The foregoing sale contemplated by this Agreement and the First Step
Secured Notes Assignment does not constitute and is not intended to result in
any assumption by ▇▇▇▇ of (i) any obligation of GMAC to the Lessees, Dealers,
insurers or any other Person in connection with the COLT 2005-SN1 Secured Notes,
the Series 2005-SN1 Lease Assets, any Dealer Agreements, any insurance policies

Step Purchased Property, ▇▇▇▇ shall, on or about the Series 2005-SN1 Closing

ARTICLE III
ADMINISTRATION OF THE COLT 2005-SN1 SECURED NOTES
SECTION 3.01 Duties of the Trust Administrator.
(a) The Trust Administrator is hereby appointed and authorized to
act as agent for the Owner of the COLT 2005-SN1 Secured Notes and in such
capacity shall administer the COLT 2005-SN1 Secured Notes with reasonable care,
using that degree of skill and attention that the Trust Administrator exercises
with respect to comparable property that it administers for itself or others.
The Trust Administrator hereby accepts such appointment and authorization and
agrees to perform the duties of Trust Administrator with respect to the COLT
2005-SN1 Secured Notes set forth herein and in the Further Transfer and
Administration Agreements.
(b) The Trust Administrator's duties shall include posting of all
payments on the COLT 2005-SN1 Secured Notes, accounting for collections and
furnishing monthly and annual statements to ▇▇▇▇ and any other Persons
designated herein with respect to distributions, generating federal income tax
information, giving any required notices or instructions to ▇▇▇▇ or the CARAT
Owner Trustee and performing the other duties specified herein. Subject to the
provisions of Section 3.02, the Trust Administrator shall follow its customary
standards, policies and procedures and shall have full power and authority,
acting alone, to do any and all things in connection with such administration
that it may deem necessary or desirable.
(c) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Trust
Administrator is hereby authorized and empowered by the Owner of the COLT
2005-SN1 Secured Notes, pursuant to this Section 3.01, to execute and deliver,
on behalf of all Interested Parties, or any of them, any and all instruments of
satisfaction or cancellation, or of partial or full release or discharge, and
all other comparable instruments, with respect to the COLT 2005-SN1 Secured
Notes. The Trust Administrator is hereby authorized to commence, in its own name
or in the name of the Owner of such COLT 2005-SN1 Secured Note a legal
proceeding to enforce all obligations of GMAC and ▇▇▇▇ under this Agreement and
under the Further Transfer and Administration Agreements or to commence or
participate in a legal proceeding (including a bankruptcy proceeding) relating
to or involving a COLT 2005-SN1 Secured Note. If the Trust Administrator
commences or participates in such a legal proceeding in its own name, the Owner
of such COLT 2005-SN1 Secured Note shall be deemed to have automatically
assigned such COLT 2005-SN1 Secured Note to the Trust Administrator for the
benefit of the Interested Parties for purposes of commencing or participating in
any such proceeding as a party or claimant. Upon such automatic assignment, the
Trust Administrator will be, and will have all the rights and duties of, a
secured party under the UCC and other applicable law with respect to such COLT
2005-SN1 Secured Note. At the Trust Administrator's request from time to time,
the Owner of a COLT 2005-SN1 Secured Note assigned under this Section 3.01 shall
provide the Trust Administrator with evidence of the assignment in trust for the
benefit of the Interested Parties as may be reasonably necessary for the Trust
Administrator to take any of the actions set forth in the following sentence.
(d) The Trust Administrator is hereby authorized and empowered by
the Owner of a COLT 2005-SN1 Secured Note to execute and deliver in the Trust
Administrator's name any notices, demands, claims, complaints, responses,
affidavits or other documents or
4
instruments in connection with any such proceeding. Any Owner of COLT 2005-SN1
Secured Notes shall furnish the Trust Administrator with any powers of attorney
and other documents and take any other steps which the Trust Administrator may
deem necessary or appropriate to enable the Trust Administrator to carry out its
administrative duties under this Agreement and the Further Transfer and
Administration Agreements. Except to the extent required by the preceding two
sentences, the authority and rights granted to the Trust Administrator in this
Section 3.01 shall be nonexclusive and shall not be construed to be in
derogation of the retention by the Owner of a COLT 2005-SN1 Secured Note of
equivalent authority and rights.
SECTION 3.02 Maintenance of Security Interests in COLT 2005-SN1 Secured
Notes. The Trust Administrator shall, in accordance with its customary
practices, policies and procedures and at its own expense, take such steps as
are necessary to maintain perfection of the security interest created by each
COLT 2005-SN1 Secured Note in the Series 2005-SN1 Lease Assets and other First
Step Purchased Property as set forth in Section 2.09 of the COLT Servicing
Agreement. The Owner of each COLT 2005-SN1 Secured Note hereby authorizes the
Trust Administrator to re-perfect such security interest on behalf of such
Owner, as necessary for any reason.
SECTION 3.03 Covenants, Representations and Warranties of the Trust
Administrator. As of the Series 2005-SN1 Closing Date, the Trust Administrator
hereby makes the following representations, warranties and covenants on which
▇▇▇▇ relies in accepting the COLT 2005-SN1 Secured Notes hereunder and pursuant
to the First Step Secured Notes Assignment, and on which the Issuer shall rely
in accepting the COLT 2005-SN1 Secured Notes and executing and delivering the
Securities under the Further Transfer and Administration Agreements.

shall not release in whole or in part any part of the COLT ▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇
from the security interest securing the related COLT 2005-SN1 Secured Note; and
(ii) No Impairment. The Trust Administrator shall do nothing
to impair the rights or security interest of ▇▇▇▇ or any Interested Party in and
to the First Step Purchased Property.
(b) Upon the execution of this Agreement and the Further Transfer
and Administration Agreements, the Trust Administrator represents and warrants
to the Issuer and ▇▇▇▇, in addition to the representations and warranties in
Sections 4.01 and 4.02 being true as of the date of the closing thereunder, that
as of such closing:
(i) Organization and Good Standing. The Trust Administrator

other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors' rights in general and
by general principles of equity, regardless of whether such enforceability is
considered in a proceeding in equity or at law;
(v) No Violation. The consummation by the Trust Administrator
of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Further Transfer and
Administration Agreements, and the fulfillment by the Trust Administrator of the
terms hereof and thereof, shall not conflict with, result in any breach of any
of the terms and provisions of, or constitute (with or without notice or lapse
of time) a default under, the articles of incorporation or by-laws of the Trust
Administrator, or any indenture, agreement, mortgage, deed of trust or other
instrument to which the Trust Administrator is a party or by which it is bound,
or result in the creation or imposition of any Lien upon any of its properties
pursuant to the terms of any such indenture, agreement, mortgage, deed of trust
or other instrument, other than this Agreement and the Further Transfer and
Administration Agreements, or violate any law or, to the best of the Trust
Administrator's knowledge, any order, rule or regulation applicable to the Trust
Administrator of any court or of any federal or state regulatory body,
administrative agency or other governmental instrumentality having jurisdiction
over the Trust Administrator or any of its properties; and
(vi) No Proceedings. To the Trust Administrator's knowledge,
there are no proceedings or investigations pending, or threatened, before any
court, regulatory body, administrative agency or other tribunal or governmental
instrumentality having jurisdiction over the Trust Administrator or its
properties (A) asserting the invalidity of this Agreement and the Further
Transfer and Administration Agreements or any Securities issued thereunder, (B)
seeking to prevent the issuance of such Securities or the consummation of any of
the transactions contemplated by the Further Transfer and Administration
Agreements, or (C) seeking any determination or ruling that might materially and
adversely affect this Agreement, the performance by the Trust Administrator of
its obligations under, or the validity or enforceability of, the Further
Transfer and Administration Agreements.
6
SECTION 3.04 Purchase of COLT 2005-SN1 Secured Notes Upon Breach of
Covenant. Upon discovery by any of the Trust Administrator, ▇▇▇▇ or any party
under the Further Transfer and Administration Agreements of a breach of any of
the covenants set forth in Sections 3.02 and 3.03, the party discovering such
breach shall give prompt written notice thereof to the other parties thereto. As
of the last day of the second Monthly Period following its discovering or
receiving notice of such breach (or, at the Trust Administrator's election, the
last day of the first Monthly Period so following), the Trust Administrator
shall, unless it shall have cured such breach in all material respects, purchase
from the Owner thereof any COLT 2005-SN1 Secured Note materially and adversely
affected by such breach as determined by such Owner and, on the related
Distribution Date, the Trust Administrator shall pay the Administrative Purchase
Payment. It is understood and agreed that the obligation of the Trust
Administrator to purchase any COLT 2005-SN1 Secured Note with respect to which
such a breach has occurred and is continuing shall, if such obligation is
fulfilled, constitute the sole remedy against the Trust Administrator for such
breach available to ▇▇▇▇ or any Interested Party.
SECTION 3.05 Administration Fee; Payment of Certain Expenses by Trust
Administrator. The Trust Administrator is entitled to receive the Administration
Fee out of payments on the COLT 2005-SN1 Secured Notes. The Trust Administrator
shall also be entitled to Investment Earnings as, and to the extent, set forth
in the Further Transfer and Administration Agreements. Subject to any
limitations on the Trust Administrator's liability under the Further Transfer
and Administration Agreements, the Trust Administrator shall be required to pay
all expenses incurred by it in connection with its activities under this
Agreement and under the Further Transfer and Administration Agreements
(including fees and disbursements of the Issuer, any trustees (including of the
CARAT Indenture Trustee pursuant to Section 6.7 of the CARAT Indenture) and
independent accountants, taxes imposed on the Trust Administrator, expenses
incurred in connection with distributions and reports to holders of Securities
and all other fees and expenses not expressly stated under this Agreement or the
Further Transfer and Administration Agreements to be for the account of the
holders of Securities).
SECTION 3.06 Trust Administrator's Accounting. On each Determination Date
under a Further Transfer and Administration Agreement, the Trust Administrator
shall deliver to each of the trustees and other applicable parties under the
Further Transfer and Administration Agreements and to ▇▇▇▇ and the Rating
Agencies a Trust Administrator's Accounting with respect to the immediately
preceding Monthly Period executed by the President or any Vice President of the
Trust Administrator containing all information necessary to each such party for
making any distributions required by the Further Transfer and Administration
Agreements, and all information necessary to each such party for sending any
statements required under the Further Transfer and Administration Agreements.
COLT 2005-SN1 Secured Notes to be purchased by the Trust Administrator under
Sections 3.06 or 5.04 or to be repurchased by ▇▇▇▇ or GMAC under the Further
Transfer and Administration Agreements as of the last day of any Monthly Period
shall be identified by the name of the state identified on such COLT 2005-SN1
Secured Note (as set forth in the Schedule of Secured Notes). With respect to
any COLT 2005-SN1 Secured Notes for which ▇▇▇▇ is the Owner, the Trust
Administrator shall deliver to ▇▇▇▇ such accountings relating to such COLT
2005-SN1 Secured Notes and the actions of the Trust Administrator with respect

and the Further Transfer and Administration Agreements, no later than each

Warranty Secured Note, payments shall be applied in the same manner.
ARTICLE IV
REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES
SECTION 4.01 Representations and Warranties as to the COLT 2005-SN1
Secured Notes. GMAC makes the following representations and warranties as to the
COLT 2005-SN1 Secured Notes related thereto on which ▇▇▇▇ relies in accepting
the COLT 2005-SN1 Secured Notes. Such representations and warranties speak as of
the Series 2005-SN1 Closing Date, and shall survive the sale, transfer and
assignment of the COLT 2005-SN1 Secured Notes and the other First Step Purchased
Property to ▇▇▇▇ and the subsequent assignment and transfer pursuant to the
Further Transfer and Administration Agreements:
(a) Custody of COLT 2005-SN1 Secured Notes. GMAC has instructed the
Secured Note Registrar to identify the CARAT Indenture Trustee as the registered
holder of the COLT 2005-SN1 Secured Notes, in each case in the Secured Note
Register.
(b) Terms of COLT 2005-SN1 Secured Notes. Each COLT 2005-SN1 Secured
Note: (i) was issued by COLT to fund a portion of the purchase price of the
related pool of Series 2005-SN1 Lease Assets, (ii) has created or shall create a
valid, binding and enforceable first priority security interest in favor of GMAC
or the COLT Indenture Trustee on behalf of GMAC in the Series 2005-SN1 Lease
Assets, which security interest is assignable by GMAC to ▇▇▇▇, (iii) contains
enforceable provisions to render the rights and remedies of the holder thereof
adequate for realization against the collateral of the benefits of the security,
(iv) shall yield interest at the rate set forth in such COLT 2005-SN1 Secured
Note and (v) prior to the sale of the COLT 2005-SN1 Secured Notes to ▇▇▇▇ under
this Agreement, the COLT 2005-SN1 Secured Notes constitute "chattel paper,"
"payment intangibles," "promissory notes" or "certificated securities" within
the meaning of the applicable UCC.
(c) Binding Obligation. Each COLT 2005-SN1 Secured Note represents
the genuine, legal, valid and binding payment obligation of COLT thereon, in
each case enforceable by the holder thereof in accordance with its terms, except
as enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or
similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors' rights in general and by
equity, regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding
in equity or at law.
(d) COLT 2005-SN1 Secured Notes in Force. No COLT 2005-SN1 Secured
Note has been satisfied, subordinated or rescinded, and the related Series
2005-SN1 Lease Assets securing each such COLT 2005-SN1 Secured Note have not
been released from the Lien of the related COLT 2005-SN1 Secured Note in whole
or in part.
8
(e) No Waiver or Amendment. Since the Series 2005-SN1 Closing Date,
no provision of a COLT 2005-SN1 Secured Note has been waived, amended or
modified in any respect.
(f) No Defenses. No right of rescission, setoff, counterclaim or
defense has been asserted or threatened with respect to any COLT 2005-SN1
Secured Note.
(g) No Liens. To the best of GMAC's knowledge: (1) there are no
liens or claims that have been filed for work, labor or materials affecting any
Series 2005-SN1 Lease Assets securing any COLT 2005-SN1 Secured Note that are or
may be liens prior to, or equal or coordinate with, the security interest in the
Series 2005-SN1 Lease Assets granted by the COLT 2005-SN1 Secured Note and (2)
no tax lien has been filed and no claim related thereto is being asserted with
respect to any COLT 2005-SN1 Secured Note; no contribution failure has occurred
with respect to any Pension Plan which is sufficient to give rise to a lien
under Section 302(f) of ERISA with respect to any COLT 2005-SN1 Secured Note.
(h) Good Title. No COLT 2005-SN1 Secured Note has been sold,
transferred, assigned or pledged by GMAC to any Person other than ▇▇▇▇.
Immediately prior to the conveyance of the COLT 2005-SN1 Secured Notes pursuant
to this Agreement and the First Step Secured Notes Assignment, GMAC had good and
marketable title thereto, free of any Lien. Upon execution and delivery of this
Agreement by GMAC, ▇▇▇▇ shall have all of the right, title and interest of GMAC
in and to the COLT 2005-SN1 Secured Notes, the unpaid indebtedness evidenced
thereby and the collateral security therefor, free of any Lien.
(i) Lawful Assignment. No COLT 2005-SN1 Secured Note was issued, or
is subject to the laws of, any jurisdiction the laws of which would make
unlawful the sale, transfer and assignment of such COLT 2005-SN1 Secured Note
under this Agreement, the Trust Sale and Administration Agreement or the CARAT
Indenture, as applicable.
(j) All Filings Made. All filings (including UCC filings) necessary

in the First Step Purchased Property have been made. Other than the security
interest granted to ▇▇▇▇ pursuant to this Agreement, GMAC has not pledged,
assigned, sold, granted a security interest in, or otherwise conveyed any of the
COLT 2005-SN1 Secured Notes; GMAC has not authorized the filing of, and is not
aware of, any financing statements against GMAC that include a description of
collateral covering the COLT 2005-SN1 Secured Notes other than the financing
statements relating to the security interests granted to ▇▇▇▇ under this
Agreement, or any financing statement that has been terminated. GMAC is not
aware of any judgment or tax lien filings against it.
(k) Maturity of COLT 2005-SN1 Secured Notes. Each COLT 2005-SN1
Secured Note has a maturity date on December 15, 2009.
(l) Security Interest Created. While it is the intention of GMAC and
▇▇▇▇ that the transfer and assignment contemplated by this Agreement and the
First Step Secured Notes Assignment shall constitute the sale of the COLT
2005-SN1 Secured Notes from GMAC to ▇▇▇▇, this Agreement creates a valid and
continuing security interest (as defined in the
9
applicable UCC) in the COLT 2005-SN1 Secured Notes in favor of ▇▇▇▇ which
security interest is prior to all other Liens, and is enforceable as such as
against creditors of and purchasers from GMAC.
