<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0"><B>ZHUHAI, China, December 16, 2016</B>&nbsp;&ndash; Actions
Semiconductor Co., Ltd. (&ldquo;Actions Semiconductor&rdquo; or the &ldquo;Company&rdquo;) (NASDAQ:&nbsp;ACTS), one of China's
leading fabless semiconductor companies that provides comprehensive portable multimedia and mobile internet system-on-a-chip (SoC)
solutions for portable consumer electronics, today announced the completion of its merger (the &ldquo;Merger&rdquo;) with Starman
Limited (&ldquo;Merger Sub&rdquo;, a wholly owned subsidiary of Supernova Investment Ltd. (&ldquo;Parent&rdquo;), pursuant to the
previously announced agreement and plan of merger dated September 12, 2016 (the &ldquo;Merger Agreement&rdquo;), among the Company,
Parent, Merger Sub and other certain shareholders of the Company: Surrey Glory Investments Inc., Tongtong Investment Holding Co.,
Ltd., Perfectech Int&rsquo;l Ltd., Allpremier Investment Limited, Octovest International Holding Co., Ltd., Ventus Corporation,
Middlesex Holdings Corporation Inc, Rich Dragon Consultants Limited, Nutronics Technology Corporation, Uniglobe Securities Limited,
New Essential Holdings Limited, Embona Holdings (Malaysia) Limited, Suffolk Dragon Ventures Ltd, and Top Best Development Limited
(collectively with Parent, the &ldquo;Buyer Group&rdquo;). As a result of the Merger, Merger Sub has merged with and into the Company,
with the Company continuing as the surviving company and wholly owned by the Buyer Group.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, which was approved
at the extraordinary meeting of shareholders held on December 9, 2016, each of the Company's ordinary shares, par value&nbsp;US$0.00001&nbsp;per
share, issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the merger (the &quot;Shares&quot;) has been cancelled
in exchange for the right to receive&nbsp;US$0.366&nbsp;in cash without interest, and each American Depositary Share (&quot;ADS&quot;)
of the Company, every ADS representing six Shares, has been cancelled in exchange for the right to receive&nbsp;US$2.20&nbsp;in
cash without interest, except for (a)&nbsp;certain Shares (including Shares represented by ADSs) owned by the Rollover Shareholders,
each of which will continue to exist and become one ordinary share, par value of&nbsp;$0.00001&nbsp;each, of the surviving company,
(b) Shares (including Shares represented by ADSs) owned by the Company or any of its subsidiaries, (c) Shares reserved (but not
yet issued and allocated) by the Company for issuance and allotment upon exercise of any share incentive awards issued under the
Company's employee share incentive plans, and (d)&nbsp;Shares held by shareholders who have validly exercised and not effectively
withdrawn or lost their rights to dissent from the merger pursuant to Section&nbsp;238 of the Companies Law of the Cayman Islands
(the &quot;Dissenting Shares&quot;), which have been cancelled in exchange for the right to receive the payment of fair value of
the Dissenting Shares in accordance with Section&nbsp;238 of the Companies Law of the Cayman Islands.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">Shareholders of record as of the effective time of the Merger
who are entitled to the merger consideration will receive a letter of transmittal and instructions on how to surrender their share
certificates in exchange for the merger consideration (net of any applicable withholding taxes). Shareholders should wait to receive
the letter of transmittal before surrendering their share certificates. As to ADS holders entitled to the merger consideration,
payment of the merger consideration of US$2.20 per ADS in cash without interest (less a cancellation fee of US$0.05 per ADS and
net of any applicable withholding taxes) will be made to ADS holders promptly after JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., the Company&rsquo;s
ADS depositary, receives the merger consideration.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">The Company also announced today that it requested that trading
of its ADSs on the Nasdaq Global Market (&quot;NASDAQ&quot;) be suspended as of the close of trading on&nbsp;December 16, 2016.
The Company requested NASDAQ to file a Form 25 with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the &quot;SEC&quot;) notifying
the SEC of the delisting of its ADSs on NASDAQ and the deregistration of the Company's registered securities. The deregistration
will become effective 90 days after the filing of the Form&nbsp;25 or such shorter period as may be determined by the SEC. The
Company intends to suspend its reporting obligations under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, by filing a Form&nbsp;15
with the SEC. The Company&rsquo;s obligations to file with the SEC certain reports and forms, including Form 20-F and Form 6-K,
will be suspended immediately as of the filing date of the Form 15 and will terminate once the deregistration becomes effective.&nbsp;</P>
