Dutch express package delivery company TNT Express NV says its chief executive has resigned.
TNT is in the process of being acquired by United Parcel Service for $6.77bn, pending negotiations with European regulators.
TNT is Europe's second largest delivery company behind DHL.
Marie-Christine Lombard will quit work by the end of this month "to pursue an external career opportunity," the company said in a statement.
Chief Financial Officer Bernard Bot will take her place as interim CEO, the company said.
TNT repeated it expects its takeover by UPS to be completed by early next year.
