Ladies and Gentlemen:

Pixelplus Co., Ltd. (the “Company”), a company incorporated in The Republic of Korea (“Korea”), proposes to issue and sell to the several Underwriters listed in Schedule 1 hereto (the “Underwriters”), for whom you are acting as representative (the “Representative”), an aggregate of American Depositary Shares, representing the right to receive an aggregate of common shares of the Company, par value Won 500 per share (the “Common Shares”). The American Depositary Shares to be sold by the Company are herein called the “Underwritten ADSs” and the Common Shares to be sold by the Company are herein called “Underwritten Shares”. In addition, the Selling Shareholders named in Schedule 2 hereto (the “Selling Shareholders”) propose to grant to the Underwriters an option to purchase up to American Depositary Shares (the “Option ADSs”) representing the right to receive an aggregate of additional Common Shares (the “Option Shares”). The Underwritten ADSs and the Option ADSs are herein referred to as the “ADSs” and the Underwritten Shares and the Option Shares are herein referred to as the “Shares”. The ADSs are to be issued pursuant to a deposit agreement (the “Deposit Agreement”) to be dated as of , 2005 among the Company, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. as Depositary (the “Depositary”), and the holders from time to time of the American Depositary Receipts (the “ADRs”) issued by the Depositary and evidencing the ADSs. Each ADS will initially represent the right to receive one-half of a Common Share deposited pursuant to the Deposit Agreement. The Shares in respect of the ADSs to be delivered on the Closing Date or the Additional Closing Date (each as hereinafter defined) are to be deposited with the Custodian (the “Custodian”) on behalf of the Depositary pursuant to the Deposit Agreement prior to the Closing Date or the Additional Closing Date, as the case may be, against issuance of ADRs evidencing such ADSs.

The Company hereby confirms its agreement with the several Underwriters concerning the purchase and sale of the ADSs, as follows:

1. Registration Statement. The Company has prepared and filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder (collectively, the “Securities Act”), a registration statement on Form F-1 (File No. 333- ) including a prospectus, relating to the Shares. Such registration statement, as amended at the time it becomes effective, including the information, if any, deemed pursuant to Rule 430A under the Securities Act to be part of the registration statement at the time of its effectiveness (“Rule 430A Information”), is referred to herein as the “Registration Statement”; and as used herein, the term “Preliminary Prospectus” means each prospectus included in such registration statement (and any amendments thereto) before it becomes effective, any prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(a) under the Securities Act and the prospectus included in the Registration Statement at the time of its effectiveness that omits Rule 430A Information, and the term “Prospectus” means the prospectus in the form first used to confirm sales of the Shares. If the Company has filed an abbreviated registration statement pursuant to 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. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings given to such terms in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus.

At or prior to the time when the sales were first made (the “Time of Sale”), the Company had prepared the following information (collectively [with the information referred to in the next succeeding sentence], the “Time of Sale Information”): a Preliminary Prospectus dated November , 2005, and each free-writing prospectus (as defined pursuant to Rule 405 under the Securities Act) listed on Annex A hereto. [In addition, you have informed us that the Underwriters have orally conveyed the pricing information set out on Annex A to prospective purchasers prior to confirming sales.]¹ If, subsequent to the date of this Agreement, the Company and the Underwriters have determined that such information included an untrue statement of material fact or omitted a statement of material fact necessary to make the information therein not misleading and have agreed to provide an opportunity to purchasers to terminate their old contracts and enter into new contracts, then “Time of Sale Information” will refer to the information available to purchasers at the time of entry into the first such new contract.

2. Purchase of the ADSs by the Underwriters.

(a) The Company agrees to sell the ADSs to the several Underwriters as provided in this Agreement, and each Underwriter, on the basis of the representations, warranties and agreements set forth herein and subject to the conditions set forth herein, agrees, severally and not jointly, to purchase from the Company the respective number of Underwritten ADSs set forth opposite such Underwriter’s name in Schedule 1 hereto at a purchase price of US$ per ADS (the “Purchase Price”), which represents the initial public offering price of US$ per ADS (the “Offering Price”) less the amount of underwriting discounts and commissions per ADS set forth in Section 2(d).

To be included if pricing information will be provided to buyers orally rather than through a term sheet (which would be a free writing prospectus and already listed on Annex B). Representation and warranties and opinions as to accuracy of the Time of Sale Information will include the pricing information, which will be listed on Annex B, on the assumption that the information will be conveyed by the Underwriters

In addition, each of the Selling Shareholders, severally and not jointly, agrees to sell the Option ADSs to the several Underwriters as provided in this Agreement, and the Underwriters, on the basis of the representations, warranties and agreements set forth herein and subject to the conditions set forth herein, shall have the option to purchase, severally and not jointly, from each of the Selling Shareholders, the Option ADSs at the Purchase Price.

If any Option ADSs are to be purchased, the number of Option ADSs to be purchased by each Underwriter shall be the number of Option ADSs which bears the same ratio to the aggregate number of Option ADSs being purchased as the number of Underwritten ADSs set forth opposite the name of such Underwriter in Schedule 1 hereto (or such number increased as set forth in Section 11 hereof) bears to the aggregate number of Underwritten ADSs being purchased from the Company and the Selling Shareholders by the several Underwriters, subject, however, to such adjustments to eliminate any fractional ADSs as the Representative in its sole discretion shall make.

The Underwriters may exercise the option to purchase the Option ADSs at any time in whole or in part from time to time on or before the thirtieth day following the date of this Agreement, by written notice from the Representative to the Company and the Selling Shareholders. Such notice shall set forth the aggregate number of Option ADSs as to which the option is being exercised and the date and time when the Option ADSs are to be delivered and paid for which may be the same date and time as the Closing Date (as hereinafter defined) but shall not be earlier than the Closing Date nor later than the tenth full business day (as hereinafter defined) after the date of such notice (unless such time and date are postponed in accordance with the provisions of Section 11 hereof). Any such notice shall be given at least two business days prior to the date and time of delivery specified therein.

(b) The Company and the Selling Shareholders understand that the Underwriters intend to make a public offering of the ADSs as soon after the effectiveness of this Agreement as, in the judgment of the Representative, is advisable, and initially to offer the ADSs on the terms set forth in the Prospectus. The Company and the Selling Shareholders acknowledge and agree that the Underwriters may offer and sell ADSs to or through any affiliate of an Underwriter and that any such affiliate may offer and sell ADSs purchased by it to or through any Underwriter.

(c) The time and date of (i) payment for the Underwritten ADSs shall be immediately prior to 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on , 2005 (which shall be on , 0000, Xxxxx time) and (ii) delivery of the Underwritten ADSs shall be immediately after 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on , 2005 of the Underwritten ADSs (which shall be on , 2005, Seoul time) or, in each case of (i) and (ii), at the same time on the same or such other date, not later than the fifth business day thereafter, as the Representative and the Company may agree upon in writing or, in the case of the Option ADSs, on the date and at the time specified by the Representative in the written notice of the Underwriters’ election to purchase such Option ADSs. The time and date of such delivery of the Underwritten ADSs is referred to herein as the “Closing Date” and the time and date for such delivery of the Option ADSs, if other than the Closing Date, is herein referred to as the “Additional Closing Date”, and each such time and date of delivery is herein referred to as the “Closing Date”.

(d) Immediately after the Company’s receipt of the payment for the aggregate Offering Price of the ADSs, the Company will issue a wire instruction that shall be irrevocable and unconditional (“Irrevocable Instruction”) to Hana Bank or a bank acceptable to the Representative on the Closing Date or the Additional Closing Date, as the case may be, to pay, or cause to be paid, to the Representative for the respective accounts of the several Underwriters, the underwriting discounts and commissions in an amount equal to US$ per ADS for the ADSs so purchased by such Underwriters hereunder (“Underwriting Commissions”). Payment of the Underwriting Commissions shall be made no later than the second business day after the Closing Date or the Additional Closing Date, as the case may be, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account designated by the Representative on the Irrevocable Instruction.

(e) The Underwritten ADSs and the Option ADSs to be purchased by each Underwriter, in such form and denominations and registered in such names as the Representative shall request in writing not later than two business days prior to the Closing Date or the Additional Closing Date, as the case may be, shall be delivered by or on behalf of the Company to the Representative for the respective accounts of such Underwriters, upon payment by such Underwriters pursuant to Section 2(c) hereof.

(f) Each of the Company and the Selling Shareholders acknowledges and agrees that the Underwriters are acting solely in the capacity of an arm’s length contractual counterparty to the Company and the Selling Shareholders with respect to the offering of the ADSs contemplated hereby (including in connection with determining the terms of the offering) and not as a financial advisor or a fiduciary to, or an agent of, the Company, the Selling Shareholders or any other person. Additionally, neither the Representative nor any other Underwriter is advising the Company, the Selling Shareholders or any other person as to any legal, tax, investment, accounting or regulatory matters in any jurisdiction. The Company and the Selling Shareholders shall consult with their own advisors concerning such matters and shall be responsible for making their own independent investigation and appraisal of the transactions contemplated hereby, and the Underwriters shall have no responsibility or liability to the Company or the Selling Shareholders with respect thereto. Any review by the Underwriters of the Company, the transactions contemplated hereby or other matters relating to such transactions will be performed solely for the benefit of the Underwriters and shall not be on behalf of the Company or the Selling Shareholders.

(b) Indemnification of the Underwriters by the Selling Shareholders. Each of the Selling Shareholders, severally and not jointly, in proportion to the number of Shares to be sold by such Selling Shareholder hereunder agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Underwriter, its affiliates, directors and officers and each person, if any, who controls such Underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, from and against any and all losses, claims, damages and liabilities (including, without limitation, reasonable legal fees and other expenses incurred in connection with any suit, action or proceeding or any claim asserted, as such fees and expenses are incurred), joint or several, that arise out of, or are based upon, (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement or the ADS Registration Statement or caused by any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, not misleading, (ii) or any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto), any Free Writing Prospectus or any Time of Sale Information, or caused by any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, but only to the extent that such losses, claims, damages or liabilities arise out of, or are based upon, any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission made in reliance upon and in conformity with the information relating to any Selling Shareholder furnished in writing to the Company by such Selling Shareholder expressly for use therein.

(c) Indemnification of the Company and the Selling Shareholders. Each Underwriter agrees, severally and not jointly, to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its directors, its officers who signed the Registration Statement and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, and each Selling Shareholder, its affiliates, directors and officers and each person, if any, who controls such Selling Shareholder within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, to the same extent as the indemnity set forth in paragraphs (a) and (b) above, but only with respect to any loss, claim, damage or liability that arises out of, or is based upon, any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission made in reliance upon and in conformity with any information relating to such Underwriter furnished to the Company in writing by such Underwriter through the Representative expressly for use in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto), any Free Writing Prospectus or any Time of Sale Information, it being understood and agreed upon that the only such information furnished by any Underwriter consists of the following information in the Prospectus furnished on behalf of each Underwriter: the concession and reallowance figures appearing in the third paragraph on page 122 of the Prospectus under the caption “Underwriting”, the information contained in the last paragraph on page 123 of the Prospectus and the first and second paragraphs on page 124 of the Prospectus in regards to passive market making/stabilization under the caption “Underwriting” [;and the following information in the Free Writing Prospectus dated , 20 : [insert description of information provided by Underwriters]].

(d) Notice and Procedures. If any suit, action, proceeding (including any governmental or regulatory investigation), claim or demand shall be brought or asserted against any person in respect of which indemnification may be sought pursuant to either paragraph (a), (b) or (c) above, such person (the “Indemnified Person”) shall promptly notify the person against whom such indemnification may be sought (the “Indemnifying Person”) in writing; provided that the failure to notify the Indemnifying Person shall not relieve it from any liability that it may have under this Section 8, 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 Person shall not relieve it from any liability that it may have to an Indemnified Person otherwise than under this Section 8. If any such proceeding shall be brought or asserted against an Indemnified Person and it shall have notified the Indemnifying Person thereof, the Indemnifying Person shall retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Person to represent the Indemnified Person and any others entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Section 8 that the Indemnifying Person may designate in such proceeding and shall promptly pay the fees and expenses of such counsel related to such proceeding, as incurred. In any such proceeding, any Indemnified Person shall have the right to retain its own counsel, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnified Person unless (i) the Indemnifying Person and the Indemnified Person shall have mutually agreed to the contrary; (ii) the Indemnifying Person has failed within a reasonable time to retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Person; (iii) the Indemnified Person shall have reasonably concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it that are different from or in addition to those available to the Indemnifying Person; or (iv) the named parties in any such proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both the Indemnifying Person and the Indemnified Person and representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between them. It is understood and agreed that the Indemnifying Person shall not, in connection with any proceeding or related proceeding in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm (in addition to any local counsel) for all Indemnified Persons, and that all such fees and expenses shall be paid or reimbursed as they are incurred. Any such separate firm for any Underwriter, its affiliates, directors and officers and any control persons of such Underwriter shall be designated in writing by Xxxxxxxxx & Company, Inc., any such separate firm for the Company, its directors, its officers who signed the Registration Statement and any control persons of the Company shall be designated in writing by the Company and any such separate firm for the Selling Shareholders shall be designated in writing by the Attorney-in-Fact. The Indemnifying Person shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent, but if settled with such consent or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff, the Indemnifying Person agrees to indemnify each Indemnified Person from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, if at any time an Indemnified Person shall have requested that an Indemnifying Person reimburse the Indemnified Person for fees and expenses of counsel as contemplated by this paragraph, the Indemnifying Person shall be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent if (i) such settlement is entered into more than 30 days after receipt by the Indemnifying Person of such request and (ii) the Indemnifying Person shall not have reimbursed the Indemnified Person in accordance with such request prior to the date of such settlement. No Indemnifying Person shall, without the written consent of the Indemnified Person, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which any Indemnified Person is or could have been a party and indemnification could have been sought hereunder by such Indemnified Person, unless such settlement (x) includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Person, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Person, from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such proceeding and (y) does not include any statement as to or any admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any Indemnified Person.

(e) Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in paragraphs (a), (b) and (c) above is unavailable to an Indemnified Person or insufficient in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to therein, then each Indemnifying Person under such paragraph, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Person thereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Person as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company, each of the Selling Shareholders and the Underwriters, as the case may be, from the offering of the ADSs or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) but also the relative fault of the Company, each of the Selling Shareholders and the Underwriters, as the case may be, in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company, each of the Selling Shareholders and the Underwriters shall be deemed to be in the same respective proportions as the net proceeds (before deducting expenses) received by the Company, each of the Selling Shareholders from the sale of the ADSs and the total underwriting discounts and commissions received by the Underwriters in connection therewith, in each case as set forth in the table on the cover of the Prospectus, bear to the aggregate offering price of the ADSs. The relative fault of the Company, each of the Selling Shareholders and the Underwriters 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, each of the Selling Shareholders or by the Underwriters and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.

(f) Limitation on Liability. The Company, the Selling Shareholders and the Underwriters agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 8 were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Selling Shareholders or the Underwriters were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in paragraph (e) above. The amount paid or payable by an Indemnified Person as a result of the losses, claims, damages and liabilities referred to in paragraph (e) above shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth above, any legal or other expenses incurred by such Indemnified Person in connection with any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 8, in no event shall an Underwriter be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total underwriting discounts and commissions received by such Underwriter with respect to the offering of the ADSs exceeds the amount of any damages that 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 Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The Underwriters’ obligations to contribute pursuant to this Section 8 are several in proportion to their respective purchase obligations hereunder and not joint. Further, notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 8, in no event shall any Selling Shareholder be required to indemnify or contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total Purchase Price for the ADSs sold by such Selling Shareholder to the Underwriters exceeds the amount of any damages that such Selling Shareholder has otherwise been required to pay. The Selling Shareholders’ obligations to indemnify or contribute pursuant to this Section 8 are several in proportion to their respective ADSs sold hereunder and not joint.

(g) Non-Exclusive Remedies. The remedies provided for in this Section 8 are not exclusive and shall not limit any right or remedy which may otherwise be available to any Indemnified Person at law or in equity.

9. Effectiveness of Agreement. This Agreement shall become effective upon the later of (i) the execution and delivery hereof by the parties hereto and (ii) receipt by the Company and the Representative of notice of the effectiveness of both the Registration Statement and the ADS Registration Statement (or, if applicable, any post-effective amendment thereto).

10. Termination. This Agreement may be terminated in the absolute discretion of the Representative, by notice to the Company and the Selling Shareholders, after the execution and delivery of this Agreement and prior to the Closing Date or, in the case of the Option ADSs, prior to the Additional Closing Date, if (i) trading generally shall have been suspended or materially limited on or by any of the New York Stock Exchange, the Nasdaq National Markets, or the Korea Stock Exchange; (ii) a general moratorium on commercial banking activities in New York City or in Korea shall have been declared by federal, New York State or the Korean authorities; or (iii) there shall have occurred any outbreak or escalation of hostilities or any change in financial markets or any calamity or crisis, either within or outside the United States, that, in the judgment of the Representative, is material and adverse and makes it impracticable or inadvisable to proceed with the offering, sale or delivery of the ADSs on the Closing Date or the Additional Closing Date, as the case may be, on the terms and in the manner contemplated by this Agreement, the Time of Sale Information and the Prospectus.

11. Defaulting Underwriter.

(a) If, on the Closing Date or the Additional Closing Date, as the case may be, any Underwriter defaults on its obligation to purchase the ADSs that it has agreed to purchase hereunder on such date, the non-defaulting Underwriters may in their discretion arrange for the purchase of such ADSs by other persons satisfactory to the Company on the terms contained in this Agreement. If, within 36 hours after any such default by any Underwriter, the non-defaulting Underwriters do not arrange for the purchase of such ADSs, then the Company shall be entitled to a further period of 36 hours within which to procure other persons satisfactory to the non-defaulting Underwriters to purchase such ADSs on such terms. If other persons become obligated or agree to purchase the ADSs of a defaulting Underwriter, either the non-defaulting Underwriters or the Company may postpone the Closing Date or the Additional Closing Date, as the case may be, for up to five full business days in order to effect any changes that in the opinion of U.S. counsel for the Company or U.S. counsel for the Underwriters may be necessary in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus or in any other document or arrangement, and the Company agrees to promptly prepare any amendment or supplement to the Registration Statement and the Prospectus that effects any such changes. As used in this Agreement, the term “Underwriter” includes, for all purposes of this Agreement unless the context otherwise requires, any person not listed in Schedule 1 hereto that, pursuant to this Section 11, purchases ADSs that a defaulting Underwriter agreed but failed to purchase.

(b) If, after giving effect to any arrangements for the purchase of the ADSs of a defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters by the non-defaulting Underwriters and the Company as provided in paragraph (a) above, the aggregate number of ADSs that remain unpurchased on the Closing Date or the Additional Closing Date, as the case may be, does not exceed one-eleventh of the aggregate number of ADSs to be purchased on such date, then the Company shall have the right to require each non-defaulting Underwriter to purchase the number of ADSs that such Underwriter agreed to purchase hereunder on such date plus such Underwriter’s pro rata share (based on the number of ADSs that such Underwriter agreed to purchase on such date) of the ADSs of such defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters for which such arrangements have not been made.

(c) If, after giving effect to any arrangements for the purchase of the ADSs of a defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters by the non-defaulting Underwriters and the Company as provided in paragraph (a) above, the aggregate number of ADSs that remain unpurchased on the Closing Date or the Additional Closing Date, as the case may be, exceeds one-eleventh of the aggregate amount of ADSs to be purchased on such date, or if the Company shall not exercise the right described in paragraph (b) above, then this Agreement or, with respect to any Additional Closing Date, the obligation of the Underwriters to purchase ADSs on the Additional Closing Date, as the case may be, shall terminate without liability on the part of the non-defaulting Underwriters. Any termination of this Agreement pursuant to this Section 11 shall be without liability on the part of the Company, except that the Company will continue to be liable for the payment of expenses as set forth in Section 12 hereof and except that the provisions of Section 8 hereof shall not terminate and shall remain in effect.

(d) Nothing contained herein shall relieve a defaulting Underwriter of any liability it may have to the Company or any non-defaulting Underwriter for damages caused by its default.

12. Payment of Expenses; Taxes. The Company, the Underwriters and the Selling Shareholders shall pay such fees, expenses and taxes incurred in connection with the transactions contemplated herein in accordance with the provisions of a side letter agreement dated the date hereof among such parties relating to the payment of such fees and expenses.

13. Persons Entitled to Benefit of Agreement. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective successors and the officers and directors and any controlling persons referred to in Section 8 hereof. Nothing in this Agreement is intended or shall be construed to give any other person any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or in respect of this Agreement or any provision contained herein. No purchaser of ADSs from any Underwriter shall be deemed to be a successor merely by reason of such purchase.

14. Survival. The respective indemnities, rights of contribution, representations, warranties and agreements of the Company, the Selling Shareholders and the Underwriters contained in this Agreement or made by or on behalf of the Company, the Selling Shareholders or the Underwriters pursuant to this Agreement or any certificate delivered pursuant hereto shall survive the delivery of and payment for the ADSs and shall remain in full force and effect, regardless of any termination of this Agreement or any investigation made by or on behalf of the Company, the Selling Shareholders or the Underwriters.

15. Certain Defined Terms. For purposes of this Agreement, (a) except where otherwise expressly provided, the term “affiliate” has the meaning set forth in Rule 405 under the Securities Act; (b) the term “business day” means any day other than a day on which banks are permitted or required to be closed in New York City or Seoul, Korea; (c) the term “subsidiary” means the companies listed in Schedule 3; and (d) the term “LIBOR” means, for U.S. dollar deposits for a period of six (6) months, or such other period to be determined by the Representative and the Company if such rate is not available, that appears on the screen display designated as “Page 3750” on the Telerate Service (or such other screen display or service as may replace it for the purpose of displaying British Bankers’ Association LIBOR rates for U.S. dollar deposits in the London interbank market) at or about 11:00 a.m. London time on the Closing Date or the Additional Closing Date, as the case may be.

Each of the Company and the Selling Shareholders hereby irrevocably (i) agrees that any legal suit, action or proceeding arising out of or based upon this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby may be instituted in any state or federal court located in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York (each, a “New York Court”), (ii) waives, 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 proceeding and (iii) submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of such courts in any such suit, action or proceeding.

Such appointment shall be irrevocable. Each of the Company and the Selling Shareholders represents and warrants that the Authorized Agent has agreed to act as such agent for service of process and agrees to take any and all action, including the filing of any and all documents and instruments, that may be necessary to continue such appointment in full force and effect as aforesaid; provided that if for any reason the Authorized Agent named above ceases to act as Authorized Agent hereunder for the Company or any of the Selling Shareholders, the Company or such Selling Shareholder will appoint another person acceptable to the Representative in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York and the State of New York, as Authorized Agent. Service of process upon the Authorized Agent and written notice of such service to the Company or the Selling Shareholders shall be deemed, in every respect, effective service of process on the Company or the Selling Shareholders, as applicable.

(g) Judgment Currency. In respect of any judgment or order given or made for any amount due hereunder that is expressed and paid in a currency (the “judgment currency”) other than United States dollars, the Company and the Selling Shareholders will indemnify each Underwriter against any loss incurred by such Underwriter as a result of any variation as between (i) the rate of exchange at which the United States dollar amount is converted into the judgment currency for the purpose of such judgment or order and (ii) the rate of exchange at which an Underwriter is able to purchase United States dollars with the amount of the judgment currency actually received by such Underwriter. The foregoing indemnity shall constitute separate and independent obligations of the Company and the Selling Shareholders and shall continue in full force and effect notwithstanding any judgment or order as aforesaid. The term “rate of exchange” shall include any premiums and costs of exchange payable in connection with the purchase of, or conversion into, United States dollars.

(h) Headings. The headings herein are included for convenience of reference only and are not intended to be part of, or to affect the meaning or interpretation of, this Agreement.

Re:		PIXELPLUS CO., LTD.—Public Offering

Ladies and Gentlemen:

The undersigned understands that you, as Representative of the several Underwriters named in Schedule 1 to the Underwriting Agreement (the “Underwriters”), propose to enter into an Underwriting Agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with Pixelplus Co., Ltd., a company incorporated in the Republic of Korea (the “Company”), in connection with the public offering (the “Public Offering”) of American Depositary Shares representing the right to receive common shares of the Company (the “Securities”). Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meanings set forth in the Underwriting Agreement.

In consideration of the Underwriters’ agreement to purchase and make the Public Offering of the Securities, and for other good and valuable consideration receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the undersigned hereby agrees that, without the prior written consent of Xxxxxxxxx & Company, Inc. on behalf of the Underwriters, the undersigned will not, for a period of 180 days after the date of the prospectus relating to the Public Offering (the “Lock-up Period”), (i) offer, pledge, announce the intention to sell, sell, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any option, right or warrant to purchase, or otherwise transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, any (x) common shares, par value W500 per share of the Company (the “Common Shares”) or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Common Shares (including, without limitation, Common Shares which may be deemed to be beneficially owned by the undersigned in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and securities which may be issued upon exercise of a stock option or warrant) or (y) depositary receipts evidencing shares of Common Shares or securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Common Shares (or the right to receive such shares or securities) (collectively, the “Lock-Up Securities”), or (ii) enter into any swap or other agreement that transfers, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of the Lock-Up Securities, whether any such transaction described in clause (i) or (ii) above is to be settled by delivery of Common Shares or such other securities, in cash or otherwise, in each case other than any sale or transfer of Lock-Up Securities to an affiliate of the undersigned, provided that such affiliate of the undersigned shall agree to be bound in writing by the terms of the restrictions in this Agreement with respect to the Lock-Up Securities during the remainder of the 180-day period. In addition, the undersigned agrees that, without the prior written consent of Xxxxxxxxx & Company, Inc. on behalf of the Underwriters, it will not, during the Lock-up Period, make any demand for or exercise any right with respect to the registration of any Common Shares or any security convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Common Shares. The foregoing restriction is expressly agreed to preclude the undersigned from engaging in any hedging or other transaction which is designed to or which reasonably could be expected to lead to or result in a sale or disposition of the Lock-Up Securities, even if such Lock-Up Securities would be disposed of by someone other than the undersigned. Such prohibited hedging or other transactions would include, without limitation, any short sale or any purchase, sale or grant of any right (including without limitation any put or call option) with respect to any of the Lock-Up Securities or with respect to any security that includes, relates to, or derives any significant part of its value from such securities.

Exhibit-A-1

Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, in the event that the Company intends to publish or make a public announcement of its earnings (i) within 15 days prior to the expiration of the Lock-up Period, the Lock-up Period shall be automatically extended to expire on the 17^th day after such publication or public announcement of earnings; or (ii) within 15 days after the expiration of the Lock-up Period, the Company shall notify Xxxxxxxxx & Company, Inc. no later than 17 days before the scheduled date of the earnings publication or public announcement and the Lock-up Period shall be automatically reduced to expire on the 16^th day before the proposed publication or public announcement date.

In furtherance of the foregoing, the Company, and any duly appointed transfer agent for the registration or transfer of the securities described herein, are hereby authorized to decline to make any transfer of securities if such transfer would constitute a violation or breach of this Letter Agreement.

The undersigned hereby represents and warrants that the undersigned has full power and authority to enter into this Letter Agreement. All authority herein conferred or agreed to be conferred and any obligations of the undersigned shall be binding upon the successors, assigns, heirs or personal representatives of the undersigned.

The undersigned and the Representative agree that, if the Underwriting Agreement does not become effective, or if the Underwriting Agreement (other than the provisions thereof which survive termination) shall terminate for any reason whatsoever or be terminated prior to payment for and delivery of the American Depositary Shares to be sold thereunder, this Letter Agreement shall be of no force or effect and all obligations hereunder shall terminate.

Exhibit-A-2

The undersigned understands that the Underwriters are entering into the Underwriting Agreement and proceeding with the Public Offering in reliance upon this Letter Agreement.

This lock-up agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without regard to the conflict of laws principles thereof.
