Terry Butcher has signed a new deal with newly-promoted Inverness which keeps him at the Highland club until 2012.
The Caley Thistle boss and his assistant Maurice Malpas both agreed new contracts earlier in the year but have now been secured on longer deals.
Chairman George Fraser told the club`s official website: "I'm delighted to say that we have concluded negotiations to ensure that Terry Butcher and Maurice Malpas stay in charge of our football operation until the end of the 2011-2012 season."
Fraser added: "The board took the decision in January to offer Terry and Maurice new one-year deals and they were happy to accept.
"It would be nice to think that action boosted continuity and confidence in the camp - it certainly coincided with our superb unbeaten run which has swept us away from our title rivals.
"Now that we are planning for life back in the SPL, I have held fresh talks with Terry and Maurice and reached agreement to tear up the one-year and replace it with a two-year contract.
"It is a well-merited reward for their excellent work here and hopefully provides forward stability for the club."
Butcher said: "It is very encouraging that the club have come forward with an extended contract for both of us.
"Maurice and I are very happy to commit ourselves to Caley Thistle, to which we have become very attached. There's such a superb spirit in the club and community.
"This should help us re-sign players - work on which is continuing - by letting them know that we're here for the long run."
