EXPLANATORY NOTE

This Post-Effective Amendment (this “Post-Effective Amendment”) relates to the Registration Statements on Form S-8 filed by Q2 Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Registrant”) to register shares of its Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”), issuable to eligible employees, consultants, and directors of the Registrant and its affiliates under the Registrant’s 2014 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2014 Plan”) on February 22, 2017 (File No. 333-216156), February 16, 2018 (File No. 333-223087), February 19, 2019 (File No. 333-229733), February 21, 2020 (File No. 333-236569), February 19, 2021 (File No. 333-253305), February 16, 2022 (File No. 333-262789), and February 21, 2023 (File No. 333-269895) (collectively, the “Prior Registration Statements”).

Effective June 1, 2023 (the “2023 Plan Effective Date”), the Registrant’s stockholders approved the Q2 Holdings, Inc. 2023 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2023 Plan”), and in connection therewith, no further awards will be made under the 2014 Plan as of and following the Effective Date. Pursuant to the terms of the 2023 Plan, the maximum number of shares that may be issued under the 2023 Plan will not exceed 14,045,352 shares, which is the sum of: (a) 7,605,541 shares, which is the number of shares available for grants of new awards under the 2014 Plan as of the 2023 Plan Effective Date, plus (b) shares subject to share awards granted under the 2014 Plan that are outstanding on the 2023 Plan Effective Date, and that: (i) are not issued because such share award or any portion thereof expires or otherwise terminates without all of the shares covered by such share award having been issued; (ii) are not issued because such award or any portion thereof is settled in cash; (iii) are forfeited back to or repurchased by the Registrant because of the failure to meet a contingency or condition required for the vesting of such shares; (iv) are withheld by the Registrant in satisfaction of payment of the purchase or exercise price, or (v) are withheld by the Registrant in satisfaction of tax withholding obligations. if any, as such shares become available from time to time, and such shares may consist of authorized but reissued or reacquired shares of Common Stock or any combination thereof
obligations related to such award (collectively, the “Rollover Shares”).

Accordingly, the Registrant is filing this Post-Effective Amendment pursuant to Item 512(a)(1)(iii) of Regulation S-K and Securities Act Forms Compliance and Disclosure Interpretation 126.43 to amend the Prior Registration Statements to register the offer of the Rollover Shares under the 2023 Plan (as such shares would no longer be issuable under the 2014 Plan as of the Effective Date). The Registrant incorporates the contents of the Prior Registration Statements herein by reference.

For the avoidance of doubt, the Registrant is not registering any additional shares of Common Stock on this Post-Effective Amendment, including any shares of Common Stock that were not previously approved by the Registrant’s stockholders as of the Effective Date.


PART I
The information specified in Items 1 and 2 of Part I of the Form S-8 is omitted from this filing in accordance with the provisions of Rule 428 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) and the introductory note to Part I of the Form S-8. The documents containing the information specified in Part I will be delivered to the participants in the 2023 Plan covered by this Post-Effective Amendment as required by Rule 428(b)(1).
PART II

All reports and definitive proxy or information statements filed pursuant to Section 13(a), 13(c), 14 or 15(d) of the 1934 Act after the date of this Registration Statement (except for any portions of the Registrant's Current Reports on Form 8-K furnished pursuant to Item 2.02 or Item 7.01 thereof and any corresponding exhibits thereto not filed with the Commission) and prior to the filing of a post-effective amendment which indicates that all securities offered hereby have been sold or which de-registers all securities then remaining unsold shall be deemed to be incorporated by reference into this Registration Statement and to be a part hereof from the date of filing of such documents. Any statement contained in a document incorporated by reference herein shall be deemed to be modified or superseded for purposes of this Registration Statement to the extent that a statement contained in any other subsequently filed document which also is or is deemed to be incorporated by reference herein modifies or supersedes such statement.

Item 4. Description of Securities
Not applicable.
Item 5. Interests of Named Counsel and Experts
Not applicable.
Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers
Section 102(b)(7) of the Delaware General Corporate Law (the “DGCL”) allows a corporation to provide in its certificate of incorporation that a director of the corporation will not be personally liable to the corporation or its shareholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except where the director breached the duty of loyalty, failed to act in good faith, engaged in intentional misconduct or knowingly violated a law, authorized the payment of a dividend or approved a stock repurchase in violation of Delaware corporate law or obtained an improper personal benefit.

Section 145 of the DGCL (“Section 145”) provides that a Delaware corporation may indemnify any person who was, is or is threatened to be made, party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of such corporation), by reason of the fact that such person is or was an officer, director, employee or agent of such corporation or is or was serving at the request of such corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation or enterprise. The indemnity may include expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with such action, suit or proceeding, provided such person acted in good faith and in a manner they reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the corporation’s best interests and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe that their conduct was illegal. A Delaware corporation may indemnify any persons who are, were or are a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the right of the corporation by reason of the fact that such person is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation or enterprise. The indemnity may include expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with the defense or settlement of such action or suit, provided such person acted in good faith and in a manner they reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the corporation’s best interests, provided that no indemnification is permitted without judicial approval if the officer, director, employee or agent is adjudged to be liable to the corporation. Where an officer or director is successful on the merits or otherwise in the defense of any action referred to above, the corporation must indemnify them against the expenses which such officer or director has actually and reasonably incurred.

Section 145 further authorizes a corporation to purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation or enterprise, against any liability asserted against them and incurred by them in any such capacity, or arising out of their status as such, whether or not the corporation would otherwise have the power to indemnify them under Section 145.

3


The Registrant’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation includes a provision that eliminates the personal liability of directors for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law.

In addition, the Registrant’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation and bylaws provide that it will indemnify its directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted by law. The Registrant also is expressly required to advance certain expenses to its directors and officers and is permitted to carry directors’ and officers’ insurance providing indemnification for its directors and officers for certain liabilities.

The Registrant has entered into separate indemnification agreements with each of its directors and executive officers. Each indemnification agreement provides, among other things, for indemnification to the fullest extent permitted by law and the Registrant’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation and bylaws against (i) any and all expenses and liabilities, including judgments, fines, penalties, interest and amounts paid in settlement of any claim with our approval and counsel fees and disbursements, (ii) any liability pursuant to a loan guarantee, or otherwise, for any of its indebtedness and (iii) any liabilities incurred as a result of acting on behalf of the Registrant (as a fiduciary or otherwise) in connection with an employee benefit plan. The indemnification agreements will provide for the advancement or payment of expenses to the indemnitee and for reimbursement to the Registrant if it is found that such indemnitee is not entitled to such indemnification under applicable law and the Registrant’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation and bylaws.

The indemnification provisions and the indemnification agreements entered into between the Registrant and its officers and directors may be sufficiently broad to permit indemnification of the Registrant’s officers and directors for liabilities arising under the Securities Act.

Item 9. Undertakings
(a) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:

(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement:
(i) To include any prospectus required by section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act;
(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or



decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the SEC pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement; and
(iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement;
Provided, however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) do not apply if the registration statement is on Form S-8, and the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed with or furnished to the SEC by the Registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the 1934 Act that are incorporated by reference herein.
(2) That for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new Registration Statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.
(b) The undersigned hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the Registrant’s annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the 1934 Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan’s annual report pursuant to section 15(d) of the 1934 Act) that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
(c) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the provisions described under Item 9 above, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the 1934 Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.



SIGNATURES
Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the Registrant certifies that it has reasonable grounds to believe that it meets all of the requirements for filing on Form S-8 and has duly caused this Post-Effective Amendment to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly authorized, in the City of Austin, State of Texas on this 2nd day of August, 2023.

Ladies and Gentlemen:

As legal counsel for Q2 Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), we are rendering this opinion in connection with the filing of the post-effective amendment on Form S-8 (as amended or supplemented, the “Post-Effective Amendment”) to (i) the Registration Statement on Form S-8 filed with the Commission on February 22, 2017 (File No. 333-216156), (ii) the Registration Statement on Form S-8 filed with the Commission on February 16, 2018 (File No. 333-223087), (iii) the Registration Statement on Form S-8 filed with the Commission on February 19, 2019 (File No. 333-229733), (iv) the Registration Statement on Form S-8 filed with the Commission on February 21, 2020 (File No. 333-236569), (v) the Registration Statement on Form S-8 filed with the Commission on February 19, 2021 (File No. 333-253305), (vi) the Registration Statement on Form S-8 filed with the Commission on February 16, 2022 (File No. 333-262789), and (vii) the Registration Statement on Form S-8 filed with the Commission on February 21, 2023 (File No. 333-269895), to be filed with the Commission on or about the date hereof under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), relating to up to 14,045,352 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”), authorized for issuance under the 2023 EIP, which includes (i) shares that remained available for issuance under the Company’s 2014 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2014 EIP”) as of the effective date of the Company’s 2023 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2023 EIP”) and (ii) shares that are subject to outstanding awards under the 2014 EIP that will become available for issuance under the 2023 EIP as a result of the expiration, termination, surrender, cancelation or cash settlement of such awards (collectively, the “2014 EIP Shares”), as described in the Post-Effective Amendment.

As the basis for the opinions hereinafter expressed, we have examined: (i) originals, or copies certified or otherwise identified, of (a) the Post-Effective Amendment and related prospectuses; (b) the Company’s Fifth Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation and Amended and Restated Bylaws, each as currently in effect; (c) the 2014 EIP and the forms of agreements thereunder; (d) the 2023 EIP; (e) certain resolutions of the Board of Directors and stockholders of the Company; and (f) such other instruments and documents as we have deemed necessary or advisable for the purposes of this opinion; and (ii) such statutes, including the Delaware General Corporation Law, and regulations as we have deemed necessary or advisable for the purposes of this opinion. In such examination, we have assumed the genuineness of all signatures and the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals and the conformity to the originals of all documents submitted to us as copies. As to certain factual matters, we have relied upon a certificate of an officer of the Company and have not independently verified any factual matter relating to this opinion.

We express no opinion concerning any law other than the law of the State of Texas, the corporation laws of the State of Delaware (including the statutory provisions, the applicable provisions of the Delaware Constitution and reported judicial decisions interpreting the foregoing) and the federal law of the United States. We have not obtained opinions of counsel licensed to practice in jurisdictions other than the State of Texas.

On the basis of the foregoing, we are of the opinion that any 2014 EIP Shares which may be issued under the 2023 EIP are duly authorized shares of the Company’s Common Stock and when such 2014 EIP Shares shall have been duly registered on the books of the transfer agent and registrar therefor in the name or on behalf of the purchasers and are issued by the Company in accordance with the terms of the 2023 EIP and the agreements thereunder, will be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable.



Exhibit 5.1
We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the Post-Effective Amendment referred to above and we consent to the reference of our name wherever it appears in such Post-Effective Amendment. In giving this consent, we do not thereby admit that we are within the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Securities Act, the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission promulgated thereunder or Item 509 of Regulation S-K.

This opinion letter is given to you solely for use in connection with the issuance of the 2014 EIP Shares in accordance with the Post-Effective Amendment and is not to be relied on for any other purpose. Our opinion is expressly limited to the matters set forth above, and we render no opinion, whether by implication or otherwise, as to any other matters relating to the Company, the 2014 EIP Shares or the Post-Effective Amendment.


Very truly yours,
