As previously disclosed, General Communication, Inc. (“GCI”) was unable to file its Form 10-Q with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for the period ended March 31, 2008. In accordance with Nasdaq’s rules, on May 20, 2008, GCI received a Nasdaq staff determination letter stating that GCI is not in compliance with Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 4310(c)(14) because it has            not timely filed with Nasdaq its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2008.

 

The letter states that trading of GCI’s common stock would be suspended on May 29, 2008 and a Form 25-NSE filed with the SEC removing GCI’s securities from listing and registration on The Nasdaq Stock Market unless GCI requests a hearing before a Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Panel no later than 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time on May 27, 2008. GCI intends to appeal the determination and request a            hearing before the Panel, which will automatically stay delisting of the company’s common stock pending the Panel’s review and determination.

 

A copy of GCI’s press release announcing the Staff Determination Letter and GCI’s intention to appeal the determination is attached to this Form 8-K as Exhibit 99.1.
