Leading scorer Adam Rooney and Northern Ireland international Niall McGinn are among four Aberdeen players to sign extended deals.
Rooney has scored 17 goals in 24 appearances in all competitions for the Dons this season and he has agreed a three-and-a-half-year contract extension.
Midfielder McGinn has committed his future to the club until the summer of 2017, as have promising youngsters Lawrence Shankland and Scott McKenna.
"Adam and Niall are key players within the team while both Lawrence and Scott have the potential to develop into first team regulars in the not too distant future,” Aberdeen manager Derek McInnes told the club’s official website.
“I've always said that, while we've enjoyed a fruitful 2014, there is still a great deal of work to be done.
“Securing players who we want to be part of our journey is vital if we want to achieve the success that everyone at the club craves."
