Item 1.01 |
Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement |
Effective February 8, 2019, Milestone Scientific Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with BP4 S.p.A. (the “BP4”), a principal stockholder of the Company whose Chief Executive Officer, Gian Domenico Trombetta, is a Director of the Company and is also Chief Executive Officer and Director of Wand Dental Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, for the private placement (the “Placement”) of an aggregate of 714,286 shares (the “Shares”) of common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”) of the Company, together with a warrant (the “Warrant”) to purchase up to 178,571 shares of Common Stock (the “Warrant Shares”), for an aggregate purchase price of $250,000. The Warrant is exercisable for a period of five years at an exercise price equal to $0.50 per share of Common Stock.
The Placement was in satisfaction of a preemptive right granted to BP4 under that certain Investment Agreement, dated April 15, 2014, between the Company and BP4, which was triggered by the Company’s previously announced public offering of shares of Common Stock and warrants pursuant to a shelf registration statement that the Company filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, which became effective on May 4, 2016 (File No. 333-209466).
In connection with the Purchase Agreement the Company agreed to register the Shares, Warrants and Warrant Shares with the Securities and Exchange Commission and to effect such registration by no later than August 8, 2019.
A copy of the Stock Purchase Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and is incorporated herein by reference. A copy of the form of Warrant is attached hereto as Exhibit 4.1 and is incorporated herein by reference. The foregoing description of the material terms of the Stock Purchase Agreement and the Warrant does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to such exhibit.

Item 3.02 |
Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities |
The disclosure under Item 1.01 is incorporated herein by reference to the extent required.
The offer and sale of the Shares and the Warrant, including the Warrant Shares (collectively, the “Securities”), has not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). The Securities have been sold in reliance upon the exemption from registration afforded by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act. The Securities may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration under or exemption from the Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws.
|
Item 8.01 |
Other Events |
The Company issued a press release on February 14, 2019 announcing the Placement. The press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
