Item 5.05.	Amendment to the Code of Ethics, or Waiver of a Provision of the Code of Ethics.

On September 27, 2013, the Board of Directors of General Communication, Inc. (“GCI”) adopted a revised Code of Business Conduct & Ethics (“Code”) that amended, restated, and replaced the prior Code of Business Conduct and Ethics applicable to GCI. The revised Code clarifies expectations for employee conduct across all topic areas (e.g., conflicts of interest, insider trading, compliance with laws), emphasizes managerial leadership and responsibility, and introduces a new hotline option for reporting violations of the Code.

 

The amendment of the Code did not relate to or result in any waiver, explicit or implicit, of any provision of the previous Code of Business Conduct and Ethics.

 

A copy of the Code is publicly available on the GCI’s website at www.gci.com under the Investor Relations section.
