plans pose to QCR;
(ii) The compensation committee of QCR has identified and limited during the applicable period
any features of the SEO compensation plans that could lead SEOs to take unnecessary and excessive

any features of the employee compensation plans that pose risks to QCR and has limited those
features to ensure that QCR is not unnecessarily exposed to risks;
(iii) The compensation committee has reviewed, at least every six months during the applicable
period, the terms of each employee compensation plan and identified any features of the plan that
could encourage the manipulation of reported earnings of QCR to enhance the compensation of an

plans and employee compensation plans required under (i) and (iii) above;

directors, an SEO, or an executive officer with a similar level of responsibility were properly
approved;

Federal securities rules and regulations on the disclosures provided under the Federal securities
