Dear Sirs:

1. Introductory. The shareholders listed in Schedule I hereto (“Selling Shareholders”) propose severally to sell to the several underwriters named in Schedule II hereto (the “Underwriters”) an aggregate of 10,000,000 American Depositary Shares (each an “ADS” and collectively, “Firm Securities”), each ADS representing six of the Company’s ordinary shares, par value US$ 0.000001 per share (“Ordinary Shares”) of Actions Semiconductor Co., Ltd., a Cayman Islands company (the “Company”). Certain of the Selling Shareholders propose to sell to the Underwriters, at the option of the Underwriters, an aggregate of not more than 1,500,000 additional ADSs (such 1,500,000 additional ADSs being hereinafter referred to as the “Optional Securities”). The Firm Securities and the Optional Securities are herein collectively called the “Offered Securities”. It is understood that, subject to the conditions hereinafter stated: (a) certain Offered Securities will be sold to the Underwriters in connection with the offering and sale of such Offered Securities in the United States and Canada (the “U.S. Offering”) and (b) certain Offered Securities will be sold to the Underwriters in connection with the offering and sale of such Offered Securities outside the United States and Canada (the “International Offering”) to persons other than United States and Canadian persons in compliance with Regulation S of the United States Securities Act of 1933 (the “Act”).

The ADSs purchased by the Underwriters will be evidenced by American Depositary Receipts (“ADRs”) issued pursuant to a Deposit Agreement dated as of December 5, 2005 (the “Deposit Agreement”), among the Company, JPMorgan Chase Bank, as depositary (the “Depositary”), and all holders from time to time of the ADRs. Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx & Co. International Limited and Citigroup Global Markets Inc. shall act as the representatives (the “Representatives”) of the Underwriters.

The Company has filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) a registration statement, including a prospectus, relating to the Offered Securities. The registration statement as amended at the time it becomes effective, including the information (if any) deemed to be part of the registration statement at the time of effectiveness pursuant to Rule 430A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), is hereinafter referred to as the “Registration Statement”; the prospectus in the form first used to confirm sales of Shares (or in the form first made available to the Underwriters by the Company to meet requests of purchasers pursuant to Rule 173 under the Securities Act) is hereinafter referred to as the “Prospectus.” If the Company has filed an abbreviated registration statement to register additional securities pursuant to Rule 462(b) (“Rule 462(b)”) under the Securities Act (the “Rule 462 Registration Statement”), then any reference herein to the term “Registration Statement” shall be deemed to include such Rule 462 Registration Statement.

For purposes of this Agreement, “free writing prospectus” has the meaning set forth in Rule 405 under the Securities Act, “Time of Sale Prospectus” means the preliminary prospectus together with the free writing prospectuses, if any, each identified in Schedule III hereto and any other free writing prospectus that the parties hereto shall thereafter expressly agree in writing to be included in the Time of Sale Prospectus, and “broadly available road show” means a “bona fide electronic road show” as defined in Rule 433(h)(5) under the Securities Act that has been made available without restriction to any person. As used herein, the terms “Registration Statement,” “preliminary prospectus,” “Time of Sale Prospectus” and “Prospectus” shall include the documents, if any, incorporated by reference therein.

2. Representations and Warranties of the Company. (a) The Company represents and warrants to, and agrees with, the several Underwriters that:

(i) The Registration Statement has become effective; no stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement is in effect, and no proceedings for such purpose are pending before or threatened by the Commission.

(ii) (A) The Registration Statement, when it became effective did not, and on the date hereof does not, contain and, as amended or supplemented, if applicable, will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, (B) the Registration Statement and the Prospectus comply and, as amended or supplemented, if applicable, will comply in all material respects with the Securities Act and the applicable rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder, (C) the Time of Sale Prospectus does not, and at the time of each sale of the Shares in connection with the offering when the Prospectus is not yet available to prospective purchasers and at the Closing Date (as defined in Section 5), the Time of Sale Prospectus, as then amended or supplemented by the Company, if applicable, will not, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, (D) each broadly available road show, if any, when considered together with the Time of Sale Prospectus, does not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading and (E) the Prospectus does not contain on the date hereof, on the First Closing Date and on each Optional Closing Date and, as amended or supplemented, if applicable, will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, except that the representations and warranties set forth in this paragraph do not apply to statements or omissions in the Registration Statement, the Time of Sale Prospectus or the Prospectus based upon information relating to any Underwriter furnished to the Company in writing by such Underwriter through you expressly for use therein.

(v) The Company’s Amended and Restated Articles of Association comply with the requirements of the applicable laws of Cayman Islands, including the Companies Law ([2004 Revision]), and are in full force and effect. Neither the Company nor any of the Subsidiaries is (i) in violation of its memorandum of association or articles of association (or other constitutive documents) or (ii) in default of the performance or observance of any material obligation, agreement, covenant or condition contained in any contract, indenture, mortgage, deed or trust, loan or credit agreement, note, license, lease or other agreement or instrument to which it is a party or by which it may be bound, or to which any of its properties or assets may be subject (and no event has occurred which, with the giving of notices or lapse of time or both, would constitute such default).

Each of the PRC Subsidiaries has been duly established as a wholly foreign-owned enterprise with limited liability legal person status under the laws and regulations of the PRC. The businesses conducted by each of the PRC Subsidiaries, in the manner presently conducted, do not exceed the scope of business permitted in its respective business license.

The articles of association of each of the PRC Subsidiaries comply with all applicable laws and regulations of the PRC and have been approved by relevant PRC governmental authorities and are in full force and effect. The entire amount of registered capital as stated in each PRC Subsidiary’s articles of association and business license as amended from time to time has been fully and timely contributed by the Company, verified by qualified independent accounting firms confirming the Company’s contribution of the entire amount of registered capital of each PRC Subsidiary, and filed and registered with relevant PRC registration authorities.

(xxx) None of the Company, its subsidiaries nor any of their officers or directors has paid, promised or authorized the payment, directly or indirectly, of any monies or any thing of value, in each case to the extent that such payment, promise or authorization constitutes bribery in breach of applicable laws of the Cayman Islands, Hong Kong, the PRC, or Mauritius, to any government official, political or governmental organization or employee of any political party or to any other person charged with similar public or quasi-public duties or for the purpose of influencing any act or decision of such official or of the government to obtain or retain business, or direct business to the Company or any of its subsidiaries other than, in each case, any payments required by any applicable jurisdiction or permitted by any applicable laws (any such act, a “Prohibited Payment”). A Prohibited Payment does not include the payment of reasonable and bona fide expenditures, such as travel and lodging expenses, which are directly related to the promotion, demonstration or explanation of products or services, or the execution or performance of a contract with a government authority or agency thereof; provided that such payments are permissible under applicable laws.

(b) Each Selling Shareholder, severally and not jointly, will indemnify and hold harmless each Underwriter, its partners, members, directors, officers and its affiliates and each person who controls such Underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act, against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which such Underwriter may become subject, under the Act or otherwise, in insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in the Registration Statement or any amendment thereof, any preliminary prospectus, the Time of Sale Prospectus, any issuer free writing prospectus as defined in Rule 433(h) under the Securities Act, any Company information that the Company has filed, or is required to file, pursuant to Rule 433(d) of the Securities Act, the Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto, or any broadly available road show, or caused by the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and will reimburse each Underwriter for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such Underwriter in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action as such expenses are incurred; provided, however, that each Selling Shareholder shall only be subject to such liability to the extent that the untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission is based upon information provided by such Selling Shareholders or contained in a representation or warranty given by such Selling Shareholders in this Agreement or (if relevant) the Custody Agreement; and provided, further, that the liability under this subsection of each Selling Shareholder shall be limited to an amount equal to the aggregate gross proceeds after deduction of underwriting commissions and discounts, but before deduction of expenses, to such Selling Shareholders from the sale of Offered Securities sold by such Selling Shareholders hereunder.

(c) Each Underwriter will severally and not jointly indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its directors and officers and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act, and each Selling Shareholder against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which the Company or such Selling Shareholder may become subject, under the Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in the Registration Statement or any amendment thereof, any preliminary prospectus, the Time of Sale Prospectus, any issuer free writing prospectus as defined in Rule 433(h) under the Securities Act, any Company information that the Company has filed, or is required to file, pursuant to Rule 433(d) of the Securities Act, the Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto, or any broadly available road show, or caused by any omission or the alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by such Underwriter through the Representatives specifically for use therein, and will reimburse any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the Company and each Selling Shareholder in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action as such expenses are incurred, it being understood and agreed that the only such information furnished by any Underwriter consists of the following information in the Prospectus furnished on behalf of each Underwriter: their respective names, the concession and reallowance figures appearing in the paragraphs under the caption “Underwriting”.

(d) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 7 of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against an indemnifying party under subsection (a), (b) or (c) above, notify the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof; but the failure to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability that it may have under subsection (a), (b) or (c) above except to the extent that it has been materially prejudiced (through the forfeiture of substantive rights or defenses) by such failure; and provided further that the failure to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability that it may have to an indemnified party otherwise than under subsection (a), (b) or (c) above. In case any such action is brought against any indemnified party and it notifies an indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it may wish, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel satisfactory to such indemnified party (who shall not, except with the consent of the indemnified party, be counsel to the indemnifying party), and after notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume the defense thereof, the indemnifying party will not be liable to such indemnified party under this Section 7 for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened action in respect of which any indemnified party is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such indemnified party unless such (i) settlement includes an unconditional release of such indemnified party from all liability on any claims that are the subject matter of such action and (ii) does not include a statement as to, or an admission of, fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of an indemnified party.

(e) If the indemnification provided for in this Section is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under subsection (a), (b) or (c) above, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to in subsection (a), (b) or (c) above (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company and the Selling Shareholders on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other from the offering of the Offered Securities or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of the Company and the Selling Shareholders on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company and the Selling Shareholders on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total net proceeds from the offering (before deducting expenses) received by the Company and the Selling Shareholders bear to the total underwriting discounts and commissions received by the Underwriters. The relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company, the Selling Shareholders or the Underwriters and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such untrue statement or omission. The amount paid by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to in the first sentence of this subsection (e) shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any action or claim which is the subject of this subsection (e). Notwithstanding the provisions of this subsection (e), no Underwriter shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total price at which the Offered Securities underwritten by it and distributed to the public were offered to the public exceeds the amount of any damages which such Underwriter has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The Underwriters’ obligations in this subsection (e) to contribute are several in proportion to their respective underwriting obligations and not joint.

(f) The obligations of the Company and the Selling Shareholders under this Section 7 shall be in addition to any liability which the Company and the Selling Shareholders may otherwise have and shall extend, upon the same terms and conditions, to each person, if any, who controls any Underwriter within the meaning of the Act; and the obligations of the Underwriters under this Section shall be in addition to any liability which the respective Underwriters may otherwise have and shall extend, upon the same terms and conditions, to each director of the Company, to each officer of the Company who has signed a Registration Statement and to each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Act.

8. Effectiveness; Defaulting Underwriters. If any Underwriter or Underwriters default in their obligations to purchase Offered Securities hereunder on either the First or any Optional Closing Date and the aggregate number of shares of Offered Securities that such defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but failed to purchase does not exceed 10% of the total number of shares of Offered Securities that the Underwriters are obligated to purchase on such Closing Date, the Representatives may make arrangements satisfactory to the Company and the Selling Shareholders for the purchase of such Offered Securities by other persons, including any of the Underwriters, but if no such arrangements are made by such Closing Date, the non-defaulting Underwriters shall be obligated severally, in proportion to their respective commitments hereunder, to purchase the Offered Securities that such defaulting Underwriters agreed but failed to purchase on such Closing Date. If any Underwriter or Underwriters so default and the aggregate number of shares of Offered Securities with respect to which such default or defaults occur exceeds 10% of the total number of shares of Offered Securities that the Underwriters are obligated to purchase on such Closing Date and arrangements satisfactory to the Representatives, the Company and the Selling Shareholders for the purchase of such Offered Securities by other persons are not made within 36 hours after such default, this Agreement will terminate without liability on the part of any non-defaulting Underwriter, the Company or the Selling Shareholders, except as provided in Section 9 (provided that if such default occurs with respect to Optional Securities after the First Closing Date, this Agreement will not terminate as to the Firm Securities or any Optional Securities purchased prior to such termination). As used in this Agreement, the term “Underwriter” includes any person substituted for an Underwriter under this Section. Nothing herein will relieve a defaulting Underwriter from liability for its default.

If this Agreement shall be terminated by the Underwriters, or any of them, because of any failure or refusal on the part of the Company or any Selling Shareholder to comply with the terms or to fulfill any of the conditions of this Agreement, or if for any reason the Company or any Selling Shareholder shall be unable to perform its obligations under this Agreement, the Company and the Selling Shareholders will reimburse the Underwriters or such Underwriters as have so terminated this Agreement with respect to themselves, severally, for all out-of-pocket expenses (including the fees and disbursements of their counsel) reasonably incurred by such Underwriters in connection with this Agreement or the offering contemplated hereunder.

9. Survival of Certain Representations and Obligations. The respective indemnities, agreements, representations, warranties and other statements of the Selling Shareholders, of the Company or its officers and of the several Underwriters set forth in or made pursuant to this Agreement will remain in full force and effect, regardless of any investigation, or statement as to the results thereof, made by or on behalf of any Underwriter, any Selling Shareholder, the Company or any of their respective representative, officers or directors or any controlling person, and will survive delivery of and payment for the Offered Securities. If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 8 or if for any reason the purchase of the Offered Securities by the Underwriters is not consummated, the Company and the Selling Shareholders shall remain responsible for the expenses to be paid or reimbursed by them pursuant to Section 5(m) and the respective obligations of the Company, the Selling Shareholders, and the Underwriters pursuant to Section 7 shall remain in effect, and if any Offered Securities have been purchased hereunder the representations and warranties in Section 2 and all obligations under Section 5 shall also remain in effect. If the purchase of the Offered Securities by the Underwriters is not consummated for any reason other than solely because of the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 8 or the occurrence of any event specified in clause (ii), (iii), (iv), (v) and (vi) or (vii) of Section 6(c), the Company and the Selling Shareholders will, jointly and severally, reimburse the Underwriters for all out-of-pocket expenses (including fees and disbursements of counsel) reasonably incurred by them in connection with the offering of the Offered Securities.

10. Notices. All communications hereunder will be in writing and, if sent to the Underwriters, will be mailed, delivered or telegraphed and confirmed to: (a) Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx & Co.

12. Representation. The Representatives will act for the several Underwriters in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Any action under this Agreement taken by the Representatives will be binding upon all Underwriters.

13. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all such counterparts shall together constitute one and the same Agreement.

14. Absence of Fiduciary Relationship. The Company and each Selling Shareholder acknowledge and agree that:

(a) The Representatives have been retained solely to act as an underwriter in connection with the sale of the Offered Securities and that no fiduciary, advisory or agency relationship between the Company or the Selling Shareholders, on the one hand, and the Representatives, on the other, has been created in respect of any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, irrespective of whether the Representatives have advised or are advising the Company or the Selling Shareholders on other matters;

(b) the price of the Offered Securities set forth in this Agreement was established by the Company and the Selling Shareholders following discussions and arms-length negotiations with the Representatives and the Company and the Selling Shareholders are capable of evaluating and understanding and understand and accept the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement;

(c) the Company and the Selling Shareholders have been advised that the Representatives and their affiliates are engaged in a broad range of transactions which may involve interests that differ from those of the Company or the Selling Shareholders and that the Representatives have no obligation to disclose such interests and transactions to the Company or the Selling Shareholders by virtue of any fiduciary, advisory or agency relationship; and

(d) the Company and the Selling Shareholders waive, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any claims they may have against the Representatives for breach of fiduciary duty or alleged breach of fiduciary duty and agree that the Representatives shall have no liability (whether direct or indirect) to the Company or the Selling Shareholders in respect of such a fiduciary duty claim or to any person asserting a fiduciary duty claim on behalf of or in right of the Company, including stockholders, employees or creditors of the Company.

15. Applicable Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York, without regard to principles of conflicts of laws.

The Company and the Selling Shareholders hereby submit to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the Federal and state courts in the Borough of Manhattan in The City of New York in any suit or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby. Each of the Company and the Selling Shareholders waive, to the fullest extent it may effectively do so, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any such suit, action or proceeding and any claim that any such proceeding brought in such a court has been brought in an inconvenient forum. The Company and the Selling Shareholders irrevocably appoint Corporation Service Company, 0000 Xxxxxx xx xxx Xxxxxxxx, Xxxxx 0000, Xxx Xxxx, XX 00000, as their respective authorized agent in the Borough of Manhattan in The City of New York upon which process may be served in any such suit or proceeding, and agree that service of process upon such agent, and written notice of said service to the Company and the Selling Shareholders by the person serving the same to the address provided in Section 10, shall be deemed in every respect effective service of process upon the Company and the Selling Shareholders in any such suit or proceeding. The Company and the Selling Shareholders further agree to take any and all action as may be necessary to maintain such designation and appointment of such agent in full force and effect for a period of seven years from the date of this Agreement.

The obligation of the Company or any Selling Shareholder in respect of any sum due to any Underwriter shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency other than United States dollars, not be discharged until the first business day, following receipt by such Underwriter of any sum adjudged to be so due in such other currency, on which (and only to the extent that) such Underwriter may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase United States dollars with such other currency; if the United States dollars so purchased are less than the sum originally due to such Underwriter hereunder, the Company and such Selling Shareholder agree, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify such Underwriter against such loss. If the United States dollars so purchased are greater than the sum originally due to such Underwriter hereunder, such Underwriter agrees to pay to the Company or such Selling Shareholder an amount equal to the excess of the dollars so purchased over the sum originally due to such Underwriter hereunder.

If the foregoing is in accordance with the Representatives’ understanding of our agreement, kindly sign and return to the Company one of the counterparts hereof, whereupon it will become a binding agreement among the Selling Shareholders, the Company and the several Underwriters in accordance with its terms.

The People’s Republic of China

Dear Sirs:

We have audited the consolidated balance sheets of Actions Semiconductors Co., Ltd. (the “Company”) and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2005, and 2004, and the consolidated statements of operations, shareholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2005, all included in the registration statement (No. 333-135906) on Form F-1 filed by the Company under the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Act”); our reports with respect thereto are also included in that registration statement. The registration statement, dated September [ ], 2006, is herein referred to as the registration statement.

In connection with the registration statement:

We are an independent registered public accounting firm with respect to the Company within the meaning of the Act and the applicable rules and regulations thereunder adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”).

2.	In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements audited by us and included in the registration statement comply as to form in all material respects with the applicable accounting requirements of the Act and the related rules and regulations adopted by the SEC.

We have not audited any financial statements of the Company as of any date or for any period subsequent to December 31, 2005; although we have conducted an audit for the year ended December 31, 2005, the purpose (and therefore the scope) of the audit was to enable us to express our opinion on the consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2005, and for the year then ended, but not on the financial statements for any interim period within that year. Therefore, we are unable to and do not express any opinion on the unaudited consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2006, and the unaudited consolidated statements of operations, shareholders’ equity, and cash flows for the six-month period ended June 30, 2006 and 2005, included in the registration statement, or on the financial position, results of operations, or cash flows as of any date or for any period subsequent to December 31, 2005.

For purposes of this letter, we have read the 2006 minutes of meetings of the shareholders and the board of directors of the Company and its subsidiaries as set forth in the minutes books at [X, 2006], officials of the Company having advised us that the minutes of all such meetings through that date were set forth therein; we have carried out other procedures to [X, 2006], as follows (our work did not extend to the period from [X, 2006], to [X, 2006], inclusive):

With respect to the four quarters in the year ended December 31, 2004, four quarters in the year ended December 31, 2005 and two quarters in the period ended June 30, 2006, we have:

(i)

Read the unaudited quarterly financial information for each of the 10 quarters in the period ended June 30, 2006 as set forth under the heading “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Quarterly Financial Information” on page [45] of the registration statement;

(ii)

Performed the procedures specified by the PCAOB for a review of interim financial information as described in SAS 100, Interim Financial Information, on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets as of each quarter ended in the period from January 1, 2004 to June 30, 2006 and the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations for each of the quarters then ended, from which the unaudited amounts referred to in a(i) are derived. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for each of the quarters referred to above are incomplete in that they omit the statements of shareholders’ equity and comprehensive income, and cash flows, and other disclosures.

(iii)

Inquired of certain officials of the Company who have responsibility for financial and accounting matters whether the unaudited amounts referred to in 4a(i) are stated on a basis substantially consistent with that of the corresponding amounts in the audited consolidated statements of operations.

With respect to the six-month period ended June 30, 2006 and 2005, we have:

(i)

Performed the procedures specified by the PCAOB for a review of interim financial information as described in SAS 100, Interim Financial Information, on the unaudited consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2006, and unaudited consolidated statements of operations, shareholders’ equity, and cash flows for the six-month period ended June 30, 2006 and 2005, included in the registration statement.

(ii)

Inquired of certain officials of the Company who have responsibility for financial and accounting matters whether the unaudited consolidated financial statements referred to in 4b(i) comply as to form in all material respects with the applicable accounting requirements of the Act and the related rules and regulations adopted by the SEC.

With respect to the period from July 1, 2006 to August 31, 2006, we have:

(i)

Read the unaudited consolidated financial statements of the Company and subsidiaries for July and August 2006 furnished us by the Company, officials of the Company having advised us that no such financial statements as of any date or for any period subsequent to August 31, 2006, were available. The financial information for July and August 2006 is incomplete in that it omits the statements of sharholders’ equity and comprehensive income, and cash flows, and other disclosures.

(ii)

Inquired of certain officials of the Company who have responsibility for financial and accounting matters whether the unaudited amounts referred to in 4c(i) are stated on a basis substantially consistent with that of the corresponding amounts in the audited consolidated statements of operations.

The foregoing procedures do not constitute an audit conducted in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Also, they would not necessarily reveal matters of significance with respect to the comments in the following paragraph. Accordingly, we make no representations regarding the sufficiency of the foregoing procedures for your purposes.

5.	Nothing came to our attention as a result of the foregoing procedures, however, that caused us to believe that:

a. (i)

The unaudited quarterly financial information for the four quarters in the year ended December 31, 2004, four quarters in the year ended December 31, 2005 and two quarters in the period ended June 30, 2006 referred to in 4a(i) do not agree with the applicable amounts set forth in the unaudited consolidated financial statements for the four quarters in the year ended December 31, 2004, four quarters in the year ended December 31, 2005 and two quarters in the period ended June 30, 2006.

(ii)

The unaudited amounts referred to in 4a(i) were not determined on a basis substantially consistent with that of the corresponding amounts in the audited consolidated statements of operations included in the registration statement.

b. (i)

Any material modifications should be made to the unaudited consolidated financial statements described in 4b(i), included in the registration statement, for them to be in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

(ii)

The unaudited consolidated financial statements described in 4b(i) do not comply as to form in all material respects with the applicable accounting requirements of the Act and the related rules and regulations adopted by the SEC.

c. (i)

At [August 31, 2006], there was any change in the capital stock, increase in long-term debt, or decrease in consolidated net current assets or shareholders’ equity of the consolidated companies as compared with amounts shown in the June 30, 2006, unaudited consolidated balance sheet included in the registration statement, or

(ii)

For the period from July 1, 2006 to [August 31, 2006], there were any decreases, as compared with the corresponding period in the preceding year, in consolidated net sales or in the total or per-share amounts of net income, except in all instances for changes, increases, or decreases that the registration statement discloses have occurred or may occur.

As mentioned in 4c, Company officials have advised us that no consolidated financial statements as of any date or for any period subsequent to [August 31, 2006], are available; accordingly, the procedures carried out by us with respect to changes in financial statement items after [August 31, 2006], have, of necessity, been even more limited than those with respect to the periods referred to in 4. We have inquired of certain officials of the Company who have responsibility for financial and accounting matters whether (a) at [Date, 2006], there was any change in the capital stock, increase in long-term debt, or any decreases in consolidated net current assets or shareholders’ equity of the consolidated companies as compared with amounts shown on the June 30, 2006, unaudited consolidated balance sheet included in the registration statement or (b) for the period from July 1, 2006, to [Date, 2006], there were any decreases, as compared with the corresponding period in the preceding year, in consolidated net sales or in the total or per-share amounts of net income. On the basis of these inquiries and our reading of the minutes as described in 4, nothing came to our attention that caused us to believe that there was any such change, increase, or decrease, except in all instances for changes, increases, or decreases that the registration statement discloses have occurred or may occur.

For the purpose of this letter we have, at your request, also read the items identified by you on the attached copy of the registration statement, in respect of which one of the following tests were applied in each case as indicated by the corresponding letter (i.e. reference to the relevant sub-paragraph below) shown against the item:

Compared the amounts, description of such amounts and numbers to the corresponding information shown in the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements, including related notes for the respective periods, included in the registration statement, or to amounts derived from such statements and related notes and found them to be in agreement;

Proved the arithmetical accuracy of the amounts or percentages based on the data in the audited consolidated financial statements referred to in {A} (giving effect to rounding where applicable);

Compared the amounts, description of such amounts and numbers to the corresponding information in the Company’s unaudited consolidated financial statements referred to in 4b(ii) above and found them to be in agreement;

Proved the arithmetic accuracy of the amounts, numbers, percentages, and other ratios based on data in the Company’s unaudited consolidated financial statements referred to in {C} (giving effect to rounding where applicable);

Proved the arithmetic accuracy of the net tangible book value per ordinary share as of June 30, 2006, calculated by the Company using net tangible book value divided by outstanding shares;

Proved the arithmetic accuracy of the as adjusted numbers, which the Company has calculated by adjusting the actual numbers and amounts as of June 30, 2006 to reflect the issuance and sale of the ordinary shares represented by ADSs in the global offering at an initial public offering price of [US$X] per ADS after deducting underwriters’ discounts and commissions and other estimated expenses of the global offering. (However, we make no comment as to the reasonableness of the ordinary shares represented by ADSs to be sold by the Company or whether such sale will take place or the amounts of the selling price, underwriters’ discount and commissions and estimated expenses of the global offering);

Proved the arithmetic accuracy of the as adjusted net tangible book value, which the Company has calculated by adjusting the net tangible book value as of June 30, 2006 to reflect the issuance and sale of the ordinary shares represented by ADSs in the global offering at an initial public offering price of [US$X] per ADS after deducting underwriters’ discounts and commissions and other estimated expenses of the global offering. (However, we make no comment as to the reasonableness of the ordinary shares represented by ADSs to be sold by the Company or whether such sale will take place or the amounts of the selling price, underwriters’ discount and commissions and estimated expenses of the global offering);

Proved the arithmetic accuracy of the as adjusted net tangible book value per ordinary share as of June 30, 2006, which the Company has calculated using the adjusted net tangible book value divided by outstanding shares (However, we make no comment as to the reasonableness of the ordinary shares represented by ADSs to be sold by the Company or whether such sale will take place or the amounts of the selling price, underwriters’ discount and commissions and estimated expenses of the global offering);

Recomputed the amount by including the ADS ratio of 1 ADS to 6 ordinary shares;

Compared the amounts and numbers and descriptions of such amounts or numbers to the corresponding information in the Company’s general ledger or to the corresponding amounts or number in an schedule prepared by the Company’s accounting personnel and found them to be in agreement (giving effect to rounding where applicable). Amounts appearing in such schedule or report were compared with accounting records of the Company and found to be in agreement;

Compared the amounts or numbers to the corresponding amounts or numbers in a report or schedule prepared by the Company and found them to be in agreement (giving effect to rounding where applicable). Proved the arithmetic accuracy of the totals shown in the report or schedule and compared individual amounts found in such report or schedule with accounting records of the Company and found them to be in agreement;

Proved the arithmetical accuracy of the amounts, numbers or percentages based on the data included in the registration statement.

For the purposes of the above symbols, the following definitions apply:

The phrase “compared” means agreed and found to be in agreement unless otherwise noted. Such agreed amounts or percentages are deemed to be in agreement if differences are attributable to rounding.

ii.

The phrase “recomputed” means recalculated to determine mathematical accuracy and compared the results to the amount shown and found the amounts to be in agreement unless otherwise noted. Such recomputed amounts or percentages are deemed to be in agreement if differences are attributed to rounding.

Our audit of the consolidated financial statements for the periods referred to in the introductory paragraph of this letter comprised audit tests and procedures deemed necessary for the purpose of expressing an opinion on such financial statements taken as a whole. For none of the periods referred to therein, or any other period, did we perform audit tests for the purpose of expressing an opinion on individual balances of accounts or summaries of selected transactions such as those enumerated above, and accordingly, we express no opinion thereon.

It should be understood that we make no representations regarding questions of legal interpretation or regarding the sufficiency for your purposes of the procedures enumerated in the preceding paragraph; also such procedures would not necessarily reveal any material misstatement of the amounts or percentages listed above. Further, we have addressed ourselves solely to the foregoing data as set forth in the registration statement and make no representations regarding the adequacy of disclosure or regarding whether any material facts have been omitted.

10.

This letter is solely for the information of the addressees and to assist the underwriters in conducting and documenting their investigation of the affairs of the Company in connection with the offering of the securities covered by the registration statement, and it is not to be used, circulated, quoted, or otherwise referred to within or without the underwriting group for any purpose, including but not limited to the registration, purchase, or sale of securities, nor is it to be filed with or referred to in whole or in part in the registration statement or any other document, except that reference may be made to it in the underwriting agreement or in any list of closing documents pertaining to the offering of the securities covered by the registration statement.

Yours truly,

Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu

The undersigned, a registered holder of ordinary shares (a “Shareholder”) of Actions Semiconductor Co., Ltd., a Cayman Islands exempted company (the “Company”), understands (i) that the Company and certain Shareholders of the Company (collectively, the “Selling Shareholders”) propose, pursuant to an underwriting agreement (such agreement, in the form in which executed being herein called the “Underwriting Agreement”) with the several underwriters named therein (the “Underwriters”) to sell to the Underwriters a certain number of the Company’s ordinary shares, par value US$0.000001 per share (the “Shares”), and (ii) that the Shares will be deposited with JPMorgan Chase Bank N.A. against the issuance of American Depository Shares (“ADSs”), with each ADS representing six Shares.

2. This Power of Attorney and all authority conferred hereby are granted and conferred subject to the interests of the Underwriters and in consideration of those interests, and for the purpose of completing the transactions contemplated by the Underwriting Agreement and this Power of Attorney. This Power of Attorney and all authority conferred hereby shall be irrevocable and shall not be terminated by the undersigned or by operation of law, whether by the death or incapacity of the undersigned (if the undersigned is an individual), by the death or incapacity of any trustee or executor or the termination of any trust or estate (if the undersigned is a trust or an estate), or by the dissolution or liquidation of any corporation or partnership (if the undersigned is a corporation or partnership), or by the occurrence of any other event.

The undersigned hereby agrees that any third party receiving a duly executed copy or facsimile of this Power of Attorney may act hereunder, and that revocation or termination hereof shall be ineffective as to such third party unless and until actual written notice of such revocation or termination shall have been received by such third party, and the undersigned, for itself and for its heirs, executors, legal representatives and assigns, hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless any such third party against any and all claims that may arise against such third party by reason of such third party having relied on the provisions of this Power of Attorney.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Underwriting Agreement shall not be entered into and the transactions contemplated thereby shall not be consummated prior to the 180th day after the date of this Power of Attorney, then from and after such date the undersigned shall have the power to revoke all authority hereby conferred by giving notice on or promptly after such date to each of the Attorneys, with a copy to the Custodian, that this Power of Attorney has been terminated; subject, however, to all lawful action done or performed by the Attorneys or any one of them, pursuant to this Power of Attorney prior to the actual receipt of such notice.

3. Each of the Attorneys shall have full power to make and substitute any other person in his or her place and stead, and the undersigned hereby ratifies and confirms all actions that the Attorneys or their substitute or substitutes shall do pursuant to this Power of Attorney. Any Attorney, or his or her substitute, may undertake any of the actions hereunder. In the event of the death or incapacity or dissolution or liquidation of any Attorney, the remaining Attorneys shall appoint a substitute therefor.

6. The undersigned hereby represents and warrants to, and agrees with, each of the Attorneys that:

(a) this Power of Attorney has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the undersigned and is a legal, valid and binding instrument which irrevocably constitutes and appoints the Attorneys and grants and confers to each Attorney full power and authority to act together or alone, including full power of substitution, in the name of and for and on behalf of the undersigned with respect to all matters granted and conferred herein;

(c) the execution and delivery by the undersigned of, the performance by the undersigned of its obligations, and the granting of the authority to the Attorneys under, this Power of Attorney will not contravene or conflict with, result in a breach of, or constitute a default under, or require consent of any other party to any agreement or instrument to which the undersigned is bound or under which it is entitled to any right or benefit, any provision of applicable law or any judgment, order, decree or regulation applicable to the undersigned of any court, regulatory body, administrative agency, governmental body or arbitrator having jurisdiction over the undersigned, which has not been obtained.

7.
