securities. The obligation of the Company to cause to be issued and sold any of the Securities and the obligation of any of the Underwriters to purchase any of the Securities shall be evidenced by the Pricing Agreement with respect to the Designated Securities specified therein. Each Pricing Agreement shall specify the initial principal amount of such Designated Securities, the public offering price of such Designated Securities or the method by which the price at which such Securities will be sold will be determined, the purchase price to the Underwriters of such Designated Securities, the names of the Underwriters of such Designated Securities and the principal amount of such Designated Securities to be purchased by each Underwriter and shall set forth the date, time and manner of delivery of such Designated Securities and payment therefor. The Pricing Agreement shall also describe, in a manner consistent with the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Series Supplement relating to the Designated Securities, and the registration statement and prospectus with respect thereto, the principal terms of such Designated Securities. A Pricing Agreement shall be in the form of an executed writing (which may be in counterparts), and may be evidenced by an exchange of telegraphic communications or any other rapid transmission device designed to produce a written record of communications transmitted. The obligations of the Underwriters under this Agreement and each Pricing Agreement shall be several and not joint.

("Moody's") or Standard & Poor's Ratings Services ("Standard & Poor's"); provided, however, that this subdivision (g) shall not apply to any such rating agencies which shall have notified you of the rating of the Designated Securities prior to the execution of the Pricing Agreement;

(h) Subsequent to the date of the Pricing Agreement relating to such Designated Securities, none of the following shall have occurred (i) the United States shall have become engaged in the outbreak or escalation of hostilities involving the United States or there has been a declaration by the United States of a national emergency or a declaration of war, (ii) a banking moratorium shall have been declared by United States Federal or New York State authorities or a material disruption in securities settlement or clearance services in the United States shall have occurred, (iii) trading in securities generally on the New York Stock Exchange shall have been suspended or limited or minimum prices shall have been established by such Exchange, any of which events, in your judgment, renders it impractical or inadvisable to proceed with the public offering or the delivery of the Designated Securities, or (iv) there shall have been any change in national or international political, legal, tax or regulatory conditions, any of which events, in your judgment, causes a substantial deterioration in the price and/or value of the Designated Securities;

(i) At or prior to the Time of Delivery, the Certificates shall be assigned the ratings by Moody's and Standard & Poor's set forth in the Pricing Agreement;

(j) The Company shall have furnished or caused to be furnished to you at the Time of Delivery for the Designated Securities certificates satisfactory to you as to the accuracy at and as of such Time of Delivery of the representations, warranties and agreements of the Company herein and as to the performance by the Company of all its obligations hereunder to be performed at or prior to such Time of Delivery and the Company shall have also furnished you similar certificates satisfactory to you as to the matters set forth in subdivision (a) of this Section 7; and

(k) Counsel to the Company shall have furnished to the Underwriters a letter stating that the Underwriters may rely on the opinions of such counsel to the Company as delivered to Moody's and Standard & Poor's in connection with the rating of the Securities.

8. (a) The Company and Sears will jointly and severally indemnify and hold harmless each Underwriter against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which such Underwriter may become subject, under the Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any

Preliminary Prospectus, the Registration Statement, any prospectus relating to the Securities or the Prospectus as amended or supplemented, or any amendment or supplement thereto furnished by the Company, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or (in the case of the Registration Statement or the Prospectus as amended or supplemented, or any amendment or supplement thereto) necessary to make the statements therein not misleading or (in the case of any Preliminary Prospectus) necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; and will reimburse each Underwriter for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such Underwriter in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim; provided, however, that neither the Company nor Sears shall be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in any Preliminary Prospectus, the Registration Statement, the Prospectus or the Prospectus as amended or supplemented or any such amendment or supplement in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by any Underwriter of Designated Securities through you expressly for use in the Prospectus as amended or supplemented relating to such Securities; and provided, further, that neither the Company nor Sears shall be liable to any Underwriter or any person controlling such Underwriter under the indemnity agreement in this subdivision (a) with respect to the Preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus or the Prospectus as amended or supplemented, as the case may be, to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability of such Underwriter or controlling person results solely from the fact that such Underwriter sold Designated Securities to a person to whom there was not sent or given, at or prior to the written confirmation of such sale, a copy of the Prospectus (excluding documents incorporated by reference) or of the Prospectus as then amended or supplemented (excluding documents incorporated by reference) if the Company has previously furnished copies thereof to such Underwriter.

(b) Each Underwriter will indemnify and hold harmless the Company and Sears against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which the Company or Sears may become subject, under the Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Preliminary Prospectus, the Registration Statement, the Prospectus, or the Prospectus as amended or supplemented, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or (in the case of the Registration Statement or the Prospectus or the Prospectus as amended or supplemented, or any amendment or supplement thereto) necessary to make the statements therein not misleading or (in the case of any Preliminary Prospectus) necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in any Preliminary Prospectus, the Registration Statement, the Prospectus, or the Prospectus as amended or supplemented, or any such amendment or supplement in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by such Underwriter through you expressly for use therein; and will reimburse the Company for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the Company in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim.

(c) Within a reasonable period after receipt by an indemnified party under subdivision (a) or (b) above of notice of the commencement of any action with respect to which indemnification is sought under such subdivision or contribution may be sought under subdivision (d) below, such indemnified party shall notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof. In case any such action shall be brought against any indemnified party, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate in, and, to the extent that it shall wish, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel satisfactory to such indemnified party, and after notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume the defense thereof, the indemnifying party shall not be liable to such indemnified party for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation.

(d) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 8 is unavailable to an indemnified party under subdivision (a) or (b) above in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) referred to therein, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Underwriters of the Designated Securities on the other from the offering of the Designated Securities to which such loss, claim, damage or liability (or actions in respect thereof) relates and also the relative fault of the Company on the one hand and the Underwriters of the Designated Securities on the other in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof), as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and such Underwriters on the other shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total net proceeds from the offering of such securities (before deducting expenses) received by the Company bear to the total underwriting discounts and commissions received by the Underwriters, in each case as set forth on the cover page of the Prospectus as amended or supplemented. The relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company on the one hand or the Underwriters on the other and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission of the Company on the one hand or the Underwriters, directly or through you, on the other hand. With respect to any Underwriter, such relative fault shall also be determined by reference to the extent (if any) to which such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) with respect to any Preliminary Prospectus result from the fact that such Underwriter sold Designated Securities to a person to whom there was not sent or given, at or prior to the written confirmation of such sale, a copy of the Prospectus (excluding documents incorporated by reference) or of the Prospectus as then amended or supplemented (excluding documents incorporated by reference) if the Company has previously furnished copies thereof to such Underwriter. The Company, Sears and the Underwriters agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this subdivision (d) were determined by per capita allocation among the indemnifying parties (even if the Underwriters were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of

allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above in this subdivision (d). The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) referred to above in this subdivision (d) shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this subdivision (d), no Underwriter shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total price at which the applicable Designated Securities underwritten by it and distributed to the public were offered to the public exceeds the amount of any damages which such Underwriter has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The obligations of the Underwriters in this subdivision (d) to contribute are several in proportion to their respective underwriting obligations and not joint.

(e) The obligations of the Company and Sears under this Section 8 shall be in addition to any liability which the Company and Sears may otherwise have and shall extend, upon the same terms and conditions, to each person, if any, who controls any Underwriter within the meaning of the Act; and the obligations of the Underwriters under this Section 8 shall be in addition to any liability which the respective Underwriters may otherwise have and shall extend, upon the same terms and conditions, to each officer and director of the Company and to each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Act.

9. (a) If any Underwriter shall default in its obligation to purchase the Designated Securities which it has agreed to purchase hereunder and under the Pricing Agreement relating to such Designated Securities, you may in your discretion arrange for yourselves or another party or other parties to purchase such Designated Securities on the terms contained herein. If within thirty-six hours after such default by any Underwriter you do not arrange for the purchase of such Designated Securities, then the Company shall be entitled to a further period of thirty-six hours within which to procure another party or other parties to purchase such Designated Securities on such terms. In the event that, within the respective prescribed periods, you notify the Company that you have so arranged for the purchase of such Designated Securities, or the Company notifies you that it has so arranged for the purchase of such Designated Securities, you or the Company shall have the right to postpone the Time of Delivery for such Designated Securities for a period of not more than seven days, in order to effect whatever changes may thereby be made necessary in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus as amended or supplemented, or in any other documents or arrangements, and the Company agrees to file promptly any amendments or supplements to the Registration Statement or the Prospectus which may thereby be made necessary. The term "Underwriter" as used in this Agreement shall include any person substituted under this Section with like effect as if such person had originally been a party to this Agreement with respect to such Designated Securities.

(b) If, after giving effect to any arrangements for the purchase of the Designated Securities of a defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters by you and the Company as provided in subdivision (a) above, the aggregate principal amount of such Designated Securities which remains unpurchased does not exceed one-eleventh of the aggregate principal amount of

the Designated Securities, then the Company shall have the right to require each non-defaulting Underwriter to purchase the principal amount of Securities which such Underwriter agreed to purchase hereunder and under the Pricing Agreement relating to such Designated Securities and, in addition, to require each non-defaulting Underwriter to purchase its pro rata share (based on the principal amount of the Designated Securities which such Underwriter agreed to purchase hereunder and under such Pricing Agreement) of the Designated Securities of such defaulting

Underwriter or Underwriters for which such arrangements have not been made; but nothing herein shall relieve a defaulting Underwriter from liability for its default.

(c) If, after giving effect to any arrangements for the purchase of the Designated Securities of a defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters by you and the Company as provided in subdivision (a) above, the aggregate principal amount of Designated Securities which remains unpurchased exceeds one-eleventh of the aggregate principal amount of the Designated Securities, as referred to in subdivision (b) above, or if the Company shall not exercise the right described in subdivision (b) above to require non-defaulting Underwriters to purchase Designated Securities of a defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters, then the Pricing Agreement relating to such Designated Securities shall thereupon terminate, without liability on the part of any non-defaulting Underwriter or the Company, except for the expenses to be borne by the Company and the Underwriters as provided in Section 6(e) hereof and the indemnity and contribution agreements in Section 8 hereof; but nothing herein shall relieve a defaulting Underwriter from liability for its default.

10. The respective indemnities, agreements, representations, warranties and other statements of the Company, Sears and the several Underwriters, as set forth in this Agreement or made by or on behalf of them, respectively, pursuant to this Agreement, shall remain in full force and effect, regardless of any investigation (or any statement as to the results thereof) made by or on behalf of any Underwriter or any controlling person of any Underwriter, or the Company, or any officer or director or controlling person of the Company, and shall survive delivery of and payment for the Securities.

Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the indemnity agreement of the Company and Sears in subdivisions (a) and (e) of Section 8 hereof, the representations and warranties in subdivisions (b) and (c) of Section 2 hereof and any representation or warranty as to the accuracy of the Registration Statement or the Prospectus as amended or supplemented contained in any certificate furnished by the Company pursuant to subdivision (i) of Section 7 hereof, insofar as they may constitute a basis for indemnification for liabilities (other than payment by the Company and Sears of expenses incurred or paid in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) arising under the Act, shall not extend to the extent of any interest therein of an Underwriter or a controlling person of an Underwriter if a director, officer or controlling person of the Company when the Registration Statement becomes effective or a person who, with his consent, is named in the Registration Statement as being about to become a director of the Company, is a controlling person of such Underwriter, except in each case to the extent that an interest of such character shall have been determined by a court of appropriate jurisdiction as not against public policy as expressed in the Act. Unless in the opinion of counsel for the Company and Sears the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, the Company and Sears will, if a claim for such indemnification is asserted, submit to a court of appropriate

jurisdiction the question whether such interest is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

11. If any Pricing Agreement shall be terminated pursuant to Section 9 hereof, the Company shall not then be under any liability to any Underwriter with respect to the Designated Securities covered by such Pricing Agreement except as provided in Section 6(e) and Section 8 hereof; but, if for any other reason any Designated Securities are not delivered by or on behalf of the Company as provided herein, the Company and Sears will reimburse the Underwriters through you for all out-of-pocket expenses approved in writing by you, including fees and disbursements of counsel, reasonably incurred by the Underwriters in making preparations for the purchase, sale and delivery of such Designated Securities, but neither the Company nor Sears shall then be under any further liability to any Underwriter with respect to such Designated Securities except as provided in Section 6(e) and Section 8 hereof.

12. In all dealings hereunder, you shall act on behalf of each of the underwriters of Designated Securities, and the parties hereto shall be entitled to act and rely upon any statement, request, notice or agreement on behalf of any Underwriter made or given by you.

All statements, requests, notices and agreements hereunder shall be in writing or by telegram or facsimile transmission if promptly confirmed in writing and if to the Underwriters shall be sufficient in all respects, if delivered or sent by registered mail to the representatives of the Underwriters named in the Pricing Agreement at the address named therein; and if to the Company or Sears shall be sufficient in all respects if delivered or sent by registered mail to the Company at ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, Attention: President.

13. This Agreement and each Pricing Agreement shall be binding upon, and inure solely to the benefit of, the Underwriters, Sears, the Company and, to the extent provided in Section 8 and Section 10 hereof, the officers and directors of the Company and each person who controls the Company or any Underwriter, and their respective heirs, executors, administrators, successors and assigns, and no other person shall acquire or have any right under or by virtue of this Agreement or any such Pricing Agreement. No purchaser of any of the Securities from any Underwriter shall be deemed a successor or assign by reason merely of such purchase.

14. Time shall be of the essence of this Agreement and each Pricing Agreement.

15. This Agreement and each Pricing Agreement shall be construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York. In the event of any conflict between this Agreement and the Pricing Agreement, the Pricing Agreement shall govern.

16. This Agreement and each Pricing Agreement may be executed by any one or more of the parties hereto and thereto in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all such respective counterparts shall together constitute one and the same instrument.

17. Each Underwriter represents and warrants to, and agrees with, Sears and the Company that (x) it has complied and shall comply with all applicable provisions of the Financial Services and Markets ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ ("FSMA") with respect to anything done by it in relation to the Certificates in, from or otherwise involving the United Kingdom; (y) it has only communicated or caused to be communicated and it will only communicate or cause to be communicated any invitation or inducement to engage in investment activity (within the meaning of section 21 of FSMA) received by it in connection with the issue or sale of any Certificates in circumstances in which section 21(1) of FSMA does not apply to Sears or the Company; and (z) it has not offered or sold and, prior to the date which is six months after the date of issue of the Certificates will not offer or sell any Certificates to persons in the United Kingdom except to persons whose ordinary activities involve them in acquiring, holding, managing, or disposing of investments (as principal or agent) for the purposes of their businesses or otherwise in circumstances which do not constitute an offer to the public in the United Kingdom for purposes of the Public Offers of Securities Regulations 1995.

If the foregoing is in accordance with your understanding, please sign and return ten counterparts hereof and upon the acceptance hereof by you, on behalf of each of the Underwriters, this letter and such acceptance hereof shall constitute a binding agreement between each of the Underwriters and the Company.

Additional Agreements

(a) Notwithstanding anything in the Agreement to the contrary, the Underwriters named in Schedule 1 agree that the Company and Sears may enter into that certain Pricing Agreement of even date herewith (the "Class B Pricing Agreement") pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement dated __________, 20__ among the Company, Sears and the Class B Underwriter (as defined herein) (the "Class B Underwriting Agreement"), with respect to the purchase and sale of the Class B Master Trust Certificates, Series 20__-_ (the "Class B Certificates") and may consummate the transactions contemplated thereby. It is a condition to the effectiveness of the Pricing Agreement and the Agreement that the Class B Underwriting Agreement and the Class B Pricing Agreement be duly executed and delivered by the parties thereto.

(b) Notwithstanding anything in the Agreement or in this Pricing Agreement to the contrary, the Agreement and this Pricing Agreement constitute the entire agreement and understanding among the parties hereto with respect to the purchase and sale of the Class A Certificates. This Pricing Agreement may be amended only by written agreement of the parties hereto.

(c) If the underwriter under the Class B Pricing Agreement (the "Class B Underwriter") shall default in its obligations to purchase the Class B Certificates and the Class B Pricing Agreement terminates in accordance with its terms, the Underwriters named in Schedule 1 shall have the right to purchase the Class B Certificates on the same terms that the Class B Underwriter was entitled to purchase such Class B Certificates prior to the expiration of the Class B Pricing Agreement and in the same proportions that the Underwriters named in Schedule 1 have agreed to purchase the Class A Certificates hereunder; provided, however, the Company shall have the right to postpone the Time of Delivery for the Class A Certificates and the Class B Certificates for a period of not more than seven days, to affect whatever changes may thereby be made necessary in the Registration Statement or Prospectus as amended or supplemented, or in any other documents or arrangements, and the Company agrees to file promptly any amendments or supplements to the Registration Statement or the Prospectus which may thereby be necessary.

(d) If (i) the Class B Underwriter shall default in its obligations to purchase the Class B Certificates, (ii) the Class B Pricing Agreement terminates in accordance with its terms and (iii) the Underwriters named in Schedule 1 do not agree to purchase the Class B Certificates on the terms and in the proportions described in paragraph (e) above, the Company shall have the right to postpone the Time of Delivery for the Class A Certificates for a period of not more than ten days, in order to procure another party or other parties to purchase such Class B Certificates and to effect whatever changes may thereby be made necessary in the Registration Statement or

Prospectus as amended or supplemented, or in any other documents or arrangements, and the Company agrees to file promptly any amendments or supplements which may thereby be necessary.

(e) The purchase and sale of the Class A Certificates hereunder shall occur concurrently with and, subject to paragraph (c) above, shall be conditioned upon, the purchase and sale of the Class B Certificates. Notwithstanding anything in the Agreement to the contrary, unless the Underwriters named in Schedule 1 purchase the Class B Certificates as described in paragraph (c) above, if the Class B Pricing Agreement terminates because of the default of the Class B Underwriter, the Company shall not be under any liability to any Underwriter with respect to the Class A Certificates covered hereby except as provided in Section 6(e) and Section 8 of the Agreement.

The Underwriters [named in Schedule 1 hereto agree, severally and not jointly], subject to the terms and provisions of the Agreement, which is incorporated by reference herein and made a part hereof, to purchase the principal amount of Designated Securities [set forth opposite their names in Schedule 1].
