contents We report the first identification of an exceptional point (EP) within the Gamow Shell Model in the Coupled Channels representation (GSM-CC). In the spectrum of $^{7}$Li, an EP is found for the $5/2^-$ doublet, where the two states coalesce in both energy and width, the phase rigidity vanishes, and the S-matrix develops a double pole. These features manifest directly in observables: the elastic cross section acquires a split-peak structure, and the phase shift shows a single $2π$ jump. This work demonstrates that GSM-CC provides a powerful framework to explore EP phenomena in nuclei and their experimental signatures.
