Item 5.02.Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

 

On February 22, 2013, N. Anthony Coles, a director of Campus Crest Communities, Inc., a Maryland corporation, (the “Company”), informed the Board of Directors that he would not stand for re-election at the Annual Shareholders’ Meeting of the Company to be held on April 22, 2013 (the “Annual Meeting”). Due to the recent successes of Onyx Pharmaceuticals, Inc., a publicly-traded biopharmaceutical company (“Onyx”), where Dr. Coles was recently named Chairman in addition to his duties as President and Chief Executive Officer, Dr. Coles has determined that due to the demands on his time, he will not stand for re-election as a director in order to devote the majority of his time to Onyx. During his tenure as a Director at Campus Crest, Dr. Coles was a great contributor to the Board of Directors and the committees on which he served. The Board and all of Campus Crest wish him well and will miss him. Dr. Coles will continue to serve as a director for the remainder of his current term, which is scheduled to expire on the date of the Annual Meeting.
