Exhibit 10.2

EXECUTION VERSION

FIRST AMENDMENT dated as of August 3, 2015 (this “Amendment”) to the Credit Agreement (as defined below) among GCI Holdings, Inc. (the “Borrower”), the Additional Refinancing Lenders party hereto (the “New Term B Lenders”) and Credit Agricole Corporate and Investment Bank, as Administrative Agent (the “Administrative Agent”).

RECITALS

A.     The Borrower, Parent, the Subsidiary Guarantors, the Lenders party thereto from time to time and the Administrative Agent, are party to that certain Fourth Amended and Restated Credit and Guarantee Agreement dated as of February 2, 2015 (as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”).

B.     The Credit Agreement permits the Borrower to obtain Credit Agreement Refinancing Debt from any Additional Refinancing Lender in respect of all or any portion of the Term B Loans outstanding under the Credit Agreement in the form of Refinancing Term Loans and Refinancing Term Commitments pursuant to a Refinancing Amendment.

C.    On the First Amendment Effective Date (as defined below), the Borrower intends to (i) incur Refinancing Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.14 of the Credit Agreement in an aggregate principal amount of $274,312,500 (the “New Term B Loans”) and (ii) use the proceeds of the New Term B Loans (and, at the election of the Borrower, cash on hand) to repay all Term B Loans outstanding immediately prior to the First Amendment Effective Date (the “Original Term B Loans”) and accrued interest thereon and to pay fees and expenses incurred in connection with the foregoing.

D.    Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, each New Term B Lender (each such Person who is holding Original Term B Loans immediately prior to the effectiveness of this Amendment, a “Continuing Term B Lender”; each such Person who is not a Continuing Term B Lender, an “Additional Term B Lender”) has agreed to provide a commitment (the “New Term B Commitment”) in the amount set forth on Exhibit A hereto either, in the case of Continuing Term B Lenders, to convert all (or such lesser amount equal to its New Term B Commitment) of its Original Term B Loans into New Term B Loans (such converted Term B Loans, the “Converted Term B Loans”; and any such conversion of Original Term B Loans into New Term B Loans being referred to herein as a “Term B Conversion”) or, in the case of Additional Term B Lenders, to fund a New Term B Loan in the amount of its New Term B Commitment. Any Lender holding Original Term B Loans immediately prior to the effectiveness of this Amendment that is not a New Term B Lender is referred to herein as an “Exiting Term B Lender”. In the event that any Lender is a Continuing Term B Lender but has a New Term B Commitment in an amount less than the amount of its Original Term B Loans, such Lender shall be considered an Exiting Term B Lender with respect to the difference between the amount of its Original Term B Loans and the allocated amount of its New Term B Loans.

E.     In order to effect the foregoing, the Borrower and the other parties hereto desire to amend the Credit Agreement, subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein. This

Amendment is a Refinancing Amendment contemplated by Section 2.14 of the Credit Agreement to provide for the New Term B Loans, which is subject to the approval of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the New Term B Lenders, which will become effective only on the First Amendment Effective Date.

AGREEMENTS

In consideration of the foregoing and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Borrower, the New Term B Lenders and the Administrative Agent hereby agree as follows:

ARTICLE I.
Refinancing Amendment

SECTION 1.01.    Defined Terms. Capitalized terms used herein (including in the recitals hereto) and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Credit Agreement. The rules of construction specified in Section 1.3 of the Credit Agreement also apply to this Amendment.

SECTION 1.02.    New Term B Commitments.

(a)    Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, on the First Amendment Effective Date, each Additional Term B Lender agrees to fund a New Term B Loan in a principal amount equal to such Additional Term B Lender’s New Term B Commitment set forth on Exhibit A hereto.

(b)    Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, on the First Amendment Effective Date, each Continuing Term B Lender agrees to convert all (or such lesser amount equal to its New Term B Commitment) of its Original Term B Loans into Converted Term B Loans. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Continuing Term B Lender shall have a commitment to acquire by Term B Conversion Converted Term B Loans in the amount of Original Term B Loans then held by such Continuing Term B Lender (or such lesser amount equal to its New Term B Commitment). Each party hereto acknowledges and agrees that notwithstanding any such Term B Conversion, each such Continuing Term B Lender shall be entitled to receive payment on the First Amendment Effective Date of the unpaid fees and interest accrued to such date with respect to all of its Original Term B Loans.

(c)    Each New Term B Lender, by delivering its signature page to this Amendment and funding, or converting its Original Term B Loans into, New Term B Loans on the First Amendment Effective Date shall be deemed to have acknowledged receipt of, and consented to and approved, each Loan Document and each other document required to be delivered to, or be approved by or satisfactory to, the Administrative Agent or any Class of Lenders on the First Amendment Effective Date. The commitments of the New Term B Lenders are several, and no New Term B Lender shall be responsible for any other New Term B Lender’s failure to make New Term B Loans.

-2-

(d)    Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, pursuant to Section 2.14 of the Credit Agreement, effective as of the First Amendment Effective Date, for all purposes of the Loan Documents, except as the context shall otherwise require, (i) the New Term B Commitments shall constitute “Term B Loan Commitments” and “Commitments”, (ii) the New Term B Loans shall constitute “Term B Loans,” “Loans” and “Term Loans” and (iii) each New Term B Lender constitute a “Term B Lender” and a “Lender” and shall have all the rights and obligations of a Lender holding a Term B Loan Commitment (or, following the making of a New Term B Loan, a Term B Loan). For the avoidance of doubt, the New Term B Loans constitute a Class of Refinancing Term Loans under the Credit Agreement in existence prior to the First Amendment Effective Date, but the Credit Agreement is being amended hereby to use the term “Term B Loans” to refer to such Loans instead of the term “Refinancing Term Loans”.

(e)    The Original Term B Loans (or applicable portion thereof in the case of an Exiting Term B Lender that is also a Continuing Term B Lender) of each Exiting Term B Lender shall, immediately upon the effectiveness of this Amendment, be repaid in full (together with any unpaid fees and interest accrued thereon (including funding losses payable to any Exiting Term B Lenders pursuant to Section 3.6 of the Credit Agreement)) with the proceeds of the New Term B Loans and other funds available to the Borrower. The Borrower shall, on the First Amendment Effective Date, pay to the Administrative Agent, for the accounts of the Persons that are Term B Lenders immediately prior to the First Amendment Effective Date, all interest, fees and other amounts accrued to the First Amendment Effective Date with respect to the Original Term B Loans, whether or not such Original Term B Loans are converted pursuant to Section 1.02(b) of this Amendment.

(f)    Each New Term B Lender (including each Continuing Term B Lender) waives (i) any right to compensation for losses, expenses or liabilities incurred by such Lender to which it may otherwise have been entitled pursuant to Section 3.6 of the Credit Agreement in respect of the transactions contemplated hereby and (ii) solely in respect of the prepayment of Original Term B Loans and the making of (or conversion into) New Term B Loans, as contemplated hereby, compliance with the requirements set forth in (A) Section 2.7(g) of the Credit Agreement that the Borrower give prior notice of a voluntary prepayment of Loans and (B) Section 2.3 of the Credit Agreement that the Borrower deliver a Borrowing Request within the time periods specified therein.

(g)    Each New Term B Lender (a) represents and warrants to the Administrative Agent that (i)(A) it has full power and authority, and has taken all action necessary, to execute and deliver this Amendment and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby and to become a Lender under the Credit Agreement in respect of its New Term B Loans, and (B) neither its execution and delivery of this Amendment nor the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby conflict with such New Term B Lender’s organizational documents or material contracts or with any applicable law, (ii) from and after the First Amendment Effective Date, it shall be bound by the provisions of the Credit Agreement as a Lender thereunder and, to the extent of its New Term B Loans, shall have the obligations of a Lender thereunder, (iii) it has received a copy of the Credit Agreement, together with such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Amendment and make the resulting Term B Loan Commitment, (iv) it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent

-3-

or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Amendment and make the resulting Term B Loan Commitment and (v) if it is a Non-US Lender, it has provided any documentation required to be delivered by it pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement, duly completed and executed by such New Term B Lender; and (b) agrees that (i) it will, independently and without reliance on the Administrative Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under the Loan Documents, (ii) it will perform in accordance with their terms all of the obligations which by the terms of the Loan Documents are required to be performed by it as a Lender thereunder, and (iii) it hereby irrevocably appoints, designates and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of the Credit Agreement and each other Loan Document and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to it by the terms of the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.

(h)    The New Term B Commitments shall terminate after the making of the New Term B Loans on the First Amendment Effective Date.

SECTION 1.03.    Conditions Precedent to Making of New Term B Loans. The obligation of each New Term B Lender to make New Term B Loans (including through conversion of Original Term B Loans) on the First Amendment Effective Date is subject to the satisfaction of the following conditions:
