under which such Restricted Stock was registered under the Securities Act
pursuant to Sections 3 and 4 above, any preliminary prospectus or final

therein not misleading, and will reimburse Purchaser, and each such controlling
person for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection
with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability, action
or expense; provided, however, that the Company will not be liable in any such
case if and to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage, liability or
expense arises out
4
of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission
or alleged omission so made in conformity with information, pertaining to
Purchaser, as such, furnished in writing by Purchaser specifically for use in
such registration statement or prospectus.

in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage,
liability or action, provided, however, that Purchaser will be liable hereunder
in any such case if and only to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or
liability arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue
statement or omission or alleged omission made in reliance upon and in
conformity with information pertaining to Purchaser, as such, furnished in
writing to the Company by Purchaser specifically for use in such registration
statement or prospectus; and provided further, however, that the liability of
Purchaser hereunder shall be limited to the proportion of any such loss, claim,
damage, liability or expense which is equal to the proportion that the public
offering price of the shares sold by Purchaser under such registration statement
bears to the total public offering price of all securities sold thereunder, but
not in any event to exceed the proceeds received by Purchaser from the sale of
Restricted Stock covered by such registration statement.
(c) Promptly after receipt by a party indemnified hereunder of notice of
the commencement of any action, such indemnified party shall, if a claim in
respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party hereunder, notify
the indemnifying party in writing thereof, but the omission so to notify the
indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have to
such indemnified party other than under this Section 7 and shall only relieve it
from any liability which it may have to such
5
indemnified party under this Section 7 if and to the extent the indemnifying
party is prejudiced by such omission. In case any such action shall be brought
against any indemnified party and it shall notify the indemnifying party of the
commencement thereof, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate in
and, to the extent it shall wish, to assume and undertake the defense thereof
with counsel satisfactory to such indemnified party and, after notice from the
indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume and
undertake the defense thereof, the indemnifying party shall not be liable to
such indemnified party under this Section 7 for any legal expense subsequently
incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof other
than reasonable costs of investigation and of liaison with counsel so selected;
provided, however, that if the defendants in any such action include both the
indemnified party and the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall
have reasonably concluded that there may be reasonable defenses available to it
which are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying
party or if the interests of the indemnified party reasonably may be deemed to
conflict with the interests of the indemnifying party, the indemnified parties
shall have the right to select one separate counsel and to assume such legal
defenses and otherwise to participate in the defense of such action, with the
expenses and fees of such separate counsel and other expenses related to such
participation to be reimbursed by the indemnifying party as incurred.
(d) In order to provide for just and equitable contribution to joint
liability under the Securities Act in any case in which either (i) Purchaser,
exercising its rights under this Agreement, or any controlling person of
Purchaser, makes a claim for indemnification pursuant to this Section 7 but it
is judicially determined, by the entry of a final judgment or decree by a court
of competent jurisdiction and the expiration of time to appeal or the denial of
the last right of appeal, that such indemnification may not be enforced in such
case, the fact that this Section 7 provides for indemnification in such case
notwithstanding, or (ii) contribution under the Securities Act may be required
on the part of Purchaser or any such controlling person in circumstances for
which indemnification is provided under this Section 7, then and in each such
case, the Company and Purchaser will contribute to the aggregate losses, claims,
damages or liabilities to which they may be subject, after contribution from
others, in such proportion so that Purchaser is responsible for the portion
represented by the percentage that the public offering price of its Restricted
Stock offered by the registration statement bears to the public offering price
of all securities offered by such registration statement, and the Company is
responsible for the remaining portion; provided, however, that in any such case,
(x) Purchaser will not be required to contribute any amount in excess of the
public offering price of all such Restricted Stock offered by it pursuant to
such registration statement; and (y) no person or entity guilty of fraudulent
misrepresentation, within the meaning of Section 11(f)
6
of the Securities Act, will be entitled to contribution from any person or
entity who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.
8. Changes in Common Stock. If, and as often as, there is any change in
the Common Stock by way of a stock split, stock dividend, combination or
reclassification, or through a merger, consolidation, reorganization or
recapitalization where the Company is the surviving entity, appropriate
adjustment shall be made in the provisions hereof so that the rights and
privileges granted hereby to Purchaser shall continue with respect to the Common
Stock as so changed.
9. Miscellaneous.
(a) The rights granted to Purchaser hereunder may not be assigned to any
other person; provided, however, that Purchaser may assign any or all of its
rights and interests hereunder to one or more of its wholly-owned subsidiaries
and designate one or more of its wholly-owned subsidiaries to perform its
obligations hereunder (in any or all of which cases, Purchaser shall nonetheless
remain responsible for the performance of all of its obligations hereunder).
(b) Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, any notice required
or desired to be served, given or delivered hereunder shall be in writing, and
shall be deemed to have been validly served, given or delivered upon the earlier
of (i) personal delivery to the address set forth below, or (ii) in the case of
notice by Federal Express or other reputable overnight courier service, two (2)
business days after delivery to such courier service, addressed to the party to
be notified as follows:
if to the Company or Purchaser, at the address of such
party set forth in the Stock Purchase Agreement.
(c) This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with
the laws of the State of New York without regard to conflict-of-laws principles
which would require the application of the laws of another jurisdiction.
(d) This Agreement may not be amended or modified, and no provision
hereof may be waived, without the written consent of the Company and Purchaser.
(e) This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of
which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute
one and the same instrument.
(f) The provisions of Section 4(a) above to the contrary
notwithstanding, the Company's obligation to file a registration statement, or
cause such registration statement to become and remain effective, shall be
suspended for a period not to exceed 30
7
days in any 12-month period if there exists at the time material non-public
information relating to the Company which, in the reasonable opinion of the
Company, should not be disclosed.
(g) If any provision of this Agreement shall be held to be illegal,
invalid or unenforceable, such illegality, invalidity or unenforceability shall
attach only to such provision and shall not in any manner affect or render
illegal, invalid or unenforceable any other provision of this Agreement, and
this Agreement shall be carried out as if any such illegal, invalid or
unenforceable provision were not contained herein.
(h) As used in this Agreement, the masculine, feminine or neutral gender
and the singular or plural number shall be deemed to include the others whenever
the context so indicates or requires.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company has caused this Agreement to be executed
by a duly authorized officer, and Purchaser has duly executed this Agreement, as
of the date first written above.

NEITHER THIS WARRANT NOR THE COMMON STOCK WHICH MAY BE ACQUIRED UPON THE
EXERCISE HEREOF ("WARRANT SHARES"), AS OF THE DATE OF ISSUANCE HEREOF, HAS BEEN
REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE "ACT"), OR UNDER
THE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE AND MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD, TRANSFERRED,
PLEDGED, HYPOTHECATED, ASSIGNED OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF EXCEPT PURSUANT TO AN
EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE ACT AND IN COMPLIANCE WITH ANY
APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAW, OR IN A TRANSACTION WHICH IS EXEMPT FROM
REGISTRATION UNDER THE ACT AND ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS. For the
Purchase of 233,333 shares of Common Stock
No. N - 023
WARRANT FOR THE PURCHASE OF
SHARES OF COMMON STOCK
OF
MILESTONE SCIENTIFIC INC.
(A Delaware corporation)
Milestone Scientific Inc., a Delaware corporation (the
"Company"), hereby certifies that for value received, Little Wings L.P.
("Registered Holder"), is entitled, subject to the terms set forth below, to
purchase from the Company, at any time or from time to time during the period
commencing on September 9, 1997, and ending on September 9, 1999, 233,333 shares
of Common Stock, $.001 par value, of the Company ("Common Stock"), at a purchase
price equal to $9.00 per share. The number of shares of Common Stock purchasable
upon exercise of this Warrant, and the purchase price per share, each as
adjusted from time to time pursuant to the provisions of this Warrant, are
hereinafter referred to as the "Warrant Shares" and the "Purchase Price",
respectively.
1. Exercise.
(a) This Warrant may be exercised by Registered Holder, in whole or in
part, by the surrender of this Warrant (with the Notice of Exercise Form
attached hereto as Exhibit I duly executed by Registered Holder) at the
principal office of the Company, or at such other office or agency as the
Company may designate, accompanied by payment in full, in lawful money of the
United States, of an amount equal to the then applicable Purchase Price
multiplied by the number of Warrant Shares then being purchased upon such
exercise.
(b) Each exercise of this Warrant shall be deemed to have been effected
immediately prior to the close of business on the day on which this Warrant
shall have been surrendered to the Company as provided in subsection l(a) above.
At such time, the person or persons in whose name or names any certificates for
Warrant Shares shall be issuable upon such exercise as provided in subsection
l(c) below shall be deemed to have become the holder or holders of record of the
Warrant Shares represented by such certificates.
(c) As soon as practicable after the exercise of the purchase right
represented by this Warrant, the Company at its expense will use its best
efforts to cause to be issued in the name of, and delivered to, Registered
Holder, or, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, to such other individual
or entity as Registered Holder (upon payment by Registered Holder of any
applicable transfer taxes) may direct:
(i) a certificate or certificates for the number of full shares of
Warrant Shares to which Registered Holder shall be entitled upon such exercise
plus, in lieu of any fractional share to which Registered Holder would otherwise
be entitled, cash in an amount determined pursuant to Section 3 hereof; and
(ii) in case such exercise is in part only, a new warrant or warrants
(dated the date hereof) of like tenor, stating on the face or faces thereof the
number of shares currently stated on the face of this Warrant minus the number
of such shares purchased by Registered Holder upon such exercise as provided in
subsection l(a) above.
2. Adjustments.
(a) Split, Subdivision or Combination of Shares. If the outstanding
shares of the Company's Common Stock at any time while this Warrant remains
outstanding and unexpired shall be subdivided or split into a greater number of
shares, or a dividend in Common Stock shall be paid in respect of Common Stock,
the Purchase Price in effect immediately prior to such subdivision or at the
record date of such dividend, simultaneously with the effectiveness of such
subdivision or split or immediately after the record date of such dividend (as
the case may be), shall be proportionately decreased. If the outstanding shares
of Common Stock shall be combined or reverse-split into a smaller number of
shares, the Purchase Price in effect immediately prior to such combination or
reverse split, simultaneously with the effectiveness of such combination or
reverse split, shall be proportionately increased. When any adjustment is
required to be made in the Purchase Price, the number of shares of Warrant
Shares purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be changed to the
number determined by dividing (i) an amount equal to the number of shares
issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant immediately prior to such adjustment,
multiplied by the Purchase Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment,
by (ii) the Purchase Price in effect immediately after such adjustment.
(b) Reclassification, Reorganization, Consolidation or Merger. In the
case of any reclassification of the Common Stock (other than a change in par
value or a subdivision or combination as provided for in subsection 2(a) above),
or any reorganization, consolidation or merger of the Company with or into
another corporation (other than a merger or reorganization with respect to which
the Company is the continuing corporation and which does not result in any
reclassification of the Common Stock), or a transfer of all or substantially all
of the assets of the Company, or the payment of a liquidating distribution then,
as part of any such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger,
sale or liquidating distribution, lawful provision shall be made so that
Registered Holder shall have the right thereafter to receive upon the exercise
hereof, the kind and amount of shares of stock or other securities or property
which Registered Holder would have been entitled to receive if, immediately
prior to any such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale
or liquidating distribution, as the case may be, Registered Holder had held the
number of shares of Common Stock which were then purchasable upon the exercise
of this Warrant. In any such
2
case, appropriate adjustment (as reasonably determined by the Board of Directors
of the Company) shall be made in the application of the provisions set forth
herein with respect to the rights and interests thereafter of Registered Holder
such that the provisions set forth in this Section 2 (including provisions with
respect to the Purchase Price) shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly as is
reasonably practicable, in relation to any shares of stock or other securities
or property thereafter deliverable upon the exercise of this Warrant.
(c) Price Adjustment. No adjustment in the per share exercise price
shall be required unless such adjustment would require an increase or decrease
in the Purchase Price of at least $0.01, provided, however, that any adjustments
which by reason of this paragraph are not required to be made shall be carried
forward and taken into account in any subsequent adjustment. All calculations
under this Section 2 shall be made to the nearest cent or to the nearest 1/lOOth
of a share, as the case may be.
(d) Price Reduction. Notwithstanding any other provision set forth in
this Warrant, at any time and from time to time during the period that this
Warrant is exercisable, the Company in it sole discretion may reduce the
Purchase Price or extend the period during which this Warrant is exercisable.
(e) No Impairment. The Company will not, by amendment of its Articles of
Incorporation or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation,
merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities or any other voluntary action,
avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms to be
observed or performed hereunder by the Company but will at all times in good
faith assist in the carrying out of all the provisions of this Section 2 and in
the taking of all such actions as may be necessary or appropriate in order to
protect against impairment of the rights of Registered Holder to adjustments in
the Purchase Price.
(f) Notice of Adjustment. Upon any adjustment of the Purchase Price or
extension of the Warrant exercise period, the Company shall forthwith give
written notice thereto to Registered Holder describing the event requiring the
adjustment, stating the adjusted Purchase Price and the adjusted number of
shares purchasable upon the exercise hereof resulting from such event, and
setting forth in reasonable detail the method of calculation and the facts upon
which such calculation is based.
3. Fractional Shares. The Company shall not be required upon the
exercise of this Warrant to issue any fractional shares, but shall make an
adjustment thereof in cash on the basis of the last sale price of the Warrant
Shares on the over-the-counter market as reported by Nasdaq or on a national
securities exchange on the trading day immediately prior to the date of
exercise, whichever is applicable, or if neither is applicable, then on the
basis of the then fair market value of the Warrant Shares as shall be reasonably
determined by the Board of Directors of the Company.
4. Limitation on Sales. Each holder of this Warrant acknowledges that
this Warrant and the Warrant Shares, as of the date of original issuance of this
Warrant, have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended
("Act"), and agrees not to sell, pledge, distribute, offer for sale, transfer or
otherwise dispose of this Warrant or any Warrant Shares issued upon its exercise
in the absence of (a) an effective registration statement under the Act as to
this Warrant or such Warrant Shares or (b) an opinion of counsel, satisfactory
to the Company, that such registration and qualification are not required. The
Warrant Shares issued upon exercise thereof shall be imprinted with a legend in
substantially the following form:
"THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED
UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE "ACT") OR APPLICABLE STATE
SECURITIES LAWS AND MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD, TRANSFERRED, PLEDGED,
HYPOTHECATED, ASSIGNED OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF EXCEPT PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE
REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE ACT AND IN COMPLIANCE WITH ANY APPLICABLE STATE
SECURITIES LAWS OR IN A TRANSACTION WHICH IS EXEMPT FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE
ACT AND ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS."
5. Certain Dividends. If the Company pays a dividend or makes a
distribution on the Common Stock ("Dividend"), other than a cash dividend or a
stock dividend payable in shares of Common Stock, then the Company
3
will pay or distribute to Registered Holder, upon the exercise hereof, in
addition to the Warrant Shares purchased upon such exercise, the Dividend which
would have been paid to such Registered Holder if it had been the owner of
record of such Warrant Shares immediately prior to the date on which a record is
taken for such Dividend or, if no record is taken, the date as of which the
record holders of Common Stock entitled to such Dividend are determined.
6. Registration Rights of Registered Holder. The Company and Registered
Holder have entered into a Registration Rights Agreement, dated the date hereof,
with respect to the Warrant Shares, pursuant to which the Company has agreed to
use its reasonable best efforts to prepare and file a Registration Statement
under the Act ("Registration Statement") with the Securities and Exchange
Commission and in such states as shall be reasonably specified by Registered
Holder registering for reoffer and resale the Warrant Shares no later than
September 30, 1997.
7. Notices of Record Date. In case:
(a) the Company shall take a record of the holders of its Common Stock
(or other stock or securities at the time deliverable upon the exercise of this
Warrant) for the purpose of entitling or enabling them to receive any dividend
or other distribution, or to receive any right to subscribe for or purchase any
shares of any class or any other securities, or to receive any other right, or
(b) of any capital reorganization of the Company, any reclassification
of the capital stock of the Company, any consolidation or merger of the Company
with or into another corporation (other than a consolidation or merger in which
the Company is the surviving entity), or any transfer of all or substantially
all of the assets of the Company, or
(c) of the voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or
winding-up of the Company, then, and in each such case, the Company will mail or
cause to be mailed to Registered Holder a notice specifying, as the case may be,
(i) the date on which a record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend,
distribution or right, and stating the amount and character of such dividend,
distribution or right, or (ii) the effective date on which such reorganization,
reclassification, consolidation, merger, transfer, dissolution, liquidation or
winding-up is to take place, and the time, if any is to be fixed, as of which
the holders of record of Common Stock (or such other stock or securities at the
time deliverable upon the exercise of this Warrant) shall be entitled to
exchange their shares of Common Stock (or such other stock or securities) for
securities or other property deliverable upon such reorganization'
reclassification, consolidation, merger, transfer, dissolution, liquidation or
winding-up. Such notice shall be mailed at least ten (10) days prior to the
record date or effective date for the event specified in such notice, provided
that the failure to mail such notice shall not affect the legality or validity
of any such action.
8. Reservation of Stock. The Company will at all times reserve and keep
available, solely for issuance and delivery upon the exercise of this Warrant,
such shares of Common Stock and other stock, securities and property, as from
time to time shall be issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant. The Company
shall apply for listing, and obtain such listing, for the Warrant Shares on The
Nasdaq Stock Market and each exchange on which the Common Stock is listed, at
the earliest time that such listing may be obtained in accordance with the rules
and regulations of The Nasdaq Stock Market and the exchange and maintain such
listing until the seventh anniversary of the date of original issuance of this
Warrant.
9. Replacement of Warrants. Upon receipt of evidence reasonably
satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of
this Warrant and (in the case of loss, theft or destruction) upon delivery of an
indemnity agreement (with surety if reasonably required) in an amount reasonably
satisfactory to the Company, or (in the case of mutilation) upon surrender and
cancellation of this Warrant, the Company will issue, in lieu thereof, a new
Warrant of like tenor.
10. Transfers. etc.
(a) The Company will maintain a register containing the names and
address of Registered Holder. Registered
4
Holder may change its address as shown on the warrant register by written notice
to the Company requesting such change.
(b) Until any transfer of this Warrant is made in the warrant register,
the Company may treat Registered Holder as the absolute owner hereof for all
purposes, provided, however, that if and when this Warrant is properly assigned
in blank, the Company may (but shall not be obligated to) treat the bearer
hereof as the absolute owner hereof for all purposes, notwithstanding any notice
to the contrary.
11. No Rights as Stockholder. Until the exercise of this Warrant,
Registered Holder shall not have or exercise any rights by virtue hereof as a
stockholder of the Company.
12. Successors. The rights and obligations of the parties to this
Warrant will inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto and
their respective heirs, successors, assigns, pledgees, transferees and
purchasers. Without limiting the foregoing, the registration rights set forth in
this Warrant shall inure to the benefit of Registered Holder and Registered
Holder's successors, heirs, pledgees, assignees, transferees and purchasers of
this Warrant and the Warrant Shares.
13. Change or Waiver. Any term of this Warrant may be changed or waived
only by an instrument in writing signed by the party against which enforcement
of the change or waiver is sought.
14. Headings. The headings in this Warrant are for purposes of reference
only and shall not limit or otherwise affect the meaning of any provision of
this Warrant.
15. Governing Law. This Warrant shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the laws of the State of New York as such laws are applied to
contracts made and to be fully performed entirely within that state between
residents of that state.
16. Jurisdiction and Venue. The Company and Registered Holder (i) agree
that any legal suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this
Warrant shall be instituted exclusively in New York State Supreme Court, County
of New York or in the United States District Court for the Southern District of
New York, (ii) waives any objection to the venue of any such suit, action or
proceeding and the right to assert that such forum is not a convenient forum for
such suit, action or proceeding, and (iii) irrevocably consent to the
jurisdiction of the New York State Supreme Court, County of New York, and the
United States District Court for the Southern District of New York in any such
suit, action or proceeding, and the Company and Registered Holder further agree
