Explanatory Note

General Communication, Inc. (unless the context otherwise requires, includes its direct and indirect subsidiaries and is referred to as "Company," "we," "us" or "our") is filing this Amendment No. 2 on Form 10-K/A ("Amendment") to its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009, which was originally filed on March 12, 2010 ("Original Filling"), as amended on April 28, 2010 ("Amendment No. 1").

The purpose of this Amendment is to replace two redacted documents filed as exhibits to the Company's Original Filing with two documents as exhibits to this Amendment, one in unredacted form and the other in revised redacted form in accordance with Section 552(b)(4) of the federal Freedom of Information Act and Regulation 200.80(b)(4) adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC").  The two documents are further described in Item 15(b) of this Amendment.  This Amendment does not affect any other parts of, or exhibits to, the Original Filing or other amendments to it, and those unaffected parts or exhibits are not included in this Amendment.

Except as expressly stated in this Amendment, this Amendment continues to speak as of the date of the Original Filing, and the Company has not updated the disclosure contained in the Amendment to reflect events that have occurred since the filing of the Original Filing.  Accordingly, this Amendment must be read in conjunction with the Company's other filings, if any, made with the SEC subsequent to the filing of the Original Filing, including Amendment No. 1 and other amendments to those filings, if any.
