BACKGROUND OF THIS PROXY SOLICITATION

The following is a chronology of events leading up to this proxy solicitation.

During the first few months of 2018, Mr. Joseph Sanders discussed with Mr. Feigenbaum the possibility of serving on the Board of DSS. Subsequently, Mr. Sanders recommended Mr. Feigenbaum to Mr. Heng Fai Ambrose Chan, the Company’s Chairman, as a potential director candidate.

On or about July 2018, Mr. Feigenbaum held conversations with Mr. Chan, the Company’s Chairman, regarding Mr. Feigenbaum joining the Board of DSS or, alternatively, serving as a consultant to the Company.

On July 24, 2018, Mr. Feigenbaum returned a completed Directors and Executive Officers questionnaire to DSS’s general counsel at the time (Jeffrey D’Angelo), yet Mr. Feigenbaum was ultimately not appointed to the Board. Nevertheless, contacts continued into early August through subsequent telephone conversations with Mr. Chan. Ultimately, on or about August 2018, Mr. Feigenbaum declined an invitation to join the Company as a consultant.

On or about August 9-11 2018, Mr. Chan and Mr. Feigenbaum communicated by text message regarding other ventures operated by Mr. Chan and ideas to increase their value. Mr. Chan discussed with Mr. Feigenbaum the possibility of Mr. Feigenbaum becoming involved with other ventures of Mr. Chan unrelated to the Company. Following this exchange, Mr. Feigenbaum determined not to pursue involvement with any other Mr. Chan’s other ventures.

On or about early May 2019, Mr. Feigenbaum and Mr. Chan discussed possible avenues as to increase shareholder value. In these discussions, Mr. Feigenbaum made some concrete proposals to Mr. Chan. Mr. Sanders was present at these meetings. Mr. Feigenbaum discussed with Mr. Chan the need for the Company to be more pro-active in raising awareness of the Company in the market. Mr. Feigenbaum told Mr. Chan that the Company was not sufficiently proactive in initiating meetings with market participants and gaining appropriate market coverage of the Company. In addition, Mr. Feigenbaum recommended to Mr. Chan that management needed to undertake a thorough analysis of the various lines of business that it is involved in and to identify and focus on the more promising lines of business. Thereafter, there was no further contact between Mr. Feigenbaum and Mr. Chan.

Seeing the significant opportunities for DSS, Mr. Feigenbaum subsequently sought out significant minority stockholders of DSS, such as Dr. Athwal and Dr. Mirman in an effort to seek to replace the Board of DSS with a Board that would align itself with the interests of all of the Company’s stockholders.

On October 24, 2019, Dr. Athwal delivered by electronic-mail a written demand of the Company, after the required five day notice period, to examine certain records related to the purpose of the Concerned Shareholders’ solicitation, to communicate with the Company’s stockholders in connection with the election of directors at the Annual Meeting, as well as of the Concerned Shareholders’ intention to nominate individuals for election as an alternative slate to the nominees recommended by the Board.

On October 25, 2019, the Company filed a Current Report on Form 8-K with the SEC to announce that the Annual Meeting would be held on December 9, 2019, at a time and location to be determined, and that any notices to nominate candidates for election as directors at the Annual Meeting must be delivered to the principal executive offices of the Company, at 200 Canal View Boulevard, Suite 300, Rochester, NY 14623, by November 4, 2019.

On October 28, 2019, in accordance with the Company’s By-Laws, Dr. Athwal requested a directors and officers questionnaire and form of written representation and agreement which nominees are required to deliver in order for the Board and its Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee to properly consider them.

On October 30, 2019, we issued a press release, including a letter to fellow shareholders of DSS, which was filed on Form DFAN14 with the SEC.

On October 31, 2019, the Company provided the directors’ and officers’ questionnaire and written representation and agreement.

On November 1, we filed a Schedule 13D with the SEC to report ownership of approximately 1,671,462 shares of issued and outstanding common stock of the Company, which at the time was approximately 5.6% of the outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock.

On November 1, 2019, the Company announced that it had sold 6,000,000 shares to its chairman and largest shareholder, in a private placement transaction (the “Private Placement”) which closed immediately and increased his beneficial ownership to 31.77% of the Company’s issued and outstanding voting shares.

On November 4, 2019, we issued a press release, including a letter to fellow shareholders of DSS, which was filed a Form DFAN14A with the SEC on November 5, 2019, regarding the Private Placement and questioning the timing and need for the issuance of shares.

On November 4, 2019, Dr, Athwal submitted to the Company our notice of nomination of directors.

On November 4, 2019, the Company filed a preliminary proxy statement with the SEC.

On November 5, 2019, we filed a preliminary proxy statement with the SEC.

On November 6, 2019, after not having received a response to the first notice provided on October 24, 2019, we provided a second notice of Dr. Athwal’s written demand to receive copies of information regarding the Company’s shareholders.

On November 8, 2019, we were informed by the Company that the Company had made available to them the proper records at the Company’s offices in Rochester, NY.

On November 12, 2019, the Company filed an amended preliminary proxy statement with the SEC.

On November 12, 2019, we filed this amended preliminary proxy statement with the SEC.

REASONS FOR THE SOLICITATION

We believe that DSS has the potential to unlock significant value for all of its stockholders. However, to realize its potential, DSS needs a Board and a senior management team with proven operational experience. We are here to communicate our vision on what can be accomplished and the tremendous opportunity that is in front of stockholders.

Poor Operational Performance: We believe that as a consequence of poor operational execution, DSS’ share price has declined 67% since October 2018 and has undergone an overall decline of 85% over the last five years1. We believe that the Company needs to address the factors contributing to this consistent underperformance.

Accordingly, we constructed a slate of director candidates that have diverse and complementary skill sets and the experience spanning the areas of operations, manufacturing, financial, technology, marketing, banking, risk management that, in the aggregate, possess the expertise gravely needed at DSS. Our director nominees will be prepared to drive DSS forward and act solely in the best interests of all stockholders. We believe this level of change is appropriate in light of the dismal operational results and substantial shareholder value destruction DSS has experienced over the past several years.

Dilution of Stockholder Value. In June 2019, management closed on a registered stock offering at a price per share of less than 50% of the then market price of DSS shares. Mr. Chan, the Chairman of the Board of Directors of DSS, purchased approximately 10% of the offering at this deeply discounted price. As of May 31, 2019, the stock price closed at $1.00 and on June 6, 2019, following the disclosure of the registered offering at per share price of $0.50, the DSS stock closed at approximately $0.46 per share. Since then, the stock price has only declined and recently hit an all-time low closing price of under $0.30 per share.

Additionally, on November 1, 2019, the Board approved a private placement to Mr. Chan, the Chairman of the Board, of six (6) million shares of Common Stock at a premium to a very low share price. The private placement was made despite management’s assessment, in its quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2019, which was issued in August 2019 following the above referenced registered offering, that it had enough cash resources through 2020. We quote verbatim management’s representation to this effect:

“We believe that our $5.7 million in aggregate cash and equivalents and restricted cash as of June 30, 2019 will allow us to fund our current and planned operations through 2020. However, we may seek additional capital through the sale of debt or equity securities, if necessary, especially in conjunction with opportunistic acquisitions or licensing arrangements. Based on this, we have concluded that substantial doubt of our ability to continue as a going concern has been alleviated.”

To paraphrase, management and the Board approved a private placement of nearly 20% of the Company’s outstanding stock to Mr. Chan, the Company’s chairman, at a nominal premium to a per share price of approximately $0.27 when there was no operational need for this capital raise, based on Management’s statements. Furthermore, the closing of the private placement on November 1, 2019, one business day before the scheduled record date of November 4 for this Annual Meeting, is troubling.

We also note the DSS Board’s apparent abdication of its fiduciary duty to DSS and lack of concern for the perception of DSS in the public market in approving the issuance of these shares while DSS is in a “Blackout Period” in the weeks preceding its required filing of DSS’ third quarter report on Form 10-Q due by November 14, 2019. With the value of the shares on the market not reflecting the results of the third quarter, but with the Company and Mr. Chan each being aware of those results, the price per share paid by Mr. Chan and the premium are not meaningful. While the issuance at this time may be consistent with applicable securities law, we believe that it certainly does not comply with good corporate governance practice for a publicly traded company.

6

Absence of Appropriate Corporate Governance and Controls: The approval by the Board of the private placements noted above is deeply troubling to us as it reflects, we believe, an insufficient regard by the Board of the interests of DSS and, by its extension, to the DSS shareholders generally.

Equally troubling is the resignation in the past few months of six independent directors, two of whom were appointed only in May 2019.

THERE IS A BETTER WAY FORWARD

Our Nominees Possess the Qualifications and Experience We Believe Is Necessary to Maximize Stockholder Value and Realize the Company’s True Potential

We have nominated a slate of seven (7) highly qualified director candidates for election to the Board at the Annual Meeting. The Nominees were carefully selected for their extensive skill sets in areas directly relevant to DSS’ business, its current challenges, and importantly, its opportunities for growth. The Nominees collectively bring decades of experience, financial acumen, leadership skills, and a strong commitment to represent the best interests of all stockholders.

We believe that a newly elected slate of directors who are not appointed or supported by existing management and the Company’s major stockholder can take a fresh look at the Company’s many questionable transactions with related parties that have been consistently approved by the Company’s Audit Committee and Board and ensure that the Company acts in the best interests of all of the Company’s stockholders.

We believe that the Company has several poorly performing lines of business that are costly to the overall business of the Company, in particular considering the Company’s relatively low market cap. These lines of business have insignificant sales or growth potential but draw relatively large and unjustified investment of resources and do not directly connect to the Company’s core businesses. In order to turn around the Company’s business and make the Company profitable, we believe that a thorough review of all the Company’s disparate lines of business is required to identify the more promising lines of business that have the best growth opportunities and on which management can focus. This will invariably require selling off or closing the less promising assets/or lines of business and focusing on the ones that have greater potential.

We believe that a corporate restructuring of non-essential and non-profitable businesses and focusing on the existing promising lines as well as considering leveraging asset sales to explore new business possibilities is necessary in order to create the conditions needed for a turn around.. Our board candidates include experienced executives, financial professionals and technology experts who are able to collectively analyze and make a determination regarding these matters.

PROPOSAL ONE

ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

The Board is currently composed of eight (8) directors of whom seven (7) are standing for reelection, each with terms expiring at the Company’s next annual meeting. We are seeking your support at the Annual Meeting to elect our slate of seven (7) Nominees in opposition to the Company’s director nominees. Your vote to elect our Nominees will have the legal effect of replacing the incumbent directors with the Nominees.

The following information sets forth the name, age, business address, present principal occupation, and employment and material occupations, positions, offices, or employments for the past five (5) years of each of the Nominees.

PROPOSAL TWO

RATIFICATION OF THE APPOINTMENT OF FREED MAXICK CPAs, P.C. AS THE COMPANY’S INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM FOR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDING DECEMBER 31, 2019

As discussed in further detail in the Company’s proxy statement, the Board has appointed Freed Maxick CPAs, P.C as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2019, and stockholders are being asked to ratify such appointment at the Annual Meeting.

10

As disclosed in the Company’s proxy statement, to ratify the appointment of Freed Maxick CPAs, P.C to be the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the year ending December 31, 2019, the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast at the Annual Meeting on this proposal is required.

WE MAKE NO RECOMMENDATION WITH RESPECT TO THIS PROPOSAL AND INTEND TO VOTE OUR SHARES “FOR” THIS PROPOSAL.

PROPOSAL THREE

APPROVAL OF THE COMPANY’S 2020 EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN

As discussed in further detail in the Company’s proxy statement, the Board has approved the Company’s 2020 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2020 Incentive Plan”), subject to shareholder approval.

As disclosed in the Company’s proxy statement, to ratify the 2020 Incentive Plan, the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast at the Annual Meeting on this proposal is required.

WE MAKE NO RECOMMENDATION WITH RESPECT TO THIS PROPOSAL AND INTEND TO VOTE OUR SHARES “AGAINST” THIS PROPOSAL.

PROPOSAL FOUR

ADVISORY VOTE ON THE COMPENSATION OF THE COMPANY’S NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICERS

As discussed in further detail in the Company’s proxy statement, in accordance with the requirements of Section 14A of the Exchange Act and the related rules of the SEC, the Company is providing stockholders with the opportunity to cast an annual advisory vote to approve the compensation of its named executive officers as disclosed pursuant to the SEC’s compensation disclosure rules (a “say-on-pay proposal”). Accordingly, the Company is asking stockholders to vote for the following resolution:

“RESOLVED, that the stockholders of Document Security Systems, Inc. approve all of the compensation of the Company’s executive officers who are named in the Summary Compensation Table of the Company’s 2019 Proxy Statement, as such compensation is disclosed in the Company’s 2019 Proxy Statement pursuant to Item 402 of Regulation S-K, which disclosure includes the Proxy Statement’s Summary Compensation Table and other executive compensation tables and related narrative disclosures..”

According to the Company’s proxy statement, this vote is advisory and therefore not binding on the Company, the Compensation and Management Resources Committee or the Board. The Company has further disclosed that the Board and the Compensation and Management Resources Committee value the opinions expressed by stockholders in their votes on this proposal and will consider the outcome of the vote when making future compensation decisions regarding named executive officers.

WE MAKE NO RECOMMENDATION WITH RESPECT TO THIS PROPOSAL AND INTEND TO VOTE OUR SHARES “AGAINST” THIS PROPOSAL.

11

PROPOSAL FIVE

ADVISORY VOTE ON FREQUENCY OF SAY-ON-PAY VOTES

As discussed in further detail in the Company’s proxy statement, the Company is providing stockholders with the opportunity to cast an advisory vote on how often the Company should include a say-on-pay proposal in its proxy materials for future annual stockholder meetings or any special stockholder meeting for which it must include executive compensation information in the proxy statement for that meeting (a “say-on-pay frequency proposal”). Under this Proposal Five, stockholders may vote to have the say-on-pay vote every year, every two years, or every three years.

The Company has disclosed in its proxy statement, that as an advisory vote, this proposal is not binding on the Company or the Board. However, the Board values the opinions expressed by stockholders in their votes on this proposal and will consider the outcome of the vote when making future decisions regarding the frequency of conducting a say-on-pay vote.

As disclosed in the Company’s proxy statement, a plurality of the votes cast for Proposal No. 3 will determine the stockholders’ preferred frequency for holding an advisory vote on executive compensation. This means that the option for holding an advisory vote every 1 year, 2 years, or 3 years receiving the greatest number of votes will be considered the preferred frequency of the stockholders.

We believe that conducting the advisory vote on executive compensation every year is appropriate for the Company because it provides stockholders the opportunity to provide frequent feedback on the Company’s overall compensation philosophy, design and implementation.

WE RECOMMEND A VOTE FOR “1 YEAR” ON THE ADVISORY VOTE ON THE FREQUENCY OF THE EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION VOTE AND INTEND TO VOTE OUR SHARES FOR “1 YEAR” ON THIS PROPOSAL.

VOTING AND PROXY PROCEDURES

Only stockholders of record on the Record Date will be entitled to notice of and to vote at the Annual Meeting. Stockholders who sell shares of Common Stock before the Record Date (or acquire them without voting rights after the Record Date) may not vote such shares of Common Stock. Stockholders of record on the Record Date will retain their voting rights in connection with the Annual Meeting even if they sell such shares of Common Stock after the Record Date. Based on publicly available information, we believe that the only outstanding class of securities of the Company entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting is the shares of Common Stock.

12

Shares of Common Stock represented by properly executed BLUE proxy cards will be voted at the Annual Meeting as marked and, in the absence of specific instructions, will be voted FOR the election of the Nominees to the Board, FOR the appointment of Freed Maxick CPAs, P.C. as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2019. AGAINST the approval of the 2020 Incentive Plan, AGAINST the advisory vote on executive compensation and 1 YEAR on the advisory vote on the frequency of holding future advisory votes on executive compensation.

According to the Company’s proxy statement for the Annual Meeting, the current Board intends to nominate seven (7) candidates for election as directors at the Annual Meeting. This Proxy Statement is soliciting proxies to elect only our Nominees. Accordingly, the enclosed BLUE proxy card may only be voted for the Nominees and does not confer voting power with respect to the Company’s nominees.

QUORUM; BROKER NON-VOTES; DISCRETIONARY VOTING

A quorum is the minimum number of shares of Common Stock that must be represented at a duly called meeting in person or by proxy in order to legally conduct business at the meeting. The presence, in person or by proxy (regardless of whether the proxy has authority to vote on all matters), of the holders of not less than fifty percent (50%) of the shares entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting will constitute a quorum for the transaction of business.

Abstentions are counted as present and entitled to vote for purposes of determining a quorum. Shares represented by “broker non-votes” also are counted as present and entitled to vote for purposes of determining a quorum. However, if you hold your shares in street name and do not provide voting instructions to your broker, your shares will not be voted on any proposal on which your broker does not have discretionary authority to vote (a “broker non-vote”). Under applicable rules, your broker will not have discretionary authority to vote your shares at the Annual Meeting on any of the proposals.

If you are a stockholder of record, you must deliver your vote by mail or attend the Annual Meeting in person and vote in order to be counted in the determination of a quorum.

If you are a beneficial owner, your broker will vote your shares pursuant to your instructions, and those shares will count in the determination of a quorum. Brokers do not have discretionary authority to vote on any of the proposals at the Annual Meeting. Accordingly, unless you vote via proxy card or provide instructions to your broker, your shares of Common Stock will count for purposes of attaining a quorum, but will not be voted on those proposals.

REQUIRED FOR APPROVAL

Proposal One: Election of Directors ─ The Company has adopted a plurality vote standard for contested director elections. As a result of our nomination of the Nominees, the director election at the Annual Meeting will be contested, so the seven (7) nominees for director receiving the highest vote totals will be elected as directors of the Company. With respect to the election of directors, only votes cast “FOR” a nominee will be counted. Proxy cards specifying that votes should be withheld with respect to one or more nominees will result in those nominees receiving fewer votes but will not count as a vote against the nominees, and therefore, a “WITHHOLD” vote will have no effect on the outcome of the election of directors. Neither an abstention nor a broker non-vote will count as a vote cast “FOR” or “AGAINST” a director nominee. Therefore, abstentions and broker non-votes will have no direct effect on the outcome of the election of directors.

Proposal Two: Ratification of the Appointment of Accounting Firm ─ According to the Company’s proxy statement, assuming that a quorum is present, the ratification of Freed Maxick CPAs, P.C. as the Company’s Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast at the Annual Meeting. The Company has indicated that abstentions and broker non-votes will have no effect on this proposal.

Proposal Three: Approval of the 2020 Incentive Plan ─ According to the Company’s proxy statement, assuming that a quorum is present, the approval of the 2020 Incentive Plan requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast at the Annual Meeting. The Company has indicated that abstentions and broker non-votes will have no effect on this proposal.

Proposal Four: Advisory Vote on Executive Compensation ─ According to the Company’s proxy statement, although the vote is non-binding, assuming that a quorum is present, the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast is required to approve the advisory vote on the Company’s executive compensation. The Company has indicated that abstentions and broker non-votes will have no effect on the proposal.

Proposal Five: Advisory Vote on the Frequency of Holding Future Advisory Votes on Executive Compensation ─ According to the Company’s proxy statement, although the vote is non-binding, assuming that a quorum is present, the advisory vote on the frequency of the advisory vote on executive compensation will be determined by a plurality of the votes cast. Stockholders may vote “1 YEAR,” “2 YEARS,” “3 YEARS” or “ABSTAIN” with respect to the advisory vote on the frequency of advisory votes on executive compensation. The Company has indicated that abstentions and broker non-votes will have no effect on the proposal.

Under applicable New York law, none of the holders of Common Stock are entitled to appraisal rights in connection with any matter to be acted on at the Annual Meeting. If you sign and submit your BLUE proxy card without specifying how you would like your shares voted, your shares will be voted in accordance with the manner in which we intend to vote our shares as specified herein and in accordance with the discretion of the persons named on the BLUE proxy card with respect to any other matters that may be voted upon at the Annual Meeting.

14

REVOCATION OF PROXIES

Stockholders of the Company may revoke their proxies at any time prior to exercise by attending the Annual Meeting and voting in person (although attendance at the Annual Meeting will not in and of itself constitute revocation of a proxy) or by delivering a written notice of revocation. The delivery of a subsequently dated proxy which is properly completed will constitute a revocation of any earlier proxy. The revocation may be delivered to the Concerned Shareholders in care of Saratoga Proxy Consulting, LLC at the address set forth on the back cover of this Proxy Statement. Although a revocation is effective if delivered to the Company, we request that either the original or photostatic copies of all revocations be mailed to us in care of Saratoga Proxy at the address set forth on the back cover of this Proxy Statement so that we will be aware of all revocations and can more accurately determine if and when proxies have been received from the holders of record on the Record Date of a majority of the outstanding shares of Common Stock. Additionally, Saratoga Proxy may use this information to contact stockholders who have revoked their proxies in order to solicit later dated proxies for the election of the Nominees.

IF YOU WISH TO VOTE FOR THE ELECTION OF THE NOMINEES TO THE BOARD, PLEASE SIGN, DATE AND RETURN PROMPTLY THE ENCLOSED BLUE PROXY CARD IN THE POSTAGE-PAID ENVELOPE PROVIDED.
