The deal will keep the 23-year old at the club until at least the summer of 2025. It comes after Robert Baloucoune and Stewart Moore also agreed to extend their stay.
The full-back was rewarded for superb form this season with an Ireland debut against Italy during the Six Nations.

“He has had a phenomenal season, and I know Mike will be at the forefront of whatever this group of players achieves going forward.”
Michael Lowry added:
“I’m delighted to extend my time with Ulster. I’m excited to see what we can achieve in the next few seasons, and I definitely want to be a part of something special with this group.”
