Heach coach Rob Baxter said: "In Tom's last contract, the club had a clause in there that we could extend the contract if certain terms were met.
"We have decided to go with that, and have extended his deal by a further two years beyond the end of the 2016-17 season.
"I know he is delighted with that, and we are obviously very pleased that a player who came to us from the Championship and has been with us for a couple of seasons now sees his long-term future with us.
"Hopefully we can help keep developing him as not only a Premiership and European quality player, but also as an international."
