Management Agreement


                         COLONIAL MUNICIPAL INCOME TRUST

                              MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT

AGREEMENT dated as of November 1, 2001, between COLONIAL MUNICIPAL INCOME TRUST,
a Massachusetts business trust ("Fund"), and COLONIAL MANAGEMENT ASSOCIATES,
INC., a Massachusetts corporation ("Advisor").

In consideration of the promises and covenants herein, the parties agree as
follows:

1. The Advisor will manage the investment of the assets of the Fund in
   accordance with its investment policies and will perform the other services
   herein set forth, subject to the supervision of the Board of Trustees of the
   Fund.

2. In carrying out its investment management obligations, the Advisor shall:

      (a) evaluate such economic, statistical and financial information and
    undertake such investment research as it shall believe advisable; (b)
    purchase and sell securities and other investments for the Fund in
    accordance with the procedures approved by the Board of Trustees; and (c)
    report results to the Board of Trustees.

3. The Advisor shall furnish at its expense the following:

      (a) office space, supplies, facilities and equipment; (b) executive and
    other personnel for managing the affairs of the Fund (including preparing
    financial information of the Fund and reports and tax returns required to be
    filed with public authorities, but exclusive of those related to custodial,
    transfer, dividend and plan agency services, determination of net asset
    value and maintenance of records required by Section 31(a) of the Investment
    Company Act of 1940, as amended, and the rules thereunder (1940 Act)); and
    (c) compensation of Trustees who are directors, officers, partners or
    employees of the Advisor or its affiliated persons (other than a registered
    investment company).

4. The Advisor shall be free to render similar services to others so long as its
services hereunder are not impaired thereby.

5. The Fund shall pay the Advisor monthly a fee at the annual rate of 0.65% of
the average weekly net assets of the Fund.

6. If the operating expenses of the Fund for any fiscal year exceed the most
   restrictive applicable expense limitation for any state in which shares are
   sold, the Advisor's fee shall be reduced by the excess but not to less than
   zero.

   Operating expenses shall not include brokerage, interest, taxes, deferred
   organization expenses and extraordinary expenses, if any. The Advisor may
   waive its compensation (and, bear expenses of the Fund) to the extent that
   expenses of the Fund exceed any expense limitation the Advisor declares to be
   effective.

7.   This Agreement shall become effective as of the date of its execution, and
     (a) unless otherwise terminated, shall continue until July 31, 2003 and
     from year to year thereafter so long as approved annually in accordance
     with the 1940 Act; (b) may be terminated without penalty on sixty days'
     written notice to the Advisor either by vote of the Board of Trustees of
     the Fund or by vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities of
     the Fund; (c) shall automatically terminate in the event of its assignment;
     and (d) may be terminated without penalty by the Advisor on sixty days'
     written notice to the Fund.

8.   This Agreement may be amended in accordance with the 1940 Act.

9.   For the purpose of the Agreement, the terms "vote of a majority of the
     outstanding voting securities", "affiliated person" and "assignment" shall
     have their respective meanings defined in the 1940 Act and exemptions and
     interpretations issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission under the
     1940 Act.

10.  In the absence of willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence on the
     part of the Advisor, or reckless disregard of its obligations and duties
     hereunder, the Advisor shall not be subject to any liability to the Fund,
     to any shareholder of the Fund or to any other person, firm or
     organization, for any act or omission in the course of, or connected with,
     rendering services hereunder.

Accountant's Report on Internal Control

[PricewaterhouseCoopers logo]
PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP
160 Federal Street
Boston, MA 02110-9862
Report of Independent Accountants


To the Board of Trustees and Shareholders of
Colonial Municipal Income Trust

In planning and performing our audits of the financial statements of Colonial
Municipal Income Trust (the "Fund") for the year ended November 30, 2001, we
considered its internal control, including control activities for safeguarding
securities, in order to determine our auditing procedures for the purpose of
expressing our opinion on the financial statements and to comply with the
requirements of Form N-SAR, and not to provide assurance on internal control.

The management of the Fund is responsible for establishing and maintaining
internal control. In fulfilling this responsibility, estimates and judgments by
management are required to assess the expected benefits and related costs of
controls. Generally, controls that are relevant to an audit pertain to the
entity's objective of preparing financial statements for external purposes that
are fairly presented in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles. Those controls include the safeguarding of assets against
unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition.

Because of inherent limitations in internal control, errors or fraud may occur
and not be detected. Also, projection of any evaluation of internal control to
future periods is subject to the risk that it may become inadequate because of
changes in conditions or that the effectiveness of the design and operation may
deteriorate.

Our consideration of internal control would not necessarily disclose all matters
in internal control that might be material weaknesses under standards
established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. A
material weakness is a condition in which the design or operation of one or more
of the internal control components does not reduce to a relatively low level the
risk that misstatements caused by error or fraud in amounts that would be
material in relation to the financial statements being audited may occur and not
be detected within a timely period by employees in the normal course of
performing their assigned functions. However, we noted no matters involving
internal control and its operation, including controls for safeguarding
securities, that we consider to be material weaknesses as defined above as of
November 30, 2001.

This report is intended solely for the information and use of the Board of
Trustees, management and the Securities and Exchange Commission and is not
intended to be and should not be used by anyone other than these specified
parties.
