Immediately prior to the Closing, AKD shall distribute to Parent and the AKD Members all cash and cash equivalents of AKD as of the Closing Date.  Parent and the AKD Members shall be responsible for any taxes arising from such distributions.




2.3.  Contributions by GCI.




At the Closing, GCI shall contribute to AKD (a) $10,000,000 in cash or immediately available funds and (b) all of the Denali Interest purchased by GCI pursuant to Section 2.1, and AKD shall sell and issue to GCI a number of AKD Common Units equal to (x) $36,000,000 minus the AKD Net Asset Value (as determined in accordance with this Section 2.3) divided by (y) $10,000.  GCI shall be credited with a capital account balance in AKD of $16,000,000, representing the amount of cash and the agreed value of the Denali Interest contributed by GCI.




2.3.1.  AKD Net Asset Value.  The “AKD Net Asset Value” shall be an amount equal to the sum of (i) $20,000,000, plus (ii) the capitalized cost of capital improvements funded with the proceeds of Interim Capital Loans that have been authorized by GCI in accordance with Section 6.10 and capitalized on the books of AKD in accordance with GAAP, plus (iii) the capitalized cost of capital improvements approved by GCI that are funded with the proceeds of any loan other than the Interim Capital Loans and capitalized on the books of AKD in accordance with GAAP, plus (iv) the Capitalized Refinancing Costs; provided, that (a) if the aggregate amount of AKD Interest-Bearing Obligations as of the Closing Date (as determined in accordance with Section 2.3.2) is greater or less than $12,517,725, then the AKD Net Asset Value shall be decreased by the amount of the excess or increased by the positive amount of the deficit, as applicable, and (b) if the amount of AKD Net Working Capital as of the Closing Date(as determined in accordance with Section 2.3.2) is greater or less than $0.00, then the AKD Net Asset Value shall be decreased by the positive amount of the deficit or increased by the amount of the excess, as applicable.




2.3.2.  Closing Adjustment Schedule.




(a)  Not less than five Business Days before the Closing Date, the AKD Members shall deliver to GCI a schedule signed by AKD and the AKD Members (the “Closing Adjustment Schedule”) setting forth in detail the AKD Interest-Bearing Obligations and the AKD Net Working Capital as of the Closing Date.  The Closing Adjustment Schedule shall be prepared by AKD and the AKD Members in good faith and in a manner consistent with GAAP and the balance sheets included in the AKD Financial Statements.  AKD and the AKD Members shall provide GCI with such other information concerning the Closing Adjustment Schedule as GCI may reasonably request.  The Closing Adjustment Schedule will be prepared as of the Closing Date but will be consistent in form with the AKD Interest-Bearing Obligations and the AKD Net Working Capital as of May 31, 2006 set forth on Schedule 2.3.2 attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference.




(b)  The Closing Adjustment Schedule shall be final and binding upon the Parties hereto for all purposes, unless GCI shall notify the AKD Members’ Agent in writing, not later than thirty (30) days from the Closing Date, of a disagreement with the AKD Interest-Bearing Obligations or AKD Net Working Capital reflected in the Closing Adjustment Schedule, in which event the provisions of Section 2.3.2(c) below shall apply.  Such notice of disagreement shall specify all items as to which there is disagreement, and an explanation of the basis for any disagreement.  During the 30-day review period, GCI shall have full access to the AKD Group’s books and records during normal business hours and upon reasonable notice, and to the employees, representatives and agents of AKD who prepared, or assisted in the preparation of, the Closing Adjustment Schedule.  GCI’s failure to timely notify AKD in writing of the existence of such a disagreement shall be deemed, for all purposes, GCI’s acceptance of the Closing Adjustment Schedule.




(c)  In the event and to the extent that GCI shall timely notify the AKD Members’ Agent in writing, as provided in Section 2.3.2(b) above, of a disagreement with the Closing Adjustment Schedule (the “Disagreement”), GCI and the AKD Members’ Agent shall attempt, in good faith, to resolve such Disagreement.  In the event that the parties are unable to resolve such Disagreement within ten Business Days from the date of receipt by the AKD Members’ Agent of notice from GCI of the Disagreement, GCI and the AKD Members’ Agent shall jointly select one of the “Big Four” accounting firms, or any successors thereto, to resolve the Disagreement (the “Accountants”).  Each of GCI and the AKD Members’ Agent shall submit to the Accountants its proposal concerning what the Closing Adjustment Schedule should be, and the parties shall submit to the Accountants all relevant financial data, and the Disagreement shall be submitted for final and binding arbitration and resolution before representatives of the Accountants.  In resolving the Disagreement, the Accountants shall only consider those items or amounts in the Closing Adjustment Schedule as to which GCI has disagreed.  After completing their review of the Disagreement, the Accountants shall resolve each item in dispute and confirm their conclusion (and the resulting Closing Adjustment Schedule) in writing to the AKD Members’ Agent and GCI, and the decision of the Accountants regarding such adjustment shall be final and binding upon the parties hereto for all purposes and enforceable in any court of competent jurisdiction.  The fees and costs of the Accountants, if any, in connection with such arbitration shall be paid by the nonprevailing party (either the AKD Members or GCI), whose identity shall be determined by the Accountants.




(d)  Upon determination of the final Closing Adjustment Schedule,  appropriate adjustments shall be made to the AKD Net Asset Value, the number of AKD Common Units issued pursuant to Section 2.3 and the capital account balances of Parent and the AKD Members under Section 2.2 to offset any changes from the Closing Adjustment Schedule.  Schedule 1.3 of the Operating Agreement will thereafter be amended to reflect the adjusted amount of AKD Common Units issued to GCI and Schedule 4.1 of the Operating Agreement will thereafter be amended to reflect the adjusted capital account balances of Parent and the AKD Members.




2.3.3.  Examples.  The examples set forth on Schedule 2.3.3 illustrate the impact of a post-Closing adjustment to the AKD Net Asset Value on the number of AKD Common Units issued to GCI pursuant to this Section 2.3.

Each Party shall promptly notify the others of any facts or other circumstances of which such Party becomes aware or has any knowledge that could give rise to a claim for indemnification under this Agreement by any Party.  No Party will have any obligation to indemnify any Person pursuant to this Agreement with respect to any breach of a representation or warranty unless a notice of such breach is given to the Party against whom indemnification is sought on or prior to the last day of the applicable survival period, except that if a Party has a reasonable basis to believe that an indemnifiable claim will arise and gives notice to the other Party concerning such matter within the survival period, then all rights of such Party to seek indemnification with respect to such matter will survive the expiration of such period for a period of 180 days.  If an indemnifiable claim has not arisen prior to the expiration of that 180-day period but the Party continues to have a reasonable basis to believe that an indemnifiable claim will arise and gives notice to such effect to the other party prior to the end of such 180-day period, then all rights of the Party to seek indemnification with respect to such matter will survive for one additional period of 180 days.  If an indemnifiable claim does not arise prior to the end of the second 180-day period, the rights of the Party to seek indemnification will terminate at the expiration thereof.  If a Party is obligated to indemnify another Party against a particular breach, the indemnity obligation shall extend to all Adverse Consequences, whether occurring before or after the survival period.




10.5.  Basket and Cap.






10.5.1.  Tipping Basket.  AKD, Parent, the AKD Members and the Denali Members (as a group) will have no obligation to indemnify any GCI Indemnitee from and against any Adverse Consequences under Section 10.1 or 10.2 until the GCI Indemnitees (as a group) have suffered Adverse Consequences in the aggregate amount of $100,000 or more arising from, or otherwise related to, directly or indirectly, any of the items set forth in Section 10.1 or 10.2.  If and when the aggregate of such Adverse Consequences exceeds $100,000, the GCI Indemnitees shall be entitled to indemnification against all Adverse Consequences incurred under Section 10.1 or 10.2, including the initial $100,000 of Adverse Consequences.




10.5.2.  Indemnification Cap.  The aggregate indemnification obligations of AKD, Parent, the AKD Members and the Denali Members under Sections 10.1 and 10.2 shall not exceed the sum of (x) $16,000,000 plus (y) the aggregate purchase price for the AKD Common Units purchased by GCI from AKD pursuant to Section 2.4.




10.5.3.  Exceptions.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, there shall be no limitation on any GCI Indemnitee’s right to indemnification from and against any Adverse Consequences arising directly or indirectly out of (a) any breach of any representation, warranty or covenant of AKD, Parent, an AKD Member or a Denali Member that involves an intentional misrepresentation or the commission of fraud by AKD, Parent or such AKD Member or Denali Member or (b) any act or omission or other matter arising prior to Closing that involves a claim by a third party for material misrepresentation, fraud, gross negligence or intentional misconduct, and each GCI Indemnitee shall have all remedies available to it at law and in equity with respect to any such breach, act, omission or matter.




10.6.  Defense of Claims.




The procedures to be followed with respect to the defense and settlement of any claim made by a Third Party which, if true, would give rise to a right on the part of a Party to be indemnified against resulting Adverse Consequences (an “Indemnitee”), in whole or in part, under this Section 10 (a “Claim”) shall be as follows:




(a)  Unless in the reasonable judgment of the Party seeking indemnification under this Section 10 (i) there is a conflict between the positions of the Party against whom indemnification is sought under this Section 10 (the “Indemnifying Party”) and the Indemnitee in conducting the defense of such Claim or (ii) legitimate legal or business considerations would require the Indemnitee to defend or respond to such Claim in a manner different from the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnifying Party shall, by giving notice thereof to the Indemnitee confirming the Indemnifying Party’s obligation under this Section 10 to indemnify the Indemnitee in respect of such Claim, be entitled to assume and control such defense with counsel chosen by it.  The Indemnitee shall be entitled to participate therein after such assumption, but the costs of such participation (other than the costs of providing witnesses or documents at the request of the Indemnifying Party or in response to legal process) following such assumption shall be at the expense of the Indemnitee.  Upon assuming such defense, the Indemnifying Party shall have full right to enter into any compromise or settlement which is dispositive of the matter involved; provided that, except for the settlement of a Claim that involves no obligation of the Indemnitee other than the payment of money for which full indemnification is provided hereunder, the Indemnifying Party shall not settle or compromise any Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnitee, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; and provided, further, that the Indemnifying Party may not consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement in respect of a Claim which does not include an unconditional release of the Indemnitee from all liability in respect of such Claim.




(b)  With respect to a Claim as to which the Indemnifying Party does not have the right to assume the defense under Section 10.6(a) or shall not have exercised its right to assume the defense, the Indemnitee shall assume and control the defense of such Claim with counsel chosen by it and the Indemnifying Party shall be obligated to pay all reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses of the Indemnitee incurred in connection with such defense.  The Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to participate in the defense of such Claim at its own expense.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Indemnitee shall not be required to defend any Claim under this Section 10.6(b) unless (i) the Indemnifying Party confirms its obligation under this Section 10 to indemnify the Indemnitee in respect of such Claim by written notice to the Indemnitee and (ii) if requested by the Indemnitee, the Indemnifying Party provides reasonable assurance to the Indemnitee of the Indemnifying Party’s financial ability to indemnify the Indemnitee against the costs of defense and any liability that may result from such Claim, including providing a bond or other security therefor if reasonably requested by the Indemnitee.  If the Indemnitee is not required to defend any Claim under the immediately preceding sentence, it shall owe no duties to the Indemnifying Party with respect to such Claim, and may defend, fail to defend or settle such Claim without affecting its right to indemnity hereunder.  If the Indemnitee is required to defend any such Claims under this Section 10.6(b), it shall not settle or compromise the Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.




(c)  If in the reasonable judgment of the Indemnitee it would be materially harmed or otherwise prejudiced by not entering into a proposed settlement or compromise as to which the Indemnifying Party withholds consent, the Indemnitee may enter into such settlement or compromise, but such settlement or compromise shall not be conclusive as to the existence or amount of the liability of the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnitee or any Third Party.




(d)  Both the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnitee shall cooperate fully with one another in connection with the defense, compromise or settlement of any Claim, including without limitation making available to the other all pertinent information and witnesses within its control at reasonable intervals during normal business hours.




SECTION 11




TERMINATION




11.1.  Right to Terminate.




The parties may terminate this Agreement as provided below:




(a)  GCI, the AKD Members’ Agent and the Denali Members’ Agent may terminate this Agreement by mutual written consent at any time prior to the Closing.




(b)  GCI may terminate this Agreement by giving written notice to the AKD Members’ Agent and the Denali Members’ Agent at any time prior to the Closing (i) in the event AKD, any AKD Member or any Denali Member has breached any representation, warranty or covenant contained in this Agreement in a way that would result in the nonfulfillment of the conditions to the obligations of GCI hereunder, GCI has notified such Party of the breach, and the breach has not been cured within 10 days after the notice of breach or such longer period as agreed by the parties or (ii) if the Closing has not occurred on or before June 1, 2007 because of the failure of any condition precedent to the obligations of GCI to consummate the Closing (unless the failure results primarily from GCI breaching any representation, warranty or covenant contained in this Agreement).




(c)  The AKD Members’ Agent or the Denali Members’ Agent may terminate this Agreement by giving written notice to GCI at any time prior to the Closing (i) in the event GCI has breached any representation, warranty or covenant contained in this Agreement in a way that would result in the nonfulfillment of the conditions to the obligations of AKD, the AKD Members and the Denali Members hereunder, the AKD Members’ Agent or the Denali Members’ Agent has notified GCI of the breach, and the breach has not been cured within 10 days after the notice of breach or such longer period as agreed by the parties or (ii) if the Closing has not occurred on or before June 1, 2007 because of the failure of any condition precedent to the obligations of AKD, Parent, the AKD Members or the Denali Members to consummate the Closing (unless the failure results primarily from AKD, any AKD Member or any Denali Member breaching any representation, warranty or covenant contained in this Agreement).




11.2.  Effect of Termination.




The termination of this Agreement by a party pursuant to Section 11.1(b) or (c) will in no way limit any obligation or liability of any other Party based on or arising from a breach or default by such other Party with respect to any of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement prior to the termination, and the terminating party will be entitled to seek all relief to which it is entitled under applicable law.




11.3.  Specific Performance.




In view of (a) the complexities and uncertainties in measuring actual damages to be sustained by reason of the failure of a Party to perform this Agreement strictly in accordance with the specific terms hereof, and (b) the uniqueness of the transactions contemplated herein, each of the Parties acknowledges and agrees that: (i) the remedy at law for a breach of this Agreement would be inadequate, and (ii) the other Parties would be irreparably damaged if any Party fails to perform the provisions of this Agreement strictly in accordance with their specific terms.  Therefore, it is expressly agreed that, in addition to any other remedy to which a nonbreaching Party may be entitled, at law or in equity, the nonbreaching Parties shall be entitled to injunctive relief to prevent breaches of the provisions of this Agreement and to specifically enforce the terms and provisions hereof in any action instituted in any court of the United States or any state thereof having subject matter jurisdiction thereof.




SECTION 12




MISCELLANEOUS




12.1.  Arbitration.




The Parties will attempt in good faith to resolve any controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other Transaction Agreement through discussions between the senior management of the Parties.  If these discussions are unsuccessful, the Parties agree that any action asserting a claim by one Party against any other Party or Parties hereto (collectively, the “Disputing Parties”) arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other Transaction Agreement shall, on the written notice by one Disputing Party to the others, be submitted to binding arbitration to be held in Seattle, Washington.  The arbitration shall be conducted by and in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association.  The Disputing Parties shall hold an initial meeting within thirty (30) days from receipt of notice from the requesting Party of a request for arbitration.  Unless otherwise agreed in writing, they will jointly appoint a mutually acceptable arbitrator not affiliated with any of the Disputing Parties.  If they are unable to agree upon such appointment within thirty (30) days of the initial meeting, the Disputing Parties shall obtain an odd numbered list of not less than five (5) potential arbitrators from the Superior Court for the Third Judicial District, State of Alaska.  Each Disputing Party shall alternatively strike a single name from the list until only one name remains, with such person to be the arbitrator.  The Disputing Party requesting the arbitration shall strike the first name.  Each Disputing Party shall pay an equal share of the costs related to the arbitration, unless the arbitrator’s decision provides otherwise.  Each Disputing Party shall bear its own costs to prepare for and participate in the arbitration.  Each Disputing Party shall produce at the request of any other Disputing Party, at least thirty (30) days in advance of the hearing, all documents to be submitted at the hearing and such other documents as are relevant to the issues or likely to lead to relevant information.  The arbitrator shall promptly render a written decision, in accordance with Alaska law and supported by substantial evidence in the record.  The prevailing Party shall be entitled to recover reasonable attorneys’ fees, costs, charges and expended or incurred therein, if the arbitrator’s decision so provides.  Failure to apply Alaska law, or entry of a decision that is not based on substantial evidence in the record, shall be additional grounds for modifying or vacating an arbitration decision.  Judgment on any arbitration award shall be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.  In any subsequent arbitration, the decision in any prior arbitration of this Agreement shall not be deemed conclusive of the rights among the parties hereunder.




12.2.  Governing Law.




This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Alaska without giving effect to any choice or conflict of laws rule or provision that would cause the application of the domestic substantive laws of any other jurisdiction.




12.3.  Notices.




All notices and other communications required or permitted hereunder shall be in writing (including any facsimile transmission or similar writing), and may be given by any means selected by the sender.  Each such notice or other communication shall be effective (i) if sent by facsimile to the recipient’s fax number given below, when such facsimile is transmitted and the sender’s facsimile machine confirms transmission, (ii) if sent by reputable overnight courier to the recipient’s address given below, one Business Day after being delivered to such courier or (iii) if sent by any other means, when actually received.

12.4.  Entire Agreement, Assignability, Etc.




This Agreement (including the Schedules and Exhibits attached hereto) (i) constitutes the entire agreement, and supersedes all other prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among the Parties, or any of them, with respect to the transactions and matters contemplated hereby, including the Amended and Restated Memorandum of Understanding dated January 26, 2006 among GCI, AKD and Denali, as amended, and (ii) is not intended to confer upon any Person other than the Parties hereto any rights or remedies hereunder.  No Party may assign its rights or delegate its duties under this Agreement without the consent of the other Parties, and any purported assignment or delegation without such consent shall be null and void.




12.5.  Counterparts.




This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, no one of which need be signed by all Parties, each of which shall be deemed an original and all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.  This Agreement may be executed or delivered by facsimile.




12.6.  Representations as to Knowledge.




Whenever any statement in this Agreement is made “to its knowledge” or words of similar intent or effect, (a) an individual will be deemed to have knowledge of a particular fact or other matter if (i) that individual is actually aware of that fact or matter, or (ii) a prudent individual could be expected to discover or otherwise become aware of that fact or matter in the course of conducting a reasonably comprehensive investigation regarding the accuracy of any representation or warranty contained in this Agreement; and (b) a Person (other than an individual) will be deemed to have knowledge of a particular fact or other matter if any individual who is serving, or who has at any time served, as a director, officer, general partner, registered agent, general manager, director of engineering, executor or trustee of that Person (or in any similar capacity) has, or at any time had, knowledge of that fact or other matter (as set forth in (i) and (ii) above), and any such individual (and any Party to this Agreement) will be deemed to have conducted a reasonably comprehensive investigation regarding the accuracy of the representations and warranties made herein by that Person or individual.




12.7.  Headings, Terms.




The section headings contained in this Agreement are inserted for convenience only and will not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.  Defined terms are applicable to both singular and plural forms.  All pronouns will be deemed to refer to the masculine, feminine or neuter, as the identity of the Person may require.  The singular or plural includes the other, as the context requires or permits.  The word include (and any variation) is used in an illustrative sense rather than a limiting sense.  The word day means a calendar day.  All references to “Sections” are to sections of this Agreement unless indicated otherwise.




12.8.  Amendments.




This Agreement may be amended only by a written instrument signed by GCI, the AKD Members’ Agent and the Denali Members’ Agent.




12.9.  Waivers.




No waiver by any Party of any default, misrepresentation or breach of warranty or covenant hereunder, whether intentional or not, will be deemed to extend to any prior or subsequent default, misrepresentation or breach of warranty or covenant hereunder or affect in any way any rights arising by virtue of any prior or subsequent such occurrence, and no waiver will be effective unless set forth in writing and signed by the Party against whom such waiver is asserted.




12.10.  Severability.




The invalidity or unenforceability of any term or provision of this Agreement shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remaining terms and provisions hereof.




12.11.  Remedies Cumulative.




Subject to Section 12.1, all remedies of the Parties under this Agreement or any other Transaction Agreement are cumulative with each other and with any other remedies available at law, in equity or by contract.  Any decision to pursue one remedy shall not prevent a Party from pursuing any other remedy at the same or any subsequent time.




12.12.  Expenses.




Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, each Party will bear all costs and expenses (including all legal, accounting ad tax related fees and expenses) incurred by it in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby.




12.13.  Construction.




The Parties have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement.  In the event an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement will be construed as if drafted jointly by the Parties and no presumption or burden of proof will arise favoring or disfavoring any Party by virtue of the authorship of any of the provisions of this Agreement.  The Parties intend that each representation, warranty and covenant contained herein will have independent significance.  If any Party breaches any representation, warranty or covenant contained herein in any respect, the fact that there exists another representation, warranty or covenant relating to the same subject matter (regardless of the relative levels of specificity) which the Party has not breached will not detract from or mitigate the fact that the Party is in breach of the first representation, warranty or covenant.




12.14.  AKD Members’ Agent and Denali Members’ Agent.




Pacificom shall act as the “AKD Members’ Agent,” and Pacificom shall act as the Denali Members’ Agent under this Agreement.  Parent and each AKD Member hereby authorizes and appoints the AKD Members’ Agent, and each Denali Member hereby authorizes and appoints the Denali Members’ Agent, as his or its exclusive agent and attorney-in-fact to act on behalf of such Person with respect to all matters which are the subject of this Agreement, including, without limitation, (a) receiving or giving all notices, instructions, other communications, consents or agreements that may be necessary, required or given hereunder, (b) agreeing to any amendment of this Agreement or any other Transaction Agreement or waiving any right or remedy of Parent and the AKD Members or the Denali Members (as the case may be) hereunder or thereunder, and (c) asserting, settling, compromising, waiving or defending, or determining not to assert, settle, compromise or defend, (i) any claim which Parent or any AKD Member or Denali Member (as the case may be) may assert, or have the right to assert, against GCI, or (ii) any claim which GCI may assert, or have the right to assert, against Parent or any AKD Member or any Denali Member (as the case may be).  Neither Parent nor any AKD Member shall act with respect to any of the matters which are the subject of this Agreement except through the AKD Members’ Agent, and no Denali Member shall act with respect to any of the matters which are the subject of this Agreement except though the Denali Members’ Agent.




12.15.  Incorporation of Exhibits.




The Exhibits and Schedules identified in this Agreement are incorporated herein by reference and made a part hereof.




12.16.  No Tax Advice.




Each Party hereby acknowledges that any tax advice express or implicit in the provisions of this Agreement is not intended or written to be used, and cannot be used, by any taxpayer for the purpose of avoiding penalties that may be imposed on any taxpayer by the Internal Revenue Service.  Each Party should seek advice based on its particular circumstances from an independent tax advisor.







IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Parties have duly executed this Reorganization Agreement as of the date first above written.
