             Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm



The Plan Trustees
General Communication, Inc. Qualified
   Employee Stock Purchase Plan

We have audited the accompanying statements of nets assets available for
benefits for General Communication, Inc. Qualified Employee Stock Purchase Plan
as of December 31, 2005 and 2004, and the related statements of changes in net
assets available for benefits for the years then ended. These financial
statements are the responsibility of the Plan's management. Our responsibility
is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards
as established by the Auditing Standards Board (United States) and in accordance
with the auditing standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board
(United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of
material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing
the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as
well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that
our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of General
Communication, Inc. Qualified Employee Stock Purchase Plan as of December 31,
2005 and 2004, and the changes in its net assets available for benefits for the
years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, in conformity with U.S. generally
accepted accounting principles.

Our audits were performed for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic
financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental schedule H, line 4i -
schedule of assets (held at end of year) is presented for purposes of additional
analysis and is not a required part of the basic financial statements but is
supplementary information required by the Department of Labor's Rules and
Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income
Security Act of 1974. The supplemental schedule is the responsibility of the
Plan's management. The supplemental schedule has been subjected to the auditing
procedures applied in the audits of the basic financial statements and, in our
opinion, is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic
financial statements taken as a whole.

                     QUALIFIED EMPLOYEE STOCK PURCHASE PLAN
                          Notes to Financial Statements

(1)      Description of Plan
         The following description of the General Communication, Inc. Qualified
         Employee Stock Purchase Plan ("Plan") provides general information
         only. Participants should refer to the Plan document for a more
         complete description of the Plan's provisions.

            General
            The Plan is a defined contribution plan covering employees of
            General Communication, Inc. ("GCI") and affiliated companies
            (collectively, the "Company") who have completed one year of
            service, as defined in the Plan document. GCI and the Company are
            parties-in-interest.

            Contributions
            The Plan provides for a qualified cash or deferred arrangement as
            defined in Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986
            ("Code"). A participant may elect the following methods to make
            employee contributions:

               (1) Salary Reduction Contributions which will not be included in
                   the participant's current earnings for federal income tax
                   purposes but rather are taxable upon distribution, or

               (2) Non-qualified Voluntary Contributions ("after-tax
                   contributions") which will be included in the participant's
                   current earnings for federal income tax purposes and are not
                   taxable upon distribution.

            Eligible employees of the Company may elect to reduce their
            compensation in any amount up to 50% of such compensation subject to
            a maximum of $14,000 and $13,000 in 2005 and 2004, respectively;
            they may contribute up to 10% of their compensation with after-tax
            dollars; or they may elect a combination of salary reduction and
            after-tax contributions.

            The combination of salary reduction, after-tax, forfeited and
            matching contributions cannot exceed the lesser of 100% of any
            employee's compensation (determined after salary reduction), or
            $42,000 and $41,000 for 2005 and 2004, respectively. Compensation
            considered for all Plan purposes is subject to a compensation
            ceiling of $210,000 and $205,000 in 2005 and 2004, respectively.
            Eligible employees were allowed to make catch-up contributions of no
            more than $4,000 and $3,000 in 2005 and 2004, respectively. These
            catch-up contributions are not eligible to receive employer-matching
            contributions.

            The Plan allows 100% matching, as determined each year by the
            Company's Board of Directors, of employee contributions in GCI Class
            A and Class B common stock regardless of how the contribution is
            invested. No more than 10% of any one employee's compensation will
            be matched in any pay period.

            Matching amounts contributed to the Plan by the Company are not
            taxed to the employee until distribution upon retirement, hardship,
            disability, death or termination of employment. Plan earnings are
            taxable to the employee either upon distribution or, in the case of
            GCI common stock distributions, upon eventual disposition of the
            stock.

                                       6                             (Continued)

                          Notes to Financial Statements

            Company matching contributions made to the Plan are initially
            invested in GCI Class A or Class B common stock. After each matching
            contribution is deposited to a participant's account in GCI Class A
            and Class B common stock the contribution may be transferred to
            another available Plan investment at any time.

            Participant Accounts
            Each participant account is credited with the participant's
            contributions, employer matching contributions and allocations of
            Plan earnings. Plan earnings are allocated on a daily basis, based
            upon the number of shares held by each participant account.

            Vesting
            A participant's interest in his or her Salary Reduction
            Contributions and Non-qualified Voluntary Contributions is always
            fully vested and is not subject to forfeiture.

            The participant's interest in the Company matched portion of their
            account ("Matching Account") is vested based upon years of service
            with the Company (as defined in the Plan document), in accordance
            with the following schedule:

                               Years of Service            Vested Percentage
                          --------------------------     ---------------------
                          Less than 1                              0%
                          1 or more but less than 2               20%
                          2 or more but less than 3               30%
                          3 or more but less than 4               45%
                          4 or more but less than 5               60%
                          5 or more but less than 6               80%
                          6 or more                              100%

            Any portion of a participant's account which is forfeitable shall be
            forfeited on the earlier of the date a terminated participant
            receives a distribution or the date on which the participant
            experiences five consecutive one-year breaks in service (as defined
            in the Plan document).

            A participant's interest in their Matching Account fully vests
            without regard to the number of years of service when the
            participant, while still employed: (i) attains Normal Retirement Age
            (as defined in the Plan document) and retires under the terms of the
            Plan; (ii) dies; or (iii) becomes totally and permanently disabled.
            A participant's interest in their Matching Account fully vests upon
            the termination or partial termination of the Plan or upon complete
            discontinuance of Company contributions.

            If a participant terminates participation for any reason other than
            attainment of Normal Retirement Age and retirement, death or
            disability while any portion of his or her account in the Plan is
            forfeitable, and receives a distribution of his or her vested
            account balance attributable to Company matching contributions not
            later than the close of the fifth Plan year following the Plan year
            in which participation terminated, then upon becoming an eligible
            employee, the participating employee will have the right to repay
            the distribution to the Plan in accordance with Plan provisions. The
            shares of that participating employee's account previously forfeited
            will be restored.

                                       7                             (Continued)

            Forfeitures
            If a participating employee terminates participation for any reason
            other than attainment of Normal Retirement Age and retirement, death
            or disability, that portion of his or her account attributable to
            Company matching contributions which has not vested will be
            forfeited. All forfeited amounts are used to reduce future Company
            matching contributions. During 2005 and 2004, employer contributions
            were reduced by $160,000 and $132,000, respectively, from forfeited
            nonvested accounts. At December 31, 2005, $138,000 had been
            forfeited but had not yet been used to reduce the Company's matching
            contribution.

            Participant Loans
            Participants may borrow from their accounts a minimum of $1,000 up
            to a maximum equal to the lesser of $50,000 or 50% of the portion of
            their account balance comprised of participant contributions and
            earnings upon such contributions. Loan transactions are treated as a
            transfer to (from) the appropriate investment fund (from) to the
            participant's loan. Loan terms range from one to five years. Loans
            are secured by the vested balance in the participant's account and
            earn interest at a fixed rate calculated at the loan date. The fixed
            rate is calculated using the prime rate reported in the Wall Street
            Journal at the loan date plus two percent. Principal and interest
            are paid ratably through semi-monthly payroll deductions.

(2)      Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
         The Plan financial statements are based on the accrual method of
         accounting in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.
         Plan investments are stated at fair value.

         In preparing the financial statements, the Plan administrator is
         required to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the
         reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent
         assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and
         additions and deductions to (from) net assets for the period. Actual
         results could differ from those estimates and assumptions.

         At December 31, 2005 the fair values of GCI Class A common stock,
         Comcast Corporation Class A common stock, and AT&T Corporation common
         stock are based on the average of the bid and ask prices during the day
         as listed on the National Association of Securities Dealers Automated
         Quotation (NASDAQ) National Market System. At December 31, 2005 the
         fair value of GCI Class B common stock is based on the average of the
         bid and ask prices listed on the Over-the-Counter market Bulletin Board
         system. GCI Class B common stock is convertible share-for-share into
         GCI Class A common stock. Mutual fund investments are carried at fair
         value, as determined by individual fund management, based upon quoted
         market prices.

                     QUALIFIED EMPLOYEE STOCK PURCHASE PLAN
                          Notes to Financial Statements

         The Common/Collective Trust invests primarily in money market
         instruments and guaranteed investment contracts. The Plan's ownership
         in the Common/Collective Trust is carried at fair value based on the
         investment's net asset value per unit. Money market instruments are
         valued at amortized cost. The investment contracts in the
         Common/Collective Trust with benefit responsive features are carried at
         cost plus accrued interest. Synthetic investment contracts are stated
         at the contract book value which approximates amortized cost.

         Net appreciation and net depreciation in the current value of
         investments includes realized gains and losses on investments sold or
         disposed of during the year and unrealized gains and losses on
         investments held at year end. Investment income is recorded when
         earned.

         Pending Settlements represent the value of sold or purchased securities
         during the three-business day settlement period.

         Purchases and sales of securities are recorded on a trade-date basis.

(3)      Administration of Plan Assets
         Merrill Lynch is the Plan's recordkeeper and asset trustee.
         Administrative expenses related to the Plan of $18,000 and $17,000 for
         the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively, are paid
         directly by the Company to the recordkeeper and asset trustee. The
         asset trustee charges trade fees for all transactions in common stock
         investments. Trade fees for mutual fund investments, if any, are
         described in each fund's prospectus. Company employees provide
         administrative support to the Plan but no employee receives
         compensation from the Plan.

(4)      Amendment or Termination
         The Company's Board of Directors has reserved the right to amend or
         terminate the Plan. No amendment may reduce the accrued benefits of any
         participant or give the Company any interest in the trust assets of the
         Plan. In the event of termination of the Plan, a participant with
         respect to the Plan becomes fully vested in his or her Matching
         Account.

(5)      Investments

(7)      Changes in Net Assets of Non-participant Directed Investments
         Company matching contributions made to the Plan are initially invested
         in GCI Class A and Class B common stock and prior to April 1, 2004,
         were non-participant directed investments. Beginning April 1, 2004, the
         Plan has only participant directed investments. After each matching
         contribution is deposited to a participant's account the contribution
         may be transferred to another available Plan investment at any time.

         The following rollforward summarizes the significant components of the
         changes in net assets of non-participant directed investments during
         the year ended December 31, 2004 (amounts in thousands):

(8)      Income Taxes
         The Plan is qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code pursuant to
         favorable tax determination letters dated December 9, 1987, March 8,
         1988, March 13, 1996, February 23, 2001, and June 25, 2002 obtained
         from the Internal Revenue Service. Although the most recent tax
         determination letter received by the Plan Sponsor does not yet reflect
         recent changes made to the Plan, the Plan Administrator believes the
         Plan is currently designed and is operated in compliance with the
         applicable requirements of the Code. The trust established pursuant to
         the Plan is, therefore, exempt from taxation under Section 501(a) of
         the Code.

(9)      Reconciliation of Financial Statements to Form 5500
         The following is a reconciliation of net assets available for plan

(10)     Risks and Uncertainties
         The Plan invests in various investment securities. Investment
         securities are exposed to various risks such as interest rate, market,
         and credit risks. Due to the level of risk associated with certain
         investment securities, it is at least reasonably possible that changes
         in the values of investment securities will occur in the near term and
         that such changes could materially affect the participants' account
         balances and the amounts reported in the statements of net assets
         available for benefits.
