M. Peakes tendered his resignation as Chairman of the Board, President and Chief Executive Officer effective as of December 10,
2016. On December 12, 2016, John R. Loftus was elected to the position of the Chairman of the Board, President and Chief Executive
Officer and as a member of the Board of Directors</FONT>.</P>

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

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0">All three of our independent directors elected at our annual stockholders
meeting held on December 7, 2016 resigned. On January&nbsp;12, 2017, J. Marcus Scrudder tendered his resignation as Lead Independent
Director 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 January&nbsp;12, 2017, Michael J. Noel tendered his resignation as a member of the Board of Directors of DGSE 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 January&nbsp;12, 2017, Douglas J. Lattner 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 January 17 and January 18, 2017, we elected new independent directors
Joel S. Friedman, Alexandra C. Griffin, and Jim R. Ruth to the Board.</P>

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

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0">Our Board is currently composed of five directors. Our Board has
determined that current board members Joel S. Friedman, Alexandra C. Griffin, and Jim R. Ruth 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>

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

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0">Our directors are elected at an annual meeting of our shareholders
by the holders of shares entitled to vote in the election of directors, except in the case of vacancy, which can be filled by an
affirmative vote of a majority of the remaining directors. Each director is elected to serve until the annual meeting of shareholders
following his or her election or until he or she chooses to resign from his position.</P>

of the Exchange Act, consisting of all three independent directors of our Board, was chaired by J. Marcus Scrudder during Fiscal
2016, who was also an &ldquo;audit committee financial expert,&rdquo; as that term is defined in Item 407(d)(5)(ii) of Regulation
S-K, promulgated under the Securities Act. Mr. Scrudder was &ldquo;independent,&rdquo; as defined by the listing standards of the
Exchange during Fiscal 2016 and following his resignation on January 12, 2017, Alexandra C. Griffin was elected to fill his seat.
Ms. Griffin is an &ldquo;audit committee financial expert&rdquo;, as the term is defined by the listing standards of the Exchange.
The other members of the Audit Committee during Fiscal 2016 were Douglas J. Lattner and Michael J. Noel and upon their resignations
on January 12, 2017, Joel S. Friedman and Jim R. Ruth filled their vacancies. The Audit Committee is primarily tasked with overseeing
our financial reporting process, evaluation of independent auditors and, where appropriate, exercising its duty to replace our
independent auditors. Management is responsible for preparing our financial statements, and the independent auditors are responsible
for auditing those financial statements. During Fiscal 2016, the Audit Committee met five times in person or telephonically.</P>

and, as appropriate, to the Board or the relevant committee of our Board of Directors; (iii) implement appropriate and responsive
risk management strategies consistent with our risk profile; and, (iv) integrate risk management into decision-making. Our Board
is tasked with overseeing risk oversight, and periodically meets with management and advisors regarding the adequacy and effectiveness
of our risk management processes and to analyze the most likely areas of future risk for us. In addition to the formal compliance
program, our Board encourages management to promote a corporate culture that incorporates risk management into our corporate strategy

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; background-color: white">Our Board is responsible for establishing
and administering our executive compensation and employee benefit programs in the context of our overall goals and objectives.
This Board&rsquo;s duty has been delegated to the Compensation Committee of our Board of Directors (the &ldquo;Compensation Committee&rdquo;)
in accordance with the Compensation Committee&rsquo;s Charter. The Compensation Committee reviews the executive compensation program
at least annually and approves appropriate modifications to executive officer compensation, including specific amounts and types
of compensation. The Compensation Committee is responsible for establishing the compensation of the CEO and CFO. The Compensation
Committee establishes the annual compensation of the non-employee directors and oversees our equity compensation plans, including
the administration of our stock-based compensation plans.</P>

are to: (i) provide a competitive, comprehensive compensation package to attract, retain and motivate highly talented personnel
at all levels of our organization; and, (ii) provide incentives and rewards for implementing and accomplishing our short-term and
long-term strategic and operational goals and objectives. Therefore, we strive to structure compensation packages that are competitive
within the industry, while maintaining and promoting our interests, as well as the interests of our shareholders.</P>

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

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0">In February 2015, as part of a set of corporate governance reforms
that the Board implemented, the Compensation Committee recommended and the Board approved an Executive Compensation Policy. As
part of this policy the Compensation Committee is required to retain an independent compensation consultant at least once every
three years to review the Company&rsquo;s compensation philosophy and plan to ensure that the criteria, factors, and policies and
procedures for determining compensation comport with current best practices. Such consultant shall make recommendations to the
Compensation Committee and/or the entire Board regarding any appropriate actions to better align executive and director compensation
with shareholder interests and long-term value creation. Accordingly, in 2016, the Compensation Committee retained an independent
compensation consultant, Paradox Compensation Advisors (&ldquo;Paradox&rdquo;), to analyze our executive compensation program as
compared to our peers. Paradox also advised the Compensation Committee regarding appropriate elements of a competitive executive
compensation structure, including fixed and at-risk elements, short-term and long-term incentives, and cash and equity components.
Paradox reported the results of its analysis of our total executive compensation packages for positions held by members of our
executive leadership team, as well as specific components of these packages, as compared to executives holding similar positions
as similar-sized companies and/or labor market peers in related industries.</P>

the adoption of the 2004 Stock Option Plan (the &ldquo;2004 Plan&rdquo;) which reserved 1,700,000&nbsp;shares of our Common Stock
for issuance upon exercise of options to purchase our Common Stock. We granted options to purchase an aggregate of 1,459,634<B>
</B>shares of our Common Stock under the 2004 Plan to certain of our officers, directors, key employees and certain other individuals
who provided us with goods and services. Each option vested on either January 1, 2004 or immediately upon issuance thereafter.
The exercise price of each option issued pursuant to the 2004 Plan is equal to the market value of our Common Stock on the date
of grant, as determined by the closing bid price for our Common Stock on the Exchange on the date of grant or, if no trading occurred
on the date of grant, on the last day prior to the date of grant on which our securities were listed and traded on the Exchange.
Of the options issued under the 2004 Plan, as of December&nbsp;31, 2016, 845,634 have been exercised, 599,000 have expired, and
15,000 remain outstanding. No further issuances can be made pursuant to the 2004 Plan.</P>

one-fourth (or 18,750), and for Mr. Lopez, one-fourth (or 12,500) of the RSUs were to vest ratably in equal annual installments
over a four year period beginning on April 27, 2017, subject to a continued status as an employee on each such date and other terms

Common Stock, par value $0.01, without additional consideration. Upon termination of service of the employee, other than by death
or disability, any RSUs that have not vested will be forfeited and the award of such units shall terminate. As a result of his
resignation effective August 15, 2016, 50,000 RSUs awarded to Mr. Lopez were forfeited. In addition to the RSU grant above for
Matthew Peakes and Nabil Lopez, the compensation committee granted an additional 75,000 and 50,000, respectively, performance based
RSUs to the executives that were to vest ratably over a four year period beginning April 27, 2017 if certain financial performance
criteria are achieved. As a result of his resignation effective August 15, 2016, 50,000 RSUs awarded to Mr. Lopez were forfeited.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-indent: 0.5in">Through a series of transactions beginning in
2010, NTR Metals, LLC (&ldquo;NTR&rdquo;) became the largest shareholder of our common stock, par value $0.01 per share (&ldquo;Common
Stock&rdquo;). In April 2012, NTR announced its merger with OPM, the largest American-owned refiner of &ldquo;good delivery&rdquo;
gold and silver. The combined company was originally called Global Metals Holdings, LLC, and has since been rechristened as Elemetal.
In January 2013, NTR announced it would contribute 4,393,142 of its shares of our Common Stock to Elemetal, in exchange for ownership
units in Elemetal. NTR also agreed to contribute its option to buy 5,000,000 additional shares of DGSE Common Stock at $15 a share,
which expired unexercised on October 25, 2016. On December 9, 2016, DGSE and NTR closed the transactions contemplated by the Stock
Purchase Agreement dated June 20, 2016 (the &ldquo;Elemetal Agreement&rdquo;) whereby DGSE issued NTR 5,948,560 shares of Common
Stock for $0.41 per share in exchange for the cancellation and forgiveness of indebtedness under a Loan Agreement dated July 19,
2012 and an associated Revolving Credit Note (which indebtedness and accrued interest was $2,438,909). Also on the same date and
pursuant to the Elemetal Agreement, DGSE issued Elemetal 8,536,585 shares of its Common Stock for $0.41 per share and a warrant
to purchase an additional 1,000,000 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $0.65 per share, exercisable within two years
after December 9, 2016, in exchange for the cancellation and forgiveness of $3,500,000 of trade payables owed to Elemetal as a
result of bullion-related transactions. Following these stock issuances Elemetal owns 12,814,727 shares of Common Stock (47.7%)
(excluding shares that may be purchased upon exercise of the warrant) and NTR owns 6,365,460 shares of Common Stock (23.7%).</P>

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

25% of sales and 27% of purchases were transactions with Elemetal, and in the same period of Fiscal 2015, these transactions represented

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-indent: 0.5in">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 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. On December 9, 2016, DGSE and NTR closed
the transactions contemplated by the Elemetal Agreement whereby DGSE issued NTR 5,948,560 shares of common stock in exchange for
the cancellation and forgiveness of the loan principal and accrued interest totaling $2,438,909. As of December&nbsp;31, 2016 and
2015, the outstanding balance of the NTR loan was $0 and $2,303,359 respectively. In the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2016 and
2015, the Company paid NTR $43,723 and $45,810, respectively, in interest on the Company&rsquo;s line of credit.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-indent: 0.5in">In April 2013, DGSE moved its principal corporate
offices to 15850 Dallas Parkway, Suite 140, Dallas, Texas. This property is owned by an affiliate of Elemetal and also serves as
their headquarters. DGSE leased space in the building subject to a lease that expired in December 2015. The Company continued to
pay this lease on a month-to-month basis with no increase in the rent until our new Midtown retail location was completed in December
2016. The Midtown location is large enough to facilitate the retail space and our corporate offices. For the year ended December&nbsp;31,
2016 and 2015, the Company recognized rent expense of $90,000 and $50,500, respectively, related to this lease.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-indent: 0.5in">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 2016, the Company made no sales to the Fund, had no purchases from
the Fund, and owed the Fund nothing as of December 31, 2016 in trade payables. 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. Additionally,
in Fiscal 2016, the General Partner generated no loss from its role with the Fund, while in the same period of 2015, the General
Partner generated net loss of $1,334. The loss in 2015 was driven by low activity within the Fund, combined with expenses related

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-indent: 0.5in">On April 19, 2017, DGSE entered into a non-binding
letter of intent with Elemetal and Elemetal Recycling, LLC (&ldquo;Recycling&rdquo;) and together with Elemetal, (&ldquo;Sellers&rdquo;)
to purchase and acquire Sellers&rsquo; interest in and to the tangible personal property assets, including inventory, located at
2101 W. Belt Line Road, Carrollton, Texas (the &ldquo;Belt Line Location&rdquo;) and certain equipment located at 10707 Composite
Drive, Dallas, Texas, and the accounts receivables of Recycling arising from the conduct by Recycling of its business at the Belt
Line Location. In consideration for the assets, DGSE would pay Sellers $ 16,000,000 in cash along with paying the Sellers approximately
$3,800,000 owed by DGSE, or any of its subsidiaries, as a result of bullion-related transactions. Thus the cash purchase price
along with paying the bullion-related obligation is expected to be approximately $19,000,000. DGSE would also accept an assignment
from Sellers of their rights and obligations under their existing lease for the Belt Line Location and would assume the accounts
payables and other liabilities of Recycling arising from the conduct of business at the Belt Line Location. The letter of intent
is non-binding and is subject to numerous conditions, including negotiation and execution of a definitive agreement, approval of
the Boards of the parties and approval of Elemetal&rsquo;s members. No assurance can be made that DGSE will be able to negotiate
a mutually satisfactory definitive agreement with Sellers or that the contemplated approval will be obtained.</P>
