Section 8 - Other Events

Item 8.01 Other Events

     On November 10, 2005, General Communication, Inc. ("GCI" or the "Company")
settled four separate claims with AT&T and AT&T Alascom, Inc. ("Alascom").

     The claims were resolved pursuant to a master agreement. The Agreement is
subject to the approval of the Regulatory Commission of Alaska ("RCA") or,
alternatively, to an explicit determination by the RCA that its approval is not
necessary.

     The claims settled are summarized as follows:

     1)  GCI's claim against Alascom for failure to pay its respective share of
         a pool of access charges on long distance calls paid by pre-paid
         calling cards.

     2)  GCI's claim against AT&T and Alascom for not allowing the Company to
         purchase certain wireline services on the same terms and conditions
         that AT&T offered to other wholesale customers.

     3)  GCI's unfiled claim against Alascom for not allowing the Company to
         purchase private line services at the same price Alascom charges other
         customers.

     4)  Alascom's claims against GCI for overpayment of transport for 1-800
         dialing service calls placed from rural Alaska areas served by GCI.

     The settlement of the claims will result in a payment from AT&T to GCI that
will net the Company approximately $7.5 million after certain costs and
expenses. The gain is expected to be recorded in the fourth quarter of 2005 once
regulatory approval is received or, alternatively, we receive an explicit
determination by the RCA that its approval is not necessary.
