<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">All three of our independent directors elected at our last annual
stockholders meeting held on June 10, 2015 resigned. On August&nbsp;4, 2015, Bruce A. Quinnell tendered his resignation as Lead
Independent Director and Chairman of the Compliance, Governance and Nominating Committee to the Board of Directors of DGSE and
the other committees of the Board on which he served. On August&nbsp;6, 2015, Dennis A. McGill tendered his resignation as a member
of the Board of Directors of DGSE and Chairman of the Audit Committee to the Board of Directors of DGSE and the other committees
of the Board on which he served. On September&nbsp;4, 2015, David S. Rector tendered his resignation as a member of the Board and
Chairman of the Compensation Committee to the Board and the other committees of the Board on which he served. The resignation of
all three of our independent directors caused us to be temporarily out of compliance with the continued listing requirements of
the NYSE MKT, which require that 50% of the members of the Board are independent and that the audit committee of the Board be comprised
of at least two members, all of whom are independent. On October 9, 2015 and October 14, 2015, we elected J. Marcus Scrudder and
Douglas J. Lattner, respectively, to the Board. The NYSE MKT sent us letter on October&nbsp;15, 2015 confirming that, based on
the addition of two new independent directors, we had resolved the continued listing deficiencies and were then in compliance with
the NYSE MKT&rsquo;s continued listing standards. On January&nbsp;6, 2016, we elected Michael J. Noel to serve as a member of the
Board.</P>

has determined that current board members Douglas J. Lattner, J. Marcus Scrudder and Michael J. Noel are &ldquo;independent&rdquo;
under the standards of the SEC and the NYSE MKT. Under applicable SEC and NYSE MKT rules, the existence of certain &ldquo;related
person&rdquo; transactions above certain thresholds between a director and us are required to be disclosed and preclude a finding
by our Board that the director is independent. In addition to transactions required to be disclosed under SEC rules, our Board
considered certain other relationships in making its independence determinations, and determined in each case that such other relationships
did not impair the director&rsquo;s ability to exercise independent judgment on our behalf.</P>

following his election or until he chooses to resign from his position.</P>

                                         (as defined in the Consulting Agreement) from certain Claims (as defined in the Consulting

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">DGSE has a corporate policy governing the identification, review,
consideration and approval or ratification of transactions with related persons, as that term is defined in the Instructions to
Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K, promulgated under the Securities Act (&ldquo;Related Party&rdquo;). Under this policy, all Related
Party transactions are identified and approved prior to consummation of the transaction to ensure they are consistent with DGSE&rsquo;s
best interests and the best interests of its stockholders. Among other factors, DGSE&rsquo;s Board considers the size and duration
of the transaction, the nature and interest of the of the Related Party in the transaction, whether the transaction may involve
a conflict of interest and if the transaction is on terms that are at least as favorable to DGSE as would be available in a comparable
transaction with an unaffiliated third party. DGSE&rsquo;s Board reviews all Related Party transactions at least annually to determine
if it is in DGSE&rsquo;s best interests and the best interests of DGSE&rsquo;s stockholders to continue, modify, or terminate any
of the Related Party transactions. DGSE&rsquo;s Related Person Transaction Policy is available for review in its entirety under
the &ldquo;Investors&rdquo; menu of the Company&rsquo;s corporate relations website at www.DGSECompanies.com.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">On July&nbsp;19, 2012, the Company entered into the Loan Agreement
with NTR, pursuant to which NTR agreed to provide the Company with a guidance line of revolving credit in an amount up to $7,500,000.
The Loan Agreement anticipated termination&ndash;at which point all amounts outstanding thereunder would be due and payable&ndash;upon
the earlier of: (i)&nbsp;August 1, 2014; (ii)&nbsp;the date that is twelve months after DGSE receives notice from NTR demanding
the repayment of the Obligations; (iii)&nbsp;the date the Obligations are accelerated in accordance with the terms of the Loan
Agreement; or, (iv)&nbsp;the date on which the commitment terminates under the Loan Agreement. In connection with the Loan Agreement,
DGSE granted a security interest in the respective personal property of each of its subsidiaries. The loan carries an interest
rate of two percent (2%) per annum for all funds borrowed pursuant to the Loan Agreement. Proceeds received by DGSE pursuant to
the terms of the Loan Agreement were used for repayment of all outstanding financial obligations incurred in connection with that
certain Loan Agreement, dated as of December&nbsp;22, 2005, between DGSE and Texas Capital Bank, N.A., and additional proceeds
are expected were used as working capital in the ordinary course of business. On February 25, 2014, we entered into a one-year
extension of the Loan Agreement with NTR, extending the termination date to August 1, 2015, and on February&nbsp;4, 2015, we entered
into an additional two-year extension, extending the termination date to August 1, 2017, unless earlier terminated as described
above. All other terms of the agreement remain the same. As of December&nbsp;31, 2015 and 2014, the outstanding balance of the
NTR loan was $2,303,359. In the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2015 and 2014, the Company paid NTR $45,810 and $46,019, respectively,
in interest on the Company&rsquo;s line of credit.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">In April 2013, DGSE moved its principal corporate offices to
office space at 15850 Dallas Parkway, Suite 140, Dallas, Texas. This property is owned by an affiliate of Elemetal and also serves
as their headquarters. DGSE leases space in the building subject to a lease that expired in December 2015. The Company continues
to pay this lease on a month-to-month basis with no increase in the rent. For the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2015 and 2014, the
Company recognized rent expense of $50,500 and $52,500, respectively, related to this lease.</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">In the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2013, the Company established
a wholly owned subsidiary named Carbon Fund One, LLC to act as the general partner (the &ldquo;General Partner&rdquo;) for Carbon
Fund One, LP (the &ldquo;Fund&rdquo;), which was established at the same time. The Fund was an investment fund specializing in
the buying and selling of gemstones. The General Partner receives a one percent ownership interest of the Fund, and is paid 2%
carried interest on assets under management by the Fund, and 20% of net earnings before distributions to the limited partners.
The Fund was intended to provide an investment vehicle for individuals interested in investment opportunities in diamonds and gemstones,
and provide incremental value to the Company&rsquo;s shareholders by utilizing the Company&rsquo;s expertise, infrastructure, and
retail and wholesale customer base, to generate additional profit through earnings from its role as General Partner. Ultimately
DGSE&rsquo;s management made the decision to end its involvement in the Fund, and the General Partner has wound down the Fund&rsquo;s
activities and liquidated all remaining inventory. The Fund transacted business with the Company from time to time, including buying
gemstones from and selling gemstones to the Company. In Fiscal 2015, the Company made no sales to the Fund, had purchases of $5,665
from the Fund, and owed the Fund nothing as of December 31, 2015 in trade payables. In Fiscal 2014, the Company made sales of $37,148
to the Fund, had purchases of $152,328 from the Fund, and owed the Fund $136,755 as of December 31, 2014 in trade payables. Additionally,
in Fiscal 2015, the General Partner generated net loss of $1,334 from its role with the Fund, while in the same period of 2014,
the General Partner generated net income of $35,190. The loss in the current year was driven by low activity within the Fund, combined
with expenses related to the shutdown of the Fund.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">On April 15, 2016, the Company entered into a non-binding letter
of intent with Elemetal pursuant to which, in exchange for satisfaction of $3,500,000 of debt owed by DGSE to Elemetal as a result
of bullion-related transactions, DGSE would issue to Elemetal (a) shares of common stock at a stock price of $0.41 per share, which
based on an amount of debt exchanged of $3,500,000 would result in the issuance of 8,536,585 shares to Elemetal and (b) a one-year
option to purchase from DGSE 1,000,000 shares of common stock of DGSE at an exercise price of $0.65 per share.</P>

Agreement (the balance of which as of April&nbsp;13, 2016, including principal and interest, was $2,408,238.91), DGSE would issue
to NTR shares of common stock at a stock price of $0.41 per share, which based on the balance outstanding as of April 13, 2016,
would result in the issuance of 5,873,753 shares to NTR.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">Both letters of intent are non-binding and are subject to numerous

shareholder approval.</P>
