AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER

THIS AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER (this “Agreement”) is made and entered into on June 30, 2010, by and among BACTERIN INTERNATIONAL HOLDINGS, INC., f/k/a K-KITZ, INC., a Delaware corporation (“Parent”), KB MERGER SUB, INC., a Nevada corporation (“Merger Sub”), which is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent, and BACTERIN INTERNATIONAL, INC., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”).

WHEREAS, the Board of Directors of each of Parent, Merger Sub and the Company have each determined that it is fair to and in the best interests of their respective corporations and stockholders for the Company to be merged with and into the Merger Sub (the “Merger”) upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein;

WHEREAS, the Board of Directors of each of Merger Sub and the Company have approved the Merger in accordance with applicable Nevada law, specifically including Chapters 78 and 92A of the Nevada Revised Statutes (“Nevada Law” or “NRS”), and upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein and in the Articles of Merger (the “Articles of Merger”) attached as Exhibit A hereto; and the Board of Directors of Parent also has approved this Agreement and the Articles of Merger;

WHEREAS, the Company Stockholders (as such term is defined in Section 1.5(a)(ii)) of the Company have approved, in accordance with Nevada Law, the transactions contemplated and described in this Agreement and the Articles of Merger, including, without limitation, the Merger, and Parent, as the sole stockholder of Merger Sub, has approved this Agreement, the Articles of Merger and the transactions contemplated and described hereby and thereby, including, without limitation, the Merger; and

WHEREAS, simultaneously with the Closing (as such term is defined herein), (a) Parent (as it will exist as of the closing of the Merger) is selling shares of its Common Stock, par value $.000001 per share, and warrants to purchase shares of Common Stock, in a private placement (the “Private Placement”) to accredited investors, pursuant to the terms of a Confidential Private Placement Memorandum, dated June __, 2010, as it may be supplemented from time to time (the “Memorandum”), for the purpose of financing the ongoing business and operations of the Surviving Corporation (as defined below) following the Merger, and (b) certain investors who purchased secured convertible promissory notes of the Company and warrants to purchase shares of capital stock (the “Bridge Notes”) and certain investors who have purchased unsecured convertible promissory notes of the Company and warrants to purchase shares of capital stock (the “Mandatory Bridge Notes”) are converting certain of the principal and interest outstanding under such notes into shares of Common Stock of the Parent, all in accordance with the terms of the Bridge Notes and this Agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual agreements and covenants hereinafter set forth, the parties hereto agree as follows:

1. The Merger.

1.1 Merger. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Articles of Merger, the Merger Sub shall be merged with and into the Company in accordance with Chapter 92A of the NRS. At the Effective Time (as hereinafter defined), the separate legal existence of Merger Sub shall cease, and the Company shall be the surviving corporation in the Merger (sometimes hereinafter referred to as the “Surviving Corporation”) and shall continue its corporate existence under the laws of the State of Nevada under the name “Bacterin International, Inc.”

1.2 Effective Time. The Merger shall become effective at the date and time of the filing of the Articles of Merger with the Secretary of State of the State of Nevada in accordance with Nevada Law. The time at which the Merger shall become effective as aforesaid is referred to hereinafter as the “Effective Time.”

1.3 Articles of Incorporation, Bylaws, Directors and Executive Officers.

(a) The Articles of Incorporation of the Company, as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, attached as Exhibit B hereto, shall be the Articles of Incorporation of the Surviving Corporation from and after the Effective Time until further amended in accordance with applicable law.

(b) The Bylaws of the Company, as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, attached as Exhibit C hereto, shall be the Bylaws of the Surviving Corporation from and after the Effective Time until amended in accordance with applicable law, the Articles of Incorporation and such Bylaws.

(c) The directors and executive officers listed in Exhibit D hereto shall be the directors and executive officers of the Surviving Corporation, and each shall hold his or her respective office or offices from and after the Effective Time until his or her successor shall have been elected and qualified in accordance with applicable law, or as otherwise provided in the Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws of the Surviving Corporation.

1.4 Assets and Liabilities. At the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation shall possess all the rights, privileges, powers and franchises of a public as well as of a private nature, and be subject to all the restrictions, disabilities and duties of each of Merger Sub and the Company (collectively, the “Constituent Corporations”); and all the rights, privileges, powers and franchises of each of the Constituent Corporations, and all property, real, personal and mixed, and all debts due to any of the constituent corporations on whatever account, as well for stock subscriptions as all other things in action or belonging to each of the Constituent Corporations, shall be vested in the Surviving Corporation; and all property, rights, privileges, powers and franchises, and all and every other interest shall be thereafter as effectively the property of the Surviving Corporation as they were of the several and respective constituent corporations, and the title to any real estate vested by deed or otherwise in either of the Constituent Corporations shall not revert or be in any way impaired by the Merger; but all rights of creditors and all liens upon any property of any of the Constituent Corporations shall be preserved unimpaired, and all debts, liabilities and duties of the Constituent Corporations shall thenceforth attach to the Surviving Corporation, and may be enforced against it to the same extent as if said debts, liabilities and duties had been incurred or contracted by it.

1.5 Manner and Basis of Converting Shares.

(a) At the Effective Time:

(i) each share of Common Stock, par value $.0001 per share, of Merger Sub that is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time by the sole stockholder of the Merger Sub shall, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the holder thereof, be converted into the right to receive one (1) share of Common Stock, par value $.00001 per share, of the Surviving Corporation, so that at the Effective Time, Parent shall be the holder of all of the issued and outstanding shares of the Surviving Corporation;

(ii) each share of Common Stock, par value $0.00001 per share, of the Company (the “Company Common Stock”) that is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time by the stockholders of the Company (the “Company Stockholders”), shall, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the holders thereof, be converted into the right to receive that number of shares of Common Stock, par value $0.000001 per share, of the Parent as is determined by multiplying each share of outstanding Company Common Stock (other than any shares of Company Common Stock held in the treasury of the Company) by fifty percent (50%), all subject to the rights of holders of the shares of Company Common Stock to seek appraisal of the “fair value” thereof by following the procedures required by Nevada Law, specifically NRS §§ 92A.300 to 92A.500. No interest will be paid on any cash held pending surrender of certificates representing such shares of Company Common Stock, unless otherwise required by Nevada Law. Company Stockholders who shall have properly demanded in writing appraisal for their shares of Company Common Stock in accordance with NRS §§ 92A.300 to 92A.500 (collectively, the “Dissenting Shares”) shall be entitled to receive payment of the “fair value” of such Dissenting Shares in accordance with NRS §§ 92A.300 to 92A.500, except that any Dissenting Shares held by a Company Stockholder who shall have failed to perfect or shall have effectively withdrawn or lost their rights to appraisal of such Dissenting Shares under NRS §§ 92A.300 to 92A.500 shall be deemed to have been converted, as of the Effective Time, into the right to receive the shares of Parent Common Stock that they would have received had they not attempted to exercise their dissenters rights.

(iii) each share of Company Common Stock held in the treasury of the Company immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be cancelled in the Merger and cease to exist.

(b) After the Effective Time, there shall be no further registration of transfers on the stock transfer books of the Surviving Corporation of the shares of Company Common Stock that were outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time.

1.6 Surrender and Exchange of Certificates. Promptly after the Effective Time and upon (i) surrender of a certificate or certificates representing shares of Company Common Stock that were outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time or delivery of an affidavit and indemnification in form reasonably acceptable to counsel for the Parent stating that such Stockholder has lost their certificate or certificates representing such Company Common Stock (“Lost Stock Certificate Affidavit”) or that such certificate or certificates has or have been destroyed and (ii) delivery of a Letter of Transmittal (as described in Section 4 hereof), Parent shall issue to each record holder of the Company Common Stock surrendering such certificate or certificates (or delivering a Lost Stock Certificate Affidavit) and delivering such Letter of Transmittal, a certificate or certificates registered in the name of such Stockholder representing the number of shares of Parent Common Stock that such Stockholder shall be entitled to receive as set forth in Section 1.5(a)(ii) hereof (i.e., one-half of that number of shares of Company Common Stock represented by the certificate or certificates or Lost Stock Certificate Affidavit, as applicable). Until the certificate, certificates or affidavit is or are surrendered together with the Letter of Transmittal as contemplated by this Section 1.6 and Section 4 hereof, each certificate or Lost Stock Certificate Affidavit that immediately prior to the Effective Time represented any outstanding shares of Company Common Stock shall be deemed at and after the Effective Time to represent only the right to receive upon surrender as aforesaid the Parent Common Stock specified in Section 1.5(a)(ii) hereof for the holder thereof or to perfect any rights of appraisal which such holder may have pursuant to the applicable provisions of Nevada Law.

1.7 Parent Common Stock. Parent agrees that it will cause the Parent Common Stock into which the Company Common Stock is converted at the Effective Time pursuant to Section 1.5(a)(ii) to be available for such purpose. Parent further covenants that immediately prior to the Effective Time there will be no more than 1,180,596 shares of Parent Common Stock issued and outstanding, not including shares of Parent Common Stock that may be issued in the Private Placement or upon conversion of any Bridge Notes, and that no other common or preferred stock or equity securities or any options, warrants, rights or other agreements or instruments convertible, exchangeable or exercisable into common or preferred stock or other equity securities shall be issued or outstanding, except as described herein.

1.8 Post-Closing Adjustment. If any Company Stockholder exercises such stockholder’s dissenter’s rights under Nevada Law (a “Dissenting Stockholder”) such that the Company is obligated to pay such stockholder the “fair value” for such Dissenting Stockholder’s Dissenting Shares, Parent shall issue to the Company Stockholders (excluding all Dissenting Stockholders), on a pro rata basis, immediately after the time has expired for Company Stockholders to exercise dissenters rights, that number of shares of Parent Common Stock such that the total number of shares issued to all Company Stockholders (excluding all Dissenting Stockholders) would have equaled 96% of the total number of shares of Parent Common Stock outstanding immediately after the Merger (excluding all Dissenting Shares) but prior to any issuances of securities in the Private Placement or any conversions of Bridge Notes.

1.9 Employee Stock Options. Effective as of the Effective Time, the Parent and Company shall take all necessary action, including obtaining the consent of the individual holders of options issued under the Company’s 2004 Stock Incentive Plan, as amended through the date of this Agreement (the “Company Stock Option Plan”), if necessary, to (a) issue new options under the Parent’s Equity Incentive Plan (the “Substitute Options”) in substitution of each outstanding option issued under the Company Stock Option Plan (the “Company Options”) with such adjustments to (i) the number of shares of Parent Common Stock purchasable under such Substitute Options as is necessary for such Substitute Options to reflect the right to purchase that number of shares of Parent Common Stock that the holder thereof would have been entitled to receive if the Company Option had been exercised immediately prior to the Merger and (ii) the exercise price of such Substitute Option to reflect, on a proportionate basis, the change in the number of shares of Parent Common Stock for which the Substitute Option may be exercised, (b) cancel each Company Option, and (c) terminate the Company Stock Option Plan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the exchange of Company Options for Substitute Options and the terms of all Substitute Options, including those reflecting any adjustments required hereby, shall comply with Section 409A of the Code.

1.10 Convertible Notes and Warrants. Effective as of the Effective Time, the Parent and Company shall take all necessary action, including obtaining the consent of the individual holders of convertible promissory notes and warrants issued by the Company prior to the Merger (“Company Notes” and “Company Warrants”, respectively), if necessary, to (a) issue new convertible promissory notes and warrants of the Parent (the “Substitute Notes” and “Substitute Warrants”, respectively) in substitution of the outstanding Company Notes and Company Warrants, respectively (the “Note or Warrant Exchange”), with such adjustments to (i) the number of shares of Parent Common Stock into which the Substitute Notes are convertible or that are purchasable under the Substitute Warrants as is necessary for such Substitute Notes and Substitute Warrants to reflect the right to convert into or purchase, as applicable, that number of shares of Parent Common Stock that the holder thereof would have been entitled to receive if the Company Note or Company Warrant had been converted into, or exercised for, shares of Parent Common Stock immediately prior to the Merger, and (ii) the exercise price of each Substitute Warrant to reflect, on a proportionate basis, the change in the number of shares of Parent Common Stock for which the Substitute Warrant may be exercised, and (b) cancel each Company Note and Company Warrant. To the extent that the Parent and the Company cannot effectuate the Note or Warrant Exchange described above, Parent agrees to affirmatively assume the obligations of the Company under the Company Notes and Company Warrants.

1.11 Tax Matters. The Merger is intended to qualify as a reorganization within the meaning of Sections 368(a)(1)(A) and 368(a)(2)(E) of the Code and this Agreement is intended to be a “plan of reorganization” within the meaning of the Treasury Regulations promulgated under Section 368 of the Code. Each party hereto shall treat this Agreement as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code for all U.S. federal income tax purposes, and shall treat this Agreement as a “plan of reorganization” within the meaning of the Treasury Regulations promulgated under Section 368 of the Code, and will not take any position on any Tax Return or otherwise take any Tax reporting position inconsistent with such treatment, unless otherwise required by a “determination” within the meaning of Section 1313 of the Code that such treatment is not correct. Each party hereto shall act in a manner that is consistent with the parties’ intention that the arrangement be treated as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code for all U.S. federal income tax purposes. However, neither the Company, Parent, nor Merger Sub makes any representation or warranty to any shareholder or security holder of the Company regarding the U.S. Federal income tax consequences of the Agreement.

2.8 Binding Obligations.
