New Morecambe boss Stephen Robinson has released eight players including long-serving Alex Kenyon and regular Stephen Hendrie as he reshapes his squad.
Yann Songo'o has also opted to leave to "pursue other opportunities".
Striker Cole Stockton has signed a new two-year contract keeping him with the club until the summer of 2023.
Toumani Diagouraga, Liam Gibson, John O'Sullivan, Kyle Letherhen and Kelvin Mellor have also been offered new deals after promotion to League One.
One-year contract extensions have also been triggered for Carlos Mendes Gomes, Aaron Wildig and Freddie Price.
In addition, loan players Ryan Cooney, Alex Denny and Brad Lyons have returned to their parent clubs, while centre-back Nat Knight-Percival joined Tranmere yesterday.
Morecambe appoint Robinson as new manager
"It's been a tough week having to make decisions on players very quickly, but we believe we have made the right decisions for the club going forward," Robinson told the club website.
"We decided to speak to each player individually; it's only fair to the players to do it that way, to let them know where they're at and allow them to move on in their careers."
Players released: Harry Davis, Mark Halstead, Alex Kenyon, Stephen Hendrie, Liam McAlinden, A-Jay Leitch-Smith, Ben Pringle and Jordan Slew.
