Nick Hawker has stepped down as chairman of Exeter City Supporters' Trust - the body that owns the League One club.
Hawker stood down as chairman of the football club board at Exeter City in June, and his resignation ends his formal ties with the club.
Hawker has also stood back from his role as one of the trustees of the body which took over the Grecians in 2003.
Vice-chair Nick Edwards is taking on the role as chairman on a short-term basis before an interim chair of the trust is appointed on 11 August.
"Nick has played a pivotal role in shaping the direction and values of the club and trust," a statement from the trust read.
"His years of service have seen us reach new heights both on and off the pitch, including promotion to League One, the Cliff Hill Training Ground facility, and purchases of the training ground and properties surrounding St James Park.
"The Trust Board would like to extend its heartfelt thanks to Nick for his tireless work and dedicated service over the years."
