in connection with an offering described in Section 6 hereof multiplied by a
fraction the numerator of which is the aggregate sales price of the Securities

the denominator of which is the aggregate sales price of all of the securities
sold by such underwriter, underwriting syndicate, or agent in such offering and
(ii) all out-of-pocket expenses of the Warrantholder, except for the fees and

this Warrant Certificate may be exercised commencing on the first anniversary of
the Effective Date and ending at 5 p.m. Pacific Time on the fifth anniversary of
the Effective Date by surrendering this Warrant Certificate, together with
appropriate instructions, duly executed by the Warrantholder or by its duly
authorized attorney, at the office of the Company at Milestone Scientific Inc.,
220 South Orange Ave., Livingston, New Jersey 07039, Attention: President; or at
such other office or agency as the Company may designate. The date on which such
instructions are received by the Company shall be the date of exercise. If the
Holder has elected a Cashless Exercise, such instructions shall so state. Upon
receipt of notice of exercise, the Company shall immediately instruct its
transfer agent to prepare certificates for the Securities to be received by the
Warrantholder upon completion of the Warrant exercise. When such certificates
are prepared,

<PAGE>

the Company shall notify the Warrantholder and deliver such certificates to the
Warrantholder or as per the Warrantholder's instructions immediately upon
payment in full by the Warrantholder, in lawful money of the United States, of
the Exercise Price payable with respect to the Securities being purchased, if
any. If the Warrantholder shall represent and warrant that all applicable
registration and prospectus delivery requirements for their sale have been
complied with upon sale of the Securities received upon exercise of the Warrant,
such certificates shall not bear a legend with respect to the Securities Act of
1933, as amended.

         If fewer than all the Securities purchasable under the Warrant are
purchased, the Company will, upon such partial exercise, execute and deliver to
the Warrantholder a new Warrant Certificate (dated the date hereof), in form and
tenor similar to this Warrant Certificate, evidencing that portion of the
Warrant not exercised. The Securities to be obtained on exercise of the Warrant
will be deemed to have been issued, and any person exercising the Warrants will
be deemed to have become a holder of record of those Securities, as of the date
of the payment of the Exercise Price.

         3. Adjustments in Certain Events. The number, class, and price of
Securities for which this Warrant Certificate may be exercised are subject to
adjustment from time to time upon the happening of certain events as follows:

               (a) If the outstanding shares of the Company's Common Stock are
divided into a greater number of shares or a dividend in stock is paid on the
Common Stock, the number of shares of Common Stock for which the Warrant is then
exercisable will be proportionately increased and the Exercise Price will be
proportionately reduced; and, conversely, if the outstanding shares of Common
Stock are combined into a smaller number of shares of Common Stock, the number
of shares of Common Stock for which the Warrant is then exercisable will be
proportionately reduced and the Exercise Price will be proportionately
increased. The increases and reductions provided for in this Section 3(a) will
be made with the intent and, as nearly as practicable, the effect that neither
the percentage of the total equity of the Company obtainable on exercise of the
Warrants nor the price payable for such percentage upon such exercise will be
affected by any event described in this Section 3(a).

               (b) In case of any change in the Common Stock through merger,
consolidation, reclassification, reorganization, partial or complete
liquidation, purchase of substantially all the assets of the Company, or other
change in the capital structure of the Company, then, as a condition of such
change, lawful and adequate provision will be made so that the holder of this
Warrant Certificate will have the right thereafter to receive upon the exercise
of the Warrant the kind and amount of shares of stock or other securities or
property to which he would have been entitled if, immediately prior to such
event, he had held the number of shares of Common Stock obtainable upon the
exercise of the Warrant. In any such case, appropriate adjustment will be made
in the application of the provisions set forth herein with respect to the rights
and interest thereafter of the Warrantholder, to the end that the provisions set
forth herein will thereafter be applicable, as nearly as reasonably may be, in
relation to any shares of stock or other property thereafter deliverable upon
the exercise of the Warrant. The Company will not permit any change in its
capital structure to occur unless the issuer of the shares of stock or other
securities to be received by the holder of this Warrant Certificate, if not the
Company, agrees to be bound by and comply with the provisions of this Warrant
Certificate.

<PAGE>

               (c) When any adjustment is required to be made in the number of
shares of Common Stock, other securities, or the property purchasable upon
exercise of the Warrant, the Company will promptly determine the new number of
such shares or other securities or property purchasable upon exercise of the
Warrant and (i) prepare and retain on file a statement describing in reasonable
detail the method used in arriving at the new number of such shares or other
securities or property purchasable upon exercise of the Warrant and (ii) cause a
copy of such statement to be mailed to the Warrantholder within thirty (30) days
after the date of the event giving rise to the adjustment.

               (d) No fractional shares of Common Stock or other securities will
be issued in connection with the exercise of the Warrant, but the Company will
pay, in lieu of fractional shares, a cash payment therefor on the basis of the
mean between the bid and asked prices of the Common Stock in the
over-the-counter market or the last sale price of the Common Stock on the
principal exchange or other trading facility on which the Common Stock is traded
on the day immediately prior to exercise.

               (e) If securities of the Company or securities of any subsidiary
of the Company are distributed pro rata to holders of Common Stock, such number
of securities will be distributed to the Warrantholder or its assignee upon
exercise of its rights hereunder as such Warrantholder or assignee would have
been entitled to if this Warrant Certificate had been exercised prior to the
record date for such distribution. The provisions with respect to adjustment of
the Common Stock provided in this Section 3 will also apply to the securities to
which the Warrantholder or its assignee is entitled under this Section 3(e).

               (f) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, there will
be no adjustment made hereunder on account of the sale by the Company of the
Common Stock or other Securities purchasable upon exercise of the Warrant.

               (g) If, immediately prior to any exercise of Warrants, there
shall be outstanding no securities of a class or series that, but for the
provisions of this Section 3, would be issuable upon such exercise (the
"Formerly Issuable Securities"), then, upon such exercise, and in lieu of the
Formerly Issuable Securities, the Company shall issue that number and kind of
other securities or property for which the Formerly Issuable Securities were
most recently exercisable or into which the Formerly Issuable Securities were
most recently convertible, as the case may be.

         4. Reservation of Securities. The Company agrees that the number of
shares of Common Stock or other Securities sufficient to provide for the
exercise of the Warrant upon the basis set forth above will at all times during
the term of the Warrant be reserved for exercise.

         5. Validity of Securities. All Securities delivered upon the exercise
of the Warrant will be duly and validly issued in accordance with their terms,
and the Company will pay all documentary and transfer taxes, if any, in respect
of the original issuance thereof upon exercise of the Warrant.

<PAGE>

         6. Registration of Securities Issuable on Exercise of Warrant
Certificate.

               (a) The Company will register the Securities with the Commission
pursuant to the Act so as to allow the unrestricted sale of the Securities to
the public from time to time commencing on the first anniversary of the
Effective Date and ending at 5:00 p.m. Pacific Time on the fifth anniversary of
the Effective Date (the "Registration Period"). The Company will also file such
applications and other documents necessary to permit the sale of the Securities
to the public during the Registration Period in those states in which the Units
were qualified for sale in the Offering or such other states as the Company and
the Warrantholder agree to. In order to comply with the provisions of this
Section 6(a), the Company is not required to file more than one registration
statement. No registration right of any kind, "piggyback" or otherwise, will
last longer than five years from the Effective Date.

               (b) The Company will pay all of the Company's Expenses and each
Warrantholder will pay its pro rata share of the Warrantholder's Expenses
relating to the registration, offer, and sale of the Securities.

               (c) Except as specifically provided herein, the manner and
conduct of the registration, including the contents of the registration, will be
entirely in the control and at the discretion of the Company. The Company will
file such post-effective amendments and supplements as may be necessary to
maintain the currency of the registration statement during the period of its
use. In addition, if the Warrantholder participating in the registration is
advised by counsel that the registration statement, in their opinion, is
deficient in any material respect, the Company will use its best efforts to
cause the registration statement to be amended to eliminate the concerns raised.

               (d) The Company will furnish to the Warrantholder the number of
copies of a prospectus, including a preliminary prospectus, in conformity with
the requirements of the Act, and such other documents as it may reasonably
request in order to facilitate the disposition of Securities owned by it.

               (e) The Company will, at the request of Warrantholders holding at
least 50 percent of the then outstanding Warrants, (i) furnish an opinion of the
counsel representing the Company for the purposes of the registration pursuant
to this Section 6, addressed to the Warrantholders and any Participating
Underwriter, (ii) furnish an appropriate letter from the independent public
accountants of the Company, addressed to the Warrantholders and any
Participating Underwriter, and (iii) make representations and warranties to the
Warrantholders and any Participating Underwriter. A request pursuant to this
subsection (e) may be made on three occasions. The documents required to be
delivered pursuant to this subsection (e) will be dated within ten days of the
request and will be, in form and substance, equivalent to similar documents
furnished to the underwriters in connection with the Offering, with such changes
as may be appropriate in light of changed circumstances.

         7. Indemnification in Connection with Registration.

               (a) If any of the Securities are registered, the Company will
indemnify and hold harmless each selling Warrantholder, any person who controls
any selling Warrantholder

<PAGE>

within the meaning of the Act, and any Participating Underwriter against any
losses, claims, damages, or liabilities, joint or several, to which any
Warrantholder, controlling person, or Participating Underwriter may be subject
under the Act or otherwise; and it will reimburse each Warrantholder, each
controlling person, and each Participating Underwriter for any legal or other
expenses reasonably incurred by the Warrantholder, controlling person, or
Participating Underwriter in connection with investigating or defending any such
loss, claim, damage, liability, or action, insofar as such losses, claims,
damages, or liabilities, joint or several (or actions in respect thereof), arise
out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any
material fact contained, on the effective date thereof, in any such registration
statement or any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus, or any amendment or
supplement thereto, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged
omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or
necessary to make the statements therein not misleading; provided, however, that
the Company will not be liable in any case to the extent that any loss, claim,
damage, or liability arises out of or is based upon any untrue statement or
alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in any
registration statement, preliminary prospectus, final prospectus, or any
amendment or supplement thereto, in reliance upon and in conformity with written
information furnished by a Warrantholder for use in the preparation thereof. The
indemnity agreement contained in this subparagraph (a) will not apply to amounts
paid to any claimant in settlement of any suit or claim unless such payment is
first approved by the Company, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld.

               (b) Each selling Warrantholder, as a condition of the Company's
registration obligation, will indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each of
its directors, each of its officers who have signed any registration statement
or other filing or any amendment or supplement thereto, and any person who
controls the Company within the meaning of the Act, against any losses, claims,
damages, or liabilities to which the Company or any such director, officer, or
controlling person may become subject under the Act or otherwise, and will
reimburse any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the Company or any
such director, officer, or controlling person in connection with investigating
or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability, or action, insofar as such
losses, claims, damages, or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise
out of or are based upon any untrue or alleged untrue statement of any material
fact contained in said registration statement, any preliminary or final
prospectus, or other filing, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or arise
out of or are based upon the omission or the alleged omission to state therein a
material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements
therein not misleading, but only to the extent that such untrue statement or
alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in said
registration statement, preliminary or final prospectus, or other filing, or
amendment or supplement, in reliance upon and in conformity with written
information furnished by such Warrantholder for use in the preparation thereof;
provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this subparagraph
(b) will not apply to amounts paid to any claimant in settlement of any suit or
claim unless such payment is first approved by the Warrantholder, such approval
not to be unreasonably withheld.

               (c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under
subparagraphs (a) or (b) above of notice of the commencement of any action, such
indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against an
indemnifying party, notify the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof;
but the omission to notify the indemnifying party will not relieve it

<PAGE>

from any liability that it may have to any indemnified party otherwise than
under subparagraphs (a) and (b).

               (d) If any such action is brought against any indemnified party
and it notifies an indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the
indemnifying party will be entitled to participate in, and, to the extent that
it may wish, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to
assume the defense thereof, with counsel satisfactory to such indemnified party;
and after notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its
election to assume the defense thereof, the indemnifying party will not be
liable to such indemnified party for any legal or other expenses subsequently
incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof other
than reasonable costs of investigation.

         8. Restrictions on Transfer. This Warrant Certificate and the Warrant
may not be sold, transferred, assigned or hypothecated for a one-year period
after the Effective Date except to underwriters of the Offering or to
individuals who are either a partner or an officer of such an underwriter or by
will or by operation of law. The Warrant may be divided or combined, upon
request to the Company by the Warrantholder, into a certificate or certificates
evidencing the same aggregate number of Warrants.

         9. No Rights as a Shareholder. Except as otherwise provided herein, the
Warrantholder will not, by virtue of ownership of the Warrant, be entitled to
any rights of a shareholder of the Company but will, upon written request to the
Company, be entitled to receive such quarterly or annual reports as the Company
distributes to its shareholders.

         10. Notice. Any notices required or permitted to be given hereunder
