DEREGISTRATION OF UNSOLD SECURITIES

This Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 relates to the Registration Statement on Form S-8 (Registration No. 33-87348) filed by Creative Technology Ltd. (the “Company”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on December 13, 1994 (the “Registration Statement”) pursuant to which the Company registered an aggregate of 4,400,000 of its Ordinary Shares (the “Ordinary Shares”). The Registration Statement registered the Ordinary Shares for issuance by the Company pursuant to the Creative Technology Ltd. Employees’ Share Option Scheme.

On August 22, 2007, in connection with the voluntary delisting by the Company of its Ordinary Shares on the NASDAQ Global Market (“NASDAQ”), the Company filed a notification of removal from listing on the NASDAQ on Form 25 with the Commission. August 31, 2007 was the last day of trading of the Company’s Ordinary Shares on NASDAQ.

This Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 is being filed to terminate the Registration Statement and to deregister, as of the date hereof, all of the Ordinary Shares which remain unsold under the Registration Statement. Contemporaneously with the filing of this Post-Effective Amendment No. 1, the Company is filing with the Commission a certification of a foreign private issuer’s termination of registration of a class of securities under section 12(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, on Form 15F.
