 Exhibit 10.7 
 EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT 
 THIS EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT (this
“Agreement”), is made and entered into as of the 19th day of October, 2010 (the “Effective Date”), by and between Campus Crest Communities, Inc. (the “Company”), and Michael S. Hartnett, an individual
(“Employee”) (the Company and Employee are hereinafter sometimes collectively referred to as the “Parties”). 
 RECITALS 
 A. The Company desires to employ Employee as Chief Investment
Officer of the Company on the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth. 
 B. Employee desires to accept such employment on
the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth. 
 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the mutual covenants
and agreements of the Parties hereinafter set forth, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the Parties hereto, intending to be legally bound, hereby agree as follows: 

1. Employment. The Company hereby employs Employee as Chief Investment Officer of the Company, and Employee hereby accepts such
employment, upon the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth. Employee shall manage and oversee the investment activities of the Company and shall have such other duties and authority as are customary for such position and as shall from time to
time be assigned to Employee by the Board of Directors (“Board”) of the Company in their discretion. Employee shall faithfully and to the best of his ability fulfill such duties and shall devote his full business time, attention, skill and
efforts with undivided loyalty to the performance of such duties. Employee shall abide by all of the rules, regulations and policies established or promulgated (whether communicated in writing, electronically or orally) by the Company from time to
time. Employee agrees that so long as he is an employee of the Company he shall not, without obtaining the express prior approval in writing of the Board of the Company, engage in any employment, consulting activity or business other than for the
Company. 
 2. Compensation and Benefits. During his employment under this Agreement, Employee shall receive the
compensation and benefits more particularly described on Exhibit A attached hereto and made a part hereof. In the event the Company terminates the Incentive Compensation Plan provided for in Exhibit A hereto, the Company shall
establish a new plan or such other arrangement as shall be mutually agreeable to the Company and Employee which shall provide Employee with substantially similar economic benefits to those provided under the Incentive Compensation Plan. Furthermore,
no amendment or modification to the Incentive Compensation Plan shall reduce the benefits to be provided thereunder without the consent of Employee. Any payments referenced hereunder shall be subject to applicable taxes and other withholdings.








 3. Termination. This Agreement shall be for an initial term of three years, expiring
on the third anniversary of the date hereof; provided, however, it shall automatically renew for additional one year terms on each anniversary date hereof unless notice of termination is given in writing at least 90 days prior to expiration of the
initial term or the renewal term, as the case may be. The Company may terminate this Agreement at any time for Cause or without Cause (as defined below). Employee may terminate this Agreement at any time with or without Good Reason (as defined
below) upon delivery to the Company of thirty (30) days written notice. Termination of this Agreement shall terminate completely Employee’s employment with the Company, including, but not limited to, his role as an officer. If Employee is
serving as a member of the Company’s Board, Employee agrees to resign from the Board effective immediately upon termination of this Agreement. 
 (A) Termination Date. The date which the Board of the Company designates as the termination date or, if Employee terminates this Agreement, the date designated by Employee as stated in the written
notice delivered to the Company, shall be referred to herein as the “Termination Date.” 
 (B) Payment Upon
Termination. 
 (i) Termination By Employee. In the event Employee terminates this Agreement, the Company shall be
obligated to pay Employee that pro-rata portion of his current semi-monthly Base Salary payment, as adjusted for any increase thereto, which is earned but unpaid as of the Termination Date, any earned but unpaid incentive compensation, any accrued
but unpaid paid time off (“PTO”) due to him through the Termination Date and any unreimbursed expenses. Employee will not be entitled to, nor will he receive, any type of severance payment, unless he has Good Reason, as defined
below, to terminate this Agreement. If Employee has Good Reason then he shall receive the severance outlined in subsection (B)(ii)(b) below addressing Termination by the Company without Cause, subject to its requirements for receipt of such payment.
If Employee terminates Employee’s employment pursuant to this subsection (B)(i), then the Company, at its option, may require Employee to cease providing services during the thirty (30) day notice period required therein; provided,
however, for purposes of calculating payment upon termination under this Agreement, Employee shall be treated as if he was employed during such thirty (30) day period. “Good Reason” shall mean (1) a material involuntary
reduction in Employee’s duties, authority, reporting responsibility or function by the Company, (2) a material reduction in Employee’s compensation package other than as mutually agreed, (3) Employee’s involuntary relocation
to a principal place of work more than thirty (30) miles from Charlotte, North Carolina or (4) a material breach by the Company of its obligations hereunder, provided that, upon the occurrence of any of these acts or omissions, Employee
gives the Company notice of his belief that he has Good Reason to terminate this Agreement and the Company fails to cure within thirty (30) business days of receipt of Employee’s notice. 

(ii) Termination By Company. 
 (a) Cause. The Company may terminate this Agreement for Cause effective immediately upon written notice to Employee stating the facts constituting such Cause. If Employee is terminated for Cause,
the Company shall be obligated to pay Employee that pro-rata portion of his current semi-monthly Base Salary payment, as adjusted for any increase thereto, which is earned but unpaid as of the Termination Date, any earned but unpaid incentive
compensation, any accrued but unpaid PTO due to him through the Termination Date and any unreimbursed expenses. Employee will not be entitled to, nor will he receive, any type of 

  
 2 








 
severance payment. The term “Cause” shall mean: (1) Employee’s act of gross negligence or misconduct that has the effect of injuring the business of the Company or its
parent, subsidiaries or affiliates, taken as a whole, in any material respect, (2) Employee’s conviction or plea of guilty or nolo contendere to the commission of a felony by Employee, (3) the commission by Employee of an act
of fraud or embezzlement against the Company, its parent, subsidiary or affiliates, or (4) Employee’s willful breach of any material provision of this Agreement or that certain Confidentiality and Noncompetition Agreement between Employee
and the Company which shall be entered into contemporaneously with this Agreement (the “Confidentiality and Noncompetition Agreement”). 
 (b) Without Cause. The Company may terminate this Agreement without Cause effective immediately upon notice to Employee. In the event the Company terminates this Agreement without Cause, the
Company shall pay to Employee in addition to the amounts under the first sentence of Subsection B(i) above, a cash payment equal to two times the sum of: (i) Employee’s then current annual Base Salary, as adjusted for any increase thereto
and (ii) an amount equal to the bonus paid to Employee for the prior year (provided that, if no incentive bonus was paid in the prior year the amount shall be 50% of the “target amount” as defined in the Company’s Incentive
Compensation Plan for the year in which notice is given). Any amounts payable under this subparagraph shall be paid in equal monthly installments over a period of 24 months commencing no later than thirty (30) days following Employee’s
Termination Date, shall be subject to applicable withholdings. The severance and bonus payments outlined in this Section are contingent on Employee fully complying with the terms of the Confidentiality and Noncompetition Agreement signed
contemporaneously herewith. If Employee fails to so comply, Employee agrees that the Company has the right to cease making the payments described in this Section and that the Company is entitled to recover from Employee any payments it has already
made to Employee. 
 (iii) Change in Control. In the event, within 24 months following a Change in Control of the
Company: (A) Employee is terminated without Cause by the Company, or (B) Employee terminates his employment for Good Reason, in lieu of the severance payment outlined in (b) above, Employee will receive, in addition to the amounts
under the first sentence of Subsection B(i) above, a cash payment equal to three times the sum of: (i) Employee’s then current Base Salary, as adjusted for any increase thereto and (ii) an amount equal to Employee’s previous
year’s Incentive Compensation Plan payment. In the event Employee did not receive an Incentive Compensation Plan payment the previous year, the incentive amount shall be 50% of the “target amount” as defined in the Company’s
Incentive Compensation Plan for the year in which termination occurs. Such amount shall be paid in a lump sum within 60 days of the Termination Date subject to subsection 3(C) hereof. “Change in Control” means “a change in the
ownership of the corporation,” “a change in effective control of the corporation,” or “a change in the ownership of a substantial portion of the assets of the corporation” within the meaning of Section 1.409A-3(i)(5) of
the Treasury Regulations. The payments to Employee outlined in this Section are contingent on Employee fully complying with the terms of the Confidentiality and Noncompetition Agreement signed contemporaneously herewith. If Employee fails to so
comply, Employee agrees that the Company has the right to cease making the payments described in this Section and that the Company is entitled to recover from Employee any payments it has already made to Employee. 

  
 3 








 In the event it shall be determined that any payment or distribution to or for the benefit
of Employee under this subsection (iii) or the acceleration thereof (the “Triggering Payment”) would be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the
“Code”), or any interest or penalties with respect to such excise tax (collectively, such excise tax, together with any such interest or penalties, the “Excise Tax”) (all such payments and benefits, including any
cash severance payments payable pursuant to any other plan, arrangement or agreement, hereinafter referred to as the “Total Payments”), then, after taking into account any reduction in the Total Payments provided by reason of
Section 280G of the Code in such other plan, arrangement or agreement, the cash severance payments shall be reduced to the extent necessary so that no portion of the Total Payments is subject to the Excise Tax but only if (A) the net
amount of such Total Payments, as so reduced (and after subtracting the net amount of federal, state and local income taxes on such reduced Total Payments and after taking into account the phase out of itemized deductions and personal exemptions
attributable to such reduced Total Payments) is greater than or equal to (B) the net amount of such Total Payments without such reduction (but after subtracting the net amount of federal, state and local income taxes on such Total Payments and
the amount of Excise Tax to which Employee would be subject in respect of such unreduced Total Payments and after taking into account the phase out of itemized deductions and personal exemptions attributable to such unreduced Total Payments). All
determinations required to be made under this subsection (iii) shall be made in writing within ten (10) business days of the receipt of notice from Employee that there has been a Triggering Payment by the independent accounting firm then
retained by the Company in the ordinary course of business (which firm shall provide detailed supporting calculations to the Company and Employee) and such determinations shall be final and binding on the Company and Employee. Any fees incurred as a
result of work performed by any independent accounting firm hereunder shall be paid by the Company. 
 (iv) Vesting. In
the event of: (i) a termination by the Company without Cause, (ii) a termination by Employee for Good Reason, (iii) a Change in Control, or (iv) the voluntary retirement of the Employee subsequent to reaching the age of 63,
occurring prior to Employee fully vesting in any options or restricted equity, then the vesting schedule shall be accelerated so that Employee will be deemed fully vested with respect to such options or restricted equity. 

(v) Disability. The Company may terminate Employee’s employment upon Employee’s total disability. Employee shall be
deemed to be totally disabled for purposes of this Agreement if he is unable to perform his essential job duties under this Agreement by reason of a mental or physical illness or condition lasting for a period of 120 consecutive days or more, taking
into consideration any reasonable accommodations under the Americans with Disabilities Act, if applicable. The determination as to whether Employee is totally disabled shall be made by a licensed physician selected by the Company. Whether Employee
is entitled to receive his Base Salary during the period he is unable to work prior to termination hereunder is contingent on other Company policies and the amount of leave Employee has available to him under those policies. Upon termination by
reason of Employee’s disability, the Company’s sole and exclusive obligation will be to pay Employee that pro-rata portion of his current semi-monthly Base Salary payment, as adjusted for any increase thereto, which is earned but unpaid as
of the Termination Date, any earned but unpaid bonus and any accrued but unpaid PTO due to him through the Termination Date. 

  
 4 








 (vi) Death. This Agreement shall terminate immediately and without any action on the
part of the Company if Employee dies. In such an event, Employee’s estate shall receive from the Company, in a single lump sum, an amount equal to (i) that pro-rata portion of his current semi-monthly Base Salary payment, as adjusted for
any increase thereto, which is earned but unpaid as of the date of Employee’s death unless earlier terminated due to disability as set forth in subsection 3(B)(v) above and (ii) any bonus compensation earned by Employee but unpaid prior to
Employee’s death, plus other death benefits, if any, generally applicable to the Company’s employees. 
 (C) The
following rules shall apply with respect to the distribution of payments and benefits, if any, to be provided to Employee under Section 3(B) of this Agreement, as applicable: 

(i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no payments shall be made to Employee upon Employee’s termination of
employment from the Company under this Agreement unless such termination of employment is a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code. For purposes of determining the timing of payments under this
Section 3 only, “Termination Date” shall be deemed to mean the date on which Employee experiences a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code. 

(ii) It is intended that each installment of the payments and benefits provided under this Section 3(B)(ii)(b), if any, shall be
treated as a separate “payment” for purposes of Section 409A of the Code. 
 (iii) Notwithstanding anything
herein to the contrary, in the event that Employee is deemed to be a “specified employee” for purposes of Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code, any payments to Employee hereunder that are subject to the provisions of Section 409A
of the Code shall not be made prior to the six-month anniversary of Employee’s Termination Date. Thereafter, any payment that would otherwise have been made during the six-month period beginning on Employee’s Termination Date will be paid,
together with interest at an annual rate (compounded monthly) equal to the federal short-term rate (as in effect under Section 1274(d) of the Code on the termination date), to Employee immediately following such six-month anniversary and no
later than thirty (30) days following such anniversary. 
 4. Release. Employee agrees that payment by the Company
of the amounts set out above (in the event of a termination by the Company Without Cause, termination by Employee for Good Reason or due to a Change in Control) is contingent upon Employee executing a mutual release, acceptable to the Company and
Employee which shall recite that such payment is in full and final settlement of any and all actions, causes of actions, suits, claims, demands and entitlements whatsoever which Employee has or may have against the Company or which the Company may
have against Employee, their respective affiliates and any of their respective directors, officers, employees, shareholders, representatives, successors and assigns arising out of Employee’s hiring, his employment and the termination of his
employment or this Agreement. 
 5. Expenses. The Company shall reimburse Employee for all necessary and reasonable
out-of-pocket travel and other business expenses incurred by Employee, which relate to Employee’s duties hereunder, in accordance with the Company’s relevant policies in effect from time to time. 

  
 5 








 6. Survival Of Certain Provisions. Any provisions hereof that, by their nature, would
survive the termination hereof shall not be discharged or dissolved upon, but shall survive the termination of the employment of Employee with the Company. 
 7. Representations And Warranties Of Employee. As of the date hereof and at all times during the term hereof, Employee represents and warrants to the Company that (a) Employee has not entered
into and is not bound by any agreement, understanding or restriction (including, without limitation, any covenant restricting competition or solicitation or agreement relating to trade secrets or confidential information) with any third party that
in any way limits, restricts or would prevent the employment of him by the Company under this Agreement or the full and complete performance by him of all his duties and obligations hereunder; and (b) the execution of this Agreement by him and
the employment of him by the Company under this Agreement will not result in, or constitute a breach of, any term or condition of any other agreement, instrument, arrangement or understanding between him and any third party, or constitute (or, with
notice or lapse of time, or both, would constitute) a default, breach or violation of any such agreement, instrument, arrangement or understanding, or which would accelerate the maturity of any duty or obligation of him thereunder. 

8. Indemnity. Employee acknowledges that the Company has relied upon the representations contained in Section 7
hereof. Employee agrees to indemnify and hold the Company, its directors, officers, employees, agents, representatives, affiliates, parent, subsidiary and related companies, representatives and consultants and their insurers and attorneys harmless
against any and all claims, liabilities, losses, damages, costs, fees or expenses including, without limitation, reasonable legal fees and costs incurred by the Company, its directors, officers, employees, agents, representatives, affiliates,
parent, subsidiary and related companies, representatives and consultants and their insurers by reason of an alleged violation by Employee of any of the representations contained in Section 7 hereof. 

9. Notices. All notices and other communications under this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed given upon receipt

 (C) Waiver of Jury Trial. If any Dispute is not arbitrated for any reason, the Parties desire to avoid the time and
expense relating to a jury trial of such Dispute. Accordingly, the Parties, for themselves and their successors and assigns, hereby waive trial by jury of any Dispute. The Parties acknowledge that this waiver is knowingly, freely, and voluntarily

 Exhibit A – Employment Agreement with Michael S. Hartnett 

Compensation and Benefits 
 (A) Employee’s employment with the Company shall become effective on October 19, 2010. On the date Employee’s employment commences, unless voted otherwise by the Company’s Board of
Directors, Employee will be granted a seat on the Company’s Board of Directors. 
 (B) Employee shall receive a base salary
of $300,000 per year, which will increase to $360,000 per year effective on January 1, 2012 (as such base salary may hereafter from time to time be adjusted as provided herein, the “Base Salary”). Thereafter, Employee’s
Base Salary shall be reviewed annually by the Company’s Compensation Committee and the Board of the Company and may be adjusted upward in its sole discretion. The Base Salary shall be paid during the period of employment, by direct deposit
according to the Company’s current standard pay practice of 26 pay periods per year (semi-monthly) or in accordance with the Company’s relevant policies and practices in effect from time to time, including normal payroll practices, and
shall be subject to all applicable employment and withholding taxes. 
 (C) In addition to the Base Salary, Employee is eligible
to participate in the Company’s Incentive Compensation Plan (the “Plan”) with a target potential bonus equal to fifty percent (50%) of his Base Salary, with the potential to achieve one hundred percent (100%) of Base
Salary if stretch performance targets are achieved. This plan shall be approved annually by the Compensation Committee and approved by the Board of the Company. Employee’s eligibility for or entitlement to any payments under the Plan shall be
subject to the terms of the Plan. 
 (D) In accordance with its terms, Employee is eligible to participate in the Company’s
Equity Incentive Compensation Plan (the “EICP”). The Employee will receive a grant of 150,000 restricted units in the operating partnership of the Company (“OP Units”) on the Effective Date, a grant of 99,078 shares
of restricted common stock of the Company on January 1, 2012 and a grant of 99,078 shares of restricted common stock of the Company on January 1, 2013, which grants of OP Units and shares will vest ratably on each of the first, second and
third anniversaries of the date of grant. Employee’s rights and entitlements with respect to any such benefits shall be subject to the provisions of the EICP, which Employee acknowledges. 

(E) Employee shall receive a car allowance of $1,000 per month. 
 (F) Subject to, and in accordance with, their terms, Employee shall be entitled to participate in any plans, insurance policies or contracts maintained by the Company relating to retirement, health,
disability, vacation, auto, and other related benefits. These currently include health, dental and life insurance, and 401K. Employee is eligible to accrue compensated business days of PTO each year, initially accruing at the rate of one and
83/1000ths (1.083) days per month of service, beginning with the completion of Employee’s first month of service. After the completion of Employee’s first year of employment, for each additional year employed thereafter, Employee
shall accrue one additional day of PTO. By way of example only, 

  
 10 









 
Employee shall accrue PTO at a rate of one and 167/1000ths (1.167) days per month beginning the first day of his second year of employment. PTO is accrued on a calendar year basis with a
total maximum accrual of twenty-one (21) days per year. Up to five (5) days of unused PTO may be carried over from one year to the following year, but carried-over PTO must be used within the year following its accrual. Upon
Employee’s termination from the Company, current year accrued but unused PTO will be considered for payment to Employee, but carried-over PTO will not be paid to Employee. PTO generally may not be used in advance of its accrual, but any
unaccrued but used PTO will be considered an advance and will be deducted from Employee’s final paycheck upon termination. Employee is also eligible for eight (8) paid holidays per year as designated by the Company. Employee’s rights
and entitlements with respect to any such benefits shall be subject to the provisions of the relevant plans, contracts or policies providing such benefits. Nothing contained herein or in any employment offer shall be deemed to impose any obligation
on the Company to maintain or adopt any such plans, policies or contracts or to limit the Company’s right to modify or eliminate such plans, policies or contracts in its sole discretion. 

(G) Employee hereby acknowledges and agrees that, except as set forth in this Exhibit, he shall not be entitled to receive any other
compensation, payments or benefits in connection with his employment under this Agreement.
