Kilmarnock manager Gary Locke has released five experienced first-team players.
Lee Miller, Nathan Eccleston, Sammy Clingan, Paul Cairney and Chris Chantler have all been freed.
Northern Ireland midfielder Clingan has spent two-and-a-half seasons at Rugby Park while the other four joined in the past year.
Strikers Eccleston, who joined in February from Partick Thistle, and Miller only netted one goal each while former Hibernian midfielder Cairney only made three starts. Full-back Chantler made 29 appearances after joining from Carlisle.
Skipper Manuel Pascali and midfielder Alexei Eremenko have been offered one-year deals, but the Italian defender has indicated he will not sign it.
Pascali claimed on Twitter that there was a "small hope" he would stay at Rugby Park, but added that he was "not gonna beg anyone".
Eremenko also looks likely to leave Rugby Park, saying: "I would love to stay here - me and my family - but the offer on the table is just not acceptable. So, sadly it looks like I'm leaving, but that's football."
Killie also announced that young players Dylan Pooler, Euan Smith and Mark Thomson had been released.
