Section 5.01. Servicer to Service.
The Servicer, as an independent contractor, shall service and administer the related Mortgage Loans from and after the Closing Date and shall have full power and authority, acting alone, to do any and all things in connection with such servicing and administration which the Servicer may deem necessary or desirable, consistent with the terms of this Agreement and with Accepted Servicing Practices.
Consistent with the terms of this Agreement, the Servicer may waive, modify or vary any term of any Mortgage Loan or consent to the postponement of strict compliance with any such term or in any manner grant indulgence to any Mortgagor if in the Servicer’s reasonable and prudent determination such waiver, modification, postponement or indulgence is not materially adverse to the Issuer; provided, however, that unless the Servicer has obtained the prior written consent of the Master Servicer, the Servicer shall not permit any modification with respect to any Mortgage Loan that would change the Note Rate, defer or forgive the payment of principal or interest, reduce or increase the outstanding principal balance (except for actual payments of principal) or change the final maturity date on such Mortgage Loan. In the event of any such modification which permits the deferral of interest or principal payments on any Mortgage Loan, the Servicer shall, on the Business Day immediately preceding the Remittance Date in any month in which any such principal or interest payment has been deferred, make a Monthly Advance in accordance with Section 6.03, in an amount equal to the difference between (a) such month’s principal and one month’s interest at the Mortgage Loan Remittance Rate on the unpaid principal balance of such Mortgage Loan and (b) the amount paid by the Mortgagor. The Servicer shall be entitled to reimbursement for such advances to the same extent as for all other advances pursuant to Section 6.04. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Servicer shall continue, and is hereby authorized and empowered, to execute and deliver on behalf of itself and the Indenture Trustee, all instruments of satisfaction or cancellation, or of partial or full release, discharge and all other comparable instruments, with respect to the Mortgage Loans and with respect to the Mortgaged Properties. Upon the reasonable request of the Servicer, the Indenture Trustee shall execute and deliver to the Servicer with any powers of attorney and other documents, furnished to it by the Servicer and reasonably satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee, necessary or appropriate to enable the Servicer to carry out its servicing and administrative duties under this Agreement; provided that the Indenture Trustee shall not be liable for the actions of the Servicer under such powers of attorney. Promptly after the execution of any assumption, modification, consolidation or extension of any Mortgage Loan, the Servicer shall forward to the Master Servicer copies of any documents evidencing such assumption, modification, consolidation or extension. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Servicer shall not make or permit any modification, waiver or amendment of any term of any Mortgage Loan that would cause any FASIT created under the Transfer and Servicing Agreement to fail to qualify as a FASIT or result in the imposition of any tax under Section 860L(e) of the Code.
The Servicer shall not without the Indenture Trustee’s written consent: (i) initiate any action, suit or proceedings solely under the Indenture Trustee’s name without indicating the Servicer’s, representative capacity or (ii) take any action with the intent to cause, and which actually does cause, the Indenture Trustee to be registered to do business in any state. The Servicer shall indemnify the Indenture Trustee for any and all costs, liabilities and expenses incurred by the Indenture Trustee in connection with the negligent or willful misuse of such powers of attorney by the Servicer.
In servicing and administering the Mortgage Loans, the Servicer shall employ procedures (including collection procedures) and exercise the same care that it would employ and exercise in servicing and administering mortgage loans for its own account, giving due consideration to Accepted Servicing Practices where such practices do not conflict with the requirements of this Agreement.
Except as provided below, the Servicer or any designee of the Servicer shall not waive any Prepayment Charge with respect to any Mortgage Loan. If the Servicer or its designee fails to collect a Prepayment Charge at the time of the related prepayment of any Mortgage Loan subject to such Prepayment Charge, the Servicer shall pay to the Master Servicer at such time (by deposit to the Custodial Account) an amount equal to the amount of the Prepayment Charge not collected; provided, however, that with respect to any Mortgage Loan as to which the original or a copy of the Mortgage Note is not in the Servicer's possession (after the Servicer has used commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the Mortgage Note from the related Custodian), the Servicer shall not have any obligation to pay the amount of any uncollected Prepayment Charge under this Section 3.20 if the failure to collect such amount is the result of inaccurate or incomplete information regarding Prepayment Charges included on the Mortgage Loan Schedule relating to the related Mortgage Loan. With respect to any Mortgage Loan as to which the original or a copy of the Mortgage Note is not in the Servicer's possession (after the Servicer has used commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the Mortgage Note from the related Custodian), the Servicer may rely on the Prepayment Charge data set forth on the related Mortgage Loan Schedule and the Servicer shall not have any liability for any loss resulting from the Servicer's calculation of the Prepayment Charge utilizing the data contained in the related Mortgage Loan Schedule. Notwithstanding the above, the Servicer or its designee may waive (and shall waive, in the case of (ii)(c) below) a Prepayment Charge without paying to the Master Servicer the amount of such Prepayment Charge only if such Prepayment Charge (i) relates to a defaulted Mortgage Loan (defined as 61 days or more delinquent), and such waiver would maximize recovery of total proceeds from the Mortgage Loan, taking into account the amount of such Prepayment Charge and the related Mortgage Loan, or (ii) if the prepayment is not a result of a refinance by the Servicer or any of its affiliates and (a) a default under the Mortgage Loan is reasonably foreseeable and such waiver would maximize recovery of total proceeds taking into account the value of such a prepayment charge and the related Mortgage Loan, (b) the collection of the Prepayment Charge would be in violation of applicable laws or (c) notwithstanding any state or federal law to the contrary, any Prepayment Charge in any instance when a Mortgage Loan is in foreclosure.
33.
Section 5.04 (Establishment of Custodial Account; Deposits in Custodial Account) is hereby amended as follows:
(i)
by amending the first paragraph thereof as follows:
The Servicer shall segregate and hold all funds collected and received pursuant to the Mortgage Loans separate and apart from any of its own funds and general assets and shall establish and maintain one or more Custodial Accounts, in the form of time deposit or demand accounts, titled “Cendant Mortgage Corporation in trust for U.S. Bank National Association, as Indenture Trustee for SASCO Mortgage Loan Trust 2004-GEL3.” The Custodial Account shall be an Eligible Deposit Account established with an Eligible Institution. Any funds deposited in the Custodial Account may be invested in Permitted Investments subject to the provisions of Section 3.11 hereof. Funds deposited in the Custodial Account may be drawn on by the Servicer in accordance with Section 3.04. The creation of any Custodial Account shall be evidenced by a letter agreement in the form of Exhibit G hereto. A copy of such certification or letter agreement shall be furnished to the Master Servicer and the Indenture Trustee.

with respect to each Principal Prepayment in full or in part, the Prepayment Interest Shortfall Amount, if any, for the month of Payment. Such deposit shall be made from the Servicer’s own funds, without reimbursement therefor up to a maximum amount per month of the Servicing Fee actually received for such month for the Mortgage Loans;
(iv)
by adding new clauses (11), (12), (13) and (14) to read as follows:

all Prepayment Charges;
(12)
any amounts received from the Seller of the Mortgage Loan or any other person giving representations and warranties with respect to the Mortgage Loan, in connection with the repurchase of any Mortgage Loan;

(14)
any Seller Remittance Amount.
34.

(11)
to transfer funds to another Eligible Institution in accordance with Section 5.09 hereof; and
(12)
to invest funds in certain Permitted Investments in accordance with Section 5.09 hereof.
35.
Section 5.09 (Transfer of Accounts) is hereby amended in its entirety as follows:
Section 5.09 Transfer of Accounts.
The Servicer may transfer the Custodial Account to a different Eligible Institution from time to time; provided that in the event the Custodial Account is held in a depository institution or trust company that ceases to be an Eligible Institution, the Servicer shall transfer such Custodial Account to an Eligible Institution. Such transfer shall be made only upon obtaining the consent of the Indenture Trustee, which consent shall not be withheld unreasonably, and the Servicer shall give notice to the Master Servicer of any change in the location of the Custodial Account. The Servicer shall bear any expenses, losses or damages sustained by the Master Servicer or the Indenture Trustee if the Custodial Account is not a demand deposit account.
Amounts on deposit in the Custodial Account may at the option of the Servicer be invested in Permitted Investments. Any such Permitted Investment shall mature no later than one day prior to the Remittance Date in each month; provided, however, that if such Permitted Investment is an obligation of an Eligible Institution (other than the Servicer) that maintains the Custodial Account, then such Permitted Investment may mature on the related Remittance Date. Any such Permitted Investment shall be made in the name of the Servicer in trust for the benefit of the Indenture Trustee. All income on or gain realized from any such Permitted Investment shall be for the benefit of the Servicer and may be withdrawn at any time by the Servicer. Any losses incurred in respect of any such investment shall be deposited in the Custodial Account, by the Servicer out of its own funds immediately as realized. If, at any time, the amount on deposit in the Custodial Account exceeds the amount of the applicable FDIC insurance, such excess above the amount of the applicable FDIC insurance shall be invested in Permitted Investments.
Amounts on deposit in the Custodial Account may at the option of the Servicer be invested in Permitted Investments; provided that in the event that amounts on deposit in the Custodial Account exceed the amount fully insured by the FDIC (the “Insured Amount”), the Servicer shall be obligated to invest the excess amount over the Insured Amount in Permitted Investments on the same Business Day as such excess amount becomes present in the Custodial Account. Any such Permitted Investment shall mature no later than the Business Day immediately preceding the related Remittance Date. Any such Permitted Investment shall be made in the name of the Servicer in trust for the benefit of the Indenture Trustee. All income on or gain realized from any such Permitted Investment shall be for the benefit of the Servicer and may be withdrawn at any time by the Servicer. Any losses incurred in respect of any such investment shall be deposited in the Custodial Account by the Servicer out of its own funds immediately as realized.
36.
Section 5.13 (Management of REO Properties) is hereby amended in its entirety as follows:
Section 5.13 Management of REO Properties.
In the event that title to any Mortgaged Property is acquired in foreclosure or by deed in lieu of foreclosure, the deed or certificate of sale shall be taken in the name of the Indenture Trustee or its nominee in trust for the benefit of the Securityholders, or in the event the Indenture Trustee is not authorized or permitted to hold title to real property in the state where the REO Property is located, or would be adversely affected under the “doing business” or tax laws of such state by so holding title, the deed or certificate of sale shall be taken in the name of such Person or Persons as shall be consistent with an Opinion of Counsel obtained by the Servicer (with a copy delivered to the Indenture Trustee) from any attorney duly licensed to practice law in the state where the REO Property is located. The Person or Persons holding such title other than the Indenture Trustee shall acknowledge in writing that such title is being held as nominee for the Indenture Trustee.
The Servicer shall manage, conserve, protect and operate each REO Property for the Indenture Trustee solely for the purpose of its prompt disposition and sale. The Servicer, either itself or through an agent selected by the Servicer, shall manage, conserve, protect and operate the REO Property in the same manner that it manages, conserves, protects and operates other foreclosed property for its own account, and in the same manner that similar property in the same locality as the REO Property is managed. The Servicer shall attempt to sell the same (and may temporarily rent the same for a period not greater than one year, except as otherwise provided below) on such terms and conditions as the Servicer deems to be in the best interest of the Issuer, subject to the lien of the Indenture Trustee.
If the Servicer hereafter becomes aware that a Mortgaged Property is an Environmental Problem Property, the Servicer will notify the Master Servicer of the existence of the Environmental Problem Property. Additionally, the Servicer shall set forth in such notice a description of such problem, a recommendation to the Master Servicer relating to the proposed action regarding the Environmental Problem Property, and the Servicer shall carry out the recommendation set forth in such notice unless otherwise directed by the Master Servicer in writing within five (5) days after its receipt (or deemed receipt) of such notice in accordance with the terms and provisions of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Servicer shall obtain the Master Servicer's written consent to any expenditures proposed to remediate Environmental Problem Properties or to defend any claims associated with Environmental Problem Properties if such expenses, in the aggregate, are expected to exceed $100,000. Failure to provide written notice of disapproval of the expenditure within five (5) days of receipt (or deemed receipt) of such request for prepaid expenditures shall be deemed an approval of such expenditure. If the Servicer has received reliable instructions to the effect that a Property is an Environmental Problem Property (e.g., Servicer obtains a broker's price opinion which reveals the potential for such problem), the Servicer will not accept a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure upon any such Property without first obtaining a preliminary environmental investigation for the Property satisfactory to the Master Servicer.
In the event that the Issuer, subject to the lien of the Indenture Trustee, acquires any REO Property in connection with a default or imminent default on a Mortgage Loan, the Servicer shall dispose of such REO Property not later than the end of the third taxable year after the year of its acquisition by the Issuer, subject to the lien of the Indenture Trustee, unless the Servicer has applied for and received a grant of extension from the Internal Revenue Service to the effect that, under the FASIT Provisions and any relevant proposed legislation and under applicable state law, the applicable Trust FASIT may hold REO Property for a longer period without adversely affecting the FASIT status of such any FASIT formed pursuant to the Transfer and Servicing Agreement or causing the imposition of a federal or state tax upon any such FASIT. If the Servicer has received such an extension, then the Servicer shall continue to attempt to sell the REO Property for its fair market value for such period longer than three years as such extension permits (the “Extended Period”). If the Servicer has not received such an extension and the Servicer is unable to sell the REO Property within the period ending three months before the end of such third taxable year after its acquisition by the Issuer, subject to the lien of the Indenture Trustee or if the Servicer has received such an extension, and the Servicer is unable to sell the REO Property within the period ending three months before the close of the Extended Period, the Servicer shall, before the end of the three-year period or the Extended Period, as applicable, (i) purchase such REO Property at a price equal to the REO Property’s fair market value, or (ii) auction the REO Property to the highest bidder (which may be the Servicer) in an auction reasonably designed to produce a fair price prior to the expiration of the three-year period or the Extended Period, as the case may be. The Master Servicer shall sign any document or take any other action reasonably requested by the Servicer which would enable the Servicer, on behalf of the Issuer, subject to the lien of the Indenture Trustee, to request such grant of extension.
Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, no REO Property acquired by the Issuer, subject to the lien of the Indenture Trustee, shall be rented (or allowed to continue to be rented) or otherwise used by or on behalf of the Issuer, subject to the lien of the Indenture Trustee, in such a manner or pursuant to any terms that would: (i) cause such REO Property to fail to qualify as “foreclosure property” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(8) of the Code; or (ii) subject any FASIT formed pursuant to the Transfer and Servicing Agreement to the imposition of any federal income taxes on the income earned from such REO Property, unless the Servicer has agreed to indemnify and hold harmless the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee with respect to the imposition of any such taxes.
The Servicer shall also maintain on each REO Property fire and hazard insurance with extended coverage in amount which is at least equal to the maximum insurable value of the improvements which are a part of such property, liability insurance and, to the extent required and available under the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973, as amended, flood insurance in the amount required above.
The proceeds of sale of the REO Property shall be promptly deposited in the Custodial Account. As soon as practical thereafter the expenses of such sale shall be paid and the Servicer shall reimburse itself for any related unreimbursed Servicing Advances, unpaid Servicing Fees and unreimbursed advances made pursuant to this Section or Section 6.03.
The Servicer shall make advances of all funds necessary for the proper operation, management and maintenance of the REO Property, including the cost of maintaining any hazard insurance pursuant to Section 5.10, such advances to be reimbursed from the disposition or liquidation proceeds of the REO Property. The Servicer shall make monthly distributions on each Remittance Date to the Master Servicer of the net cash flow from the REO Property (which shall equal the revenues from such REO Property net of the expenses described in this Section 5.13 and of any reserves reasonably required from time to time to be maintained to satisfy anticipated liabilities for such expenses).
37.
Section 5.14 (Sale of Specially Serviced Mortgage Loans and REO Properties) and Section 5.15 (Realization Upon Specially Serviced Mortgage Loans and REO Properties) are hereby deleted.

That statement shall be accompanied by such other information as either the Master Servicer, the Credit Risk Manager or the Indenture Trustee shall reasonably request.
39.
A new Section 5.18 (Safeguarding Customer Information) is hereby added to read as follows:
Section 5.18 Safeguarding Customer Information.
The Servicer has implemented and will maintain security measures designed to meet the objectives of the Interagency Guidelines Establishing Standards for Safeguarding Customer Information published in final form on March 1, 2001, 66 Fed. Reg. 8616 and the rules promulgated thereunder, as amended from time to time (the “Guidelines”).
The Servicer shall promptly provide the Master Servicer and the Indenture Trustee information reasonably available to it regarding such security measures upon the reasonable request of the Master Servicer and the Indenture Trustee which information shall include, but not be limited to, any Statement on Auditing Standards (SAS) No. 70 report covering the Servicer’s operations, and any other audit reports, summaries of test results or equivalent measures taken by the Servicer with respect to its security measures to the extent reasonably necessary in order for the Owner to satisfy its obligations under the Guidelines.
40.
A new Section 5.19 (Compensating Interest) is hereby added to read as follows:
Section 5.19 Compensating Interest
The Servicer shall deposit in the Custodial Account on a daily basis, and retain therein with respect to each Principal Prepayment, the Prepayment Interest Shortfall Amount, if any, for the month of distribution. Such deposit shall be made from the Servicer’s own funds, without reimbursement therefor up to a maximum amount of the Servicing Fee actually received for such month for the Mortgage Loans.
41.
A new Section 5.20 (Indemnification with Respect to Certain Taxes and Loss of FASIT Status) is hereby added to read as follows:
Section 5.20 Indemnification with Respect to Certain Taxes and Loss of FASIT Status.
In the event that any FASIT fails to qualify as a FASIT, loses its status as a FASIT, or incurs federal, state or local taxes as a result of a prohibited transaction under the FASIT Provisions due to the negligent performance by the Servicer of its duties and obligations set forth herein, the Servicer shall indemnify the Holder of the related Ownership Certificate, the Master Servicer, the Indenture Trustee and the Issuer against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses (“Losses”) resulting from such negligence; provided, however, that the Servicer shall not be liable for any such Losses attributable to the action or inaction of the Indenture Trustee, the Depositor, the Issuer, the Master Servicer or the Holder of such Ownership Certificate, as applicable, nor for any such Losses resulting from misinformation provided by the Holder of such Ownership Certificate on which the Servicer has relied. The foregoing shall not be deemed to limit or restrict the rights and remedies of the Holder of such Ownership Certificate, the Indenture Trustee or the Issuer, now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, in no event shall the Servicer have any liability (1) for any action or omission that is taken in accordance with and in compliance with the express terms of, or which is expressly permitted by the terms of, this Agreement, (2) for any Losses other than arising out of a negligent performance by the Servicer of its duties and obligations set forth herein, and (3) for any special or consequential damages to Securityholders (in addition to payment of principal and interest on the Notes).

The parties hereto acknowledge that the remedies set forth in Section 10.01 may be exercised by either the Master Servicer or the Indenture Trustee on behalf of the Issuer.
55.
Section 11.01 (Term and Termination) is hereby amended by changing the references to “Purchaser” in the second and third paragraph of such section to “Master Servicer.”
56.
Section 11.02 (Termination without Cause) is hereby deleted in its entirety.
57.
Section 12.01 (Successor to the Servicer) is hereby amended in its entirety to read as follows:
Simultaneously with the termination of the Servicer’s responsibilities and duties under this Agreement (a) pursuant to Sections 9.04, 10.01, 11.01 or 11.02, the Master Servicer shall, in accordance with the provisions of the Transfer and Servicing Agreement (i) succeed to and assume all of the Servicer’s responsibilities, rights, duties and obligations under this Agreement, or (ii) appoint a successor meeting the eligibility requirements of this Agreement set forth in Section 9.02 and which shall succeed to all rights and assume all of the responsibilities, duties and liabilities of the Servicer under this Agreement with the termination of the Servicer’s responsibilities, duties and liabilities under this Agreement. Any successor to the Servicer that is not at that time a Servicer of other Mortgage Loans for the Issuer shall be subject to the approval of the Master Servicer, the Seller, the Indenture Trustee and each Rating Agency (as such term is defined in the Transfer and Servicing Agreement). Unless the successor servicer is at that time a servicer of other mortgage loans for the Issuer, each Rating Agency must deliver to the Indenture Trustee a letter to the effect that such transfer of servicing will not result in a qualification, withdrawal or downgrade of the then-current rating of any of the Notes. In connection with such appointment and assumption, the Master Servicer or the Depositor, as applicable, may make such arrangements for the compensation of such successor out of payments on the Mortgage Loans as it and such successor shall agree; provided, however, that no such compensation shall be in excess of that permitted the Servicer under this Agreement. In the event that the Servicer’s duties, responsibilities and liabilities under this Agreement should be terminated pursuant to the aforementioned sections, the Servicer shall discharge such duties and responsibilities during the period from the date it acquires knowledge of such termination until the effective date thereof with the same degree of diligence and prudence which it is obligated to exercise under this Agreement, and shall take no action whatsoever that might impair or prejudice the rights or financial condition of its successor. The resignation or removal of the Servicer pursuant to the aforementioned sections shall not become effective until a successor shall be appointed pursuant to this Section 12.01 and shall in no event relieve the Servicer of the representations and warranties made pursuant to Section 3.02 and the remedies available to the Indenture Trustee under Sections 3.04 and 9.01, it being understood and agreed that the provisions of such Sections 3.02, 3.04 and 9.01 shall be applicable to the Servicer notwithstanding any such resignation or termination of the Servicer, or the termination of this Agreement.
Within a reasonable period of time, but in no event longer than 30 days of the appointment of a successor entity, the Servicer shall prepare, execute and deliver to the successor entity any and all documents and other instruments, place in such successor’s possession all Servicing Files, and do or cause to be done all other acts or things necessary or appropriate to effect the purposes of such notice of termination. The Servicer shall cooperate with the Indenture Trustee and the Master Servicer, as applicable, and such successor in effecting the termination of the Servicer’s responsibilities and rights hereunder and the transfer of servicing responsibilities to the successor Servicer, including without limitation, the transfer to such successor for administration by it of all cash amounts which shall at the time be credited by the Servicer to the Custodial Account or thereafter received with respect to the Mortgage Loans.
Any successor appointed as provided herein shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Indenture Trustee, the Servicer and the Master Servicer an instrument (i) accepting such appointment, wherein the successor shall make the representations and warranties set forth in Section 3.02 and (ii) an assumption of the due and punctual performance and observance of each covenant and condition to be performed and observed by the Servicer under this Agreement, whereupon such successor shall become fully vested with all the rights, powers, duties, responsibilities, obligations and liabilities of the Servicer, with like effect as if originally named as a party to this Agreement. Any termination or resignation of the Servicer or termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 12.01 shall not affect any claims that the Master Servicer or the Indenture Trustee may have against the Servicer arising out of the Servicer’s actions or failure to act prior to any such termination or resignation.
The Servicer shall deliver within ten (10) Business Days to the successor Servicer the funds in the Custodial Account and all Mortgage Loan Documents and related documents and statements held by it hereunder and the Servicer shall account for all funds and shall execute and deliver such instruments and do such other things as may reasonably be required to more fully and definitively vest in the successor all such rights, powers, duties, responsibilities, obligations and liabilities of the Servicer.
Upon a successor’s acceptance of appointment as such, the Servicer shall notify the Indenture Trustee and Master Servicer of such appointment in accordance with the notice procedures set forth herein.
58.
A new Section 12.12 (Intended Third Party Beneficiaries) is hereby added to read as follows:
Section 12.12 Intended Third Party Beneficiaries.
Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, the parties to this Agreement agree that it is appropriate, in furtherance of the intent of such parties as set forth herein, that the Indenture Trustee receive the benefit of the provisions of this Agreement as intended third party beneficiaries of this Agreement to the extent of such provisions. The Servicer shall have the same obligations to the Indenture Trustee as if it were a party to this Agreement, and the Indenture Trustee shall have the same rights and remedies to enforce the provisions of this Agreement as if it were a party to this Agreement. The Servicer shall only take direction from the Master Servicer (if direction by the Master Servicer is required under this Agreement) unless otherwise directed by this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, all rights and obligations of the Master Servicer and the Indenture Trustee hereunder (other than the right to indemnification and the indemnification obligations) shall terminate upon termination of the Issuer pursuant to the Transfer and Servicing Agreement.
59.
A new Section 12.13 (Request for Release) is hereby added to read as follows:
Request for Release. When requesting a release of documents from the Custodian, the Servicer shall use the form attached hereto as Exhibit E.
60.
For the purposes of the SASCO Mortgage Loan Trust 2004-GEL3, Mortgage-Backed Notes, Series 2004-GEL3 transaction, the Indenture Trustee shall be U.S. Bank National Association, not in its individual capacity, but solely as indenture trustee, or any successor in interest, or if any successor trustee shall be appointed under the provisions of the indenture dated as of September 1, 2004, between the Indenture Trustee and SASCO Mortgage Loan Trust 2004-GEL3, as issuer, then such successor in interest or successor trustee, as the case may be
