Regulatory Accounting and Regulation
|
|
We account for our regulated operations in accordance with the accounting principles for regulated enterprises. This accounting recognizes the economic effects of rate regulation by recording cost and a return on investment as such amounts are recovered through rates authorized by regulatory authorities. Accordingly, plant and equipment is depreciated over lives approved by regulators and certain costs and obligations are deferred based upon approvals received from regulators to permit recovery of such amounts in future years. Our cost studies and depreciation rates for our regulated operations are subject to periodic audits that could result in a change to recorded revenues.
|
|
(f)
|
Earnings per Common Share
|
|
We compute net income (loss) per share of Class A and Class B common stock using the “two class” method. Therefore, basic net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) applicable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common and dilutive common equivalent shares outstanding during the period. The computation of the dilutive net income (loss) per share of Class A common stock assumes the conversion of Class B common stock to Class A common stock, while the dilutive net income (loss) per share of Class B common stock does not assume the conversion of those shares. Additionally in applying the “two-class” method, undistributed earnings (losses) are allocated to both common shares and participating securities. Our restricted stock grants are entitled to dividends and meet the criteria of a participating security.
|
|
Undistributed earnings (losses) for each year are allocated based on the contractual participation rights of Class A and Class B common shares as if the earnings (losses) for the year had been distributed. In accordance with our Articles of Incorporation which provide that, if and when dividends are declared on our common stock in accordance with Alaska corporate law, equivalent dividends shall be paid with respect to the shares of Class A and Class B common stock. Both classes of common stock have identical dividend rights and would therefore share equally in our net assets in the event of liquidation. As such, we have allocated undistributed earnings (losses) on a proportionate basis.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant items subject to estimates and assumptions include the allowance for doubtful receivables, unbilled revenues, accrual of the Universal Service Fund (“USF”) high cost area program support, share-based compensation, inventory reserves, reserve for future customer credits, valuation allowances for deferred income tax assets, depreciable and amortizable lives of assets, the carrying value of long-lived assets including goodwill, cable certificates and wireless licenses, purchase price allocations, deferred lease expense, asset retirement obligations, the accrual of Cost of Goods Sold (exclusive of depreciation and amortization) and the accrual of contingencies and litigation. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Current and long-term debt and capital lease obligations: The fair values of our 2021 Notes, 2019 Notes, 2014 Notes, Rural Utilities Service (“RUS”) debt, CoBank mortgage note payable, and capital leases are based upon quoted market prices for the same or similar issues or on the current rates offered to us for the same remaining maturities. The fair value of our Senior Credit Facility is estimated to approximate the carrying value because this instrument is subject to variable interest rates.
|
|
Other Liabilities: Lease escalation liabilities are valued at the discounted amount of future cash flows using quoted market prices on current rates offered to us. Deferred compensation liabilities are carried at fair value, which is the amount payable as of the balance sheet date. Asset retirement obligations are recorded at their fair value and, over time, the liability is accreted to its present value each period. Our non-employee share-based compensation awards are reported at their fair value at each reporting period.

Industry Segments Data
|
|
Corporate related expenses including engineering, information technology, accounting, legal and regulatory, human resources, and other general and administrative expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 are allocated to our segments using segment margin for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Bad debt expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 is allocated to our segments using a combination of specific identification and allocations based upon segment revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Corporate related expenses and bad debt expense are specifically identified for our Regulated Operations segment and therefore, are not included in the allocations.
|
|
We evaluate performance and allocate resources based on earnings before depreciation and amortization expense, net interest expense, income taxes, share-based compensation expense, accretion expense and non-cash contribution adjustment (“Adjusted EBITDA”). Management believes that this measure is useful to investors and other users of our financial information in evaluating operating profitability as an analytical indicator of income generated to service debt and fund capital expenditures. In addition, multiples of current or projected EBITDA are used to estimate current or prospective enterprise value. The accounting policies of the reportable segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies in note 1 in the “Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements” included in Part II of our December 31, 2010 annual report on Form 10-K. Intersegment sales are recorded at cost plus an agreed upon intercompany profit.
|
|
We earn all revenues through sales of services and products within the United States. All of our long-lived assets are located within the United States of America, except approximately 82% of our undersea fiber optic cable systems which transit international waters and all of our satellite transponders.

In September 2008, the FCC's Office of Inspector General ("OIG") initiated an investigation regarding Alaska DigiTel LLC’s (“Alaska DigiTel”) compliance with program rules and requirements under the Lifeline Program. The request covered the period beginning January 1, 2004 through August 31, 2008 and related to amounts received for Lifeline service. Alaska DigiTel was an Alaska based wireless communications company of which we acquired an 81.9% equity interest on January 2, 2007 and the remaining 18.1% equity interest on August 18, 2008 and was subsequently merged with one of our wholly owned subsidiaries in April 2009. Prior to August 18, 2008, our control over the operations of Alaska DigiTel was limited as required by the FCC upon its approval of our initial acquisition completed in January 2007. We responded to this request on behalf of Alaska DigiTel and the GCI companies as affiliates. On January 18, 2011 we reached an agreement with the FCC and the Department of Justice to settle the matter, which required us to contribute $1.6 million to the United States Treasury and granted us a broad release of claims including those under the False Claims Act. The $1.6 million contribution, of which $154,000, $661,000 and $741,000 were recognized in selling, general and administrative expense in the income statements in the years ending December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008, respectively, was paid in January 2011; and
|
·
|
In August 2010, a GCI-owned aircraft was involved in an accident resulting in five fatalities and injuries to the remaining four passengers on board. We had aircraft and liability insurance coverage in effect at the time of the accident. We cannot predict the likelihood or nature of the total potential claims related to the accident.

In September 2008, the FCC's Office of Inspector General ("OIG") initiated an investigation regarding Alaska DigiTel LLC’s (“Alaska DigiTel”) compliance with program rules and requirements under the Lifeline Program. The request covered the period beginning January 1, 2004 through August 31, 2008 and related to amounts received for Lifeline service. Alaska DigiTel was an Alaska based wireless communications company of which we acquired an 81.9% equity interest on January 2, 2007 and the remaining 18.1% equity interest on August 18, 2008 and was subsequently merged with one of our wholly owned subsidiaries in April 2009. Prior to August 18, 2008, our control over the operations of Alaska DigiTel was limited as required by the FCC upon its approval of our initial acquisition completed in January 2007. We responded to this request on behalf of Alaska DigiTel and the GCI companies as affiliates. On January 18, 2011 we reached an agreement with the FCC and the Department of Justice to settle the matter, which required us to contribute $1.6 million to the United States Treasury and granted us a broad release of claims including those under the False Claims Act. The $1.6 million contribution, of which $154,000, $661,000 and $741,000 were recognized in selling, general and administrative expense in the income statements in the years ending December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008, respectively, was paid in January 2011; and

In August 2010, a GCI-owned aircraft was involved in an accident resulting in five fatalities and injuries to the remaining four passengers on board. We had aircraft and liability insurance coverage in effect at the time of the accident. We cannot predict the likelihood or nature of the total potential claims related to the accident.

Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 2(A), GCI may elect to terminate its use of the Astra upon ninety (90) days’ written notice as set forth in Section 17, and as follows: If GCI elects to terminate this Agreement as to the Astra only, Lessor may within five (5) business days of the date of such notice provide GCI with written notice of Lessor’s intent to put the Astra up for sale. Then, GCI obligations hereunder relating to the Astra (other than the indemnity provisions of Section 13) shall terminate upon the earlier of (i) the sale date of the Astra, or (ii) ninety (90) days from the date of GCI’s termination notice as to the Astra.

Segment Reporting Disclosure Text Block | (7) Industry Segments Data Our reportable segments are business units that offer different products and are each managed separately.
A description of our reportable segments follows:
Consumer - We offer a full range of voice, video, data and wireless services to residential customers.
Network Access - We offer a full range of voice, data and wireless services to common carrier customers.
Commercial - We offer a full range of voice, video, data and wireless services to small businesses, local, national and global businesses, governmental entities and public and private educational institutions.
Managed Broadband - We offer data services to rural school districts, hospitals and health clinics through our SchoolAccess® and ConnectMD® initiatives and managed video conferencing.
Regulated Operations - We offer voice and data services to residential, business, and governmental customers in areas of rural Alaska.
Corporate related expenses including engineering, information technology, accounting, legal and regulatory, human resources, and other general and administrative expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 are allocated to our segments using segment margin for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Bad debt expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 is allocated to our segments using a combination of specific identification and allocations based upon segment revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Corporate related expenses and bad debt expense are specifically identified for our Regulated Operations segment and therefore, are not included in the allocations.
We evaluate performance and allocate resources based on earnings before depreciation and amortization expense, net interest expense, income taxes, share-based compensation expense, accretion expense and non-cash contribution adjustment (“Adjusted EBITDA”). Management believes that this measure is useful to investors and other users of our financial information in evaluating operating profitability as an analytical indicator of income generated to service debt and fund capital expenditures. In addition, multiples of current or projected EBITDA are used to estimate current or prospective enterprise value. The accounting policies of the reportable segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies in note 1 in the “Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements” included in Part II of our December 31, 2010 annual report on Form 10-K. Intersegment sales are recorded at cost plus an agreed upon intercompany profit.
We earn all revenues through sales of services and products within the United States. All of our long-lived assets are located within the United States of America, except approximately 82% of our undersea fiber optic cable systems which transit international waters and all of our satellite transponders.
Summarized financial information for our reportable segments for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 follows (amounts in thousands):

Related Party Transaction Disclosure Text Block | (9) Related Party Transaction In January 2001 we entered into an aircraft operating lease agreement with a company owned by our President and CEO. The lease was amended several times, most recently on May 9, 2011. The amended lease agreement added the lease of a second aircraft. The lease term of the original aircraft may be terminated at any time upon 90 days written notice. The monthly lease rate of the original aircraft is $45,000. The lease term of the second aircraft may be terminated at any time upon 12 months' written notice. The monthly lease rate of the second aircraft is $132,000. In 2001, we paid a deposit of $1.5 million in connection with the lease. The deposit will be repaid to us no later than six months after the agreement terminates.

Subsequent events Text Block | (10) Subsequent Events On July 22, 2011, Holdings entered into an Add-On Term Loan Supplement No. 2 (“Supplement No. 2”) to our Senior Credit Facility. The Supplement No. 2 provided for an additional $25.0 million term loan with an initial interest rate of LIBOR plus 2.5%, payable in accordance with the terms of our Senior Credit Facility. Holdings used $15.0 million to pay down outstanding revolving loans under our Senior Credit Facility, thus increasing availability under the revolving portion of our Senior Credit Facility. The remaining $10.0 million was used for general corporate purposes.
On July 20, 2011, we borrowed an additional $5.4 million under the loan portion of the TERRA-SW RUS award and received an additional $5.4 million under the grant portion of the award. After consideration of these transactions, we have $36.0 million and $35.8 million in loan and grant funds available, respectively.

Commitments And Contingencies Disclosure Text Block | (8) Commitments and Contingencies
Litigation, Disputes, and Regulatory Matters We are involved in various lawsuits, billing disputes, legal proceedings, and regulatory matters that have arisen from time to time in the normal course of business. While the ultimate results of these items cannot be predicted with certainty, we do not expect at this time for the resolution of them to have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or liquidity. In addition we are involved in the following matters:
TERRA-Southwest In January 2010 the U.S. Department of Agriculture's RUS approved our wholly-owned subsidiary, United Utilities, Inc.'s (“UUI”) application for an $88.2 million loan/grant combination to extend terrestrial broadband service for the first time to Bristol Bay and the Yukon-Kuskokwim Delta, an area in Alaska roughly the size of the state of North Dakota. Upon completion, this project, called TERRA-Southwest (“TERRA-SW”), will be able to serve over 9,000 households and over 700 businesses in the 65 covered communities. The project will also be able to serve numerous public/non-profit/private community anchor institutions and entities, such as regional health care providers, school districts, and other regional and Alaska native organizations. The RUS award, consisting of a $44.2 million loan and a $44.0 million grant, is made under the RUS Broadband Initiatives Program established pursuant to the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act. The award funds backbone network facilities that we would not otherwise be able to construct within our return-on-investment requirements. UUI started construction on TERRA-SW in 2010 and expects to complete the project in 2012 or earlier if possible. We have borrowed $2.8 million in loan funds, leaving $41.4 million remaining loan funds available as of June 30, 2011 for our TERRA-SW project. We have received $2.8 million in grant funds, leaving $41.2 million remaining grant funds available as of June 30, 2011 for our TERRA-SW project.
Universal Service On March 16, 2010, the FCC staff released the National Broadband Plan, including among its topics a proposal to transition existing USF high cost support from voice to broadband networks over a ten year period. On April 21, 2010, the FCC initiated a proceeding to consider interim and long-term USF reforms, including a five year phase-out of support to competitive ETCs. On February 8, 2011, the FCC issued a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking to consider adopting reforms to its high cost support program, including, among other things, the proposed competitive ETC phase-out and ways to fund and distribute support for broadband services. More recently, a number of industry consensus plans have been proposed to the FCC that would substantially change the methodology for distributing USF high cost support, as well as the access charge regime. We cannot predict at this time the outcome of this proceeding, the prospects for adoption of these or other reforms, the effect on high cost support available to us, or how our access charge revenues and payments would be affected; however, our revenue for providing wireline and wireless local services in these areas would be materially adversely affected by the reduction of USF support.

Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Principes | The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements include the accounts of General Communication, Inc. (“GCI”) and its direct and indirect subsidiaries and have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. They should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2010, filed with the SEC on March 15, 2011 as part of our annual report on Form 10-K. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for an entire year or any other period.
(1) Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Principles In the following discussion, GCI and its direct and indirect subsidiaries are referred to as “we,” “us” and “our.”
(a) Business GCI, an Alaska corporation, was incorporated in 1979. We offer the following services:
(b) Principles of Consolidation The consolidated financial statements include the consolidated accounts of GCI and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions between non-regulated affiliates of our company are eliminated. Intercompany transactions generated between regulated and non-regulated affiliates of the company are not eliminated in consolidation.
(c) Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements In May 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2011-04 “Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”)” which amends current guidance to achieve common fair value measurement and disclosure requirements in GAAP and IFRS. The amendments generally represent clarification of FASB ASC Topic 820, but also include instances where a particular principle or requirement for measuring fair value or disclosing information about fair value measurements has changed. This pronouncement is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2011. The adoption of ASU 2011-04 is not expected to have a material impact on our statement of operations, financial position or cash flows.
(d) Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements FASB ASU 2009-13 addresses the accounting for multiple deliverable arrangements to enable vendors to account for products or services (“deliverables”) separately rather than as a combined unit. Specifically, this guidance amends the criteria in Subtopic 605-25, “Revenue Recognition - Multiple-Element Arrangements”, for separating consideration in multiple-deliverable arrangements. This guidance establishes a selling price hierarchy for determining the selling price of a deliverable, which is based on: (a) vendor-specific objective evidence; (b) third-party evidence; or (c) estimates. This guidance also eliminates the residual method of allocation and requires that arrangement consideration be allocated at the inception of the arrangement to all deliverables using the relative selling price method. In addition, this guidance significantly expands required disclosures related to a vendor's multiple-deliverable revenue arrangements. The adoption of ASU 2009-13 on January 1, 2011, did not have a material impact on our statement of operations, financial position or cash flows.
Under ASU 2010-28 “Intangibles—Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): When to Perform Step 2 of the Goodwill Impairment Test for Reporting Units with Zero or Negative Carrying Amounts”, if the carrying amount of a reporting unit is zero or negative, an entity must assess whether it is more likely than not that goodwill impairment exists. To make that determination, an entity should consider whether there are adverse qualitative factors that could impact the amount of goodwill, including those listed in ASC 350-20-35-30. As a result of the new guidance, an entity can no longer assert that a reporting unit is not required to perform the second step of the goodwill impairment test because the carrying amount of the reporting unit is zero or negative, despite the existence of qualitative factors that indicate goodwill is more likely than not impaired. The adoption of ASU 2010-28 on January 1, 2011, did not have a material impact on our statement of operations, financial position or cash flows.
ASU 2010-29 “Business Combinations (Topic 805): Disclosure of Supplementary Pro Forma Information for Business Combinations” specifies that if a public entity presents comparative financial statements, the entity should disclose revenue and earnings of the combined entity as though the business combination(s) that occurred during the current year had occurred as of the beginning of the comparable prior annual reporting period only. The amendments in this update also expand the supplemental pro forma disclosures under Topic 805 to include a description of the nature and amount of material, nonrecurring pro forma adjustments directly attributable to the business combination included in the reported pro forma revenue and earnings. The adoption of ASU 2010-29 on January 1, 2011, did not have a material impact on our statement of operations, financial position, cash flows or related disclosures.
(e) Regulatory Accounting and Regulation We account for our regulated operations in accordance with the accounting principles for regulated enterprises. This accounting recognizes the economic effects of rate regulation by recording cost and a return on investment as such amounts are recovered through rates authorized by regulatory authorities. Accordingly, plant and equipment is depreciated over lives approved by regulators and certain costs and obligations are deferred based upon approvals received from regulators to permit recovery of such amounts in future years. Our cost studies and depreciation rates for our regulated operations are subject to periodic audits that could result in a change to recorded revenues.
(f) Earnings per Common Share We compute net income (loss) per share of Class A and Class B common stock using the “two class” method. Therefore, basic net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) applicable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common and dilutive common equivalent shares outstanding during the period. The computation of the dilutive net income (loss) per share of Class A common stock assumes the conversion of Class B common stock to Class A common stock, while the dilutive net income (loss) per share of Class B common stock does not assume the conversion of those shares. Additionally in applying the “two-class” method, undistributed earnings (losses) are allocated to both common shares and participating securities. Our restricted stock grants are entitled to dividends and meet the criteria of a participating security.
Undistributed earnings (losses) for each year are allocated based on the contractual participation rights of Class A and Class B common shares as if the earnings (losses) for the year had been distributed. In accordance with our Articles of Incorporation which provide that, if and when dividends are declared on our common stock in accordance with Alaska corporate law, equivalent dividends shall be paid with respect to the shares of Class A and Class B common stock. Both classes of common stock have identical dividend rights and would therefore share equally in our net assets in the event of liquidation. As such, we have allocated undistributed earnings (losses) on a proportionate basis.
Earnings (loss) per common share (“EPS”) and common shares used to calculate basic and diluted EPS consist of the following (amounts in thousands, except per share amounts):
Weighted average shares associated with outstanding share awards for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, which have been excluded from the computations of diluted EPS, because the effect of including these share awards would have been anti-dilutive, consist of the following (shares, in thousands):
Additionally, 50,000 weighted average shares associated with contingent awards were excluded from the computation of diluted EPS for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 because the contingencies of these awards have not been met at June 30, 2011.
(g) Common Stock Following are the changes in issued common stock for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 (shares, in thousands):
GCI's Board of Directors has authorized a common stock buyback program for the repurchase of GCI's Class A and Class B common stock in order to reduce the outstanding shares of Class A and Class B common stock. We are authorized to increase our repurchase limit $5.0 million per quarter indefinitely and to use stock option exercise proceeds to repurchase additional shares. If stock repurchases are less than the total approved quarterly amount the difference may be carried forward and used to repurchase additional shares in future quarters.
Under the stock buyback program, we repurchased 1.2 million and 171,000 shares of our Class A and B common stock at a cost of $14.1 million and $1.0 million, during the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 we repurchased 1.9 million and 224,000 shares of our Class A and B common stock at a cost of $21.1 million and $1.3 million, respectively. The cost of the repurchased common stock reduced Common Stock on our Consolidated Balance Sheets. The 2011 repurchases reduced the amount available under the stock buyback program to $114.4 million at June 30, 2011. The repurchased stock was constructively retired as of June 30, 2011.
We expect to continue the repurchases for an indefinite period dependent on leverage, liquidity, company performance, market conditions and subject to continued oversight by GCI's Board of Directors. The open market repurchases have complied and will continue to comply with the restrictions of Rule 10b-18 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. (h) Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant items subject to estimates and assumptions include the allowance for doubtful receivables, unbilled revenues, accrual of the Universal Service Fund (“USF”) high cost area program support, share-based compensation, inventory reserves, reserve for future customer credits, valuation allowances for deferred income tax assets, depreciable and amortizable lives of assets, the carrying value of long-lived assets including goodwill, cable certificates and wireless licenses, purchase price allocations, deferred lease expense, asset retirement obligations, the accrual of Cost of Goods Sold (exclusive of depreciation and amortization) and the accrual of contingencies and litigation. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
The accounting estimates related to revenues from the high cost USF program are dependent on various inputs including current line counts, the most current rates paid to us, and our assessment of the impact of new Federal Communications Commission (“FCC”) regulations, and the potential outcome of FCC proceedings. Some of the inputs are subjective and based on our judgment regarding the outcome of certain variables and are subject to upward or downward adjustment in subsequent periods.
Effective in the second quarter of 2010, we changed our USF high-cost area program support accrual methodology due to a change in our estimate of the current amounts expected to be paid to us. The effect of this change in estimate was a revenue increase of $4.7 million, a net income increase of $3.1 million, and a basic and diluted net income per share increase of $0.06 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010.
(i) Classification of Taxes Collected from Customers We report sales, use, excise, and value added taxes assessed by a governmental authority that are directly imposed on a revenue-producing transaction between us and a customer on a net basis in our income statement. Following are certain surcharges reported on a gross basis in our Consolidated Statement of Operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 (amounts in thousands):

Long Term Debt Text Block | (4) Long-Term Debt
2021 Notes On May 20, 2011 (“Closing Date”), GCI, Inc. our wholly-owned subsidiary, completed an offering of $325.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 6 3/4% Senior Notes due 2021 (“2021 Notes”) at an issue price of 100% to qualified institutional buyers in reliance on Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (“Securities Act”), and to persons outside the United States in accordance with Regulation S under the Securities Act. We used the net proceeds from this offering to repay and retire all $320.0 million of our outstanding senior unsecured notes due 2014 (“2014 Notes”).
The 2021 Notes mature on June 1, 2021. Semi-annual interest payments are payable on June 1 and December 1, beginning on December 1, 2011. The 2021 Notes are carried on our Consolidated Balance Sheet.
The 2021 Notes are senior unsecured obligations which rank equally in right of payment with our existing and future senior unsecured debt, including our 8 5/8% Senior Notes due 2019, and senior in right of payment to all future subordinated indebtedness.
The 2021 Notes were issued pursuant to an Indenture, dated as of the Closing Date, between us and Union Bank, N.A., as trustee.
We are not required to make mandatory sinking fund payments with respect to the 2021 Notes.
Upon the occurrence of a change of control, each holder of the 2021 Notes will have the right to require us to purchase all or any part (equal to $1,000 or an integral multiple thereof, except that no 2021 Note will be purchased in part if the remaining portion thereof would not be at least $2,000) of such holder's 2021 Notes at a purchase price equal to 101% of the principal amount of such 2021 Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest on such 2021 Notes, if any. If we or certain of our subsidiaries engage in asset sales, we must generally either invest the net cash proceeds from such sales in our business within a period of time, prepay debt under any outstanding credit facility, or make an offer to purchase a principal amount of the 2021 Notes equal to the excess net cash proceeds, with the purchase price equal to 100% of their principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any.
The covenants in the Indenture restrict GCI, Inc. and certain of its subsidiaries from incurring additional debt, but permits debt under the Senior Credit Facility and vendor financing as long as our leverage ratio, as defined, does not exceed 5.5 to one; or enter into sale and leaseback transactions; pay dividends or distributions on capital stock or repurchase capital stock; issue stock of subsidiaries; make certain investments; create liens on assets to secure debt; enter into transactions with affiliates; merge or consolidate with another company; and transfer and sell assets. These covenants are subject to a number of limitations and exceptions, as further described in the Indenture.
On July 7, 2011, GCI, Inc. launched an exchange offer pursuant to which it offered new 2021 Notes identical to the original notes except that the new 2021 Notes will have been registered under the Securities Act. The exchange offer is expected to close on or about August 13, 2011.
We paid closing costs totaling $3.5 million in connection with the offering, which were recorded as deferred loan costs and are being amortized over the term of the 2021 Notes. We recorded a $9.1 million Loss on Extinguishment of Debt on our Consolidated Statement of Operations. Included in the loss was $2.9 million in unamortized deferred loan costs, $1.5 million for the unamortized portion of the original issue discount and $4.7 million in call premium payments to redeem our 2014 Notes.
Senior Credit Facility In June 2011, GCI Holdings, Inc. (“Holdings”), our wholly owned subsidiary, entered into an Add-On Term Loan Supplement No. 1 (“Supplement No. 1”) to our Senior Credit Facility. The Supplement No. 1 provided for an additional $25.0 million term loan with an initial interest rate of LIBOR plus 2.5%, payable in accordance with the terms of our Senior Credit Facility. Holdings used $20.0 million of the loan proceeds to pay down outstanding revolving loans under our Senior Credit Facility, thus increasing availability under the revolving portion of our Senior Credit Facility. The remaining $5.0 million was used for general corporate purposes.
Our Senior Credit Facility, which includes the Supplement No. 1 as discussed above, includes a $25.0 million term loan and a $75.0 million revolving credit facility with a $25.0 million sublimit for letters of credit. A total of $63.0 million is outstanding as of June 30, 2011. The term loan is fully drawn as of June 30, 2011. Under the revolving portion of the Senior Credit Facility, we have borrowed $38.0 million and have $2.7 million of letters of credit outstanding, which leaves $34.3 million available for borrowing as of June 30, 2011. The Senior Credit Facility will mature on January 29, 2015.

Fair Value Disclosures Text Block | (5) Financial Instruments
Fair Value of Financial Instruments The fair value of a financial instrument is the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties. At June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the fair values of cash and cash equivalents, net receivables, accounts payable, accrued payroll and payroll related obligations, accrued interest, accrued liabilities, and subscriber deposits approximate their carrying value due to the short-term nature of these financial instruments. The carrying amounts and estimated fair values of our financial instruments at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010 follow (amounts in thousands):
The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate fair values:
Current and long-term debt and capital lease obligations: The fair values of our 2021 Notes, 2019 Notes, 2014 Notes, Rural Utilities Service (“RUS”) debt, CoBank mortgage note payable, and capital leases are based upon quoted market prices for the same or similar issues or on the current rates offered to us for the same remaining maturities. The fair value of our Senior Credit Facility is estimated to approximate the carrying value because this instrument is subject to variable interest rates.
Other Liabilities: Lease escalation liabilities are valued at the discounted amount of future cash flows using quoted market prices on current rates offered to us. Deferred compensation liabilities are carried at fair value, which is the amount payable as of the balance sheet date. Asset retirement obligations are recorded at their fair value and, over time, the liability is accreted to its present value each period. Our non-employee share-based compensation awards are reported at their fair value at each reporting period.
Fair Value Measurements Assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010 were as follows (amounts in thousands):
The valuation of our mutual funds is determined using quoted market prices in active markets utilizing market observable inputs.

Disclosure Of Compensation Related Costs Share Based Payments Text Block | (6) Share-Based Compensation Our Amended and Restated 1986 Stock Option Plan ("Stock Option Plan"), provides for the grant of options and restricted stock awards (collectively "award") for a maximum of 15.7 million shares of GCI Class A common stock, subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of stock dividends, stock splits, mergers, consolidations or certain other changes in corporate structure or capitalization. If an award expires or terminates, the shares subject to the award will be available for further grants of awards under the Stock Option Plan. The Compensation Committee of GCI's Board of Directors administers the Stock Option Plan. Substantially all restricted stock awards granted vest over periods of up to three years. Substantially all options vest in equal installments over a period of five years and expire ten years from the date of grant. The requisite service period of our awards is generally the same as the vesting period. Options granted pursuant to the Stock Option Plan are only exercisable if at the time of exercise the option holder is our employee, non-employee director, or a consultant or advisor working on our behalf. New shares of GCI Class A common stock are issued when stock option agreements are exercised or restricted stock awards are granted.
The fair value of restricted stock awards is determined based on the number of shares granted and the quoted price of our common stock. We use a Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model to estimate the fair value of stock options issued. The Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model incorporates various and highly subjective assumptions, including expected term and expected volatility. We have reviewed our historical pattern of option exercises and have determined that meaningful differences in option exercise activity existed among employee job categories. Therefore, we have categorized these awards into two groups of employees for valuation purposes.
The weighted average grant date fair value of options granted during the six months ended June 30, 2010 was $2.84 per share. There were no options granted during the six months ended June 30, 2011. The total fair value of options vesting during the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 was $97,000 and $82,000, respectively.
The following is a summary of our share-based compensation expense for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 (in thousands):
Share-based compensation expense is classified as selling, general and administrative expense in our Consolidated Statement of Operations. Unrecognized share-based compensation expense was $6.4 million relating to 2.5 million restricted stock awards and $490,000 relating to 308,000 unvested stock options as of June 30, 2011. We expect to recognize share-based compensation expense over a weighted average period of 1.3 years for stock options and restricted stock awards.
A summary of option activity under the Stock Option Plan for the six months ended June 30, 2011 follows (share amounts in thousands):
A summary of nonvested restricted stock award activity under the Stock Option Plan for the six months ended June 30, 2011, follows (share amounts in thousands):
At June 30, 2011, 3.8 million shares were available for grant under the Stock Option Plan.
The total intrinsic values, determined as of the date of exercise, of options exercised during the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 were $155,000 and $48,000, respectively. We received $285,000 and $111,000 in cash from stock option exercises during the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.
The following is a summary of activity for stock option grants that were not made pursuant to the Stock Option Plan for the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2011 (share amounts in thousands):
In January 2001 we entered into an aircraft operating lease agreement with a company owned by our President and Chief Executive Officer. The lease was amended several times, most recently on May 9, 2011. Upon signing the lease in January 2001, the lessor was granted an option to purchase 250,000 shares of GCI Class A common stock at $6.50 per share, of which 100,000 shares were exercised during the year ended December 31, 2006 and the remaining 150,000 shares expired on March 31, 2010.
