PROXY STATEMENT

FOR

ANNUAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS

TO BE HELD ON FEBRUARY 27, 2013

________________

INTRODUCTION

This proxy statement is being furnished to shareholders by the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of DGT Holdings Corp., a New York corporation (the “Company,” “we,” “our,” and “us”), in connection with the solicitation of the proxies in the accompanying form for use at the 2013 Annual Meeting of Shareholders of the Company (the “Annual Meeting”) to be held at the offices of Olshan Frome Wolosky LLP, Park Avenue Tower, 65 East 55th Street, New York, New York 10022 on Wednesday, February 27, 2013 at 9:00 a.m., Eastern time, or at any adjournment or postponement thereof.  The principal business matters to be considered at the Annual Meeting will be the following proposals:

1. To approve, subject to final action by the Board, an amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation, whereby the Company will effect a 1-for-5,000 reverse stock split (the “Reverse Stock Split”) such that shareholders owning of record fewer than 5,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.10 per share (the “Common Stock”) will have such shares cancelled and converted into the right to receive $13.50 for each share of Common Stock held of record prior to the Reverse Stock Split;

2. To approve, subject to shareholder approval of the proposal described in (1) above and final action by the Board, to take effect immediately following the Reverse Stock Split, an amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation whereby the Company will effect a 5,000-for-1 forward stock split of our outstanding Common Stock (the “Forward Stock Split” and, together with the Reverse Stock Split, the “Reverse/Forward Stock Split”);

3. To elect four (4) members of the Board to serve until the next annual meeting of shareholders and until their successors have been duly elected and qualify;

4. To consider and approve an advisory resolution regarding the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers;

5. To ratify the appointment of BDO USA, LLP as our independent registered public accountants for the fiscal year ending August 3, 2013; and

6. To transact such other business as may properly be brought before the Annual Meeting or any adjournment or postponement thereof.

1

The Board acting on behalf of the Company, by unanimous vote, and upon the unanimous recommendation of a special committee of disinterested directors of the Board (the “Special Committee”) which was established to evaluate and make a recommendation to the Board regarding the Reverse/Forward Stock Split, has determined that proposals One and Two are fair to, and in the best interests of, the Company and its shareholders. including unaffiliated shareholders.

The Board has fixed January 8, 2013 as the record date for the Annual Meeting (the “Record Date”).  It is anticipated that the proxy statement and the proxy will first be made available to shareholders on or about February 7, 2013.

Shareholders of record as of the Record Date are entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting and any adjournments thereof.

SUMMARY OF TERMS OF THE REVERSE/FORWARD STOCK SPLIT

This summary highlights selected information from this proxy statement and may not contain all of the information that is important to you.  To better understand the terms and conditions of the Reverse/Forward Stock Split and the consequent amendments to our Certificate of Incorporation, you should carefully read this entire document, its attachments and the other documents to which we refer.

· The Board, after consideration of numerous factors, including the recommendation of the Special Committee, has authorized amendments to the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation that would:

o effect a 1-for-5,000 reverse stock split of our Common Stock; and

o effect a 5,000-for-1 forward stock split.

· Although the Reverse Stock Split and the Forward Stock Split will be voted on separately, the Company will not effect either the Reverse Stock Split or the Forward Stock Split unless both proposals are approved by the shareholders.

· The Reverse/Forward Stock Split is intended to take effect, subject to shareholder approval and subsequent final action by our Board, on the date the Company files Certificates of Amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation with the Secretary of State of the State of New York, or on any later date that the Company may specify in such Certificates of Amendment (the “Effective Date”), the forms of which are attached hereto as Annex A-1 and Annex A-2.  Our Board has retained the authority to determine whether and when to file the amendments to our Certificate of Incorporation with the Secretary of State of the State of New York to effect the Reverse/Forward Stock Split, notwithstanding the authorization of the Reverse/Forward Stock Split by our shareholders (see “Special Factors – Certain Effects of Reverse/Forward Stock Split on the Company’s Shareholders – Board Discretion” on page 17.)  The Company expects the Effective Date to be as soon as practicable following the Annual Meeting, subject to shareholder approval and final action by the Board.

· Shareholders owning of record fewer than 5,000 shares of the Common Stock immediately before the Reverse Stock Split (the “Cashed Out Shareholders”), upon filing of the Certificates of Amendment as discussed above, will receive the right to receive $13.50 for each share of Common Stock such shareholder held of record immediately before the Reverse Stock Split.  As a result, any person whose shareholdings in the Company immediately before the Reverse Stock Split consist of record ownership of fewer than 5,000 shares of Common Stock will no longer be a shareholder of the Company.  No new certificates representing fractional shares will be issued (see “Special Factors – Certain Effects of Reverse/Forward Stock Split on the Company’s Shareholders” on page 16).

2

· Shareholders holding of record 5,000 or more shares of Common Stock immediately before the Reverse/Forward Stock Split (the “Continuing Shareholders”) will continue to hold the same number of shares after the completion of the Reverse/Forward Stock Split and will not receive any cash payment.

· The consideration of $13.50 per share on a pre-split basis to be received by Cashed Out Shareholders is based primarily upon the estimated value of the Company’s real estate, securities held for sale, and federal net operating loss carryforwards and the third party independent valuation report (the “Valuation Report”) from B. Riley & Co., LLC (“B. Riley”), the Company’s financial advisor.  Note that neither our Board nor our Special Committee obtained an independent fairness opinion for the Reverse/Forward Stock Split, nor did B. Riley render an opinion as to the fairness of the Reverse/Forward Stock Split. See “Special Factors – Background” on page 8; and “– Fairness of the Reverse/Forward Stock Split” on page 10.

· Any person whose shareholdings in the Company consist of record ownership of fewer than 5,000 shares of Common Stock may retain an equity interest in the Company after the Effective Date by purchasing, prior to the Effective Date, a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock so that the shareholder’s total number of shares held of record immediately prior to the Reverse Stock Split is equal to or greater than 5,000. (See “Proposals One and Two Amendments to the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation to Effect a 1-for-5,000 Reverse Stock Split and to Effect a 5,000-for-1 Forward Stock Split – Payment for Fractional Shares” on page 30).

· For shareholders who hold fewer than 5,000 shares of Common Stock in street name, your broker, bank or other nominee is considered the shareholder of record with respect to those shares and not you.  It is possible that the bank, broker or other nominee also holds shares for other beneficial owners of our Common Stock and that it may hold 5,000 or more total shares.  Therefore, depending upon their procedures, they may not be obligated to treat the Reverse Stock Split as affecting beneficial holders’ shares.  It is our desire to treat shareholders holding fewer than 5,000 shares of our Common Stock in street name through a nominee (such as a bank or broker) in the same manner as shareholders whose shares are registered in their name.  As such, we will request that they effect the Reverse/Forward Stock Split for their beneficial holders.  However, we or our transfer agent, Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, may not have the necessary information to compare your record holdings with any shares that you may hold in street name in a brokerage account and these banks, brokers and other nominees may have different procedures for processing the Reverse Stock Split.  In a potential hypothetical scenario, a broker, bank or other nominee may hold a total aggregate amount of 7,000 shares of Common Stock on behalf of two beneficial owners, Shareholder A, who owns 4,000 shares beneficially through such broker, and Shareholder B who owns 3,000 shares beneficially through such broker.  Following the effectiveness of the Reverse Stock Split, the broker will be asked to provide a listing of any shareholders who own shares beneficially through the broker so that Shareholder A and Shareholder B may be cashed out in the Reverse/Forward Stock Split.  However, we cannot provide any assurance that such broker will accurately report the beneficial holdings of Shareholder A and Shareholder B.  Therefore, it is possible that Shareholder A and Shareholder B would not be cashed out in the Reverse/Forward Stock Split despite the fact that each of Shareholder A and Shareholder B holds less than 5,000 shares of Common Stock prior to the Reverse Stock Split.  Accordingly, if you hold your shares of our Common Stock in street name, we encourage you to contact your bank, broker or other nominee.

· For shareholders that own a total of 5,000 or more shares of Common Stock beneficially through multiple brokerage firms in street name, or through a combination of record ownership and one or more brokerage firms in street name, we may not have the information to compare your record holdings and your ownership through a brokerage firm or to compare your holdings in two or more different brokerage firms.  As a result, if you hold more than the minimum number of shares, you may nevertheless have your shares cashed-out if you hold them in a combination of record and street name or through accounts in several brokerage firms.  If you are in this situation and desire to remain our shareholder after the Reverse/Forward Stock Split, we recommend that you combine your holdings in one brokerage account or transfer any shares held through a brokerage firm into record name prior to the effective time of the Reverse/Forward Stock Split.  In addition, note that we will not consolidate different record ownerships for purposes of effecting the Reverse/Forward Stock Split.  You should be able to determine whether your shares will be cashed-out by examining your brokerage account statements to see if you hold more than the minimum number of shares in any one account.  To determine the Reverse/Forward Stock Split’s effect on any shares you hold in street name (and possible payment of the cash consideration), you should contact your broker, bank or other nominee.

3

· The principal purpose of the Reverse/Forward Stock Split is to reduce the number of shareholders of record of the Company’s Common Stock to fewer than 300, enabling the Company to terminate its status as a reporting company under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and thereby eliminate the significant expenses associated with being a reporting company (see “Special Factors – Purpose and Reasons for the Reverse/Forward Stock Split” on page 7).    Based on its experience, the Board believes that, after giving effect to the estimated costs of the Reverse/Forward Stock Split, total savings of approximately $297,500 in previously estimated incremental annualized costs of continuing as a public company may be realized by going private.  The Reverse/Forward Stock Split is considered a “going private” transaction as defined in Rule 13e-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act (a “Rule 13e-3 Transaction”).  Accordingly, the Company and Steel Partners Holdings L.P. (“Steel Holdings”), the controlling shareholder of the Company, have filed a Rule 13e-3 Transaction Statement on Schedule 13E-3 with the SEC related to the Reverse/Forward Stock Split. The Schedule 13E-3 is available on the SEC’s website at http://www.sec.gov or from the Company.

· A principal advantage of the Reverse/Forward Stock Split to Cashed Out Shareholders is that the Company will purchase their fractional shares of Common Stock without charging brokerage commissions or other costs normally associated with the sale of securities (see “Special Factors – Certain Effects of Reverse/Forward Stock Split on the Company’s Shareholders” on page 16).

· The principal disadvantage of the Reverse/Forward Stock Split is that many of the Company’s shareholders will cease to be shareholders following the Reverse/Forward Stock Split and will not receive certain benefits of the Reverse/Forward Stock Split (see “Special Factors – Certain Effects of Reverse/Forward Stock Split on the Company’s Shareholders” on page 16).

· Approval of the amendments to the Certificate of Incorporation to effect the Reverse/Forward Stock Split will require approval by holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Common Stock entitled to vote thereon (see “Proposals One and Two Amendments to the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation to Effect a 1-for-5,000 Reverse Stock Split and to Effect a 5,000-for-1 Forward Stock Split – Vote Required” on page 31).

· Our Board has retained the authority to determine whether and when to file the amendments to our Certificate of Incorporation with the Secretary of State of the State of New York to effect the Reverse/Forward Stock Split, notwithstanding the authorization of the Reverse/Forward Stock Split by our shareholders.  Our Board may abandon the Reverse/Forward Stock Split at any time or may proceed with the Reverse/Forward Stock Split at any time without further notice to or action on the part of our shareholders (see “Special Factors – Certain Effects of Reverse/Forward Stock Split on the Company’s Shareholders – Board Discretion” on page 17).

4

· Each shareholder whose fractional share is repurchased by the Company will recognize gain or loss for federal income tax purposes measured by the difference between the shareholder’s basis in the fractional share and the cash consideration received for the fractional share.  The gain or loss will be capital gain or loss if the share was held as a capital asset (see “Special Factors – Federal Income Tax Consequences” on page 19).

· Under the New York Business Corporation Law, shareholders do not have the right to dissent and demand payment for their shares (see “Proposals One and Two Amendments to the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation to Effect a 1-for-5,000 Reverse Stock Split and to Effect a 5,000-for-1 Forward Stock Split – Appraisal and Dissenters’ Rights” on page 31).

· The Board acting on behalf of the Company, upon the recommendation of the Special Committee to the Board, has concluded that the Reverse/Forward Stock Split is procedurally and substantively fair to our affiliated and unaffiliated shareholders, including Cashed Out Shareholders and Continuing Shareholders.  This conclusion was based on the analysis of several factors described in detail in this proxy statement in the section captioned “Special Factors – Fairness of the Reverse/Forward Stock Split” on page 10 and the Valuation Report delivered by B. Riley described in the section captioned “Special Factors – Third Party Valuation Report” on page 13.

· Steel Holdings, a controlling shareholder of the Company, is subject to Rule 13e-3 promulgated by the SEC under the Exchange Act with respect to “going private” transactions and is a “filing person” for purposes of Schedule 13E-3. Steel Holdings has, along with the Company, filed a Rule 13e-3 Transaction Statement on Schedule 13E-3 with the Commission, adopted the analysis and conclusions of the Special Committee and our Board, and concluded that the Reverse/Forward Stock Split is procedurally and substantively fair to the Company’s affiliated and unaffiliated shareholders, including Cashed Out Shareholders and Continuing Shareholders.  See the section in the proxy statement captioned “Special Factors – Fairness Determination by Steel Partners Holdings L.P.” on page 12.

· Steel Holdings is the controlling shareholder of the Company. In addition, each of Mr. Howard, the Chairman of our Board, Mr. Gibson, our President, Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and director, and Mr. McGill, our Vice President and General Counsel, are affiliates of Steel Holdings.  The material facts as to each such director and/or executive officer’s interest are known to or have been fully disclosed to each of the other members of the Board. For more detailed information concerning any conflict of interest of our Board or any filing person with respect to the Reverse/Forward Stock Split or concerning our relationship with any of our shareholders, please see also information under the sections of the proxy statement captioned “Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management” on page 43, “Proposal Three Election of Directors – Certain Relationships and Related Transactions” on page 39, and “Special Factors – Potential Conflicts of Interests of Officers, Directors and Certain Affiliated Persons” on page 12.

5

· As of January 8, 2013, the Record Date for the Annual Meeting, there were 3,879,468 shares of Common Stock outstanding and there were 384 shareholders of record.  The Company estimates that after the Reverse/Forward Stock Split is effected, the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding will be approximately 3,529,468 shares in the hands of approximately 35 shareholders of record.  The total number of fractional shares to be purchased is estimated to be equivalent to approximately 350,000 shares of Common Stock on a pre-split basis at a cost of approximately $4,725,000.  However, this is only an estimate and the exact number of shares that will be purchased in connection with the Reverse/Forward Stock Split will be determined on the Effective Date.

SPECIAL FACTORS

Purpose and Reasons for the Reverse/Forward Stock Split

The Company, a New York corporation, was incorporated in 1954.  The reason for the Reverse/Forward Stock Split is to relieve the Company of the costs and burdens of remaining a public company and to reduce the costs associated with servicing many small shareholder accounts.

The Board believes that there are considerable costs and burdens to the Company in remaining a public reporting company.  To comply with its obligations under the Exchange Act, the Company incurs direct and indirect costs associated with compliance with the filing and reporting requirements imposed on public companies.  Examples of direct cost savings from termination of registration of the Common Stock include: lower printing and mailing costs; reduced reporting and disclosure requirements due to the company’s private status; and reduction in direct expenses such as word processing and preparing electronic filings in the EDGAR format prescribed by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC” or the “Commission”).  The Company has determined that there will be a reduction in audit and legal fees once the Company is no longer subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act.  The Company also incurs indirect costs as a result of executive time expended to prepare and review such Exchange Act filings.  Ceasing registration of the Common Stock is expected to substantially reduce many of these costs.

The Company also expects the Reverse/Forward Stock Split to reduce the cost of servicing shareholder accounts.  The costs of printing and mailing materials to shareholders increases for each shareholder account, regardless of the number of shares held by the shareholder.  Many of the Company’s shareholders hold a relatively small number of shares, and the cost of servicing such accounts is disproportionate to the size of the holdings.

The Reverse/Forward Stock Split would not only reduce these servicing expenses, but would also provide a cash payment to holders of record of fewer than 5,000 shares for their interest in the Company.  Shareholders owning 5,000 or more shares would receive no cash payments and would continue as shareholders of the Company holding the same number of shares as were held by them immediately before the Reverse/Forward Stock Split.

Based on its experience, the Board believes that total savings of approximately $297,500 in previously estimated incremental annualized costs of continuing as a public company may be realized by going private, as follows:

“Going Dark” Cost Savings

Audit (and Interim Reviews) of Financial Statements	$	87,500
SEC Accounting, Sarbanes-Oxley Compliance		40,000
Legal		100,000
Investor relations, transfer agent, financial printing		62,500
Miscellaneous		7,500
Total	$	297,500

These amounts, however, are just estimates, and the actual savings to be realized may be higher or lower than such estimates.

7

If the Reverse Stock Split and Forward Stock Split are approved and implemented, the Company believes that thereafter the number of shareholders of record will be fewer than 300.  The Company intends to terminate the registration of its Common Stock under the Exchange Act pursuant to Section 12(g)(4) of the Exchange Act.  Following the Reverse/Forward Stock Split, the decision by the Company to terminate Exchange Act registration upon implementation of the Reverse/Forward Stock Split does not require shareholder approval and will not be voted on at the Annual Meeting.  The Company’s duty to file periodic reports with the SEC, such as quarterly and annual reports, will be suspended once the Company has fewer than 300 shareholders of record and has filed the appropriate form with the SEC.  However, the Company currently intends to continue to provide shareholders with summary annual audited financial statements and quarterly financial information, and periodic updates when determined to be appropriate by the Board.  This information will not be as detailed or extensive as the information the Company has been required to file with the SEC or has provided to its shareholders in the past.

The Board also believes that, following the Reverse/Forward Stock Split, our management will be able to better focus on our long-term business goals of capital redeployment and the identification of new profitable operations where we can utilize our existing working capital and maximize the use of our net operating losses.

In consideration of the aforementioned reasons, upon recommendation of the Special Committee, the Board, on December 14, 2012, approved, subject to approval by the Company’s shareholders and final action by the Board, amendments to the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation to effect the Reverse/Forward Stock Split.

Background

On November 3, 2011, we sold (the “Villa Sale”) our Villa Sistemi Medicali S.p.A. subsidiary (“Villa”).  On August 16, 2012, we sold our power conversion business (the “Power Conversion Business Sale”) operated by our RFI Corporation subsidiary (“RFI”).  Prior to these sales, we were a leader in developing, manufacturing and marketing medical and dental imaging systems and power conversion subsystems and components worldwide.  Our products included stationary and portable medical and dental diagnostic imaging systems and electronic systems and components such as electronic filters, transformers and capacitors.  We currently have a real estate business that includes the leasing of property owned by the Company through its subsidiaries in Milan, Italy and Bay Shore, New York.  In addition to the real estate business, our business is expected to consist primarily of capital redeployment and identification of new profitable operations where we can utilize our existing working capital and maximize the use of our net operating losses.

Board Deliberations

At a meeting of the Board held on September 14, 2012, the Board discussed ways to increase shareholder value and reduce the Company’s expenses following the consummation of the Villa Sale and the Power Conversion Business Sale, including the possibility of ceasing registration of its common stock through reverse and forward stock splits.  The Board discussed certain shareholder approval requirements, the possibility of retaining B. Riley to undertake a valuation analysis, the merits of forming a special committee, and certain other possible considerations relating to deregistration.  The Board then decided to postpone the discussion relating to the possibility of deregistration until the next meeting of the Board.

At the meeting of the Board held on October 8, 2012, the Board continued discussion of the possibility of deregistration and outside counsel advised management and the Board regarding certain aspects of going-private transactions and reverse and forward stock splits.  In addition, the Board discussed certain regulations relating to the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, and the possibility of effecting stock splits that would reduce the number of holders of record below 100.  The Board then approved the establishment of the Special Committee, consisting of General McPeak and Mr. Risher, the disinterested members of the Board, to evaluate and make a recommendation to the Board regarding the transaction.

Management recommended that a ratio of 1-to-5,000 would reduce the number of record shareholders to a level sufficiently below 300 to allow adequate margin for any increase in the number of shareholders that might occur prior to or after the effectiveness of a reverse stock split (for example, as a result of holders with shares in “street name” requesting that share certificates be issued in their own name, or persons other than current shareholders acquiring shares).

At a meeting of the Special Committee held on December 9, 2012, the Special Committee formally retained B. Riley to provide a Valuation Report concerning the value of the consideration proposed to be paid to Cashed Out Shareholders in connection with the Reverse Stock Split.  The terms of B. Riley’s analysis can be found below under “--Third Party Valuation Report.”

On December 14, 2012, the Special Committee met and reviewed with a representative of B. Riley its Valuation Report and related analysis concerning the value of the consideration proposed to be paid to Cashed Out Shareholders in connection with the Reverse Stock Split.  The Valuation Report of B. Riley estimated that the fair market value of the shares to be repurchased in connection with the Reverse/Forward Stock Split is between $13.00 and $14.50 per share, representing premiums of 8.3% to 20.8%, respectively, to the Company’s closing price on December 12, 2012.  Following its review of the analysis provided by B. Riley, which the Special Committee adopted as its own, and in consideration of the factors described in this “Special Factors” section of the proxy statement, the Special Committee determined that proposals One and Two are fair to, and in the best interests of, the Company and its shareholders and recommended that the Board submit these proposals to the Company’s shareholders for their approval.

The Board, acting on behalf of the Company, then considered the recommendation of the Special Committee, based on the analyses and factors described herein, including the Valuation Report, which were adopted by the Board, and unanimously adopted a resolution declaring the terms and conditions of the Reverse/Forward Stock Split to be advisable, directing that proposed amendments to the Certificate of Incorporation of the Company effecting the Reverse/Forward Stock Split be submitted to the shareholders of the Company for consideration and authorized and directed management of the Company to file a preliminary proxy statement with the SEC, and to effect any other filings and take all other corporate actions necessary or appropriate in connection therewith.

If the shareholders approve the Reverse/Forward Stock Split, subject to final action by the Board, the Company will file certificates of amendment to the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation with the Secretary of State of the State of New York in substantially the forms attached hereto as Annex A-1 and Annex A-2.  The Reverse/Forward Stock Split will become effective on the Effective Date which is the date the amendments are filed with the Secretary of State of the State of New York, or such later date as is specified in the filing.  The Company expects the amendments to become effective as soon as practicable following the Annual Meeting, subject to final action by the Board.

Alternatives Considered

The Board considered alternative transactions to reduce the number of shareholders but ultimately determined that the Reverse/Forward Stock Split was the preferred method.  The Board considered the following alternative strategies:

9

Issuer Tender Offer.  The Board considered an issuer tender offer to repurchase shares of the Company’s outstanding Common Stock.  The results of an issuer tender offer would be unpredictable, however, due to its voluntary nature.  The Board was uncertain as to whether this alternative would result in shares being tendered by a sufficient number of record holders so as to permit the Company to reduce the number of record holders below 300, to reduce its administrative costs related to servicing shareholders who own a relatively small number of shares and to terminate its SEC reporting requirements.  The Board was also uncertain as to whether many holders of a small number of shares would make the effort to tender their shares.  In addition, the Board considered the cost of completing the tender offer, which could be significant in relation to the value of the shares sought to be purchased.

Purchase of Shares in the Open Market.  There is a limited trading market for the Common Stock and there would be no way to ascertain whether purchases would result in a smaller number of record shareholders; therefore, the Board believes it would be highly unlikely that shares could be acquired by the Company from a sufficient number of holders to accomplish the Board’s objectives.

Continuing As Is.  Finally, the Board considered taking no action to reduce the number of shareholders of the Company.  However, due to the Company’s significant costs of compliance under the Exchange Act, especially in relation to the Company’s overall expenses and less extensive operations than it engaged in during previous years, the Board believes that taking no action at this time is not in the best interests of the Company.

The Board has determined that the Reverse/Forward Stock Split is the most expeditious and economical method of changing the Company’s status from that of a reporting company to that of a non-reporting company.  The Company has not sought, and has not received, any proposals for the merger or consolidation of the Company, or for the sale or other transfer of all or any substantial portion of the Company’s assets, or for the sale of securities of the Company that would enable the holder thereof to exercise control of the Company.  See “Special Factors—Background.”

Fairness of the Reverse/Forward Stock Split

The Board, acting on behalf of the Company, and the Special Committee believe that the Reverse/Forward Stock Split, a Rule 13e-3 Transaction, taken as a whole, is substantively and procedurally fair to and in the best interests of the Company and its affiliated and unaffiliated shareholders, including the Cashed-Out Shareholders and Continuing Shareholders.  In determining the fairness of the Reverse/Forward Stock Split, the Board and the Special Committee considered a number of factors prior to approval of the proposed transaction.

The Board and the Special Committee recognized the concerns of shareholders owning of record fewer than 5,000 shares of Common Stock.  The Reverse/Forward Stock Split will allow such affiliated and unaffiliated Cashed Out Shareholders to liquidate their holdings at a fair value, and without brokerage or other transaction costs, by receiving cash for their interest.

Continuing Shareholders (including unaffiliated shareholders) are expected to benefit from the reduction of direct and indirect costs borne by the Company to maintain its public company status.

Substantive Fairness Discussion.  In determining to approve the Reverse/Forward Stock Split and recommend that shareholders approve it, in addition to adopting the analysis presented by B. Riley, the Board, acting on behalf of the Company, and the Special Committee considered the following material factors:

· The limited trading market and liquidity of the Common Stock.

· The opportunity afforded by the Reverse/Forward Stock Split for holders of even a small number of shares to receive a cash payment for their interest without brokerage costs.

10

· The analysis described under “Third Party Valuation Report” and the finding that B. Riley estimates that the fair market value of the shares to be repurchased in connection with the Reverse/Forward Stock Split is between $13.00 and $14.50 per share, representing premiums of 8.3% to 20.8%, respectively, to the Company’s closing price on December 12, 2012.

· The reported market price of the Company’s common stock was between $8.51 and $11.66 per share during the period from December 12, 2011 through December 13, 2012, the last trading day before the Board approved the payment amount.

· The fact that at the 1-for-5,000 ratio, the Reverse/Forward Stock Split would not significantly impact control of the Company, and that the Company expects that the (a) Company’s directors and executive officers would beneficially own approximately 4.2% of the Common Stock as of January 8, 2013 and 4.6% following the Reverse/Forward Stock Split and (b) Steel Holdings would beneficially own approximately 59.2% of the Common Stock as of January 8, 2013 and 65.0% following the Reverse/Forward Stock Split.  Accordingly, the Board and the Special Committee did not view the Reverse/Forward Stock Split as significantly impacting control of the Company.

In determining to approve the Reverse/Forward Stock Split, the Board placed the greatest weight on the Company’s stock price performance and the Valuation Report.  After evaluating these factors, the Board, acting on behalf of the Company, determined that the Reverse/Forward Stock Split, a Rule 13e-3 Transaction, is substantively fair to the affiliated and unaffiliated shareholders of the Company, including the Cashed-Out Shareholders and Continuing Shareholders.

Procedural Fairness Discussion.  The Reverse/Forward Stock Split has not been structured to require the separate approval of shareholders unaffiliated with the Company because the Board, acting on behalf of the Company, concluded that the interests of unaffiliated shareholders were sufficiently represented at the Board level by the Special Committee.  The Special Committee consists of disinterested directors of the Board and was established to evaluate and make a recommendation to the Board regarding the Reverse/Forward Stock Split.

Neither our Board nor the Special Committee requested or relied on a fairness opinion on behalf of our unaffiliated shareholders because costs associated with obtaining such an opinion, which could be between $300,000 and $400,000, outweighed its perceived benefits.  While all of our affiliated shareholders will remain shareholders following the Reverse/Forward Stock Split by virtue of the size of their holdings, unaffiliated shareholders will have the same opportunity if they so choose (by purchasing a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock prior to the effective time of the Reverse/Forward Stock Split so that the shareholder’s total number of shares held of record immediately prior to the Reverse Stock Split is equal to or greater than 5,000). In light of this fact, our Board concluded that the additional expense associated with obtaining a fairness opinion was not justified.  However, our Board and Special Committee did obtain the Valuation Report from B. Riley that estimated that the fair market value of the shares to be repurchased in connection with the Reverse/Forward Stock Split is between $13.00 and $14.50 per share.

No unaffiliated representative has been retained to act solely on behalf of unaffiliated shareholders for purposes of negotiating the terms of the Reverse/Forward Stock Split.  Additionally, the Board made no specific provision to grant unaffiliated shareholders access to the Company’s corporate files, except as may be required by the New York Business Corporation Law, or to obtain counsel or appraisal services at the Company’s expense.  The Special Committee and the Board noted that this proxy statement, along with our other filings with the SEC, provide a great deal of information to enable unaffiliated shareholders to make an informed decision as to the Reverse/Forward Stock Split.

11

Therefore, based on these factors, the Board, acting on behalf of the Company, determined that the Reverse/Forward Stock Split, a Rule 13e-3 Transaction, is procedurally fair to affiliated and unaffiliated shareholders who are Cashed-Out Shareholders.

After evaluating the substantive and procedural fairness of the Reverse/Forward Stock Split, the Board, acting on behalf of the Company, concluded that the Reverse/Forward Stock Split is the most expeditious, efficient, cost effective and fair method to convert the Company from a reporting company to a privately-held non-reporting company.

On December 14, 2012, the Board and the Special Committee received and adopted the analysis set forth in the Valuation Report.  Based on that Valuation Report and the factors described above, the Board, acting on behalf of the Company, and the Special Committee unanimously determined that the purchase price for fractional shares of the Company’s Common Stock of $13.50 per share on a pre-split basis is fair to the holders of Common Stock of the Company, including the unaffiliated shareholders of the Company, and voted to approve the Reverse/Forward Stock Split.

Fairness Determination by Steel Partners Holdings L.P.

Steel Holdings, a controlling shareholder of the Company, is subject to Rule 13e-3 promulgated by the SEC under the Exchange Act with respect to “going private” transactions and is a “filing person” for purposes of Schedule 13E-3.  Steel Holdings has adopted the analysis and conclusions of the Special Committee and our Board, including the Valuation Report, and has concluded that the Reverse/Forward Stock Split is procedurally and substantively fair to the Company’s affiliated and unaffiliated shareholders, including Cashed Out Shareholders and Continuing Shareholders.  Steel Holdings relied on the factors analyzed by the Board and the Special Committee as described in the above section of the proxy statement captioned “--Fairness of the Reverse/Forward Stock Split” along with the Valuation Report provided by B. Riley as described in the section of the proxy statement below captioned “--Third Party Valuation Report.”

Potential Conflicts of Interests of Officers, Directors and Certain Affiliated Persons

Our directors and executive officers and 10% shareholders may have interests in the Reverse/Forward Stock Split that are different from your interests as a shareholder, and have relationships that may present conflicts of interest.  To the Company’s knowledge, Steel Holdings and each director of the Company intends to vote all shares of Common Stock for which those persons have voting authority, for the proposed Reverse/Forward Stock Split and related Amendments to the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation.  The shares held by the directors represent approximately 1.5% of the voting power of the Common Stock on the Record Date and the shares held by Steel Holdings represent approximately 59.2% of the voting power of the Common Stock on the Record Date.   In addition, certain directors hold options to acquire shares of our Common Stock.  The Reverse/Forward Stock Split will not affect these stock options and they will remain outstanding at the same per share exercise price after the Reverse/Forward Stock Split.  However, these stock options may become less valuable if they cannot be turned into cash quickly and easily once earned because of the lack of a ready market and a decline in the price of our Common Stock.   See “Security Ownership Of Certain Beneficial Owners And Management.”

Upon the effectiveness of the Reverse/Forward Stock Split, the aggregate number of shares of our Common Stock owned by our directors and executive officers and Steel Holdings will remain the same and the ownership percentage of the shares of our Common Stock held by our directors, executive officers and Steel Holdings will increase by approximately 6.2% from 63.4% to 69.6% as a result of the reduction of the number of shares of our Common Stock outstanding.  The increase in the ownership percentage of our shares of Common Stock held by our directors, executive officers and Steel Holdings and the reduction in the number of shares outstanding following the completion of the Reverse/Forward Stock Split is based on record holder information that we received as of January 8, 2013 from our transfer agent, Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, as to our record holders, and information we have received regarding the holdings of beneficial owners of our Common Stock held in street name.  The number of shares to be cashed-out in the Reverse/Forward Stock Split may vary from the estimate above, and the ownership percentage of our shares of Common Stock held by our directors, executive officers and Steel Holdings and the ownership percentage of the Continuing Shareholders after the Reverse/Forward Stock Split will proportionally increase or decrease as a result of purchases, sales and other transfers of our shares of Common Stock by our shareholders prior to the effective time of the Reverse/Forward Stock Split and the number of street name shares that are actually cashed-out in the Reverse/Forward Stock Split.

12

Directors, executive officers and any shareholders who own more than 10% of our outstanding Common Stock will experience certain advantages after the Reverse/Forward Stock Split in that they will be relieved of certain SEC reporting requirements and “short-swing profit” trading provisions under Section 16 of the Exchange Act and information regarding their compensation and stock ownership will no longer be publicly available.  In addition, by deregistering the Common Stock under the Exchange Act subsequent to the consummation of the Reverse/Forward Stock Split, we will no longer be prohibited, pursuant to Section 402 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, from making personal loans to our directors or executive officers, although no such loans currently are contemplated.

Third Party Valuation Report

On or about December 9, 2012 the Special Committee retained B. Riley to act as a third party independent financial advisor to prepare a valuation report to determine the fair market value for the shares of Common Stock held by the Cashed Out Shareholders.  The Special Committee considered several possible financial advisors and selected B. Riley on the basis of its experience, the time it would take to complete its work and the cost to the Company of its engagement.  On December 14, 2012, the Special Committee met with B. Riley and reviewed and accepted its Valuation Report.

The Company expects to pay B. Riley a fee of $65,000, which was not contingent on any result.

The full text of B. Riley’s valuation report is attached as Annex B and should be read carefully in its entirety.  B. Riley’s valuation report has been provided in this proxy statement with the express written permission of B. Riley.  B. Riley’s valuation report is directed to the Special Committee and relates only to the fair market value of the shares of Common Stock and the Reverse Stock Split, does not address any other aspect of the Reverse/Forward Stock Split or any related transaction and does not constitute a recommendation to any shareholder with respect to the Reverse Stock Split or any other matter being voted upon by the shareholders.

In the course of preparing its Valuation Report, B. Riley conferred with the Company’s management concerning the evolution of its business, operations and outlook for the future.

The following is a summary of the material financial analysis that B. Riley performed in connection with the rendering of its opinion, which analysis was presented to the Special Committee at its meeting on December 14, 2012.

B. Riley’s valuation conclusions are based on a number of key considerations, including but not limited to:

· The mark-to-market value of the Company’s investments in marketable securities as of December 12, 2012;

· The nature of the securities held in the Company’s portfolio of marketable securities;

· The latest available third-party valuations of the Company’s domestic and foreign real estate holdings;

· The presence of U.S. Federal and State net operating loss carryforwards and their potential impact on the Company’s equity value;

13

· The number of shares and percentage ownership in the Company represented by the shares anticipated to be repurchased in connection with the Reverse/Forward Stock Split;

· The Company’s size and the lack of marketability associated with its Common Stock; and

· Factors influencing the Company’s net asset value both as a going concern and under a liquidation scenario.

None of the information provided by the Company was audited by B. Riley as part of its engagement. B. Riley relied on such information without independent verification and expresses no opinion or other form of assurance on its accuracy, fairness and completeness. The Valuation Report and related analysis reflect B. Riley’s best judgment in light of the information available at the time.

Based on its experience and professional judgment after considering the results of its analyses taken as a whole, without attributing any particular weight to or reaching a conclusion based on any specific analysis, B. Riley estimates that the fair market value of the shares to be repurchased in connection with the Reverse/Forward Stock Split is between $13.00 and $14.50 per share, representing premiums of 8.3% and 20.8%, respectively, to the Company’s close price of $12.00 as of December 12, 2012. B. Riley was not asked to, nor did it, provide a recommendation regarding the purchase price determined by the Special Committee to repurchase shares held by shareholders owning of record fewer than 5,000 shares of Common Stock.  Rather, the Special Committee selected a proposed consideration price and recommended such price to the full Board, which subsequently approved a purchase price of $13.50 per share on a pre-split basis for each fractional share resulting from the Reverse Stock Split payable to shareholders owning of record fewer than 5,000 shares of Common Stock.

Set forth below is a summary of the material financial analyses presented by B. Riley to the Special Committee. The summary set forth below does not purport to be a complete description of the analyses performed or presentation made by B. Riley in this regard. B. Riley believes that its presentation and analyses must be considered as a whole and that selecting portions of its analyses and factors considered by it, without considering all of its analyses and factors, or attempting to ascribe relative weights to some or all of its analyses and factors, could create an incomplete view of the evaluation process underlying the valuation analysis.

No company used in the analyses described below is identical to the Company. Accordingly, an analysis of the results thereof necessarily involves complex considerations and judgments concerning differences in financial and operating characteristics and other factors that could affect the  Reverse/Forward Stock Splitor the public trading or other values of the Company or companies to which it is being compared.

Precedent Dutch Tender Offer Analysis

Dutch Tender Offers incorporate certain features that make them relevant to the Reverse/Forward Stock Split, including: i) Dutch Tenders are return of capital transactions to shareholders; ii) Dutch Tenders involve the issuer directly offering a premium to shareholders to induce the repurchase of stock; and iii) the premiums ultimately paid by issuers are generally reflective of investors’ expectations for premiums given that shareholders communicate the price at which they are willing to sell their holdings back to the issuer. The premiums paid were drawn from a group of publicly-traded small- and mid-sized firms that have tendered for and repurchased less than 20% of their total shares outstanding since November 2009. This categorization is generally consistent with that of the Company’s situation. B. Riley reviewed 21 Dutch Tender Offers and applied the inter-quartile range of one-day premiums of 5.4% to 18.0% to the Company’s last close price of $12.00 as of December 12, 2012 to get to an implied share price range of $12.64 to $14.16. The inter-quartile range was used to eliminate the effect of major outliers in the data set and to capture the distribution of the data.

Precedent Reverse / Forward Stock Splits Analysis

The Precedent Reverse / Forward Stock Splits Analysis takes into account historical reverse / forward stock splits executed by companies since February 2005 with similar objectives to that of the Reverse/Forward Stock Split. B. Riley reviewed 51 reverse / forward stock splits and applied the inter-quartile range of one-day premiums of 4.0% to 37.1% to the Company’s last close price of $12.00 as of December 12, 2012 to get to an implied share price range of $12.48 to $16.45. The inter-quartile range was used to eliminate the effect of major outliers in the data set and to capture the distribution of the data.

Precedent Minority Interest Transactions Analysis

The Precedent Minority Interest Transactions Analysis takes into account secondary market transactions since February 2008 involving the exchange of minority stakes of less than 20% of a company. All historical transactions consist of targets based in the U.S. and feature all-cash transactions. B. Riley reviewed 15 minority interest transactions and applied the inter-quartile range of one-day premiums of 0.0% to 32.3% to the Company’s last close price of $12.00 as of December 12, 2012 to get to an implied share price range of $12.00 to $15.88. The inter-quartile range was used to eliminate the effect of major outliers in the data set and to capture the distribution of the data.

Liquidation Value Analysis

The Liquidation Value Analysis utilizes the concept that the value of a business is best represented by the present value of its assets (including all cash and equivalents, securities held for sale, real estate owned, and other assets) net of all liabilities. B. Riley accounted for the mark-to-market value of the securities held, the estimated market of the real estate owned as per third-party valuations provided by the Company, foreign capital gains taxes, U.S. net operating loss carryforwards available to shelter capital gains, and other adjustments. B. Riley applied an estimated capital gains tax of 27.5%, as per Italian corporate tax laws, to the Villa real estate which B. Riley estimated would not be sheltered under the U.S.-based net operating loss carryforwards in the event of a liquidation. All other tax implications would be sheltered, as per management guidance, under Company’s federal net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $32.4 million as of July 28, 2012.  Subsequently, B. Riley applied a 10.0% to 12.0% wind-down expense range to the gross value of all assets to simulate operating and liquidation expenses & contingencies associated with liquidating the Company. The Liquidation Value Analysis resulted in an estimated Liquidation Value per share range of $13.76 to $14.10.

Certain Effects of the Reverse /Forward Stock Split on the Company’s Shareholders

Rights, Preferences and Limitations.  There are no differences between the respective rights, preferences or limitations of the Common Stock before the Reverse/Forward Stock Split and the Common Stock after the Reverse/Forward Stock Split.  There will be no differences with respect to dividend, voting, liquidation or other rights associated with the Company’s Common Stock before and after the Reverse/Forward Stock Split.

If the Reverse Stock Split and Forward Stock Split are approved, the interests of Continuing Shareholders will not change.  Securities acquired from Cashed Out Shareholders will be retired by the Company.

If the Reverse/Forward Stock Split is effected, shareholders whose shareholdings in the Company consist of record ownership of fewer than 5,000 shares of Common Stock will no longer have any equity interest in the Company and will not participate in future increases or decreases to the Company’s stock price.

Upon the effectiveness of the Reverse/Forward Stock Split, the aggregate number of shares of our Common Stock owned by our directors and executive officers and Steel Holdings will remain the same and the ownership percentage of the shares of our Common Stock held by our directors, executive officers and Steel Holdings will increase by approximately 6.2% from 63.4% to 69.6% as a result of the reduction of the number of shares of our Common Stock outstanding.

Financial Impact.  The Company estimates that after the Reverse/Forward Stock Split is effected the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding will be approximately 3,529,468 shares in the hands of approximately 35 shareholders of record.  The total number of fractional shares to be purchased is estimated to be equivalent to approximately 350,000 shares of Common Stock on a pre-split basis at a cost of approximately $4,725,000.  The cost of the Reverse/Forward Stock Split transaction will be paid from the Company’s available cash and other liquid assets.  No other material impact on the Company’s financial statements is expected.

Upon the effectiveness of the Reverse/Forward Stock Split, Steel Holdings’ interest in: (a) the Company’s net book value (calculated on a pro forma basis as of October 27, 2012) would increase by 5.8%, from approximately 59.2% or $33,482,928 before the Reverse/Forward Stock Split to approximately 65.0% or $33,692,100 after the Reverse/Forward Stock Split and (b) the Company’s future net earnings (calculated on a pro forma basis using net income reported for the three months ended October 27, 2012) would increase by 5.8%, from approximately 59.2% or $4,665,552 before the Reverse/Forward Stock Split to approximately 65.0% or $5,122,650 after the Reverse/Forward Stock Split.

The number of shares to be cashed-out in the Reverse/Forward Stock Split may vary from the estimate above, and the ownership percentage of our shares of Common Stock held by our directors, executive officers and 10% shareholders and the ownership percentage of the continuing shareholders after the Reverse/Forward Stock Split will proportionally increase or decrease as a result of purchases, sales and other transfers of our shares of Common Stock by our shareholders prior to the effective time of the Reverse/Forward Stock Split, and depending on the number of street name shares that are actually cashed-out in the Reverse/Forward Stock Split. 

16

Appraisal or Dissenters’ Rights.  Under the New York Business Corporation Law, no appraisal or dissenters’ rights exist with respect to the Reverse/Forward Stock Split and the Company is not voluntarily according dissenting shareholders such rights.

Board Discretion.  Our Board has retained the final authority to determine if and when to file the amendments to the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation with the Secretary of State of the State of New York in order to effectuate the Reverse/Forward Stock Split.  Notwithstanding authorization of the proposed transactions by our shareholders, our Board may abandon the Reverse/Forward Stock Split at any time without further action by our shareholders, or may file the amendments at any time without further notice to or action by our shareholders.  However, the Board believes that the proposals should be acted on before they become “stale” and expects to make its decision within 60 days after approval by the shareholders.

Termination of Registration with SEC.  The Common Stock is currently registered under the Exchange Act.  Such registration may be terminated, under SEC rules, upon application of the Company to the SEC if the Company has fewer than 300 record holders of its Common Stock.  The Company intends to make an application for termination of registration of its Common Stock as promptly as possible after filing the Certificates of Amendment.  Termination of the registration of the Common Stock under the Exchange Act would substantially reduce the information required to be furnished by the Company to its shareholders and to the SEC and would make certain provisions of the Exchange Act, such as the filing of annual and quarterly reports and proxy statements, no longer applicable to the Company.  However, the Company currently intends to continue to provide shareholders with summary annual audited financial statements and quarterly financial information, and periodic updates when determined to be appropriate by the Board with respect to material events.  This information will be available on the Company’s website at www.dgtholdings.com.  This information will not be as detailed or extensive as the information the Company has been required to file with the SEC or has provided to its shareholders in the past.

With respect to the executive officers and directors of the Company, upon termination of registration of the Common Stock under the Exchange Act, the executive officers, directors and other affiliates would no longer be subject to many of the reporting requirements and restrictions of the Exchange Act, including the reporting and short-swing profit recapture provisions of Section 16 thereof, as well as many of the provisions of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002.  Upon termination of Exchange Act registration, the Company will continue to be subject to the general anti-fraud provisions of federal and applicable state securities laws.

Benefits.  The Reverse/Forward Stock Split is expected to result in the following benefits to the Company, its Continuing Shareholders and Cashed Out Shareholders:

· The termination of the Company’s reporting obligations under the Exchange Act will result in a reduction in the Company’s previously estimated costs to be incurred in the future.  The Company expects to use any amounts saved as a result of termination of Exchange Act registration for general corporate purposes, including acquisitions.

· The Reverse/Forward Stock Split affords shareholders owning of record fewer than 5,000 shares of Common Stock the opportunity to realize fair value for their shares.  In the absence of the Reverse/Forward Stock Split, even if a more active trading market developed for the Common Stock, such holders would nonetheless likely realize less net value for their shares since the sale of their shares would ordinarily involve disproportionately high brokerage commissions.

17

· The percentage ownership of Common Stock of the Continuing Shareholders of the Company following the Reverse/Forward Stock Split will increase slightly due to the repurchase of fractional shares by the Company.

Steel Holdings and other Continuing Shareholders will be beneficiaries of the Company’s future use of operating loss carry forwards.  As it is not possible to predict how, when or if these operating loss carry forwards will be used, or if they can be applied at all, it is not practicable to quantify this benefit to Steel Holdings or other Continuing Shareholders.  As of July 28, 2012, the Company had approximately $32.4 million of federal net operating loss carryforwards and expects that the Company, Steel Holdings and other Continuing Shareholders will be able to receive a benefit if such operating loss carryforwards are applied to future income.

Detriments.  The Reverse/Forward Stock Split is expected to result in the following detriments to the Company, its Continuing Shareholders and Cashed Out Shareholders:

· If the Reverse/Forward Stock Split is approved, it is estimated that approximately 349 shareholders of record, owning in the aggregate approximately 350,000 shares of Common Stock, will cease to be shareholders of the Company and will no longer hold an equity interest in the Company.  Such shareholders, therefore, will not share in any future increases in the Company’s net assets or stock price, if any, and will no longer have the right to vote on any corporate matter.  Such shareholders also will be deprived of the ability to sell their shares of Common Stock at a time and for a price of their choosing.

· Termination of registration of Common Stock under the Exchange Act will reduce substantially the information required to be furnished by the Company to its shareholders and will make certain provisions of the Exchange Act, such as the short-swing profit recovery provisions of Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act, the requirement of furnishing a proxy or information statement in connection with certain shareholder meetings pursuant to Section 14(a) of the Exchange Act, and the requirements of Rule 13e-3 promulgated by the SEC under the Exchange Act with respect to “going private” transactions no longer applicable to the Company and its executive officers and directors. In addition, termination of such registration will deprive “affiliates” of the Company of the ability to dispose of securities of the Company pursuant to Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act.

· Shareholders owning 5,000 or more shares of Common Stock prior to the Reverse/Forward Stock Split will not be entitled to receive any cash payment for their shares and will continue as shareholders of the Company.

Beneficial Owners of the Company Common Stock.  We intend to treat shareholders holding our Common Stock in street name in the same manner as record holders.  Prior to the effective date of the Reverse/Forward Stock Split, we will conduct an inquiry of all brokers, banks and other nominees that hold shares of our Common Stock in “street name,” ask them to provide us with information on how many fractional shares will be cashed-out, and request that they effect the Reverse/Forward Stock Split for their beneficial holders.  However, these banks, brokers and other nominees may have different procedures than registered shareholders for processing the Reverse/Forward Stock Split.  As a result, a shareholder owning 5,000 or more shares of Common Stock may nevertheless have those shares cashed-out if the shareholder holds shares in a combination of street name accounts and record holder accounts, or holds shares in separate accounts in several brokerage firms.  If you are in this situation and desire to remain one of our shareholders after the Reverse/Forward Stock Split, you may consolidate your holdings into one brokerage account or record holder account prior to the effective date of the Reverse/Forward Stock Split.  Conversely, if you hold an account with less than 5,000 shares in street name and want to ensure that your shares are cashed-out, you may want to change the manner in which your shares are held from street name into a record holder account in your own name so that you will be a record owner of the shares.

18

Directors and Officers.  The directors and officers of the Company immediately prior to the Reverse/Forward Stock Split will remain the directors and officers of the Company immediately following the effectiveness of the Reverse/Forward Stock Split.

Federal Income Tax Consequences

Summarized below are the material federal income tax consequences to the Company and to shareholders resulting from the Reverse/Forward Stock Split.  This summary is based on the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), the Treasury Regulations (the “Regulations”) issued pursuant thereto, and published rulings and court decisions in effect as of the date hereof, all of which are subject to change.  This summary does not take into account possible changes in such laws or interpretations, including amendments to the Code, applicable statutes, Regulations and proposed Regulations or changes in judicial or administrative rulings, some of which may have retroactive effect.  No assurance can be given that any such changes will not adversely affect the federal income tax consequences of the Reverse/Forward Stock Split.

This summary does not address all aspects of the possible federal income tax consequences of the Reverse/Forward Stock Split and is not intended as tax advice to any person or entity.  In particular, and without limiting the foregoing, this summary does not consider the federal income tax consequences to the Company’s shareholders in light of their individual investment circumstances nor to shareholders subject to special treatment under the federal income tax laws (for example, tax exempt entities, retirement plans, mutual funds, partnerships or other entities classified as partnerships for U.S. federal income tax purposes (and investors therein), financial institutions, life insurance companies, regulated investment companies, taxpayers subject to the alternative minimum tax or who have elected mark-to-market accounting, U.S. expatriates or former long-term residents, and foreign taxpayers), or who hold, have held, or will hold stock as part of a straddle, hedging, or conversion, constructive sale or other integrated transaction for federal income tax purposes. In addition, this summary does not address any consequences of the Reverse/Forward Stock Split under any state, local, or foreign tax laws.

If an entity that is classified as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes holds Common Stock, the U.S. federal income tax treatment of a partner will generally depend on the status of the partner and upon the activities of the partnership.  Partners in such partnerships should consult their own tax advisors as to the particular U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Reverse/Forward Stock Split.

The Company will not obtain a ruling from the Internal Revenue Service or an opinion of counsel regarding the federal income tax consequences to the Company’s shareholders as a result of the Reverse/Forward Stock Split.  Accordingly, you are encouraged to consult your own tax advisor regarding the specific tax consequences of the proposed transaction, including the application and effect of state, local, and foreign income and other tax laws.

This summary assumes that you are one of the following: (i) a citizen or resident of the United States, (ii) a domestic corporation, (iii) an estate the income of which is subject to United States federal income tax regardless of its source, or (iv) a trust if a United States court can exercise primary supervision over the trust’s administration and one or more United States persons are authorized to control all substantial decisions of the trust.  This summary also assumes that you have held and will continue to hold your shares as capital assets for federal income tax purposes.

You should consult your tax advisor as to the particular federal, state, local, foreign, and other tax consequences applicable to your specific circumstances.

19

The Company believes that the Reverse/Forward Stock Split will be treated as a tax-free “recapitalization” for federal income tax purposes.  This should result in no material federal income tax consequences to the Company or to its shareholders who do not receive cash in the transaction.  However, if you are receiving cash in the transaction, the payment to you will be the last distribution you will receive from the Company and you may recognize gain or loss for federal income tax purposes.

Shareholders who do not receive cash in connection with the Reverse/Forward Stock Split

If you (1) continue to hold stock directly immediately after the Reverse/Forward Stock Split and (2) you receive no cash as a result of the Reverse/Forward Stock Split, you should not recognize any gain or loss in the Reverse/Forward Stock Split for federal income tax purposes.  Your aggregate adjusted tax basis in your shares of stock held immediately after the Reverse/Forward Stock Split will be equal to your aggregate adjusted tax basis in your shares of stock held immediately prior to the Reverse Stock Split and you will have the same holding period in your stock as you had in such stock immediately prior to the Reverse/Forward Stock Split.

Shareholders who receive cash in connection with the Reverse/Forward Stock Split

If you receive cash in lieu of fractional shares as a result of the Reverse/Forward Stock Split, the cash you receive will be the last distribution you will receive from the Company with respect to the cashed out stock.  You will generally recognize capital gain or loss on the Reverse/Forward Stock Split for federal income tax purposes, with such gain or loss measured by the difference between the cash you receive for your cashed out stock and your aggregate adjusted tax basis in such stock.

Capital Gain and Loss

For individuals, net capital gain (defined generally as your total capital gains in excess of capital losses for the year) recognized upon the sale of capital assets that have been held for more than 12 months generally will be subject to tax at a rate not to exceed 15%. (for tax year 2012), and scheduled to increase to a rate not to exceed 20% for tax year 2013.   For certain taxpayers, capital gains may also become subject to the 3.8% Medicare tax in 2013. Net capital gain recognized from the sale of capital assets that have been held for 12 months or less will continue to be subject to tax at ordinary income tax rates.  Capital gain recognized by a corporate taxpayer will continue to be subject to tax at the ordinary income tax rates applicable to corporations.  There are limitations on the deductibility of capital losses.

Backup Withholding

Shareholders may be required to provide their social security or other taxpayer identification numbers (or, in some instances, additional information) to the Company’s transfer agent in connection with the Reverse/Forward Stock Split to avoid backup withholding requirements that might otherwise apply.  The letter of transmittal will require each shareholder to deliver such information when the Common Stock certificates are surrendered following the Effective Date of the Reverse/Forward Stock Split.  Failure to provide such information may result in backup withholding at a rate of 28%.

As explained above, the amounts paid to you as a result of the Reverse/Forward Stock Split may result in capital gain income to you depending on your individual circumstances.  You should consult your tax advisor as to the particular federal, state, local, foreign, and other tax consequences of the transaction, in light of your specific circumstances.

20

The preceding discussion of the material U.S. Federal Income Tax consequences of the Reverse/Forward Stock Split is general and does not include all consequences to every shareholder under federal, state, local, or foreign tax laws.  Accordingly, each shareholder should consult its own tax advisor as to the particular tax consequences to it of the reverse stock split, including the applicability and effect of any state, local, or foreign tax laws, and of any proposed changes in applicable law.

INFORMATION ABOUT DGT HOLDINGS CORP.

The Company

The Company, a New York corporation, was incorporated in 1954.  We sold Villa on November 3, 2011 and our power conversion business operated by RFI on August 16, 2012.  Prior to these sales, we were a leader in developing, manufacturing and marketing medical and dental imaging systems and power conversion subsystems and components worldwide.  Our products included stationary and portable medical and dental diagnostic imaging systems and electronic systems and components such as electronic filters, transformers and capacitors.  We currently have a real estate business that includes the leasing of property owned by the Company through its subsidiaries in Milan, Italy and Bay Shore, New York.  In addition to the real estate business, our business is expected to consist primarily of capital redeployment and identification of new profitable operations where we can utilize our existing working capital and maximize the use of our net operating losses.

Market Information; Dividends

Effective May 11, 2007, our Common Stock commenced trading on the Over the Counter “OTC” Bulletin Board under the symbol “DGTC.OB”.  Prior to that, shares of our Common Stock had been traded on the “pink sheets,” under the symbol “DGTC.PK”.  The OTC is an over-the-counter market which provides significantly less liquidity than established stock exchanges, and quotes for stocks included in the OTC are not listed in the financial sections of newspapers as are those for established stock exchanges.

As of January 8, 2013, there were approximately 3,879,468 shares outstanding of our Common Stock.  The following table shows the high and low sales prices per share of our Common Stock for the past eight quarters, as reported by the over the counter market.

In addition, none of our directors or executive officers have purchased shares of our Common Stock in the past two years except for the grant of equity compensation by us to our directors and executive officers in the form of restricted stock or stock options.

Financial Information

The Company’s unaudited historical financial statements contained in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended October 27, 2012 (the “Q1 2013 Report”) are incorporated by reference in this proxy statement.

The Company’s audited consolidated balance sheets as of July 28, 2012 and July 30, 2011, and the related consolidated statements of operations, shareholders’ equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended July 28, 2012 have not been provided in this proxy statement as the Company has determined that this information is not material for the exercise of prudent judgment in regard to the Reverse/Forward Stock Split.  The Company’s operations currently consist of leasing two facilities that were not included in the assets of the two separate businesses that the Company sold.  The Company’s business, now reported as one reportable segment, in addition to management of the real estate business, is expected to consist primarily of capital redeployment and identification of new profitable operations where it can utilize its existing working capital and maximize the use of the Company’s net operating losses.

Pro Forma Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

The following unaudited pro forma consolidated balance sheet as of October 27, 2012 and the unaudited pro forma consolidated statements of operations for the fiscal year ended July 28, 2012 and for the three months ended October 27, 2012, show the pro forma effect of the Reverse/Forward Stock Split and for the year ended July 28, 2012, the August 16, 2012 sale of the Company’s Power Conversion Business.  The historical amounts as of and for the three months ended October 27, 2012 were derived from the Company’s unaudited consolidated financial statements that were included in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended October 27, 2012.  The historical amounts for the fiscal year ended July 28, 2012 were derived from the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements that were included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended July 28, 2012.

The pro forma information below gives effect of the Reverse/Forward Stock Split based on shares anticipated to be repurchased and $105,000 of non-recurring expenses incurred to effect the Reverse/Forward Stock Split.  The Reverse/Forward Stock Split assumes that 350,000 shares are purchased at a price of $13.50 per share (an aggregate of $4,725,000, subject to any applicable U.S. federal, state and local withholding tax).  Pro forma adjustments to the pro forma consolidated balance sheet are computed as if the Reverse/Forward Stock Split had occurred at October 27, 2012, while the pro forma adjustments related to the consolidated statements of operations are computed as if the Reverse/Forward Stock Split had occurred at July 31, 2011.  Anticipated cost savings resulting from the Reverse/Forward Stock Split are not reflected in the pro forma financial information.

On August 16, 2012, after obtaining the required two-thirds vote approval by its shareholders, the Company completed the sale of its Power Conversion business (the “Power Conversion Business”) operated by RFI Corporation (“RFI”) to EMS Development Corporation (“EMS”), a New York corporation and an affiliate of Ultra Electronics Defense, Inc. (“UEDI”), pursuant to the asset purchase agreement dated as of June 6, 2012, by and among UEDI, the Company and RFI.  In consideration for the sale of the Power Conversion Business, EMS paid an aggregate of $12,500,000 in cash.  $1,250,000 of such amount is being held in escrow to serve as security for payments in satisfaction of certain of the Company’s and RFI’s indemnification obligations and $237,000 is being held in escrow to cover any potential net working capital adjustment.  The working capital adjustment is expected to be $480,000 unfavorable to the Company and is reflected as a reduction to the escrow cash balance, thereby netting $1,007,000 (classified as restricted cash in the Company’s financial statements).  The Company incurred $709,000 of expenses (primarily severance and legal costs) related to the sale which have been included in the computation of gain on the sale.  The Company retained the RFI facility and entered into a lease with EMS.  The lease has a term of 5 years, with payments of $33,000 per month net to RFI, terminable by EMS, as the tenant, upon 30 days prior written notice.  The pro forma adjustments related to the consolidated statement of operations for the year ended July 28, 2012 are computed as if the sale of the Power Conversion Business and the commencement of the rental of its building had occurred at July 31, 2011.

The pro forma information is not necessarily indicative of what the Company’s financial position or results of operations actually would have been if the Reverse/Forward Stock Split and sale of the Power Conversion Business had occurred as of the dates presented, or of the Company’s financial position or results of operations in the future.

GENERAL INFORMATION ABOUT THE ANNUAL MEETING

Place and Time

The Annual Meeting will be held at the offices of Olshan Frome Wolosky LLP, Park Avenue Tower, 65 East 55th Street, New York, New York 10022 on Wednesday, February 27, 2013 at 9:00 a.m., Eastern time.

Record Date and Voting

The Board fixed the close of business on Tuesday, January 8, 2013, as the Record Date for the determination of holders of outstanding shares of the Company entitled to notice of and to vote on all matters presented at the Annual Meeting.  Such shareholders will be entitled to one vote for each share held on each matter submitted to a vote at the Annual Meeting.  On the Record Date, there were 3,879,468 shares of the Company’s Common Stock issued and outstanding, each of which is entitled to one vote on each matter to be voted upon.  Shareholders may vote in person or by proxy.

Purposes of the Annual Meeting

The purpose of the Annual Meeting is to consider proposals (1) to approve, subject to final action by the Board, an amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation, whereby the Company will effect the Reverse Stock Split, which is a 1-for-5,000 reverse stock split such that shareholders owning of record fewer than 5,000 shares of Common Stock will have such shares cancelled and converted into the right to receive $13.50 for each share of Common Stock held of record prior to the Reverse Stock Split; (2) to approve, subject to shareholder approval of the proposal described in (1) above and final action by the Board, to take effect immediately following the Reverse Stock Split, an amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation whereby the Company will effect the Forward Stock Split, which is a 5,000-for-1 forward stock split of our outstanding Common Stock; (3) to elect four (4) members of the Board to serve until the next annual meeting of shareholders and until their successors have been duly elected and qualify; (4) to consider and approve an advisory resolution regarding the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers; (5) to ratify the appointment of BDO USA, LLP as our independent registered public accountants for the fiscal year ending August 3, 2013; and (6) to transact such other business as may properly be brought before the Annual Meeting or any adjournment or postponement thereof.

Quorum

The required quorum for the transaction of business at the Annual Meeting is a majority of the votes eligible to be cast by holders of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding on the Record Date.  Shares that are voted “FOR,” “AGAINST” or “WITHHELD FROM” a matter are treated as being present at the Annual Meeting for purposes of establishing a quorum and are also treated as shares entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting (the “Votes Cast”) with respect to such matter.

Abstentions and Broker Non-Votes

Broker “non-votes” and the shares of Common Stock as to which a shareholder abstains are included for purposes of determining whether a quorum of shares of Common Stock is present at a meeting.  A broker “non-vote” occurs when a nominee holding shares of Common Stock for the beneficial owner does not vote on a particular proposal because the nominee does not have discretionary voting power with respect to that item and has not received instructions from the beneficial owner.  Neither broker “non-votes” nor abstentions are included in the tabulation of the voting results on Proposals One through Five and, therefore, they will not be counted as votes “FOR” or “AGAINST” such proposals.

27

Voting of Proxies

The Board of the Company is asking for your proxy.  Giving the Board your proxy means you authorize it to vote your shares at the Annual Meeting in the manner you direct.  You may vote for all, some or none of the director nominees.  You may also vote for or against the other proposals or abstain from voting.  All valid proxies received prior to the Annual Meeting will be voted.  All shares represented by a proxy will be voted, and where a shareholder specifies by means of the proxy a choice with respect to any matter to be acted upon, the shares will be voted in accordance with the specification so made.  If no choice is indicated on the proxy, the shares will be voted “FOR” Proposals One and Two, “FOR” the Company’s four (4) director nominees, “FOR” proposals Four and Five, and as the proxy holders may determine in their discretion with respect to any other matters that properly come before the Annual Meeting.  A shareholder giving a proxy has the power to revoke his or her proxy, at any time prior to the time it is voted, by delivering to the Secretary of the Company a written instrument that revokes the proxy or a validly executed proxy with a later date, or by attending the Annual Meeting and voting in person.  The affirmative vote of a majority of the outstanding shares of Common Stock entitled to vote thereon is required to approve proposals One and Two. The directors receiving a plurality of Votes Cast will be elected to fill the seats of our Board.  The affirmative vote of a majority of the Votes Cast is required to approve proposals Four and Five.  As of the Record Date, there were 3,879,468 shares of the Company’s Common Stock issued and outstanding.  The form of proxy accompanying this proxy statement confers discretionary authority upon the named proxyholders with respect to amendments or variations to the matters identified in the accompanying Notice of Annual Meeting and with respect to any other matters which may properly come before the Annual Meeting.  As of the date of this proxy statement, management of the Company knows of no such amendment or variation or of any matters expected to come before the Annual Meeting which are not referred to in the accompanying Notice of Annual Meeting.

You may vote using any of the following methods:

· Proxy card or voting instruction card. Be sure to complete, sign and date the card and return it in the prepaid envelope.

· By telephone or over the Internet. If you are a shareholder of record, you may vote by telephone or over the Internet by following the instructions on your proxy card.  If you hold shares in street name, you will receive separate voting instructions from your bank, broker or other nominee and may vote by telephone or over the Internet if they offer that alternative.  Although most brokers, banks and nominees offer telephone and Internet voting, availability and the specific procedures vary.

· In person at the Annual Meeting. All shareholders may vote in person at the Annual Meeting.  You may also be represented by another person at the Annual Meeting by executing a proper proxy designating that person.  If you hold shares in street name, you must obtain a legal proxy from your bank, broker or other nominee and present it to the inspector of election with your ballot when you vote at the Annual Meeting.

28

Attendance at the Annual Meeting

Only holders of Common Stock, their proxy holders and the Company’s invited guests may attend the Annual Meeting.  If you wish to attend the Annual Meeting in person but you hold your shares through someone else, such as a stockbroker, you must bring proof of your ownership and identification with a photo at the Annual Meeting.  For example, you could bring an account statement showing that you beneficially owned shares of Common Stock of the Company as of the Record Date as acceptable proof of ownership.

Solicitation of Proxies

To the extent necessary to ensure sufficient representation at the Annual Meeting, proxies may be solicited by personal interview, mail, e-mail, telephone, facsimile or other means of electronic communication by officers, directors and regular employees of the Company, who will receive no additional compensation therefore.  The expenses of this solicitation will be paid by the Company.  The Company does not anticipate utilizing the services of any outside firm for the solicitation of proxies for the Annual Meeting.   The Company will pay persons holding stock in their names or in the names of their nominees, but not owning such stock beneficially (such as brokerage houses, banks and other fiduciaries), for the reasonable expense of forwarding soliciting material to their principals.

Certain Financial Information

Please take note that the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended July 28, 2012 (the “2012 Annual Report”) (without exhibits), Q1 2013 Report and the Company’s audited consolidated balance sheets as of July 28, 2012 and July 30, 2011, and the related consolidated statements of operations, shareholders’ equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended July 28, 2012 are available on the Internet along with this proxy statement at www.proxyvote.com.

29

PROPOSALS ONE AND TWO

AMENDMENTS TO THE COMPANY'S CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION TO EFFECT A 1-FOR-5,000 REVERSE STOCK SPLIT AND TO EFFECT A 5,000-FOR-1 FORWARD STOCK SPLIT

General

The Board, acting on behalf of the Company, has unanimously adopted a resolution approving, and recommending to shareholders for approval, amendments to the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation to effect the proposed 1-for-5,000 Reverse Stock Split, immediately followed by a 5,000-for-1 Forward Stock Split.  The form of amendments are attached hereto as Annex A-1 and Annex A-2. Although both the Reverse Stock Split and the Forward Stock Split will be voted on separately, the Company will not effect either the Reverse Stock Split or the Forward Stock Split unless both proposals are approved by shareholders.

If the shareholders approve the Reverse Stock Split and Forward Stock Split, subject to final action by the Board, the Company will file the amendments to the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation with the Secretary of State of the State of New York.  The Reverse/Forward Stock Split will become effective on the Effective Date, which is the date the amendments are filed with the Secretary of State of the State of New York, or such later date as is specified in the filing.  The Company expects the amendments to become effective as soon as practicable following the Annual Meeting.

The Company had 3,879,468 shares of Common Stock outstanding as of the Record Date.  The Company estimates that approximately $4,725,000 will be paid in cash in lieu of fractional shares after the Reverse Stock Split.

Payment for Fractional Shares

Within ten days after the Effective Date, the Company will mail to the Cashed Out Shareholders a notice of the filing of the certificates of amendment and a letter of transmittal containing instructions with respect to the submission of shares of Common Stock to the Company.  No certificates or scrip representing fractional shares of Common Stock shall be issued in connection with the Reverse/Forward Stock Split.  Instead, shareholders holding of record fewer than 5,000 shares of Common Stock immediately prior to the Reverse/Forward Stock Split, upon surrender of their old certificates, will receive cash in lieu of the fractional share of Common Stock resulting from the Reverse Stock Split. Such cash will be paid within approximately ten days following surrender of the old certificates.  The price payable by the Company for fractional shares will be determined by multiplying the number of shares of Common Stock held of record by each Cashed Out Shareholder immediately before the Effective Date by $13.50.

Holders of fractional shares will be entitled to receive, and the Company will be obligated to make payment for, cash in lieu of fractional shares only by transmitting stock certificate(s) for shares of Common Stock to the Company, together with the properly executed and completed letter of transmittal. Cashed Out Shareholders may incur a fee in connection with insuring the package (with share certificate and Letter of Transmittal) that is sent to the Company's transfer agent.  Cashed Out Shareholders who have lost their certificate would incur an additional fee for a surety bond, which is a minimum of $25.00 or one and a half percent of the fair market value for the lost shares.

Any holder of record of fewer than 5,000 shares of Common Stock who desires to retain an equity interest in the Company after the Effective Date may do so by purchasing, prior to the Effective Date, a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock such that the total number of shares held of record in such holder’s name immediately prior to the Reverse/Forward Stock Split is equal to or greater than 5,000.  Due to the limited trading market for the Company’s Common Stock it is possible that a shareholder desiring to retain an equity interest in the Company may not be able to purchase enough shares to retain an equity interest in the Company at a fair price or at all.

30

We intend to treat shareholders holding shares of our Common Stock in street name in the same manner as registered shareholders whose shares are registered in their names.  Prior to the Effective Date, we will conduct an inquiry of all brokers, banks and other nominees that hold shares of our Common Stock in street name.  We will ask them to effect the Reverse/Forward Stock Split for their beneficial holders holding shares of our Common Stock in street name.  We will rely on these brokers, banks and other nominees to provide us with information on how many fractional shares will be cashed-out.  However, these brokers, banks and other nominees may have different procedures than registered shareholders for processing the Reverse/Forward Stock Split.  If you hold your shares in street name with a bank, broker or other third party, and if you have any questions in this regard, we encourage you to contact your bank, broker or nominee.

Exchange of Certificates

If you are a Continuing Shareholder with a stock certificate representing your shares, your stock certificate(s) must be exchanged for a new stock certificate(s) that will bear a new CUSIP number. The Company’s transfer agent will furnish shareholders with the necessary materials and instructions to effect the surrender promptly following the Effective Date of the Reverse/Forward Stock Split. The letter of transmittal will direct how old certificates are to be surrendered for new certificates. Shareholders must complete and sign the letter of transmittal and return it with their stock certificate(s) to the transfer agent in accordance with the instructions set forth in the transmittal letter before they can receive their new stock certificate(s) for those shares. The letter of transmittal will also contain instructions in the event that your certificate(s) has been lost, destroyed, or mutilated. Do not send your stock certificates to us, and do not send them to the transfer agent until you have received a transmittal letter and followed the instructions in the letter of transmittal.

Vote Required

Approval of the Reverse Stock Split and the Forward Stock Split will require approval by a majority of the outstanding shares of Common Stock entitled to vote thereon.  Accordingly, the Reverse Stock Split and the Forward Stock Split will be approved if at least 1,939,735 shares of Common Stock are voted in favor of the Reverse Stock Split and the Forward Stock Split.  Following this shareholder approval, our Board will determine when, and if, to file the amendments with the Secretary of State of the State of New York.  At this time, the Company believes that a majority of the shares entitled to vote thereon will be voted in favor of the Reverse Stock Split and the Forward Stock Split.

Appraisal and Dissenters’ Rights

No appraisal or dissenters’ rights are available under New York law or the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation or Amended and Restated By-Laws, as amended (the “By-Laws”), to shareholders who dissent from the Reverse Stock Split or the Forward Stock Split.  The Company will not independently provide its shareholders with any such right.

Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration; Expenses of Transaction

Since we do not know how many record and beneficial holders of our Common Stock will receive cash for their shares in the Reverse/Forward Stock Split, we do not know the exact cost of the Reverse/Forward Stock Split.  However, based on information that we have received as of December 13, 2012 from our transfer agent, Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, with regard to the size of holdings of those of you who may hold shares in street name, as well as our estimates of other expenses, we believe that the total cash requirement of the Reverse/Forward Stock Split to us will be approximately $4,830,000, which amount includes the following:

31

Legal	$	15,000
Valuation Report		65,000
Payment for Fractional Shares		4,725,000
Transfer Agent Costs		3,000
SEC Filing, Printing and Mailing Costs		22,000
Total Expenses	$	4,830,000

During the Company’s fiscal year ended July 28, 2012, the Board held nine (9) regularly scheduled and special meetings.  During this period, all of the directors attended or participated in more than 75% of the aggregate of the total number of meetings of the Board (held during the period for which he has been a director) and the total number of meetings held by all committees of the Board on which each such director served (during the periods during which such director served on such committee).

Each director is expected to make reasonable efforts to attend Board meetings, meetings of committees of which such director is a member and the Annual Meeting of Shareholders.  All of the current Board members who were elected at the last Annual Meeting of Shareholders attended such meeting.

The Company has three standing committees:  the Audit Committee (the “Audit Committee”), the Compensation Committee (the “Compensation Committee”), and the Nominating and Governance Committee (the “Nominating Committee”).  Each of these committees has a written charter approved by the Board.  A copy of each charter can be found under the “Investors” section of our website at www.dgtholdings.com.

The members of the committees are identified in the following table:

* Independent.  In assessing the independence of our directors, our Board has reviewed and analyzed the standards for independence under the Listing Rules of the NASDAQ Stock Market, including Rule 5605, and applicable SEC regulations.  Under the Listing Rules of the NASDAQ Stock Market, we would be considered a “controlled company” as of July 2011, as more than 50% of our voting power is held by Steel Holdings.  As a controlled company, among other things, we would be exempt from the requirement under the Listing Rules of the NASDAQ Stock Market that we have a majority of independent directors.

+ Mr. Avila resigned from the Board effective July 24, 2012.

# Mr. Henderson resigned from the Board effective December 15, 2011.

^ Mr. Quicke resigned from the Board effective October 8, 2012.

36

Audit Committee

The Audit Committee is responsible for reviewing the financial information that will be provided to shareholders and others, the systems of internal controls, which management and the Board have established, the performance and selection of independent auditors, and the Company’s audit and financial reporting processes.  The Audit Committee held five (5) meetings during the last fiscal year.  Although the Company is currently not listed on any exchange, General McPeak is considered to be an “independent director” as defined in Rule 5605 of the Marketplace Rules of the NASDAQ Stock Market.  The Board has determined that it does not have an “audit committee financial expert” as defined in Item 407(d)(5) of Regulation S-K serving on its Audit Committee.  The Board believes that an audit committee financial expert is not necessary as the Audit Committee has the power and authority to engage outside experts as it deems appropriate to provide it with advice on matters related to its responsibilities.

Compensation Committee

The basic responsibility of the Compensation Committee is to review the performance and development of management in achieving corporate goals and objectives and to ensure that the Company’s senior executives are compensated effectively in a manner consistent with the Company’s strategy, competitive practice, and the requirements of the appropriate regulatory bodies.  Toward that end, the Compensation Committee oversees all of the Company’s compensation, equity and employee benefit plans and payments, including the Company’s 2007 Plan and DGTC Plan (each as defined herein).  The Compensation Committee reviews and approves the executive compensation and benefits programs for all the Company’s executive officers annually, usually in the first quarter of each fiscal year.  Any options that are granted as a result of the Compensation Committee’s executive compensation review and approval process are only granted upon full Board approval of the option grant.  The strike price of such options is set at the closing price of the Company’s stock on the day the options were granted.

With respect to the Chief Executive Officer, the Compensation Committee reviews and approves corporate goals and objectives, evaluates the Chief Executive Officer’s performance against these objectives, and based on that evaluation makes recommendations to the Board regarding the Chief Executive Officer’s compensation level, or in the case of our current Chief Executive Officer, the terms of Services Agreement (as defined below).  Further information regarding the amendment to the Services Agreement is located in the section below entitled, “Executive and Director Compensation--Elements of Compensation-- Management Services Agreement and Base Salary.”

The Chief Executive Officer participates, together with the Compensation Committee, in the executive compensation process by:

· approving perquisites valued at less than $10,000 per year (all perquisites valued at greater than this amount are still approved by the Compensation Committee);

· participating in informal discussions with the Compensation Committee regarding satisfaction of performance criteria by executive officers, other than the Chief Executive Officer;

· providing the Board with recommendations as to who should participate in the Company’s 2007 Plan (as defined below) and the size of option grants or equity awards to such participants; and

· assigning annual budget goals and other objectives that determine bonus awards for certain executive officers.

37

Neither the Compensation Committee nor the Company’s management engaged a compensation consultant in determining or recommending the amount or form of executive or director compensation during the fiscal year ended July 28, 2012.

The Compensation Committee held three (3) meetings during the last fiscal year and also included compensation discussions and equity grant award approvals on a routine basis during Board meetings held during the last fiscal year.  Although the Company is not listed on any exchange, General McPeak, the member of the Compensation Committee, is an “independent director” as defined in Rule 5605 of the Listing Rules of the NASDAQ Stock Market, and an “outside director” as defined in Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”).

Nominating Committee

The Nominating Committee is responsible for recommending to the full Board candidates for election to the Board.  This committee held two (2) meetings during the last fiscal year.  The Nominating Committee considers nominees proposed by shareholders.  To recommend a prospective nominee for the Nominating Committee’s consideration, shareholders should submit the candidate’s name and qualifications to the corporate secretary in writing to the following address:  DGT Holdings Corp., c/o Steel Partners Holdings L.P., 590 Madison Avenue, 32nd Floor, New York, New York 10022, Attn:  Terry R. Gibson.  General McPeak is the only member of this committee who is an “independent director” as defined in Rule 5605 of the Listing Rules of the NASDAQ Stock Market.

In considering Board candidates, the Nominating Committee takes into consideration the Company’s Corporate Governance Guidelines, the Company’s policy regarding shareholder recommended director candidates, as set forth above, and all other factors that it deems appropriate, including, but not limited to, professional and personal ethics and values, experience at the policy-making level in business, commitment to enhancing shareholder value, current or potential conflict of interest, the availability to devote sufficient time to carry out their duties and the ability to provide insight and practical wisdom based on past experience.  Although the Company does not have a formal diversity policy relating to the identification and evaluation of nominees, the Committee, in addition to reviewing a candidate’s background and accomplishments, reviews candidates in the context of the current composition of the Board and the evolving needs of the Company’s businesses.  It is the Board’s policy that at all times at least a majority of its members meet the standards of independence promulgated by NASDAQ and the SEC and as set forth in the Company’s Corporate Governance Guidelines.  Additionally, the Nominating Committee will consider the number of boards on which the candidate already serves when assessing whether the candidate has the appropriate time to devote to Board service.

Except as set forth above, the Nominating Committee does not currently have a formal policy regarding the handling or consideration of director candidate recommendations received from a shareholder, or a formal process for identifying and evaluating nominees for directors (including nominees recommended by shareholders).  These issues will be considered by the Nominating Committee, which will then make a recommendation to the Board.

Board Leadership Structure

The Board does not have a policy regarding the separation of the roles of Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board as the Board believes it is in the best interests of the Company to make that determination based upon the position and direction of the Company and the membership of the Board.  The Board has determined at this time that the Company’s Chairman should not be the Company’s Chief Executive Officer.

38

Board Role in Risk Oversight

Management has the primary responsibility for identifying and managing the risks facing the Company, subject to the oversight of the Board.  The Board strives to effectively oversee the Company’s enterprise-wide risk management in a way that balances managing risks while enhancing the long-term value of the Company for the benefit of the shareholders.  The Board understands that its focus on effective risk oversight is critical to setting the Company’s tone and culture towards effective risk management.  To administer its oversight function, the Board seeks to understand the Company’s risk philosophy by having discussions with management to establish a mutual understanding of the Company’s overall appetite for risk.  The Board maintains an active dialogue with management about existing risk management processes and how management identifies, assesses and manages the Company’s most significant risk exposures.  The Board expects frequent updates from management about the Company’s most significant risks so as to enable it to evaluate whether management is responding appropriately.

The Board relies on each of its committees to help oversee the risk management responsibilities relating to the functions performed by such committees.  The Audit Committee periodically discusses with management the Company’s major financial risk exposures and the steps management has taken to monitor and control such exposures, including the Company’s risk assessment and risk management policies.  The Compensation Committee helps the Board to identify the Company’s exposure to any risks potentially created by our compensation programs and practices.  The Nominating Committee oversees risks relating to the Company’s corporate compliance programs and assists the Board and management in promoting an organizational culture that encourages commitment to ethical conduct and a commitment to compliance with the law.  Each of these committees is required to make regular reports of its actions and recommendations to the Board, including recommendations to assist the Board with its overall risk oversight function.  The Board retains oversight responsibility for all subject matters not specifically assigned to a committee, including risks presented by the Company’s business strategy, competition, regulation, general industry trends, and capital structure and allocation.

EXECUTIVE AND DIRECTOR COMPENSATION

Elements of Compensation

1.  Management Services Agreement and Base Salary

Effective September 1, 2009 until October 1, 2011, we paid SP Corporate Services $30,000 per month for the services of John J. Quicke, our President and CEO, pursuant to the Services Agreement.  On October 1, 2011, the Company and SP Corporate Services entered into Amendment No. 1 to the Services Agreement to, among other things, provide for the services of Mark A. Zorko, the Chief Financial Officer and Secretary of the Company, and increase the monthly payment amount to $48,000.  Additionally, the Company reimbursed SP Corporate Services, Mr. Quicke, and Mr. Zorko for certain expenses, including but not limited to reasonable and necessary business expenses incurred on behalf of the Company.  See also “Proposal Three ─ Election of Directors ─ Certain Relationships and Related Transactions.”

Prior the amendment to the Services Agreement, Mr. Zorko was compensated pursuant to the Zorko Employment Agreement, as described below.  The Services Agreement and base salaries are reviewed annually by the Compensation Committee, but are not automatically increased annually.  The base salary for our former Chief Executive Officer and the former base salary of our former Chief Financial Officer are set forth in their employment agreements, which are described in more detail below.

2.  Annual Cash Bonuses

The purpose of the annual cash bonus is to provide a competitive annual cash incentive opportunity that rewards both the Company’s performance toward corporate goals and objectives and also individual achievements.  The annual bonus is a short-term annual incentive paid in cash pursuant to arrangements that cover all executive officers, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, and provide that a bonus will be paid upon achieving the Company’s annual budget goals.  For fiscal year 2011, the Compensation Committee determined that bonuses would be paid out upon the achievement of improvement of revenue and operating income as compared to fiscal year 2011 business plan with targets set for the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of 70% and 45% of their annual base salary respectively.  Incentive targets for fiscal year 2011 were partially achieved and as a result, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer received an annual bonus.  For fiscal year 2012, the Compensation Committee determined that discretionary cash bonuses be paid in the amount of $500,000 to Mr. Quicke and $100,000 to Mr. Zorko in recognition of their performance.

3.  Long Term Equity Incentives

A.  DGT Holdings Corp. Stock Option Plan

The purpose of the Company’s Amended and Restated Stock Option Plan (the “DGTC Plan”), is to provide for the granting of incentive stock options and non-qualified stock options to the Company’s executive officers, directors, employees and consultants.  The Compensation Committee administers the DGTC Plan.  Among other things, the Compensation Committee: (i) determines participants to whom options may be granted and the number of shares to be granted pursuant to each option, based upon the recommendation of our Chief Executive Officer;  (ii) determines the terms and conditions of any option under the DGTC Plan, including whether options will be incentive stock options, within the meaning of the Code, or non-qualified stock options; (iii) may vary the vesting schedule of options; and (iv) may suspend, terminate or modify the DGTC Plan.  Any Compensation Committee recommendations of awards, options or compensation levels for senior executive officers are approved by the entire Board, excluding any management directors.

46

Under the DGTC Plan, incentive stock options have an exercise price equal to the fair market value of the underlying stock as of the grant date and, unless earlier terminated, are exercisable for a period of ten (10) years from the grant date.  Non-qualified stock options may have an exercise price that is less than, equal to or more than the fair market value on the grant date and, unless earlier terminated, are exercisable for a period of up to ten (10) years from their grant date.

No options have been granted under the DGTC Plan since March 2007.

B.  Amended and Restated 2007 Incentive Stock Plan

The Amended and Restated 2007 Incentive Stock Plan (the “2007 Plan”) is designed to provide an incentive to, and to retain in the employ of the Company and any Subsidiary of the Company, within the meaning of Section 424(f) of the United States Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, directors, officers, consultants, advisors and employees with valuable training, experience and ability; to attract to the Company new directors, officers, consultants, advisors and employees whose services are considered valuable and to encourage the sense of proprietorship and to stimulate the active interest of such persons in the development and financial success of the Company and its Subsidiaries.

The 2007 Plan is administered by the Compensation Committee, which has full power and authority to designate recipients of options (as defined in the 2007 Plan) and restricted stock under the 2007 Plan and to determine the terms and conditions of the respective option and restricted stock agreements and to interpret the provisions and supervise the administration of the 2007 Plan.  The Compensation Committee also has the authority to designate which options granted under the 2007 Plan will be incentive options and which shall be nonqualified options.

For the fiscal year ended July 28, 2012, under the terms of the 2007 Plan, the Company did not make any stock option or restricted stock grants to (a) John J. Quicke or (b) Mark A. Zorko.

4.  Perquisites

The Company’s compensation program also includes other benefits and perquisites.  These benefits include annual matching contributions to certain executive officers’ 401(k) plan accounts, car allowances, living allowances and tax gross-ups to cover taxes on certain benefits.  We are selective in our use of perquisites, attempting to utilize perquisites that are within range of modest to competitive within our industry.  The Compensation Committee has delegated authority to the Chief Executive Officer to approve such perquisites for other executive officers, but the Compensation Committee must separately approve any perquisites that exceed $10,000 per year.

Mr. Quicke received no perquisites during fiscal year 2012 and Mr. Zorko received a car allowance equal to $1,150 in value during fiscal year 2012.

The Role of Shareholder Say-on-Pay Votes.  Although the advisory shareholder vote on executive compensation is non-binding, the Compensation Committee has considered and will continue to consider, the outcome of the vote when making future compensation decisions for named executive officers.  At our annual meeting of shareholders held on December 15, 2011, approximately 90.8% of the shareholders who voted on the “say-on-pay” proposal approved the compensation of our named executive officers, while only approximately 2.6% voted against (with approximately 6.5% voting to abstain).  The Compensation Committee believes that the shareholder vote strongly endorses the compensation philosophy of the Company.

47

Summary Compensation Table

The following table sets forth all compensation awarded to, paid or earned by the following type of executive officers for each of the Company’s last three completed fiscal years: (i) individuals who served as, or acted in the capacity of, the Company’s principal executive officer for the fiscal year ended July 28, 2012; (ii) individuals who served as, or acted in the capacity of, the Company’s principal financial officer for the fiscal year ended July 28, 2012; (iii) the Company’s three most highly compensated executive officers, other than the principal executive officer and principal financial officer, who were serving as executive officers at the end of the fiscal year ended July 28, 2012; and (iv) up to two additional individuals for whom disclosure would have been provided but for the fact that the individual was not serving as an executive officer of the Company at the end of the fiscal year ended July 28, 2012 (of which there were none).  We refer to these individuals collectively as our named executive officers.  Mr. Gibson became our President, Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and a director on October 8, 2012.  The Company anticipates that the Services Agreement will be amended to provide for the provision of Mr. Gibson’s services to the Company.

PROPOSAL FOUR

ADVISORY RESOLUTION REGARDING EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010 added Section 14A to the Exchange Act, which enables shareholders to vote to approve, on an advisory, non-binding basis, the compensation of the named executive officers as disclosed in this proxy statement in accordance with the SEC’s rules.

The Company’s executive compensation is designed to (a) attract, retain and reward executive officers who contribute to the Company’s success and (b) align executive compensation with the achievement of the Company’s business objectives and the creation of longer-term value for shareholders.  Please read the disclosure relating to executive compensation included under Proposal Three and under the “Executive and Director Compensation” section of this proxy statement for additional details about the Company’s executive compensation programs, including information about the fiscal year 2012 compensation of the named executive officers.

We are asking shareholders to indicate their support for the compensation of the executive officers named in the “Summary Compensation Table” included in this proxy statement (referred to as the “Named Executive Officers”).  This proposal, commonly known as a “say-on-pay” proposal, gives shareholders the opportunity to express their views on the Named Executive Officers’ compensation.  Accordingly, we will ask shareholders to vote “FOR” the following resolution at the Annual Meeting:

“RESOLVED, that the compensation paid to the company's Named Executive Officers, as disclosed pursuant to Item 402 of Regulation S–K, is hereby APPROVED.”

The say-on-pay vote is advisory, and therefore not binding on the Company, the Compensation Committee or our Board.  The Board and the Compensation Committee value the opinions of our shareholders and to the extent there is any significant vote against the Named Executive Officer compensation as disclosed in this proxy statement, we will consider our shareholders’ concerns and the Compensation Committee will evaluate whether any actions are necessary to address those concerns.  The Board has determined that the advisory vote regarding executive compensation will occur on an annual basis.

The approval of this resolution requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast at the Annual Meeting. While this vote is required by law, it will neither be binding on the Company or the Board, nor will it create or imply any change in the fiduciary duties of, or impose any additional fiduciary duty on, the Company or the Board.

Recommendation

THE BOARD RECOMMENDS A VOTE “FOR” THE ADVISORY RESOLUTION REGARDING THE COMPENSATION OF THE COMPANY’S NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICERS.

PROPOSAL FIVE

RATIFICATION OF THE APPOINTMENT OF BDO USA, LLP AS

THE COMPANY’S INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS FOR

THE FISCAL YEAR ENDING AUGUST 3, 2013.

Upon the recommendation of the Audit Committee, the Board has selected BDO USA, LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending August 3, 2013.  While shareholder ratification is not required by the Company’s By-Laws or otherwise, the Board is submitting the selection of BDO USA, LLP to the shareholders for ratification as part of good corporate governance practices.  If the shareholders fail to ratify the selection of BDO USA, LLP, the Board may, but is not required to, reconsider whether to retain BDO USA, LLP.  Even if the selection is ratified, the Board in its discretion may direct the appointment of different independent registered public accountants at any time during the year if it determines that such a change would be in the best interest of the Company and its shareholders.  Representatives of BDO USA, LLP will be present at the Annual Meeting, will have an opportunity to make a statement if they desire to do so and will be available to respond to appropriate questions from shareholders in attendance.

Audit Fees - The aggregate fees billed by BDO USA, LLP for professional services rendered for the audit of our annual financial statements set forth in our Annual Reports on Form 10-K for the fiscal years ended July 28, 2012 and July 30, 2011, for the reviews of the interim financial statements included in our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for those fiscal years and for assistance with other registration statement filings made by the Company during those fiscal years were $168,411 and $248,261, respectively.

Audit-Related Fees - For the fiscal year ended July 28, 2012, fees billed by BDO USA, LLP for services related to the sale of the assets of our subsidiary, RFI, were $15,000.  There were no fees for other professional services rendered during the fiscal year ended July 30, 2011.

Tax Fees - There were no fees billed by BDO USA, LLP for tax services for the fiscal years ended July 28, 2012 and July 30, 2011.

All Other Fees – There were no fees billed by BDO USA, LLP for services other than those described above under “Audit Fees” for fiscal years ended July 28, 2012 and July 30, 2011.

The Audit Committee’s policy is to pre-approve services to be performed by the Company’s independent public accountants in the categories of audit services, audit-related services, tax services and other services.  Additionally, the Audit Committee will consider on a case-by-case basis and, if appropriate, approve specific engagements that are not otherwise pre-approved.  The Audit Committee has approved all fees and advised us that it has determined that the non-audit services rendered by BDO USA, LLP during our most recent fiscal year are compatible with maintaining the independence of such auditors.

The affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the shares of common stock present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote on this matter at the Annual Meeting is required to ratify the selection of BDO USA, LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending August 3, 2013.

AUDIT COMMITTEE REPORT

The Audit Committee operates pursuant to a written charter adopted by the Board.

The role of the Audit Committee is to assist the Board in its oversight of our financial reporting process, as more fully described in this proxy statement.  As set forth in the Audit Committee Charter, our management is responsible for the preparation, presentation and integrity of our financial statements, our accounting and financial reporting principles and internal controls and procedures designed to assure compliance with accounting standards and applicable laws and regulations.  Our independent auditors are responsible for auditing our financial statements and expressing an opinion as to their conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

In the performance of its oversight function, the Audit Committee has reviewed and discussed the audited financial statements with the management of the Company and has discussed matters required to be discussed by SAS 61 (Codification of Statements on Auditing Standards, AU Section 380), as modified or supplemented, with BDO USA, LLP, the Company’s independent auditors for the fiscal year ended July 28, 2012.  The Audit Committee has received from BDO USA, LLP, the written disclosures and the letter required by applicable requirements of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board regarding BDO’s communications with the Audit Committee concerning independence, and has discussed with BDO the issue of its independence from the Company.  The Audit Committee also considered whether BDO USA, LLP’s non-audit services, including tax planning and consulting, are compatible with maintaining BDO USA, LLP’s independence.

Based upon the reports and discussions described in this report, and subject to the limitations on the role and responsibilities of the Audit Committee referred to above and in the Audit Committee Charter, the Audit Committee recommended to the Board that the audited financial statements be included in our 2012 Annual Report filed with the SEC.

PROXY MATERIALS DELIVERED TO A SHARED ADDRESS

A single proxy statement will be delivered to multiple shareholders sharing an address unless contrary instructions have been received from the affected shareholders. Once you have received notice, from us or from your bank, broker or other registered holder, that it will be householding communications to your address, householding will continue until you are notified otherwise or until you revoke your consent. A number of banks, brokers and other registered holders with account holders who are our shareholders household our proxy materials. If you hold your shares in street name, and no longer wish to participate in householding and would prefer to receive a separate proxy statement in the future, or currently receive multiple copies of the proxy materials and would like to request householding, please notify your bank, broker or other registered holder.
