Exhibit 3.1
RESTATED ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION

OF

GENERAL COMMUNICATION, INC.


The following are the Restated Articles of Incorporation of General
Communication, Inc., adopted by the Board of Directors of that corporation by a
unanimous vote at a meeting held on November 27, 2000, and are executed by that
corporation through its president and its secretary and verified by its
secretary. These Restated Articles of Incorporation correctly set forth, without
change, all of the operative provisions of the Articles of Incorporation as
amended up to that time, and these Restated Articles of Incorporation supersede
the original Articles of Incorporation and all amendments to them.


ARTICLE I

The name of the corporation is General Communication, Inc.
("Corporation").


ARTICLE II

The duration of this Corporation shall be perpetual.


ARTICLE III

The Corporation is organized for the purposes of transacting any and
all lawful business for which corporations may be incorporated under the Alaska
Corporations Code (AS 10.06).


ARTICLE IV

(a) The total number of shares of stock which the Corporation shall
have authority to issue is one hundred eleven million shares divided into the
following classes:

(i) One hundred million shares of Class A Common Stock;


RESTATED ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION (2001) Page 1
(ii) Ten million shares of Class B Common Stock; and

(iii) One million shares of Preferred Stock.

(b) Each share of Class A Common Stock shall be identical in all
respects with the Class B Common Stock, except that each holder of Class A
Common Stock shall be entitled to one vote for each share of such stock held,
and each holder of Class B Common Stock shall be entitled to ten votes for each
share of such stock held.

(c) The Board of Directors is authorized, subject to the provisions of
this Article IV, to provide for the issuance of Preferred Stock from time to
time in one or more series, specifying the number of shares initially
constituting the series, with such distinctive serial designations, rights,
preferences and limitations of the shares of each such series, including but not
limited to terms and conditions under which the shares may be redeemed, in whole
or in part, as the Board of Directors shall establish. The board is further
authorized to increase or decrease, but not below the number of shares then
outstanding, the number of shares of a series after the issuance of shares of
that series.

(d) Notwithstanding the fixing of the number of shares constituting a
particular series upon the issuance thereof, the Board of Directors may, at any
time thereafter, authorize the issuance of additional shares of the same series
or may reduce the number of shares constituting such series, provided that such
number shall not be reduced to less than the number of shares of such series
then issued and outstanding.

(e) Except as may be determined by the Board of Directors of the
Corporation pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Article IV with respect to the
Preferred Stock, and except as otherwise expressly required by the laws of the
state of Alaska, as then in effect, the holders of the Class A Common Stock and
the holders of the Class B Common Stock shall vote with the holders of voting
shares of the Preferred Stock, if any, as one class with respect to the election
of directors and with respect to all other matters to be voted on by
stockholders of the Corporation.

(f) Except as otherwise expressly required by law, any and all rights,
titles, interests and claims in or to any dividends declared by the Corporation
whether in cash, stock or otherwise, which are unclaimed by the shareholder
entitled thereto for a period of six years after the close of business on the
payment date, shall be and be deemed to be extinguished and abandoned; and such
unclaimed dividends in the possession of the Corporation, its transfer agents or
other agents or depositories, shall at such time become the absolute property of
the Corporation, free and clear of any and all claims of any person whatsoever.

(g) Each share of Class B Common Stock shall be convertible, at the
option of the holder thereof, into one share of Class A Common Stock. To
exercise the conversion option, a holder of Class B shares must deliver the
certificate or certificates representing the shares of Class B Common Stock to
be converted, duly endorsed in


RESTATED ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION (2001) Page 2
blank, to the Secretary of the Corporation, and at the same time, notify the
Secretary in writing of such holder's desire to so convert and instruct the
Secretary as to the number of shares he or she wishes converted. Upon receipt by
the Secretary of the foregoing certificates and instructions, the Corporation
shall cause to be issued to the holder of the Class B Common Stock one share of
Class A Common Stock for each share of Class B Common Stock requested to be
converted, issuing and delivering to such holder certificates for shares of
Class A Common Stock issued upon such conversion and all shares of Class B
Common Stock remaining unconverted, if any, represented by such certificates. A
number of shares of Class A Common Stock equal to the number of shares of Class
B Common Stock outstanding shall, from time to time, be set aside and reserved
for issuance upon conversion of Class B Common Stock. Class A Common Stock shall
not be convertible into Class B Common Stock.

(h) At each election for directors, every shareholder entitled to vote
at such election will have the right to vote in person or by proxy, the number
of shares owned by that shareholder for as many persons as there are directors
to be elected and for whose election that shareholder has a right to vote, and
such a shareholder will not be allowed to cumulate that shareholder's votes.

(i) The Corporation will have the power to redeem and otherwise buy
back a portion or all of any or all classes or series of shares of its stock as
allowed by law, including AS 10.06.325, and as the Board of Directors, in its
sole discretion, will deem advisable.


ARTICLE V

(a) The governing body of this Corporation shall be a Board of
Directors. The number of directors shall be determined in the manner provided in
the Bylaws of the Corporation; provided, however, that the number of directors
shall not be less than three nor more than twelve.

(b) Upon the establishment of the Board of Directors of the
Corporation as having three or more members ("Class Date"), that board will be
divided into three classes: Class I, Class II and Class III. Each such class
will consist, as nearly as possible, of one-third of the whole number of the
Board of Directors. Directors in office on the Class Date will be divided among
such classes and in such manner, consistent with the provisions of this Article
V, as the Board of Directors may determine by resolution. The initial Class I
directors so determined shall serve until the next annual meeting of
stockholders of the Corporation following such date. The initial Class II
directors so determined shall serve until the second annual meeting of
stockholders of the Corporation following such date. The initial Class III
directors so determined shall serve until the third annual meeting of
stockholders of the Corporation following such date. In the case of each such
class, such


RESTATED ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION (2001) Page 3
directors shall serve, subject to their earlier death, resignation or removal in
accordance with these Articles of Incorporation, the Bylaws of the Corporation
and the laws of the State of Alaska, until their respective successors shall be
elected and shall qualify. At each annual meeting of stockholders after the date
of such filing, the directors chosen to succeed those whose terms shall have
expired shall be elected to hold office for a term to expire at the third
succeeding annual meeting of stockholders after their election and, subject to
their earlier death, resignation or removal in accordance with these Articles of
Incorporation, the Bylaws of the Corporation and the laws of the State of
Alaska, until their respective successors shall be elected and shall qualify. If
the number of directors is changed, any increase or decrease shall be
apportioned among such classes so as to maintain all classes as equal in number
as possible, and any additional director elected to any class shall hold office
for a term which shall coincide with the terms of the other directors in such
class. Any vacancy occurring on the Board of Directors caused by death,
resignation, removal or otherwise, and any newly created directorship resulting
from an increase in the number of directors on that Board, may be filled by the
directors then in office, although such directors are less than a quorum, or by
the sole remaining director. Each director chosen to fill a vacancy or newly
created directorship shall hold office until the next election of the class for
which such director shall have been chosen and, subject to that director's
earlier death, resignation or removal in accordance with these Articles of
Incorporation, the Bylaws of the Corporation and the laws of the State of
Alaska, until that director's successor shall be duly elected and shall qualify.

(c) The Corporation shall have the power to issue and sell any stock,
in exchange for such consideration (whether cash, services, assets or stock of
or any interest in any business, or any other property, real or personal,
whatsoever) as the Board of Directors, in its sole discretion, shall deem
advisable. Any stock so issued or sold by the Corporation shall be deemed fully
paid and non-assessable.


ARTICLE VI

The capital stock of this Corporation shall not be assessable. It
shall be issued as fully paid, and the private property of the stockholders
shall not be liable for the debts, obligations or liabilities of this
Corporation.


ARTICLE VII

No shareholder of the Corporation shall have any preemptive right to
subscribe for, purchase or receive, or to be offered the opportunity to
subscribe for, purchase or receive, any part of any shares of stock of the
Corporation of any class, whether now or hereafter authorized and whether
unissued shares or not, at any time issued or sold by the Corporation, or any
part of any options, warrants, rights, bonds,


RESTATED ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION (2001) Page 4
debentures or other evidences of indebtedness or any other securities of the
Corporation convertible into, exchangeable or exercisable for, or otherwise
entitling the holder thereof to purchase or receive, any such shares. Any and
all of such shares, options, warrants, rights, bonds, debentures or other
evidences of indebtedness or other securities of the Corporation convertible
into, exchangeable or exercisable for, or otherwise entitling the holder thereof
to purchase or receive, any such shares may be issued and disposed of by the
Board of Directors on such terms and for such consideration, so far as may be
permitted by applicable law, and to such person or persons, as the Board of
Directors in its absolute discretion may deem advisable.


ARTICLE VIII

The Corporation shall indemnify, to the full extent permitted by, and
in the manner permissible under, the laws of the State of Alaska and any other
applicable laws, any person made or threatened to be made a party to an action
or proceeding, whether criminal, civil, administrative or investigative, other
than an action by or in the right of the Corporation, by reason of the fact that
the person is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of this Corporation
or is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director or officer,
employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, or
other enterprise. The foregoing provisions of this Article VIII will be deemed
to be a contract between this Corporation and each director and officer who
serves in such capacity at any time while this Article VIII is in effect, and
any repeal or modification of this Article VIII shall not affect any rights or
obligations then existing with respect to any statement of facts then or
theretofore existing or any action, suit or proceeding theretofore or thereafter
brought based in whole or in part upon any such statement of facts. The
foregoing rights of indemnification shall not be deemed exclusive of any other
rights to which any director or officer or his legal representative may be
entitled apart from the provisions of this Article VIII.


ARTICLE IX

As of the date of these Restated Articles of Incorporation, the
Corporation had no alien affiliates.


ARTICLE X

Only the Board of Directors is expressly authorized and empowered to
adopt, alter, amend or repeal any provision or all of the Bylaws of this
Corporation, to the exclusion of the outstanding shares of the Corporation.


RESTATED ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION (2001) Page 5
ARTICLE XI

By the affirmative vote of at least 75% of the directors, the Board of
Directors may designate an Executive Committee, all of whose members shall be
directors, to manage and operate the affairs of the Corporation or particular
properties or enterprises of the Corporation. Subject to limitations provided by
the laws of the State of Alaska, said committee shall have the power to perform
or authorize any act that could be done or accomplished by the majority action
of all the directors of the Corporation. The Board of Directors may by
resolution establish other committees than an Executive Committee and shall
specify with particularity the powers and duties of any such committees.


ARTICLE XII

Notwithstanding the Corporation's incorporation prior to the effective
date of the Alaska Corporations Code, the Corporation elects to be governed by
the provisions of the Alaska Corporations Code not otherwise applicable to it
because the Corporation existed at the effective date of that code and, in
particular, the voting provisions of AS 10.06.504 - 10.06.506 of that code
pertaining to the procedure to amend articles of incorporation and class voting
on amendments to those articles.
