fiscal year starting on January&nbsp;1, 2014, by an amount equal to five percent (5%)&nbsp;of the number of shares of the Registrant&#146;s common stock issued and outstanding on each December&nbsp;31 immediately prior to the date of increase, but
not more than 3,050,000 shares, unless the Registrant&#146;s board of directors, in its discretion, determines to make a smaller increase (the provision of the 2012 Plan allowing for this annual increase is referred to as the &#147;Evergreen
Provision&#148;). On January&nbsp;1, 2016, the number of shares of the Registrant&#146;s common stock available for grant and issuance under the 2012 Plan increased by 1,720,706 shares. This Registration Statement registers these additional

EXPLANATORY NOTE
This Registration Statement on Form S-8 registers additional shares of common stock of Qualys, Inc. ("the Registrant") under the
Registrant's 2012 Equity Incentive Plan (the "2012 Plan"). The number of shares of the Registrant's common stock available for grant and issuance under the 2012 Plan is subject to an annual increase on the first day of each
fiscal year starting on January 1, 2014, by an amount equal to five percent (5%) of the number of shares of the Registrant's common stock issued and outstanding on each December 31 immediately prior to the date of increase, but
not more than 3,050,000 shares, unless the Registrant's board of directors, in its discretion, determines to make a smaller increase (the provision of the 2012 Plan allowing for this annual increase is referred to as the "Evergreen
Provision"). On January 1, 2016, the number of shares of the Registrant's common stock available for grant and issuance under the 2012 Plan increased by 1,720,706 shares. This Registration Statement registers these additional
1,720,706 shares of the Registrant's common stock, which were available for grant and issuance under the 2012 Plan pursuant to the Evergreen Provision as of January 1, 2016.

PART II
INFORMATION
REQUIRED IN REGISTRATION STATEMENT
Item 3. Incorporation of Documents by Reference.
The Registrant hereby incorporates by reference into this Registration Statement the following documents previously filed with the Commission:
(1) The Registrant's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015 filed with the Commission on
February 26, 2016 pursuant to Section 13(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act");
(2) The Registrant's Current Reports on Form 8-K filed with the Commission on January 27, 2016 and February 8, 2016, except, in
each case, to the extent that information therein is furnished and not filed with the Commission; and
(3) The description of the
Registrant's common stock contained in the Company's Registration Statement on Form 8-A (File No. 001-35662) filed with the Commission on September 24, 2012, pursuant to Section 12(b) of the Exchange Act, including any
amendment or report filed for the purpose of updating such description.
All documents filed by the Registrant pursuant to Sections 13(a), 13(c), 14 and 15(d) of the
Exchange Act on or after the date of this Registration Statement and prior to the filing of a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement that indicates that all securities offered have been sold or that deregisters all securities then
remaining unsold shall be deemed to be incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement and to be part hereof from the date of filing of such documents;
provided
,
however
, that documents or information deemed to have been
furnished and not filed in accordance with the rules of the Commission shall not be deemed incorporated by reference into this Registration Statement. Any statement contained in a document incorporated or deemed to be 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 herein or in any subsequently filed document which also is deemed to be incorporated by reference herein
modifies or supersedes such statement. Any such statement so modified or superseded shall not be deemed, except as so modified or superseded, to constitute a part of this Registration Statement.
Item 4. Description of Securities.
Not applicable.
Item 5. Interests of
Named Experts and Counsel.
As of the date of the filing of this Registration Statement, an attorney associated with Wilson Sonsini
Goodrich & Rosati, P.C. beneficially owned an aggregate of 13,275 shares of the Registrant's common stock.
Item 6. Indemnification
of Directors and Officers.
Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law authorizes a corporation's board of directors
to grant, and authorizes a court to award, indemnity to officers, directors and other corporate agents under certain circumstances.
As
permitted by Section 102(b)(7) of the Delaware General Corporation Law, the Registrant's Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as currently in effect, provides that the Registrant will indemnify its directors and officers, and
may indemnify its employees and other agents, to the fullest extent permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law. If the Delaware General Corporation Law is amended to authorize corporate action further eliminating or limiting the personal
liability of a director, then the liability of the Registrant's directors will be eliminated or limited to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware General Corporation Law, as so amended.
In addition, as permitted by Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, the Amended and Restated Bylaws of the Registrant, as
currently in effect, provide that:
•
The Registrant is required to indemnify its directors and officers for serving the Registrant in those capacities or for serving other business enterprises at the Registrant's request, to the fullest extent
permitted by Delaware law. Delaware law provides that a corporation may indemnify such person if such person acted in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Registrant and,
with respect to any criminal proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe such person's conduct was unlawful.
•
The Registrant may, in its discretion, indemnify employees and agents in those circumstances where indemnification is permitted by applicable law.
-2-
•
The Registrant is required to advance expenses, as incurred, to its directors and officers in connection with defending a proceeding, except that such director or officer shall undertake to repay such advances if it is
ultimately determined that such person is not entitled to indemnification.
•
The Registrant will not be obligated pursuant to the Amended and Restated Bylaws to indemnify a person with respect to proceedings initiated by that person, except with respect to proceedings authorized by the
Registrant's board of directors or brought to enforce a right to indemnification.
•
The rights conferred in the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws are not exclusive, and the Registrant is authorized to enter into indemnification agreements with its directors, officers,
employees and agents and to obtain insurance to indemnify such persons.
•
The Registrant may not retroactively amend the bylaw provisions to reduce its indemnification obligations to directors, officers, employees and agents.
In addition, the Registrant's policy is to enter into separate indemnification agreements with each of its directors and officers that
require the Registrant to indemnify its directors and officers, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, and also provide for certain procedural protections.
The indemnification obligations described above may be sufficiently broad to permit the indemnification of the Registrant's directors and
officers for liabilities (including reimbursement for expenses incurred) arising under the Securities Act.

Item 9. Undertakings.
A. The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:
-3-
(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 Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20 percent 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 information required to be included in a
post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the Registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in
this Registration Statement.
(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 Registrant 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 Exchange Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's annual report
pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange 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 foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Commission such indemnification is
against public policy as expressed in the Securities 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.
