Our bone graftproducts are used in a variety of applications including enhancing fusion in spine surgery, relief of back pain through facet joint stabilization, promotion ofbone growth in foot and ankle surgery, promotion of skull healing following neurosurgery and subchondral bone repair in knee and other joint surgeries. Ouracellular dermis scaffolds are utilized in wound care and plastic and reconstructive procedures. Our medical devices division develops coatings for medical devices and custom surgical instruments for use with allografts processed by ourbiologics division. Our medical devices division also works with our biologics division to produce and distribute OsteoSelect® DBM putty, an osteoinductiveproduct used by surgeons as a bone void filler in the extremities and pelvis. DBM putty is considered a combination product by regulatory agencies - both atissue and a medical device. Our Offices Our headquarters, laboratory and manufacturing facilities are located at 600 Cruiser Lane, Belgrade, Montana 59714. Our telephone number is(406) 388-0480 and our fax number is (406) 388-0422. We also own a facility located at 664 Cruiser Lane, Belgrade, Montana 59714, and lease space at 732Cruiser Lane, Belgrade, Montana 59714 and 8310 S. Valley Highway, No. 300, Englewood, Colorado 80112. Our History We began operations in 1998 as a spinout of the Center for Biofilm Engineering at Montana State University, or the CBE, and we eventuallyincorporated as “Bacterin, Inc.” in the state of Montana in January 2000. In March 2004, Bacterin, Inc.’s stockholders completed the terms of a shareexchange agreement with a company called Oil & Gas Seekers, Inc., a Nevada corporation, or OGS, which subsequently changed its name to “BacterinInternational, Inc.,” to effectively become a publicly-traded corporation. As a result of this transaction, the stockholders of Bacterin, Inc., the Montanacorporation, became stockholders of Bacterin International, Inc., the Nevada corporation, and Bacterin, Inc., the Montana corporation, became a whollyowned subsidiary of Bacterin International, Inc., the Nevada corporation. At the end of 2004, management concluded that this transaction was problematicand did not deliver the expected result. Based on this determination, we entered into an agreement in 2005 to amend the terms of the exchange transaction withthe former majority stockholder of OGS. In May 2005, we merged Bacterin, Inc., the Montana corporation, up and into Bacterin International, Inc., theNevada corporation. We began as a biomaterials testing laboratory and have systematically expanded our strategic vision towards the development of Bacterin-labeledproducts. Our revenues were initially derived from testing services and milestone payments from collaborative product development agreements with variousmedical manufacturers. Today we generate most of our revenue from biologics products we manufacture. We also generate revenue from sales of productsmanufactured by a third party and sold and distributed by us, as well as contract revenue from analytical testing, development and manufacturing servicesprovided to medical device manufacturer clients, which tailor our coating process to the client’s specific product/medical application. 4 On June 30, 2010, we completed a reverse merger transaction, or the Reverse Merger, in which we caused Bacterin International, Inc. to be mergedwith and into a wholly-owned Nevada subsidiary of Bacterin International Holdings, Inc. f/k/a K-Kitz Incorporated, a Delaware corporation, and as a result,Bacterin International, Inc. became a wholly owned subsidiary of Bacterin International Holdings, Inc. The Reverse Merger was consummated under Nevadacorporate law pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of June 30, 2010. As a result of the Reverse Merger, Bacterin International, Inc. becameour wholly owned subsidiary and we are now engaged, through Bacterin International, Inc., in the business of biomaterials research, development, andcommercialization. Before the Reverse Merger, Bacterin International Holdings, Inc. was known as K-Kitz, Incorporated, with a trading symbol of KKTZ.OB. OnJune 29, 2010, K-Kitz Incorporated changed its corporate name to “Bacterin International Holdings, Inc.” which name change became effective for tradingpurposes on July 1, 2010, following the reverse merger transaction. Effective July 21, 2010, our trading symbol was changed from KKTZ.OB to BIHI.OB.On March 7, 2011, our common stock began trading on the NYSE Amex under the ticker symbol “BONE.” Industry and Market Overview The orthopedic biomaterials market consists of materials that are organic, inorganic or synthetic in nature. These materials are implanted or appliedin or near the indicated bone to facilitate healing, encourage bone tissue augmentation, compensate in areas where bone tissue is depleted and restore structure toallow for repair. Orthopedic biomaterials are capable of producing specific biological action or regenerative responses that are beyond what is observed innormal healing. These materials are often used as substitutes to autograft materials, which are taken from a harvest site in the patient to patch or repair thewounded or unhealthy site. Bone is a biologically active tissue and may or may not regenerate depending on the condition of the patient. The damage may besignificant enough that a scaffold may be necessary to help regenerate the surgical site. Products and Services We have developed and currently manufacture and sell several human tissue-based products, primarily allografts, in the medical marketplacethrough our biologics division. In addition, we also manufacture and sell, directly under our own name and indirectly through distributors, various coatingand surgical drain products through our medical devices division. Biologics Division Our biologics products include OsteoSponge®, OsteoSponge®SC, OsteoWrap®, OsteoLock®, BacFast® HD, OsteoSTXTM and hMatrix® aswell as certain other allograft products which are briefly described below: ¨OsteoSponge® is a form of demineralized bone matrix made from 100% human bone. Derived from trabecular (cancellous) bone, OsteoSponge®provides a natural scaffold for cellular in-growth and exposes bone-forming proteins to the healing environment. The malleable properties ofOsteoSponge® enable it to conform to, and fill, most defects. Upon compressing the allograft, OsteoSponge® springs back to completely fillthe void. Its unique mechanical and biological properties make OsteoSponge® an ideal bone graft for use in various orthopedic practicesincluding spine, neurology, cranial/maxillofacial, trauma, plastic/reconstruction and general procedures where new bone growth is needed. 5 ¨OsteoSponge®SC is a form of OsteoSponge® designed to fill bony defects in the subchondral region of joints. We have received permissionfrom the FDA to market this product as a subchondral bone void filler and are currently marketing it as such. ¨OsteoWrap® is 100% human cortical bone demineralized through a proprietary process to make the graft flexible while maintaining allograftintegrity. This product has various applications in orthopedic, neurological, trauma, oral/maxillofacial and reconstructive procedures. OsteoWrap® can wrap around non-union fractures to assist with fusion, can act as a biologic plate or can be used in conjunction with ahardware plate system. Additionally, this product provides the surgeon with superior handling characteristics as the allograft can be easily sizedusing surgical scissors or a scalpel, and will withhold sutures or staples for fixation. ¨OsteoLock® and BacFast® HD are facet stabilization dowels made from human bone. The shape of our facet stabilization dowel is engineeredto maximize osteoconductivity and surface area contact, as well as provide stability to prevent migration from the surgical site. BacFast® HD,having the same design as OsteoLock®, is optimized through our proprietary demineralization technology. This technology increases thesurface area of the outer collagen matrix of the graft while exposing native bone morphogenic proteins (BMPs) and growth factors. Because ofthe hyper-demineralization technology, BacFast® HD has osteoinductive properties, as well as being osteoconductive. OsteoLock® andBacFast® HD can be used to augment spinal procedures, or as a stand-alone procedure for mild spinal conditions. ¨OsteoSTXTM are demineralized cortical sticks processed from human allograft bone. Utilizing our patented demineralization technology, thegrafts are flexible and feature osteoinductive properties. The nature of demineralized cortical bone provides all the necessary elements for boneregeneration. OsteoSTXTM are designed for posterolateral spine surgery applications ranging from one-level to multi-level fusions, includingscoliosis procedures. This is a new addition to Bacterin’s biologic products portfolio launched in March 2014, designed to increase the numberof implantable grafts per donor and contribute to a more robust product offering in spine. ¨hMatrix® dermal scaffold is an extension of Bacterin's core biologics technology. hMatrix® is an acellular matrix made from donated humandermal tissue that is used to replace a patient's damaged tissue. hMatrix® provides a natural collagen tissue scaffold that promotes cellularingrowth, tissue vascularization and regeneration. The hMatrix® scaffold tissue reabsorbs into the patient's dermal tissue for a biocompatible,natural repair. All of the Company’s biologics are terminally sterilized and packaged to enhance the safety of our grafts for our physician customers and theirpatients. In addition, we make and sell (i) sports allografts which are processed specifically for anterior and posterior cruciate ligament repairs, anteriorcruciate ligament reconstruction and meniscal repair, (ii) milled allografts which are comprised of cortical bone milled to desired shapes and dimensions, alsocalled milled spinal allografts, and (iii) traditional allografts for multi-disciplinary applications including orthopedics, neurology, podiatry, oral/maxillofacial,genitourinary and plastic/reconstructive. The Company’s products are described in multiple physician-initiated studies that continue to prove expanded indications for our products. Medical Device Products Our medical devices division researches, tests and develops coatings for medical devices. This division also produces and distributes OsteoSelect®DBM putty, an osteoinductive and osteoconductive product used by surgeons as a bone void filler. OsteoSelect® DBM putty is engineered with the surgeon in mind. With outstanding handling characteristics, OsteoSelect® can be easily moldedinto any shape and compressed into bony voids. Bacterin has validated a low-dose, low-temperature gamma sterilization process to provide maximumosteoinductive potential while still affording device level sterility. Every production batch of OsteoSelect® is tested for osteoinductive bone growthcharacteristics allowing us to make that unique marketing claim. Our medical devices division also develops custom surgical instruments for use with allografts processed by our biologics division. Theseinstruments offer state-of-the-art design based upon the needs and inputs of surgeons who desire to use advanced minimally invasive techniques. Theseinstruments are intended to provide optimal placement of our proprietary allografts. Additionally, we sell a hubless surgical drain series called ViaTM, whichis used to drain exudate from a surgical site. Via TM is available in five sizes, with and without an attached trocar to aid in placement. Building upon theViaTM platform, Bacterin created a second generation product called Elutia® surgical drains which are performance enhanced via our proprietary coatingtechnology. As a consequence of a joint development project with RyMed Technologies, Inc., we treat RyMed’s InVision-Plus CS™ with a proprietary coatingtechnology. We receive a fixed price for each InVision-Plus CS™ unit treated for RyMed. 6 Technology and Intellectual Property Patents, trademarks and other proprietary rights are very important to our business. We also rely upon trade secrets, manufacturing know-how,continuing technological innovations and licensing opportunities to maintain and improve our competitive position. We review third-party proprietary rights,including patents and patent applications, as available, in an effort to develop an effective intellectual property strategy, avoid infringement of third-partyproprietary rights, identify licensing opportunities and monitor the intellectual property owned by others. Patents On November 5, 2013, the United States Patent and Trademark Office issued US Patent No. 8,574,825 entitled “Process for Demineralization ofBone Matrix with Preservation of Natural Growth Factors.” The issued claims in the patent are for a method to produce a demineralized cancellous bonematrix, such as Bactrin’s OstoSponge® product line. Bacterin has a pending divisional application in the United States to pursue protection of other aspectsof its bone demineralization technology and is pursuing related applications in Canada, Europe and Korea. We have other provisional applications pending inthe United States and other countries that relate to aspects of the technology used in many of our products. Our policy is to file patent applications in theUnited States and other countries when we believe it is commercially advantageous to do so. We do not consider our business to be materially dependent uponany individual patent. Our patent efforts have been, and will continue to be, primarily focused in two key areas: ¨The development of innovative and novel, engineered tissue implants or constructs which employ acellular tissue and processes, and enhanceddemineralized bone matrix products; and ¨The addition of bioactive agents impregnated into or onto metals, polymers or tissues which are intended to protect the surface of medical devicesagainst microbial contamination. We believe our patent filings and patent position will facilitate growth and enhance our proprietary core competencies. We expect that additional patentapplications will be filed and prosecuted as inventions are discovered, technological improvements and processes are developed and specific applications areidentified. There can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain final approval of any patents. Trademarks We believe in the superiority of our technology and products. As a result, we have invested in the development of the names of our products in orderto drive consumer awareness and loyalty to the brand. To protect this investment, we have registered, and continue to seek registration, of these trademarksand continuously monitor and aggressively pursue users of names and marks that potentially infringe upon our registered trademarks. We currently own thefollowing registered trademarks: OsteoSponge®, OsteoWrap®, OsteoLock®, BacFast®, OsteoSelect®, Elutia®, QuickScrew®, hMatrix®, andBACTERINSE®. Trade Secrets To safeguard our proprietary knowledge and technology, we rely heavily upon trade secret protection and non-disclosure/confidentiality agreementswith employees, consultants and third party collaboration partners with access to our confidential information. There can be no assurance, however, that thesemeasures will adequately protect against the unauthorized disclosure or use of confidential information, or that third parties will not be able to independentlydevelop similar technology. Additionally, there can be no assurance that any agreements concerning confidentiality and non-disclosure will not be breached, orif breached, that we will have an adequate remedy to protect us against losses. Although we believe our proprietary technology has value, because of rapidtechnological changes in the medical industry, we also believe that proprietary protection is of less significance than factors such as the intrinsic knowledgeand experience of our management, advisory board, consultants and personnel and their ability to identify unmet market needs and to create, invent, developand market innovative and differentiated products. Donor Procurement We have agreements with multiple tissue banks and we continue to expand our network for donor tissue in anticipation of increased production. Weexpect to be able to continue to build our network for donor tissue as our production capabilities and sales increase. Sales and Marketing We sell our product in the United States through a hybrid distribution network including direct employees and independent distributors. As ofFebruary 2014, we have one Vice President of Sales and two executive vice-presidents to lead this effort, and we have 9 regional managers, 15 salesrepresentatives, 3 distribution managers, 1 associate sales representative and 5 clinical specialists in the field. 7 Growth Strategy In an effort to capitalize on our core markets, as well as new market opportunities, we have diversified our supply of donor tissue, expanded ourproduction capabilities, developed our hybrid sales force and refined the message to our market. We are pursuing a high-level, national effort to present our products as a value proposition to hospital chains and other purchasing organizations. Tothis end, we have entered into agreements with Banner Hospitals, Dignity Health, Franciscan Health System, the Hospital for Special Surgery, WilliamBeaumont Hospital, Catholic Healthcare West, Franciscan Alliance, McLaren Healthcare, Pinnacle Health Systems, Proliance Surgeons, Baptist Health SouthFlorida, MedAssets, Novation, Premier, ROi, and Access Mediquip. These agreements are paving the way for our sales representatives to call on additionalphysicians, as the hospital process has already been approved. Competition The orthopedic biomaterials market is comprised of a great number of players, each offering a multitude of products, and it is expected that severalnew products will emerge over the coming years. Competitors in the orthopedic biomaterials markets include: Medtronic, DePuy/Synthes, Arthrex, Smith &Nephew, Nuvasive, OrthoFix, Biomet, MTF, Stryker, RTI Surgical, AlloSource, Lifenet Health, Integra, ConMed/Linvatec, Wright Medical, Exactech,KCI, Baxter and Alphatec. Government Regulation We are registered with the FDA as a manufacturer of human cellular and tissue products (HCT/Ps) as well as medical devices, and we are anaccredited member of the American Association of Tissue Banks in good standing. We meet all licensing requirements for the distribution of HCT/Ps in stateswith licensing requirements, including Florida, California, Louisiana, Maryland and New York. Our industry is highly regulated and we cannot predict theimpact of future regulations on either us or our customers. Human Tissue Human tissue products, which we sell through our biologics division, have been regulated by the FDA since 1993. In May 2005, three newcomprehensive regulations went into effect that address manufacturing activities associated with HCT/Ps. The first requires that companies that produce anddistribute HCT/Ps register with the FDA. The second provides criteria that must be met for donors to be eligible to donate tissues and is referred to as the“Donor Eligibility” rule. The third rule governs the processing and distribution of the tissues and is often referred to as the “Current Good Tissue Practices”rule. Together, they are designed to ensure that sound, high quality practices are followed to reduce the risk of tissue contamination and of communicabledisease transmission to recipients. Several of our products including OsteoSponge® and OsteoWrap® are regulated as a HCT/P as determined by the TissueReference Group and regulated under Section 361 of the Public Health Service Act and 21 CFR Part 1271. Medical Devices Our medical devices require the clearance of the FDA prior to sale within the United States. The manufacturers and licensees who use our coatingtechnology in their medical devices have the burden of demonstrating the safety and efficacy of the medical devices, and we assist such manufacturers andlicensees in demonstrating safety and efficacy to the extent our coating technologies are at issue. Sales of medical devices using our coating technology in theEuropean Union require CE Mark certification and sales of such medical devices in Canada require approval from the Medical Device Bureau of Canada. Within the United States, the FDA process requires a pre-market notification, or a 510(k) submission, to the FDA to demonstrate that the medicaldevice is safe and effective and is substantially equivalent to a legally marketed device that is not subject to pre-market approval. Applicants must comparethe device to one or more similar devices that are commercially available in the U.S. (known as the “predicate device”), and make and support a claim ofsubstantial equivalency to such predicate device. Support for such claims must include descriptive data and, when necessary, performance data. In somecases, data from clinical trials must also be submitted in support of a 510(k) Submission. The FDA must then issue an order finding substantialequivalency before the devices may be commercially distributed in the U.S. The Center for Devices and Radiological Health regulates medical devices,including our OsteoSelect® DBM putty. 8 ISO Certification In March 2010, we announced that we received certification from the International Organization for Standardization, or ISO, for fulfilling therequirements of ISO 13485:2003, and in February 2013 we announced that we also received ISO certification for our biologics division. ISO 13485:2003specifies requirements for a quality management system. To obtain ISO 13485:2003 certification, an organization must demonstrate its ability to providemedical devices that consistently meet applicable customer and regulatory requirements. The primary objective of ISO 13485:2003 is to facilitate harmonizedmedical device regulatory requirements for quality management systems. All requirements of ISO 13485:2003 are specific to organizations providing medicaldevices, regardless of the type or size of the organization. The certification assures our customers and partners of our commitment to quality, and in thequality of our innovative products and processes. Additionally, we believe that our ISO 13485:2003 certification offers new markets and businessopportunities for our products in the global marketplace. Employees As of February, 2014, we had 128 full-time employees and 131 total employees, of whom 43 were in operations, 38 were in sales, 5 werein marketing, 7 were in R&D, 15 were in QA/QC, and 23 were in administrative functions. In addition, we make use of a varying number of outsourcedservices to manage normal business cycles. None of our employees are covered by a collective bargaining agreement and management considers relations withemployees and service partners to be good. Facilities We lease approximately 16,000 square feet in a building located at 600 Cruiser Lane, Belgrade, Montana 59714. This space includes six Class 100(ISO 5) clean rooms, a fully equipped diagnostics laboratory, microbiology laboratory and testing laboratory. In addition, eight new clean rooms are underconstruction. We lease the building under a ten-year operating lease which runs through August 2023 and has a monthly lease payment of $13,000. The leasealso has a ten-year renewal option. In November 2007, we purchased a 14,000 square foot facility at 664 Cruiser Lane, Belgrade, Montana 59714. This building is an FDA registeredfacility with a Class 10,000 (ISO 7) environmentally controlled area and currently houses our medical device coatings operations. The validatedmanufacturing areas and laboratory facilities located in this facility provide processing and testing space to manufacture medical devices pursuant to FDA,GMP regulations, and ISO 13485:2003. We expect this facility to meet all of our regulatory requirements for the manufacture of current and future Bacterin-label medical device products, including our surgical drains (Via TM and Elutia®), as well as production requirements for coated medical devices from ourmedical device partners. The facility is registered with the FDA for device design, device manufacture, and contract manufacture, as well as for screening,testing, storing, and distributing biological tissues. We also lease space at 732 Cruiser Lane, Belgrade, Montana 59714, where one Class 1,000 (ISO 6) clean room is located, and we lease office spacein Englewood, Colorado, where certain of our administrative functions are housed. 9 ITEM 1A.RISK FACTORS Our business and an investment in our securities are subject to a variety of risks. The following risk factors describe some of the mostsignificant events, facts or circumstances that could have a material adverse effect upon our business, financial condition, results of operations, abilityto implement our business plan and the market price for our securities. Many of these events are outside of our control. If any of these risks actuallyoccurs, our business, financial condition or results of operations may be materially adversely affected. In such case, the trading price of our commonstock could decline and investors in our common stock could lose all or part of their investment. We may not be able to meet financial or other covenant requirements in our current credit facility, and we may not be able to successfullynegotiate waivers or a new credit agreement to cure any covenant violations. Our debt agreements with ROS Acquisition Offshore LP (“ROS”) contain representations, warranties, fees, affirmative and negative covenants,including a minimum cash balance and minimum revenue amounts by quarter, and default provisions, which include departures in key management, if notremedied within 90 days. A breach of any of these covenants could result in a default under these agreements. Upon the occurrence of an event of default underour debt agreements, our lender could elect to declare all amounts outstanding to be immediately due and payable and terminate all commitments to extendfurther credit. If our lender accelerates the repayment of borrowings, we may not have sufficient assets to repay our indebtedness. Also, should there be anevent of default, or should we need to obtain waivers following an event of default, we may be subject to higher borrowing costs and/or more restrictivecovenants in future periods. In addition, to secure the performance of our obligations under the ROS facility, we pledged substantially all of our assets,including our intellectual property, to ROS. Our failure to comply with the covenants under the ROS facility could result in an event of default, the accelerationof our debt and the loss of our assets. We are not currently profitable and we will need to raise additional funds in the future; however, additional funds may not be available onacceptable terms, or at all. We have substantial operating expenses associated with the sales and marketing of our products. The sales and marketing expenses are anticipated tobe funded from operating cash flow. There can be no assurance that we will have sufficient access to liquidity or cash flow to meet our operating expenses andother obligations. If we do not increase our revenue or reduce our expenses, we will need to raise additional capital, which would result in dilution to ourstockholders, or seek additional loans. The incurrence of indebtedness would result in increased debt service obligations and could require us to agree tooperating and financial covenants that would restrict our operations. Financing may not be available in amounts or on terms acceptable to us, if at all. Anyfailure by us to raise additional funds on terms favorable to us, or at all, could result in our inability to pay our expenses as they come due, limit our ability toexpand our business operations, and harm our overall business prospects. We may not be able to raise capital or, if we can, it may not be on favorable terms. We may seek to raise additional capital through public or privateequity financings, partnerships, joint ventures, dispositions of assets, debt financings or restructurings, bank borrowings or other sources. To obtainadditional funding, we may need to enter into arrangements that require us to relinquish rights to certain technologies, products and/or potential markets. Ifadequate funds are not otherwise available, we would be forced to curtail operations significantly, including reducing our sales and marketing expenses whichcould negatively impact product sales and we could even be forced to cease operations, liquidate our assets and possibly even seek bankruptcy protection. We may not continue to satisfy the continued listing requirements of the NYSE MKT exchange. We are currently listed on the NYSE MKT exchange, which imposes both objective and subjective requirements for continued listing. Continuedlisting criteria include the financial condition of the company, market capitalization, shareholder equity, total assets, annual revenue, and low selling price. Our common stock is currently trading at less than $1.00 per share, we are operating at a loss, we have negative shareholder equity, and our marketcapitalization, total assets and annual revenue are all currently less than $50 million, so our continued listing is at risk. If the NYSE MKT determines thatwe fail to satisfy the requirements for continued listing, we could be de-listed from the exchange, which could result in reduced liquidity for our shareholders. There can be no assurance that we will satisfy the continued listing requirements of the NYSE MKT or that we will continue to be listed on any exchange. On May 13, 2013, we received a deficiency notice from the NYSE MKT exchange notifying us that we are not in compliance with Section1003(a)(iii) of the Company Guide with stockholders’ equity of less than $6,000,000 and net losses in five of our most recent fiscal years and Section1003(a)(ii) with stockholders’ equity of less than $4,000,000 and net losses in three of our four most recent fiscal years. On June 12, 2013 we submitted a planto regain compliance with the continued listing requirements, and on June 21, 2013 the NYSE MKT informed us of the acceptance of our plan and gave us anextension until November 13, 2014 to regain compliance with the continued listing standards. On November 19, 2013, we received another letter from theNYSE MKT notifying us that we are not in compliance with Section 1003(a)(i) of the Company Guide with stockholders’ equity of less than $2,000,000 as ofSeptember 30, 2013 and net losses in two of three of our most recent fiscal years, and we submitted an amended plan to regain compliance. We will continue tobe subject to periodic review by the NYSE MKT during the extension period and failure to make progress consistent with our Plan or to regain compliance bythe end of the extension period could result in our delisting from the Exchange. 10 In order to regain compliance, we will either need to increase our market capitalization or shareholders’ equity. In order to increase our shareholder’sequity, we may need to raise substantial equity capital, which would be dilutive to existing shareholders and may require shareholder approval. We currentlyhave less than 20,000,000 shares available for issuance on a fully diluted basis. To raise sufficient equity capital to achieve $6 million in shareholder equity,we may need to increase the number of authorized shares available for issuance, which requires shareholder approval. There can be no assurance that we willobtain any necessary shareholder approval or raise sufficient equity capital to regain compliance with the NYSE MKT continued listing standards. The impact of United States healthcare reform legislation remains uncertain. In 2010 federal legislation to reform the United States healthcare system was enacted into law. The law was upheld by a Supreme Court decisionannounced in June 2012. The legislation is far-reaching and is intended to expand access to health insurance coverage, improve quality and reduce costs overtime. Among other things, the new law imposes a 2.3 percent excise tax on medical devices beginning January 2013, which applies to United States sales of ourmedical device products, including our wound drains and OsteoSelect® DBM putty. Due to multi-year pricing agreements and competitive pricing pressure inour industry, there can be no assurance that we will be able to pass the cost of the device tax on to our customers. Other provisions of this legislation,including Medicare provisions aimed at improving quality and decreasing costs, comparative effectiveness research, an independent payment advisory board,and pilot programs to evaluate alternative payment methodologies, could meaningfully change the way healthcare is developed and delivered. We cannot predictthe impact of this legislation or other healthcare programs and regulations that may ultimately be implemented at the federal or state level, the effect of anyfuture legislation or regulation in the United States or internationally or whether any changes will have the effect of lowering prices for our products or reducingmedical procedure volumes. We face risks and uncertainties relating to an OIG subpoena. In February 2013, we received a subpoena from the Office of the Inspector General of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (“OIG”)seeking documents in connection with an investigation into possible false or otherwise improper claims submitted to Medicare. The subpoena requesteddocuments related to physician referral programs operated by the Company, which we believe refers to the Company’s prior practice of compensatingphysicians for performing certain educational and promotional services on behalf of the Company. This program was discontinued in 2010. We provided aninitial response to the OIG subpoena and have not received any further correspondence or requests from the OIG. Although it does not appear that the OIG isactively pursuing the investigation at the present time, we cannot assure you that the OIG will not resume the investigation in the future. Any furtherinvestigation by the OIG could divert management’s attention from business demands and subject us to significant legal expenses. Pricing pressure and cost containment measures could have a negative impact on our future operating results. Pricing pressure has increased in our industry due to continued consolidation among healthcare providers, trends toward managed care, the shifttowards government becoming the primary payer of healthcare expenses, and government laws and regulations relating to reimbursement and pricing generally.Pricing pressure, reductions in reimbursement levels or coverage or other cost containment measures could unfavorably affect our future operating results andfinancial condition. Future regulatory action remains uncertain. We operate in a highly regulated environment, and any legal or regulatory action could be time-consuming and costly. If we fail to comply with allapplicable laws, standards and regulations, action by the FDA or other regulatory agencies could result in significant restrictions, including restrictions on themarketing or use of our products or the withdrawal of products from the market. Any such restrictions or withdrawals could materially affect our businessand operations. In addition, governmental authorities could impose fines, seize our inventory of products, or force us to recall any product already in themarket if we fail to comply with governmental regulations. Competition from former Chief Executive Officer We believe our former Chief Executive Officer, Guy Cook, has acquired an ownership interest in a tissue bank that sells competitive products.Because our former CEO has in depth knowledge about our customers, employees, consultants, products, policies, practices and prospects, and is not boundby a non-compete agreement, we may be adversely affected by increased competition with that business. Many competitive products exist and more will be developed, and we may not be able to successfully compete because we are smaller andhave fewer financial resources. Our business is in a very competitive and evolving field. Rapid new developments in this field have occurred over the past few years, and areexpected to continue to occur. Other companies already have competing products available or may develop products to compete with ours. Many of theseproducts have short regulatory timeframes and our competitors, many with more substantial development resources, may be able to develop competingproducts that are equal to or better than ours. This may make our products obsolete or undesirable by comparison and reduce our revenue. Our success willdepend, in large part, on our ability to maintain a competitive position concerning our intellectual property, and to develop new technologies and newapplications for our technologies. Many of our competitors have substantially greater financial and technical resources, as well as greater production andmarketing capabilities, and our ability to compete remains uncertain. 11 The medical community and the general public may perceive synthetic materials and growth factors as safer, which could have a materialadverse effect on our business. Members of the medical community and the general public may perceive synthetic materials and growth factors as safer than our allograft-basedbone tissue products. Our products may be incapable of competing successfully with synthetic bone graft substitutes and growth factors developed andcommercialized by others, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Negative publicity concerning methods of human tissue recovery and screening of donor tissue in the industry in which we operate mayreduce demand for our allografts and impact the supply of available donor tissue. Media reports or other negative publicity concerning both improper methods of tissue recovery from donors and disease transmission from donatedtissue may limit widespread acceptance of our allografts. Unfavorable reports of improper or illegal tissue recovery practices, both in the United States andinternationally, as well as incidents of improperly processed tissue leading to transmission of disease, may broadly affect the rate of future tissue donation andmarket acceptance of allograft technologies. Potential patients may not be able to distinguish our allografts, technologies and the tissue recovery and theprocessing procedures from those of our competitors or others engaged in tissue recovery. In addition, families of potential donors may become reluctant toagree to donate tissue to for-profit tissue processors. We are highly dependent on the availability of human donors; any disruptions could cause our customers to seek alternative providers ortechnologies. We are highly dependent on our ability to obtain donor cadavers as the raw material for many of our products. The availability of acceptable donorsis relatively limited and we compete with many other companies for this limited availability. The availability of donors is also impacted by regulatorychanges, general public opinion of the donor process and our reputation for our handling of the donor process. In addition, due to seasonal changes in themortality rates, some scarce tissues are at times in short supply. Any disruption in the supply of this crucial raw material could have significantconsequences for our revenue, operating results and continued operations. We will need to continue to innovate and develop new products to be desirable to our customers. The markets for our products and services are characterized by rapid technological change, frequent new introductions, changes in customers’demands and evolving industry standards. Accordingly, we will need to continue to innovate and develop additional products. These efforts can be costly,subject to long development and regulatory delays and may not result in products approved for sale. These costs may hurt operating results and may requireadditional capital. If additional capital is not available, we may be forced to curtail development activities. In addition, any failure on our behalf to react tochanging market conditions could create an opportunity for other market participants to capture a critical share of the market within a short period of time. Our success will depend on our ability to engage and retain qualified technical personnel who are difficult to attract. Our success will depend on our ability to attract and retain qualified technical personnel to assist in research and development, testing, productimplementation, low-scale production and technical support. The demand for such personnel is high and the supply of qualified technical personnel islimited. A significant increase in the wages paid by competing employers could result in a reduction of our technical work force and increases in the wagerates that we must pay or both. If either of these events were to occur, our cost structure could increase and our growth potential could be impaired. Loss of key members of our management who we need to succeed could adversely affect our business. We are highly dependent on the services of key members of our management team, and the loss of any of their services could have an adverse effecton our future operations. We do not currently maintain key-man life insurance policies insuring the life of any member of our management team. We are highly dependent on the continued availability of our facilities and would be harmed if they were unavailable for any prolongedperiod of time. Any failure in the physical infrastructure of our facilities or services could lead to significant costs and disruptions that could reduce our revenuesand harm our business reputation and financial results. We are highly reliant on our Belgrade, Montana facilities. Any natural or man-made event thatimpacts our ability to utilize these facilities could have a significant impact on our operating results, reputation and ability to continue operations. Theregulatory process for approval of facilities is time-consuming and our ability to rebuild facilities would take a considerable amount of time and expense andcause a significant disruption in service to our customers. Further, the FDA or some other regulatory agency could identify deficiencies in future inspectionsof our facilities or our supplies that could disrupt our business, reducing profitability. 12 We will be required to invest in facilities and equipment on a continuing basis, which will put pressure on us to finance these investments. We have invested, and intend to continue to invest, in facilities and state-of-the-art equipment in order to increase, expand or update our capabilitiesand facilities. Changes in technology or sales growth beyond currently established production capabilities, which we anticipate, will require furtherinvestment. We currently anticipate that we will need to spend between $4 and $5 million over the next five years in order to increase, expand or update ourexisting facilities to meet our expected growth over that period. However, there can be no assurance that we will generate sufficient funds from operations tomaintain our existing facilities and equipment or to finance any required capital investments or that other sources of funding will be available. Additionally,there can be no guarantee that any future expansion will not negatively affect earnings. Future revenue will depend on our ability to increase sales. We currently sell our products through direct sales by our employees and indirectly through distributor relationships. We incurred increased salesand marketing expenses in building and expanding our direct sales force, and there can be no assurance that we will generate increased sales as a result of thiseffort. There may be fluctuations in our operating results, which will impact our stock price. Significant annual and quarterly fluctuations in our results of operations may be caused by, among other factors, our volume of revenues, the timingof new product or service announcements, releases by us and our competitors in the marketplace of new products or services, seasonality and generaleconomic conditions. There can be no assurance that the level of revenues achieved by us in any particular fiscal period will not be significantly lower than inother comparable fiscal periods. Our expense levels are based, in part, on our expectations as to future revenues. As a result, if future revenues are belowexpectations, net income or loss may be disproportionately affected by a reduction in revenues, as any corresponding reduction in expenses may not beproportionate to the reduction in revenues. We are dependent on the ability of our licensees and development partners for obtaining regulatory approvals and market acceptance oftheir products, for which we may have no control. Our success may depend on our ability, or that of our licensees, to obtain timely regulatory approval for products employing our technology. Moreover, our success may also depend on whether, and how quickly, our licensees gain market acceptance of products incorporating our technology,compared to competitors using competing technologies. Our revenues will depend upon prompt and adequate reimbursement from public and private insurers and national health systems. Political, economic and regulatory influences are subjecting the healthcare industry in the United States to fundamental change. The ability ofhospitals to pay fees for allograft bone tissue products depends in part on the extent to which reimbursement for the costs of such materials and relatedtreatments will continue to be available from governmental health administration authorities, private health coverage insurers and other organizations. We mayhave difficulty gaining market acceptance for our products if government and third-party payors do not provide adequate coverage and reimbursement tohospitals. Major third-party payors of hospital services and hospital outpatient services, including Medicare, Medicaid and private healthcare insurers,annually revise their payment methodologies, which can result in stricter standards for reimbursement of hospital charges for certain medical procedures or theelimination of reimbursement. Further, Medicare, Medicaid and private healthcare insurer cutbacks could create downward price pressure on our products. Our operating results will be harmed if we are unable to effectively manage and sustain our future growth. We might not be able to manage our future growth efficiently or profitably. Our business is unproven on a large scale and actual revenue andoperating margins, or revenue and margin growth, may be less than expected. If we are unable to scale our production capabilities efficiently, we may fail toachieve expected operating margins, which would have a material and adverse effect on our operating results. Growth may also stress our ability to adequatelymanage our operations, quality of products, safety and regulatory compliance. In order to grow, we may be required to obtain additional financing, whichmay increase our indebtedness or result in dilution to our stockholders. Further, there can be no assurance that we would be able to obtain any additionalfinancing. Future business combinations or acquisitions may be difficult to integrate and cause our attention to be diverted. We may pursue various business combinations with other companies or strategic acquisitions of complementary businesses, product lines ortechnologies. There can be no assurance that such acquisitions will be available at all, or on terms acceptable to us. These transactions may requireadditional financing which may increase our indebtedness or outstanding shares, resulting in dilution to stockholders. The inability to obtain such futurefinancing may inhibit our growth and operating results. Integration of acquisitions or additional products can be time consuming, difficult and expensive andmay significantly impact operating results. Furthermore, the integration of any acquisition may divert management’s time and resources from our corebusiness. We may sell some or all of our product lines to other companies or may agree to combine with another company. Selling some of our product linesmay inhibit our ability to generate positive operating results going forward. 13 We may be subject to future product liability litigation that could be expensive and our insurance coverage may not be adequate in acatastrophic situation. Although we are not currently subject to any product liability proceedings, and we have no reserves for product liability disbursements, we mayincur material liabilities relating to product liability claims in the future, including product liability claims arising out of the usage of our products. Wecurrently carry product liability insurance, however, our insurance coverage and any reserves we may maintain in the future for product related liabilities maynot be adequate and our business could suffer material adverse consequences. We may implement a product recall or voluntary market withdrawal due to product defects or product enhancements and modifications,which would significantly increase our costs. The manufacturing and marketing of our biologic products, medical devices and coating technologies involves an inherent risk that our productsmay prove to be defective. In that event, we may voluntarily implement a recall or market withdrawal or may be required to do so by a regulatory authority. Arecall or withdrawal of one of our products, or a similar product manufactured by another manufacturer, could impair sales of the products we market as aresult of confusion concerning the scope of the recall or withdrawal, or as a result of the damage to our reputation for quality and safety. U.S. governmental regulation could restrict the use of our products or our procurement of tissue. In the United States, the procurement and transplantation of allograft bone tissue is subject to federal law pursuant to the National Organ TransplantAct, or NOTA, a criminal statute which prohibits the purchase and sale of human organs used in human transplantation, including bone and related tissue,for “valuable consideration.” NOTA permits reasonable payments associated with the removal, transportation, processing, preservation, quality control,implantation and storage of human bone tissue. We provide services in all of these areas in the United States, with the exception of removal and implantation,and receive payments for all such services. We make payments to certain of our clients and tissue banks for their services related to recovering allograft bonetissue on our behalf. If NOTA is interpreted or enforced in a manner which prevents us from receiving payment for services we render or which prevents usfrom paying tissue banks or certain of our clients for the services they render for us, our business could be materially and adversely affected. We are engaged through our marketing employees, independent sales agents and sales representatives in ongoing efforts designed to educate themedical community as to the benefits of our products, and we intend to continue our educational activities. Although we believe that NOTA permits paymentsin connection with these educational efforts as reasonable payments associated with the processing, transportation and implantation of our products, paymentsin connection with such education efforts are not exempt from NOTA’s restrictions and our inability to make such payments in connection with our educationefforts may prevent us from paying our sales representatives for their education efforts and could adversely affect our business and prospects. No federalagency or court has determined whether NOTA is, or will be, applicable to every allograft bone tissue-based material which our processing technologies maygenerate. Assuming that NOTA applies to our processing of allograft bone tissue, we believe that we comply with NOTA, but there can be no assurance thatmore restrictive interpretations of, or amendments to, NOTA will not be adopted in the future which would call into question one or more aspects of ourmethod of operations. Our business is subject to continuing regulatory compliance by the FDA and other authorities which is costly and could result in delaysin the commercialization of our products. As a manufacturer and marketer of medical devices, we are subject to extensive regulation by the FDA and the Center for Medicare Services of theU.S. Department of Health and Human Services and other federal governmental agencies and, in some jurisdictions, by state and foreign governmentalauthorities. These regulations govern the introduction of new medical devices, the observance of certain standards with respect to the design, manufacture,testing, labeling, promotion and sales of the devices, the maintenance of certain records, the ability to track devices, the reporting of potential product defects,the import and export of devices and other matters. We are facing an increasing amount of scrutiny and compliance costs as more states are implementingregulations governing medical devices, pharmaceuticals and/or biologics which affect many of our products. Medical devices that incorporate coatings technology are subject to FDA regulation and compliance. Generally, any medical device manufacturer thatwishes to incorporate our coatings technology into its products will be responsible for obtaining FDA approval for the medical devices it intends to marketthough we will assist in the 510(k) filing submitted by licensees. The FDA process can take several months to several years in the United States. The timerequired to obtain approval for international sales may be longer or shorter, depending on the laws of the particular country. There can be no assurance thatour licensees will be able to obtain FDA or international approval on a timely basis. The FDA may also require the more extensive Premarket ApprovalApplication, or PMA, process for certain products, which requires an additional level of FDA scientific review to ensure the safety and effectiveness of suchdevices. Approval or clearance may place substantial restrictions on the indications for which the product may be marketed or to whom it may be marketed,warnings that may be required to accompany the product or additional restrictions placed on the sale and/or use of the product. Changes in regulations oradoption of new regulations could also cause delays in obtaining product approval. In addition, regulatory approval is subject to continuing compliance withregulatory standards, and product approval is subject to withdrawal if a licensee fails to comply with standards, or if an unforeseen event should occurconcerning a product. Significant delays in obtaining product approval could have a significantly detrimental impact on our business. 14 Human tissues intended for transplantation have been regulated by the FDA since 1993. In May 2005, three new comprehensive regulations wentinto effect that address manufacturing activities associated with human cells, tissues and cellular and tissue-based products, or HCT/Ps. The first requiresthat companies that produce and distribute HCT/Ps register with the FDA. The second provides criteria that must be met for donors to be eligible to donatetissues and is referred to as the “Donor Eligibility” rule. The third rule governs the processing and distribution of the tissues and is often referred to as the“Current Good Tissue Practices” rule. The “Current Good Tissue Practices” rule covers all stages of allograft processing, from procurement of tissue todistribution of final allografts. Together they are designed to ensure that sound, high quality practices are followed to reduce the risk of tissue contaminationand of communicable disease transmission to recipients. These regulations increased regulatory scrutiny within the industry in which we operate and havelead to increased enforcement action which affects the conduct of our business. In addition, these regulations can increase the cost of tissue recovery activities. Other regulatory entities include state agencies with statutes covering tissue banking. Regulations issued by Florida, New York, California andMaryland will be particularly relevant to our business. Most states do not currently have tissue banking regulations. It is possible that others may makeallegations against us or against donor recovery groups or tissue banks about non-compliance with applicable FDA regulations or other relevant statutes orregulations. Allegations like these could cause regulators or other authorities to take investigative or other action, or could cause negative publicity for ourbusiness and the industry in which we operate. Our products may be subject to regulation in the EU as well should we enter that market. In the European Union, or EU, regulations, if applicable,differ from one EU member state to the next. Because of the absence of a harmonized regulatory framework and the proposed regulation for advanced therapymedicinal products in the EU, as well as for other countries, the approval process for human derived cell or tissue based medical products may be extensive,lengthy, expensive and unpredictable. Some of our products may be subject to European Union member states’ regulations that govern the donation,procurement, testing, coding, traceability, processing, preservation, storage, and distribution of human tissues and cells and cellular or tissue-basedproducts. Some EU member states have their own tissue banking regulations. Clinical trials can be long, expensive and ultimately uncertain which could jeopardize our ability to obtain regulatory approval andmarket our products. Clinical trials are required to develop products, gain market acceptance and obtain 510(k) certifications from the FDA. These trials often takeseveral years to execute and are subject to factors within and outside of our control. The outcome of any trial is uncertain and may have a significant impact onthe success of our current and future products and future profits. The commencement or completion of any clinical trial may be delayed or halted for numerous reasons, including, but not limited to, a regulatorybody placing clinical trials on hold, patients not enrolling in clinical trials at the rate we expect, patients experiencing adverse side effects, third partycontractors failing to perform in accordance with our anticipated schedule or consistent with good clinical practices, inclusive or negative interim trial resultsor our inability to obtain sufficient quantities of raw materials to produce our products. Our development costs may increase if we have material delays inclinical trials or if we need to perform more or larger clinical trials than planned. If this occurs, our financial results and the commercial prospects for ourproducts may be harmed. Product pricing (and, therefore, profitability) is subject to regulatory control which could impact our revenue and financial performance. The pricing and profitability of our products may become subject to control by the government and other third-party payors. The continuing effortsof governmental and other third-party payors to contain or reduce the cost of healthcare through various means may adversely affect our ability to successfullycommercialize our products. In most foreign markets, the pricing and/or profitability of certain diagnostics and prescription pharmaceuticals are subject togovernmental control. In the United States, we expect that there will continue to be federal and state proposals to implement similar governmental controlthough it is unclear which proposals will ultimately become law, if any. Changes in prices, including any mandated pricing, could impact our revenue andfinancial performance. Failure to protect our intellectual property rights could result in costly and time consuming litigation and our loss of any potentialcompetitive advantage. Our success will depend, to a large extent, on our ability to successfully obtain and maintain patents, prevent misappropriation or infringement ofintellectual property, maintain trade secret protection, and conduct operations without violating or infringing on the intellectual property rights of third parties. There can be no assurance that our patented and patent-pending technologies will provide us with a competitive advantage, that we will be able to develop oracquire additional technology that is patentable, or that third parties will not develop and offer technologies which are similar to ours. Moreover, we canprovide no assurance that confidentiality agreements, trade secrecy agreements or similar agreements intended to protect unpatented technology will provide theintended protection. Intellectual property litigation is extremely expensive and time-consuming, and it is often difficult, if not impossible, to predict theoutcome of such litigation. A failure by us to protect our intellectual property could have a materially adverse effect on our business and operating results andour ability to successfully compete in this industry. 15 We may not be able to obtain or protect our proprietary rights relating to our products without resorting to costly and time consuminglitigation. We may not be able to obtain, maintain and protect certain proprietary rights necessary for the development and commercialization of our products orproduct candidates. Our commercial success will depend in part on obtaining and maintaining patent protection on our products and successfully defendingthese patents against third-party challenges. Our ability to commercialize our products will also depend in part on the patent positions of third parties,including those of our competitors. The patent positions of pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies can be highly uncertain and involve complex legaland factual questions. Accordingly, we cannot predict with certainty the scope and breadth of patent claims that may be afforded to other companies’ patents. We could incur substantial costs in litigation if we are required to defend against patent suits brought by third parties, or if we initiate suits to protect ourpatent rights. In addition to the risks involved with patent protection, we also face the risk that our competitors will infringe on our trademarks. Any infringementcould lead to a likelihood of confusion and could result in lost sales. There can be no assurance that we will prevail in any claims we make to protect our intellectual property. Future protection for our proprietary rights is uncertain which may impact our ability to successfully compete in our industry. The degree of future protection for our proprietary rights is uncertain. We cannot ensure that: ¨we were the first to make the inventions covered by each of our patent applications; ¨we were the first to file patent applications for these inventions; ¨others will not independently develop similar or alternative technologies or duplicate any of our technologies; ¨any of our pending patent applications will result in issued patents; ¨any of our issued patents or those of our licensors will be valid and enforceable; ¨any patents issued to us or our collaborators will provide a basis for commercially viable products or will provide us with any competitiveadvantages or will not be challenged by third parties; ¨we will develop additional proprietary technologies that are patentable; ¨the patents of others will not have a material adverse effect on our business rights; or ¨the measures we rely on to protect the intellectual property underlying our products will be adequate to prevent third parties from using ourtechnology, all of which could harm our ability to compete in the market. Our success depends on our ability to avoid infringing on the intellectual property rights of third parties which could expose us tolitigation or commercially unfavorable licensing arrangements. Our commercial success depends in part on our ability and the ability of our collaborators to avoid infringing patents and proprietary rights of thirdparties. Third parties may accuse us or our collaborators of employing their proprietary technology in our products, or in the materials or processes used toresearch or develop our products, without authorization. Any legal action against our collaborators or us claiming damages and/or seeking to stop ourcommercial activities relating to the affected products, materials and processes could, in addition to subjecting us to potential liability for damages, require ourcollaborators or us to obtain a license to continue to utilize the affected materials or processes or to manufacture or market the affected products. We cannotpredict whether we or our collaborators would prevail in any of these actions or whether any license required under any of these patents would be madeavailable on commercially reasonable terms, if at all. If we are unable to obtain such a license, we or our collaborators may be unable to continue to utilize theaffected materials or processes or manufacture or market the affected products or we may be obligated by a court to pay substantial royalties and/or otherdamages to the patent holder. Even if we are able to obtain such a license, the terms of such a license could substantially reduce the commercial value of theaffected product or products and impair our prospects for profitability. Accordingly, we cannot predict whether or to what extent the commercial value of theaffected product or products or our prospects for profitability may be harmed as a result of any of the liabilities discussed above. Furthermore, infringementand other intellectual property claims, with or without merit, can be expensive and time-consuming to litigate and can divert management’s attention from ourcore business. We may be unable to obtain and enforce intellectual property rights to adequately protect our products and related intellectual property. 16 Others may claim an ownership interest in our intellectual property which could expose us to litigation and have a significant adverseeffect on our prospects. A third-party may claim an ownership interest in our intellectual property. While we believe we own 100% of the right, title and interest in the patentsfor which we have applied and our other intellectual property, including that which we license from third parties, we cannot guarantee that a third-party willnot, at some time, assert a claim or an interest in any of such patents or intellectual property. A successful challenge or claim by a third party to our patents orintellectual property could have a significant adverse effect on our prospects. Litigation may result in financial loss and/or impact our ability to sell our products going forward. We intend to vigorously defend any future intellectual property litigation that may arise but there can be no assurance that we will prevail in thesematters. An unfavorable judgment may result in a financial burden on us. An unfavorable judgment may also result in restrictions on our ability to sellcertain products and therefore may impact future operating results. Because we became public through a reverse merger, and our stock is currently trading below $1.00 per share, we may not be able toattract the attention of major brokerage firms or certain investors. There are coverage risks associated with our becoming public through a reverse merger, including, among other things, security analysts of majorbrokerage firms may not provide coverage of us since there is no incentive to brokerage firms to recommend the purchase of our common stock. In addition,we may not attract the attention of major brokerage firms and certain investors due to our low stock price. We cannot assure you that brokerage firms wouldwant to conduct any public offerings on our behalf in the future. The market price of our common stock is extremely volatile, which may affect our ability to raise capital in the future and may subject thevalue of your investment to sudden decreases. The market price for securities of biotechnology companies, including ours, historically has been highly volatile, and the market from time to timehas experienced significant price and volume fluctuations that are unrelated to the operating performance of such companies. Fluctuations in the trading priceor liquidity of our common stock may harm the value of your investment in our common stock. Factors that may have a significant impact on the market price and marketability of our securities include: ¨announcements of technological innovations or new commercial products by us, our collaborative partners or our present or potentialcompetitors; ¨our issuance of debt, equity or other securities, which we need to pursue to generate additional funds to cover our operating expenses; ¨our quarterly operating results; ¨developments or disputes concerning patent or other proprietary rights; ¨developments in our relationships with employees, suppliers or collaborative partners; ¨acquisitions or divestitures; ¨litigation and government proceedings; 17 ¨adverse legislation, including changes in governmental regulation; ¨third-party reimbursement policies; ¨changes in securities analysts’ recommendations; ¨short selling; ¨changes in health care policies and practices; ¨halting or suspension of trading in our common stock by NYSE MKT; ¨economic and other external factors; and ¨general market conditions. In the past, following periods of volatility in the market price of a company’s securities, securities class action litigation has often been instituted.These lawsuits often seek unspecified damages, and as with any litigation proceeding, one cannot predict with certainty the eventual outcome of pendinglitigation. Furthermore, we may have to incur substantial expenses in connection with any such lawsuits and our management’s attention and resources couldbe diverted from operating our business as we respond to any such litigation. We maintain insurance to cover these risks for us and our directors and officers,but our insurance is subject to high deductibles to reduce premium expense, and there is no guarantee that the insurance will cover any specific claim that wecurrently face or may face in the future, or that it will be adequate to cover all potential liabilities and damages. Shares of common stock are equity securities and are subordinate to any indebtedness. Shares of our common stock are common equity interests. This means that our common stock will rank junior to any outstanding shares of ourpreferred stock that we may issue in the future or to our current credit agreement and any future indebtedness we may incur and to all creditor claims and othernon-equity claims against us and our assets available to satisfy claims on us, including claims in a bankruptcy or similar proceeding. Additionally, unlike indebtedness, where principal and interest customarily are payable on specified due dates, in the case of our common stock, (i)dividends are payable only when and if declared by our board of directors or a duly authorized committee of our board of directors, and (ii) as a corporation,we are restricted to making dividend payments and redemption payments out of legally available assets. We have never paid a dividend on our common stockand have no current intention to pay dividends in the future. Furthermore, our common stock places no restrictions on our business or operations or on ourability to incur indebtedness or engage in any transactions, subject only to the voting rights available to shareholders generally. Our stockholders may experience significant dilution if future equity offerings are used to fund operations or acquire complementarybusinesses. If our future operations or acquisitions are financed through the issuance of equity securities, our stockholders could experience significant dilution.In addition, securities issued in connection with future financing activities or potential acquisitions may have rights and preferences senior to the rights andpreferences of our common stock. We also have established an equity incentive plan for our management, consultants and employees. We expect to grantrestricted stock and options to purchase shares of our common stock to our directors, employees and consultants and we will grant additional options in thefuture. The issuance of shares of our common stock upon the exercise of these options may result in dilution to our stockholders. We do not anticipate paying dividends in the foreseeable future; you should not buy our stock if you expect dividends. We currently intend to retain our future earnings to support operations and to finance expansion and, therefore, we do not anticipate paying any cashdividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future. 18 We could issue “blank check” preferred stock without stockholder approval with the effect of diluting then current stockholder interestsand impairing their voting rights, and provisions in our charter documents and under Delaware law could discourage a takeover thatstockholders may consider favorable. Our certificate of incorporation provides for the authorization to issue up to 5,000,000 shares of “blank check” preferred stock with designations,rights and preferences as may be determined from time to time by our board of directors. Our board of directors is empowered, without stockholder approval,to issue one or more series of preferred stock with dividend, liquidation, conversion, voting or other rights which could dilute the interest of, or impair thevoting power of, our common stockholders. The issuance of a series of preferred stock could be used as a method of discouraging, delaying or preventing achange in control. For example, it would be possible for our board of directors to issue preferred stock with voting or other rights or preferences that couldimpede the success of any attempt to change control of our company. In addition, we have a staggered board of directors and advanced notice is required priorto stockholder proposals, which might further delay a change of control.

The following is a summary of the material terms of our Plan and the inducement grant to our Chief Executive Officer. The purpose of the Bacterin International Equity Incentive Plan is to enable us to attract, retain and motivate key employees, directors andindependent consultants, by providing them with stock options and restricted stock grants.

The administrator of the plan has the power to determine the terms of any stock options granted underthe incentive plan, including the exercise price, the number of shares subject to the stock option and conditions of exercise. Stock options granted under theincentive plan are generally not transferable, vest in installments and are exercisable during the lifetime of the optionee only by such optionee. The exerciseprice of all incentive stock options granted under the incentive plan must be at least equal to the fair market value of the shares of common stock on the date ofthe grant. The specific terms of each stock option grant are reflected in a written stock option agreement. There are 9,000,000 shares of our common stock authorized to be issued under the Plan. As of December 31, 2013, we had outstanding options topurchase 5,583,285 shares and 643,500 shares of restricted stock issued, to directors, executives, employees and consultants, leaving approximately1,006,648 shares available for issuance thereunder.

The increase of $93,515was largely the result of increased sales generated from our direct sales force and independent distributors compared to 2012. Since 2009, we have beentransitioning from a 100% distributor based sales model to a hybrid model which includes sales from our direct sales force as well as independent distributorswhich has increased the market penetration of our products. Cost of tissue sales Costs of tissue sales consist primarily of tissue and device manufacturing costs. Costs of tissue sales increased by 37.2% or $3,848,416 to $14,185,719 forthe year ended December 31, 2013 from $10,337,303 for the year ended December 31, 2012. As a percentage of tissue sales, cost of tissue sales was 42.9% ofrevenues for 2013 compared to 31.3% in 2012. The increase is the result of changes in product mix, one time adjustments for aged and expiring inventory, andscrap resulting from process improvements for the hMatrix product line. Excluding the adjustments for aged and expiring inventory and the scrap related toprocess improvements, cost of tissue sales was 36.2% of revenues in 2013. 22 Operating Expenses Operating expenses include general and administrative expenses, selling and marketing expenses, depreciation, research and development expenses, andcompensation costs, including incentive compensation. Operating expenses increased 1%, or $308,125, for the year ended December 31, 2013 compared tothe year ended December 31, 2012, primarily due to the reasons set forth below. General and Administrative General and administrative expenses consist principally of corporate personnel cash based and stock option compensation related costs and corporate expensesfor legal, accounting and other professional fees as well as occupancy costs. General and administrative expenses decreased 3%, or $358,038, to$10,777,020, for the year ended December 31, 2013 compared to 2012. Selling and Marketing Selling and marketing expenses primarily consist of costs for trade shows, sales conventions and meetings, travel expenses, advertising and other sales andmarketing related costs. In addition, stock option compensation expense associated with our sales force is also included in sales and marketing expenses.Selling and marketing expenses increased 3%, or $399,813, to $16,017,229 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2013 from $15,617,416 for theprior year. As a percentage of revenue, selling and marketing expenses increased slightly to 48.5% in 2013 from 47.4% in the prior year. The Company is inthe process of dramatically reorganizing the sales function with the goal of increasing the efficiency and productivity of the sales force. Depreciation Depreciation expense consists of depreciation of long-lived property and equipment. Depreciation expense decreased 7% to $377,524 for the year endedDecember 31, 2013 from $406,888 in 2012. Non-cash Consulting Expense Non-cash consulting expense consists of non-cash expense associated with granting restricted stock to consultants. Non-cash consulting expense decreased$432,904 to negative $5,117 for the year ended December 31, 2013 from $427,787 in the prior year, a decrease of 101%. The decrease is due to the lowerclosing price of the Company’s common stock during 2013 which also resulted in previously accrued non-cash consulting expense to be revised downward. Interest Expense Interest expense is from our promissory notes and debt instruments. Interest expense for 2013 increased $2,788,331 to $4,653,232 as compared to$1,864,901 in 2012. The increase was the result a higher average debt balance in 2013 and the higher interest rate related to the 2012 debt financing with ROSAcquisition Offshore LP. Change in Warrant Derivative Liability For 2013, the Company recorded a gain from a decrease in its non cash warrant derivative liability of $875,041 which was primarily driven by the decreasein the closing price of the Company’s common stock at December 31, 2013 compared to December 31, 2012 which was partially offset by the issuance ofadditional derivative warrants in 2013. The liability is associated with the issuance of warrants as part of the Company’s prior convertible debt financing, theCompany’s 2010 financing and the Company’s 2013 equity financing which contain anti dilution adjustment provisions and are accounted for as derivativeinstruments with any changes in fair value is recognized in the consolidated statement of operations during the period of change. Write-off of Debt Related Expenses and Other Expense Other Income for 2013 was $92,565 as compared to an expense of $2,264,528 in 2012. For 2012, the Company recorded a non-cash charge ofapproximately $706,000 of debt discounts and loan origination fees written off in addition to approximately $944,000 of prepayment penalties related to theterm financing with MidCap and Silicon Valley Bank that was prepaid in connection with the new 2012 term loan financing with ROS Acquisition OffshoreLP. In addition, 2012 also included the amortization of the higher prepaid and loan origination fees from the 2012 ROS Acquisition Offshore LP financing aswell as approximately $342,000 for warrants issued for services. After reviewing the full year product line sales associated with the goodwill asset and the fact that the sales were not meeting original projections, managementengaged an independent third party to review the asset for impairment in accordance with and pursuant to ASC 350 and ASC 360-10. The implied fair valueof the goodwill was determined in the same manner as the amount of goodwill recognized in a business combination, as determined under ASC 805. Theindependent third party concluded that the goodwill asset was in fact impaired and should be written down fully to $0 indicating a goodwill impairmentamount of $728,618. Liquidity and Capital Resources Since our inception, we have historically financed our operations through operating cash flows, as well as the private placement of equity securities andconvertible debt, an equity credit line and other debt transactions. In March 2014, we received an additional $4 million in term loan debt from ROSAcquisition Offshore LP. In June 2013, the Company closed on a $4.5 million equity financing with existing and new investors. In August 2012, we closed ona $20 million term loan transaction with ROS Acquisition Offshore LP. The proceeds of the term loan transaction were used to pay off the previous loans withMidCap Financial LLC and Silicon Valley Bank of approximately $9.3 million with the remainder adding to our working capital. At December 31, 2013, wehad $7,840,174 of cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivables. 23 Net cash used in operating activities for 2013 was $5,620,924, primarily related to funds required to finance the Company’s operations. For 2012, net cashused in operating activities was $10,792,332. The decrease in net cash used in operations between 2013 and 2012 is primarily the result of decreases, net ofreserve adjustments in the Company’s inventory and accounts receivable balances between the two periods. Net cash provided by investment activities for 2013 was $35,318 due to the purchase of property and equipment and increases in intangible assets offset byan impairment of goodwill charge of $728,618 recorded in the fourth quarter of 2013. Net cash provided by financing activities was $3,705,880 for 2013 primarily due to proceeds from the sale of equity securities which is net of financing feesand warrants issued in conjunction with the equity securities and partially offset by payments and debt and capital lease obligations. Off Balance Sheet Arrangements We do not have any off balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes infinancial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity or capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to an investor in ourshares. Cash Requirements We believe that our December 31, 2013 cash on hand and accounts receivable balance of $7,840,174, net proceeds from the additional $4,000,000 of term loandebt received from ROS Acquisition Offshore LP in March 2014 and anticipated cash receipts from sales expected from operations will be sufficient to meetour anticipated cash requirements through March 31, 2015. We incurred approximately $16 million in sales and marketing expenses in 2013 and expect toincur $17 million in 2014 based upon our current sales estimates. The sales and marketing expenses are largely variable expenses and are anticipated to befunded from operating cash flow. An increase of these expenses may impact our operating results and there can be no assurance of their effectiveness. If we donot meet our revenue objectives over that period, we may need to sell additional equity securities, which could result in dilution to our stockholders, or seekadditional loans. The incurrence of indebtedness would result in increased debt service obligations and could require us to agree to operating and financialcovenants that would restrict our operations. Financing may not be available in amounts or on terms acceptable to us, if at all. Any failure by us to raiseadditional funds on terms favorable to us, or at all, could limit our ability to expand our business operations and could harm our overall business prospects. In addition, we currently anticipate that we will need to spend between $4 and $5 million over the next 5 years in order to increase, expand or update ourexisting facilities to meet our expected growth over that period.

All intercompany balances andtransactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Bacterin’s biologics division develops, manufactures and markets biologics products to domestic andinternational markets. Bacterin’s proprietary methods are used in human allografts to create scaffolds and promote bone and soft tissue growth. Theseproducts are used in a variety of applications including enhancing fusion in spine surgery, relief of back pain with a facet joint stabilization, promotion ofbone growth in foot and ankle surgery, and promotion of skull healing following neurosurgery and regeneration in knee and other joint surgeries. Bacterin’s device division develops bioactive coatings based upon proprietary knowledge of the phenotypical changes made by microbes as they sense andadapt to changes in their environment. Bacterin develops, employs, and licenses bioactive coatings for various medical device applications. An operating segment is a component of an enterprise whose operating results are regularly reviewed by the enterprise’s chief operating decision maker to makedecisions about resources to be allocated to the segment and assess its performance. The primary performance measure used by management is net income orloss. The Company operates in two distinct lines of business consisting of the biologics and devices divisions. However, due to the immaterial revenue fromdevices to date, the Company reports as one segment. The Company's revenue is derived principally from the sale or license of its medical products, coatings and device implants. The markets in which theCompany competes are highly competitive and rapidly changing. Significant technological advances, changes in customer requirements, or the emergence ofcompetitive products with new capabilities or technologies could adversely affect the Company's operating results. The Company's business could be harmedby a decline in demand for, or in the prices of, its products or as a result of, among other factors, any change in pricing or distribution model, increased pricecompetition, changes in government regulations or a failure by the Company to keep up with technological change. Further, a decline in available tissuedonors could have an adverse impact on the business. Concentrations and Credit Risk The Company’s accounts receivable are due from a variety of health care organizations and distributors throughout the world. Approximately 98% and 97%of sales were in the United States for 2013 and 2012, respectively. One customer accounted for approximately 4% and 5% of the Company’s revenue for 2013and 2012, respectively. One customer represented 5% and 22% of net accounts receivable at December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. The Companyprovides for uncollectible amounts when specific credit issues arise. Management’s estimates for uncollectible amounts have been adequate during priorperiods, and management believes that all significant credit risks have been identified at December 31, 2013. Revenue by geographical region is as follows: Year ended December 31, 2013 2012 United States $32,488,822 $31,947,757 Rest of World 584,592 1,032,142 $33,073,414 $32,979,899 Use of Estimates The preparation of the financial statements requires management of the Company to make a number of estimates and assumptions relating to the reportedamount of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenueand expenses during the period; the carrying amount of property and equipment and intangible assets; valuation allowances for trade receivables and deferredincome tax assets; valuation of the warrant derivative liability; inventory reserve; contingent consideration from acquisitions; royalty liability; and estimatesfor the fair value of stock options grants and other equity awards upon which the Company determines stock-based compensation expense. Actual resultscould differ from those estimates. 30 Cash and Cash Equivalents The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity date of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Cashequivalents are recorded at cost, which approximates market value. At times the Company maintains deposits in financial institutions in excess of federallyinsured limits. Accounts Receivable Accounts receivable represents amounts due from customers for which revenue has been recognized. Normal terms on trade accounts receivable are net 30 daysand some customers are offered discounts for early pay. The Company performs credit evaluations when considered necessary, but generally does not requirecollateral to extend credit. The allowance for doubtful accounts is the Company's best estimate of the amount of probable credit losses in the Company's existing receivables. TheCompany determines the allowance based on factors such as historical collection experience, customer's current creditworthiness, customer concentration, ageof accounts receivable balance, general economic conditions that may affect a customer's ability to pay and management judgment. Actual customer collectionscould differ from estimates. Account balances are charged to the allowance after all means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovery isconsidered remote. Provisions to the allowance for doubtful accounts are charged to expense. The Company does not have any off-balance sheet credit exposurerelated to its customers. Accounts Payable - Related Party Accounts payable to a related party included amounts due to American Donor Services, a supplier of donors to the Company. See Note 14, “Related PartyTransactions” below. Inventories Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined using the specific identification method and includes materials, labor and overhead.The Company calculates an inventory reserve for estimated obsolescence or excess inventory based on historical usage and sales, as well as assumptionsabout future demand for its products. These estimates for excess and obsolete inventory are reviewed and updated on a quarterly basis. Increases in theinventory reserves result in a corresponding expense, which is generally recorded to cost of tissue and medical devices sales. Inventories where the sales cycleis estimated to be beyond twelve months are classified as Non-current inventories. Property and Equipment Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful livesof the assets, generally three to seven years for computers and equipment, and 30 years for buildings. Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the shorterof their estimated useful life or the remaining term of the lease. Repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred. Goodwill Goodwill represents the excess of costs over fair value of assets of businesses acquired. Goodwill and intangible assets acquired in a purchase businesscombination and determined to have indefinite useful lives are not amortized, instead are tested for impairment at least annually and whenever events orcircumstances indicate the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable. In its evaluation of goodwill, the Company performs an assessment ofqualitative factors to determine if it is more-likely-than-not that goodwill might be impaired and whether it is necessary to perform the two-step goodwillimpairment. The Company conducts its annual impairment test on December 31 of each year. After reviewing the full year product line sales associated with the goodwill asset and the fact that the sales were not meeting original projections, managementengaged an independent third party to review the asset for impairment in accordance with and pursuant to ASC 350 and ASC 360-10. The implied fair valueof the goodwill was determined in the same manner as the amount of goodwill recognized in a business combination, as determined under ASC 805. Theindependent third party concluded that the goodwill asset was in fact impaired and should be written down fully to $0 indicating a goodwill impairmentamount of $728,618. 31 Derivative Instruments The Company accounts for its derivative instruments in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting StandardsCodification (“ASC”) 815 “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities”. The only derivative instruments presented in the accompanyingconsolidated financial statements relates to warrants issued in connection with certain equity and debt financings. The Company has not designated itswarrant derivative liability as a hedging instrument as described in ASC 815 and any changes in the fair market value of the warrant derivative liability isrecognized in the consolidated statement of operations during the period of change. See Note 9, “Warrants” below. Intangible Assets Intangible assets with estimable useful lives must be amortized over their respective estimated useful lives to their estimated residual values, and reviewed forimpairment whenever events or circumstances indicate their carrying amount may not be recoverable. Intangible assets include trademarks, customer lists andpatents and include costs to acquire and protect Company patents. Intangible assets are carried at cost less accumulated amortization. The Company amortizesthese assets on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives of five years for customer lists and 15 years for all other intangible assets. The costs ofpatent filings and trademarks that have not been approved by regulatory authorities are not subject to amortization until such time that the filings areapproved. During the period when a filing is denied or abandoned, all related costs are expensed. 32 Revenue Recognition Revenue is recognized when all of the following criteria are met: a) the Company has entered into a legally binding agreement with the customer; b) the productsor services have been delivered; c) the Company's fee for providing the products and services is fixed or determinable; and d) collection of the Company’s feeis probable. The Company’s policy is to record revenue net of any applicable sales, use, or excise taxes. If an arrangement includes a right of acceptance or a right tocancel, revenue is recognized when acceptance is received or the right to cancel has expired. The Company ships to certain customers under consignment arrangements whereby the Company’s product is stored by the customer. The customer isrequired to report the use to the Company and upon such notice, the Company invoices the customer and revenue is recognized when above criteria has beenmet. The Company also receives royalty revenue from third parties related to licensing agreements. The Company has royalty agreements with RyMed and BardAccess Systems. Revenue under these agreements represented less than 1% of total revenue for 2013 and 2012. Non-Cash Consulting Expense From time to time, the Company issues restricted stock awards to consultants and advisors to the Company. These awards are measured at fair value at eachreporting date, recognized ratably over the vesting period and are recorded in non-cash consulting expense. Advertising Costs The Company expenses advertising costs as incurred. Advertising costs of approximately $47,000 and $51,000 were expensed for the years ended December31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Research and Development Research and development costs, which are principally related to internal costs for the development of new technologies and processes for tissue and coatings,are expensed as incurred and included in General and administrative expenses. Income Taxes The Company accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method of accounting for deferred taxes as prescribed under FASB ASC 740,Accounting for Income Taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financialstatement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted taxrates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred taxassets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. When applicable, a valuation allowance isestablished to reduce any deferred tax asset when it is determined that it is more likely than not that some portion of the deferred tax asset will not be realized.ASC 740 also requires reporting of taxes based on tax positions that meet a more-likely-than-not standard and that are measured at the amount that is more-likely-than-not to be realized. Differences between financial and tax reporting which do not meet this threshold are required to be recorded as unrecognized taxbenefits. ASC 740 also provides guidance on the presentation of tax matters and the recognition of potential IRS interest and penalties. The Company classifiespenalty and interest expense related to income tax liabilities as an income tax expense. There are no significant interest and penalties recognized in the statementof operations or accrued on the balance sheet during the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012. See Note 11, “Income Taxes” below. Long-Lived Assets Long-lived assets, including intangible assets, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount ofan asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to future netcash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount bywhich the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the estimated fair value of the assets. No impairment was recorded during the years ended December 31, 2013or 2012. Net Loss Per Share Basic net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Shares issuedduring the period and shares reacquired during the period are weighted for the portion of the period that they were outstanding. Diluted net income (loss) pershare is computed in a manner consistent with that of basic earnings per share while giving effect to all potentially dilutive common shares outstanding duringthe period, which include the assumed exercise of stock options and warrants using the treasury stock method. Diluted net loss per share was the same asbasic net loss per share for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 as shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options and warrants were anti-dilutiveas a result of the net losses incurred for those periods. 33 Dilutive earnings per share are not reported as their effects of including 18,461,493 and 12,838,799 outstanding stock options and warrants for the twelvemonths ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively are anti-dilutive. Stock-Based Compensation The Company records stock-compensation expense according to the provisions of ASC 718. Under ASC 718, stock-based compensation costs are recognizedbased on the estimated fair value at the grant date for all stock-based awards. The Company estimates grant date fair values using the Black-Scholes-Mertonoption pricing model, which requires assumptions of the life of the award and the stock price volatility over the term of the award. The Company recordscompensation cost of stock-based awards using the straight line method, which is recorded into earnings over the vesting period of the award. Fair Value of Financial Instruments The carrying values of financial instruments, including trade accounts receivable, accounts payable, other accrued expenses and long-term debt, approximatetheir fair values based on terms and related interest rates. We follow a framework for measuring fair value. The framework provides a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used tomeasure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and thelowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below: Level 1: Inputs to the valuation methodology are unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets. Level 2: Inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for theasset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument. Level 3: Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement. A financial instrument's level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Duringthe twelve months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, there was no reclassification in financial assets or liabilities between Level 1, 2 or 3 categories. The following tables set forth by level, within the fair value hierarchy, our assets and liabilities as of December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012 that aremeasured at fair value on a recurring basis: Accrued stock compensation As of December 31, 2013 As of December 31, 2012 Level 1 $211,212 $218,850 Level 2 - - Level 3 - - The valuation technique used to measure fair value of the accrued stock compensation is based on quoted stock market prices. Warrant derivative liability As of December 31, 2013 As of December 31, 2012 Level 1 $- $- Level 2 - - Level 3 1,594,628 984,356 Acquisition contingent consideration liability As of December 31, 2013 As of December 31, 2012 Level 1 $- $- Level 2 - - Level 3 - 91,740 The valuation technique used to measure fair value of the warrant liability and contingent consideration is based on a lattice model and significantassumptions and inputs determined by us. 34 Level 3 Changes The following is a reconciliation of the beginning and ending balances for liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis using significant unobservableinputs (Level 3) during the period ending December 31, 2012: Warrant derivative liabilityBalance at January 1, 2013 $984,356 New Issuance in 2013 1,485,313 Gain recognized in earnings (875,041)Balance at December 31, 2013 $1,594,628 Acquisition contingent consideration liabilityBalance at January 1, 2013 $91,740 Gain recognized in earnings (91,740)Balance at December 31, 2013 $- During the year ended December 31, 2013, the Company did not change any of the valuation techniques used to measure its liabilities at fair value. Items measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis: The Company’s royalty liability is carried at its estimated fair value based upon the discounted present value of the payments using an estimated discountrate. The Company did not have access to a readily traded market for similar credit risks and the estimated interest rate was based upon the Company’sestimate of a market interest rate to obtain similar financing. The Company originally discounted the $16.8 million of estimated payments at an interest rateof 16.7%. This was adjusted to an estimated royalty total of $13.8 million as of December 31, 2012. Accordingly, these inputs are classified as Level 3inputs. Recent Accounting Pronouncements There are no recently issued accounting standards for which the Company expects a material impact to its consolidated financial statements. (2) Equity On June 10, 2013, the Company issued approximately 8.51 million shares of common stock to new and existing investors at a price per share of $0.57,which represented a 10% discount to the closing price on June 4, 2013. For each common share purchased in the offering, investors received a warrantproviding the right to purchase 0.5 shares of Bacterin common stock at an exercise price of $0.72, a 15% premium to the June 4, 2013 closing price. Thewarrants will be exercisable for seven years beginning 6 months from the date of issuance. The transaction resulted in net proceeds to the Company ofapproximately $4.45 million, after deducting approximately $400,000 of placement agent’s fees and offering expenses. Proceeds from the transaction were usedto fund the Company's operations and working capital requirements. On November 14, 2013, the Company received a waiver from ROS for failure to achieve $10.5 million of revenue in the third quarter of 2013. In exchange forthe waiver and reduction of future quarterly minimum revenue thresholds, the Company issued 1,500,000 shares of restricted stock to an affiliate of ROS onNovember 25, 2013. On May 27, 2011, we entered into a Purchase Agreement and Registration Rights Agreement with Lincoln Park Capital Fund, LLC (“LPC”) whereby LPCagreed to purchase up to $31 million of our common stock from time to time pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement and we agreed to register theshares purchased by LPC. During the first quarter of 2012, we issued 1,472,537 shares of our common stock to LPC for net proceeds of $3,879,749. Weused the proceeds for working capital and general corporate purposes. The Purchase Agreement allowed us to terminate the Purchase Agreement for any reasonor for no reason with one business day's notice to LPC. On May 3, 2012, we terminated the LPC Purchase Agreement. 35 (3) Inventories Inventories consist of the following: December 31, 2013 2012 Current inventories Raw materials $2,710,091 $1,919,250 Work in process 3,333,672 4,991,032 Finished goods 5,775,813 7,350,332 11,819,576 14,260,614 Reserve for obsolescence (1,065,976) (1,119,193)Current inventories, total 10,753,600 13,141,421 Non-current inventories Finished goods 3,341,411 1,238,225 Reserve for obsolescence (1,221,459) - Non-current inventories, total 2,119,952 1,238,225 Total inventories $12,873,552 $14,379,646 (4) Property and Equipment, Net Property and equipment, net are as follows: December 31, 2013 2012 Buildings $1,653,263 $1,653,263 Equipment 5,768,478 5,172,523 Computer equipment 312,650 312,650 Computer software 395,146 392,206 Furniture and fixtures 170,118 170,118 Leasehold improvements 1,808,461 1,793,756 Vehicles 41,099 78,306 Total cost 10,149,215 9,572,822 Less: accumulated depreciation (4,968,659) (4,337,955) $5,180,556 $5,234,867 36 The Company leases certain equipment under capital leases.

(7) Long-term Debt On July 29, 2011, we entered into Loan and Security Agreement with MidCap Funding III, LLC (“MidCap”), whereby MidCap and Silicon Valley Bank(“SVB”) agreed to provide a $15 million credit facility which allowed us to borrow $7 million and up to an additional $8 million in connection with apermitted acquisition through December 31, 2011. The $8 million portion expired unused as of December 31, 2011. The credit facility was secured bysubstantially all of our assets and carried an interest rate of LIBOR plus 7.5%, subject to a LIBOR floor rate of 3% and contained covenants based uponrevenue thresholds. Repayment was interest only for the first nine months, with principal and interest for the subsequent 33 months. In the second quarter of2012, the interest only period was extended through December 31, 2012. We repaid this loan in full with the proceeds from our credit facility with ROSAcquisition Offshore LP (“ROS”) on August 24, 2012. 37 On April 23, 2012, the Company secured an accounts receivable credit facility with Midcap Financial LLC and Silicon Valley Bank. The revolving loancredit facility allowed Bacterin to borrow up to $5 million through January 1, 2015. The facility allowed borrowings based upon a predetermined formula ofup to 80% of Bacterin's eligible accounts receivable, as defined in the credit and security agreement. The Company also amended its existing Loan andSecurity Agreement with MidCap to allow the Company to borrow up to an additional $3 million for the next nine months in connection with a permittedacquisition. The credit facility carried an interest rate of LIBOR plus 4%, subject to a LIBOR floor rate of 2.5%. The Company also agreed to pay a 0.5%collateral management fee on the average outstanding balance of the facility and 1% of the average unused portion of the facility, as well as a 1% origination fee.The Company repaid this accounts receivable credit facility in full with the proceeds from the credit facility with ROS on August 24, 2012. On August 24, 2012, the Company entered into a Credit Agreement with ROS, whereby ROS agreed to provide an initial $20 million term loan. The CreditAgreement also provided for an additional $5 million upon achievement of certain revenue objectives prior to December 31, 2013, which were not achieved. OnMarch 6, 2014, we entered into a Sixth Amendment to our Credit Agreement which allowed us to borrow an additional $4 million in exchange for 1,500,000shares of our common stock. The loan carries an interest rate of LIBOR plus 12.13%, subject to a LIBOR floor rate of 1.0%. Bacterin also entered into anagreement to pay a royalty of 1.75% on the first $45,000,000 of net sales, plus 1.0% of net sales in excess of $45,000,000 for ten years. Upon the occurrenceof a defined event of default, ROS has the option to require the Company to purchase from ROS all of its rights to the remaining royalty payments that willbecome due in accordance with the royalty agreement (the “ROS Put Option”). The ROS Put Option meets the definition of an embedded derivative instrumentin accordance with ASC 815. The Company used a Monte Carlo simulation model to determine the fair value of the embedded derivative and concluded it hadan immaterial value at December 31, 2013 and 2012. As such, the Company has not recorded a derivative liability related to the ROS Put Option and has notrecognized any change in the fair value of this derivative liability in the consolidated financial statements because the impact is immaterial. Management willreassess the fair value of the embedded derivative instrument at each reporting period and record if and when it becomes material to the consolidated financialstatements. Bacterin has the right to repurchase the loan and royalty interest at amounts to be determined based on the date of repurchase, less the amount ofprior principal, interest and royalty payments The repurchase amounts, following the additional $4 million we borrowed on March 6, 2014 and beforededucting the amount of prior principal, interest and royalty payments, are as follows: (a) $37,500,000 if we exercise the repurchase option before August 24,2014between August 24, 2015 and August 24, 2016; (d) $52,500,000 if we exercise the repurchase option between August 24, 2016 and August 24, 2017; and (e)$56,250,000 if we exercise the repurchase option after August 24, 2017. We will also have to pay fees, currently in the amount of 3.5% of the aggregateprincipal amount of the loan, as a result of waivers and modifications we have received in connection with the financial covenants in the Credit Agreement.The loan is secured by substantially all of our assets. The estimate of the royalty component of the facility over the life of the agreement resulted in a debtdiscount and a royalty liability of $7,341,520. The debt discount will be amortized to interest expense over the seven year term of the loan using the effectiveinterest method. The royalty liability will be accreted to $13.8 million through interest expense over the ten year term of the royalty agreement using the effectiveinterest method. Payments made under the royalty agreement, per the table below, will directly reduce the royalty liability. The following table provides anapproximation of the repurchase price based on revenue equal to the minimum revenue required pursuant to the financial covenants in our Credit Agreementand four years of interest only payments with principal and interest amortized over years five through seven. Any modification in the payment schedule or inactual revenue achieved would change the Net Buyout Amount in the table below. The estimated amounts in the table below do not include fees payable on theaggregate principal amount of the loan pursuant to waivers and modifications to the Credit Agreement. The table below is for illustration purposes only andthere can be no assurance that we will achieve the minimum revenue required by the financial covenants or that we will timely make all required payments.

The Company received net proceeds of approximately $10 million following repayment of the existing term loan and accounts receivable credit facility withMidCap Financial, including prepayment penalties. The Company used the net proceeds for working capital and general corporate purposes. In 2013, we entered into a number of waivers and amendments to our credit facility with ROS, including amendments that increased the amount payable toROS. These waivers and amendments are summarized below. On May 16, 2013, we entered into an amendment to our Credit Agreement with ROS, whereby ROS agreed to reduce our minimum liquidity requirement from$1,500,000 to $750,000 until September 30, 2013. In exchange, we agreed to pay a fee in the amount of 1.5% of the aggregate amount of any principalpayment, prepayment or repayment. On August 12, 2013, we entered into a Waiver and Second Amendment to our Credit Agreement with ROS whereby we granted ROS Board observer rights inexchange for a waiver of our failure to replace our former Chief Executive Officer within 90 days of his resignation. On August 12, 2013, we also entered into a Waiver and Third Amendment to our Credit Agreement with ROS whereby we agreed to pay an additional fee in theamount of 2% (in addition to our prior fee of 1.5%, for a total of 3.5%) of the aggregate amount of any principal payment, prepayment or repayment inexchange for a waiver of our failure to achieve the minimum revenue required in the second quarter of 2013. On August 30, 2013, we entered into a Fourth Amendment to our Credit Agreement with ROS to revise the Board observer rights we granted to ROS. On November 14, 2013, we entered into a Waiver and Fifth Amendment to our Credit Agreement with ROS whereby we agreed to issue 1.5 million shares ofcommon stock to an affiliate of ROS in exchange for a waiver of our failure to achieve the minimum required revenue for the third quarter of 2013 and areduction of future quarterly minimum revenue thresholds. On March 6, 2014, we entered into a Sixth Amendment to our Credit Agreement with ROS whereby we borrowed an additional $4 million under the existingterms of our Credit Agreement with ROS and agreed to issue 1.5 million shares to an affiliate of ROS. Long-term debt consists of the following: December 31, 2013 December 31, 2012 Loan payable to ROS Acquisition Offshore, LIBOR plus 12.13% maturing August 2019 $20,000,000 $20,000,000 Adjustment fee payable to ROS Acquisition Offshore August 2019 700,000 - 6.00% loan payable to Valley Bank of Belgrade, $10,746 monthly payments including interest, maturingDecember 24, 2030; secured by building 1,375,030 1,421,420 22,075,030 21,421,420 Less: Current portion (47,727) (45,135)Debt discount (5,642,058) (6,893,183)Long-term debt $16,385,245 $14,483,102 The following is a summary of maturities due on the debt as of December 31, 2013: 2014 $47,727 2015 50,671 2016 1,778,797 2017 6,957,114 2018 6,960,637 Thereafter 6,280,084 Total $22,075,030 The following is a summary of estimated future royalty payments as of December 31, 2013: 2014 $836,750 2015 1,000,750 2016 1,229,250 2017 1,360,250 2018 1,462,750 Thereafter 7,951,250 Total $13,841,000 39 (8) Stock-Based Compensation Our Equity Incentive Plan ("The Plan") provides for stock awards, including options and performance stock awards, to be granted to employees, consultants,independent contractors, officers and directors. The purpose of the Plan is to enable us to attract, retain and motivate key employees, directors and, onoccasion, independent consultants, by providing them with stock options and restricted stock grants. Stock options granted under the Plan may be eitherincentive stock options to employees, as defined in Section 422A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, or non-qualified stock options. The Plan isadministered by the compensation committee of our Board of Directors. The administrator of the Plan has the power to determine the terms of any stockoptions granted under the Plan, including the exercise price, the number of shares subject to the stock option and conditions of exercise. Stock options grantedunder the Plan are generally not transferable, vest in installments over the requisite service period and are exercisable during the stated contractual term of theoption only by such optionee. The exercise price of all incentive stock options granted under the Plan must be at least equal to the fair market value of theshares of common stock on the date of the grant. 9 million shares are authorized under the Plan and at December 31, 2013, we had approximately 1,006,648shares available for issuance. Shares issued under the Plan may be authorized, but unissued, or reacquired shares. Stock compensation expense recognized in the statement of operations for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 is based on awards ultimately expectedto vest and reflects an estimate of awards that will be forfeited. ASC 718 requires forfeitures to be estimated at the time of grant and revised, if necessary, insubsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. The estimated fair value of stock options granted is done using the Black-Sholes-Merton method applied to individual grants. Key assumptions used toestimate the fair value of stock awards are as follows: ☐Risk-Free Rate: The risk-free rate is determined by reference to U.S. Treasury yields at or near the time of grant for time periods similar to the expected termof the award. We used a weighted-average rate of 1.16% for year ended December 31, 2013. ☐Expected Term: We do not have adequate history to estimate an expected term of stock-based awards, and accordingly, we use the simplified method asprescribed by Staff Accounting Bulletin 107 to determine an expected term. We used a weighted-average expected term of 6.2 years for the year endedDecember 31, 2013. ☐Volatility: We estimate expected volatility based on peer-companies as prescribed by ASC 718. We used a weighted-average volatility rate of 66% for theyear ended December 31, 2013. ☐Dividend Yield: The dividend yield assumption is based on our history and expectation of dividend payouts and was 0% as of December 31, 2013 and2012. Activity under the Plan was as follows: 2013 2012 Shares Weighted Average Exercise Price Weighted Average Fair Value at Grant Date Shares Weighted Average Exercise Price Weighted Average Fair Value at Grant Date Outstanding at January 1 5,266,535 $2.02 $1.03 4,828,910 $2.14 $1.01 Granted 3,331,250 0.63 0.53 1,716,250 1.79 1.03 Exercised (230,000) 0.10 0.06 (39,375) 0.87 0.37 Cancelled or expired (784,500) 1.76 0.89 (1,239,250) 2.17 0.39 Outstanding at December 31 7,583,285 $1.49 $0.86 5,266,535 $2.02 $1.03 Exercisable at December 31 2,642,718 $2.10 $1.03 2,565,301 $1.83 $0.80 The total intrinsic value of options exercised in 2013 was $109,000. The aggregate intrinsic value of options outstanding as of December 31, 2013 is$72,666. The aggregate intrinsic value of exercisable options as of December 31, 2013 is $72,666. As of December 31, 2013, there were 4,940,567unvested options with a weighted average fair value at the grant date of $0.77 per option. As of December 31, 2013, there is no compensation related tononvested awards not yet recognized. On May 24, 2013, the Company issued 335,000 restricted stock awards to certain employees. These restricted shares vest after one year and were issued whenthe stock price was $0.68 per share. The total expense of $227,800 is recognized ratably over the vesting period in General and Administrative and Sales andMarketing Expenses. From time to time we may grant stock options and restricted stock grants to consultants. We account for consultant stock options in accordance with ASC505-50. Consulting expense for the grant of stock options to consultants is determined based on the estimated fair value of the stock options at themeasurement date as defined in ASC 505-50 and is recognized over the vesting period. Total share based compensation for employees and consultants was $975,905 and $1,554,657 for the years ending December 31, 2013 and 2012,respectively. 40 The following table summarizes restricted stock award activity during the year ended December 31, 2013: Shares Outstanding at Jan. 1, 2013 733,900 Cancelled (278,676)Vested (146,724)Outstanding at December 31, 2013 308,500 The restricted stock awards generally vest over three to five year periods. The Company recognized non cash consulting expense of a negative $5,117 and apositive $427,787 for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. As of December 31, 2013, the total expense related to nonvested restrictedstock awards not yet recognized is $101,362 and is expected to be recognized over three years. (9) Warrants In the third quarter of 2012, the Company issued 297,991 warrants with an exercise price of $2.30 to a broker in conjunction with the August 24, 2012financing arrangement with ROS. These were recorded in “Other Assets” and will be amortized over the life of the financing term. These warrants were issuedin the fourth quarter of 2012. In addition, on July 23, 2012 the Company issued 300,895 warrants with an exercise price of $1.03 to a private party resultingin $342,485 recorded in “Other Expense”. The following table summarizes our warrant activities for the period ended December 31, 2013: Weighted Average Exercise Shares Price Outstanding at January 1, 2012 6,967,529 $2.22 Issued 598,886 1.66 Exercised (244,748) 1.58 Outstanding at December 31, 2012 7,321,667 2.20 Issued 4,352,215 0.72 Expired (795,674) 2.00 Exercised - - Outstanding at December 31, 2013 10,878,208 $1.62 We utilize a lattice model to determine the fair market value of the warrants accounted for as liabilities. The warrants issued in the second quarter of 2013resulted in the issuance of 4,254,387 warrants and a warrant derivative liability of $1,485,313. There was an additional 143,700 warrants in the first quarterof 2012 as a result of the LPC share issuance triggering the anti-dilution clause in the original warrant agreement and an additional 97,828 related to thesecond quarter of 2013 equity financing. The lattice model accommodates the probability of exercise price adjustment features as outlined in the warrantagreements. We recorded an unrealized gain of $875,041 resulting from the change in the fair value of the warrant derivative liability for 2013. Under theterms of the warrant agreement, at any time while the warrant is outstanding, the exercise price per share can be reduced to the price per share of futuresubsequent equity sales of our common stock or common stockequivalents that is lower than the exercise price per share as stated in the warrant agreement. 41 The estimated fair value was derived using the lattice model with the following weighted-average assumptions: Year ended December 31, 2013 2012 Value of underlying common stock (per share) $0.50 $1.25 Risk free interest rate 0.89% 0.24%Expected term 5.56 years 3.83 years Dividend yield 0 0 Volatility 65% 72% The following table summarizes our activities related to number of warrants used in the derivative liability for the period ended December 31, 2013 and 2012: 2013 2012 Balance at January 1 1,649,707 1,506,007 Derivative warrants issued 4,352,215 143,700 Derivative warrants exercised - - Balance at December 31 6,001,922 1,649,707 (10) Commitments and Contingencies Operating Leases We lease two office facilities under non-cancelable operating lease agreements with expiration dates in 2019 and 2023. We have the option to extend both theleases for another ten year term and for one facility, we have the right of first refusal on any sale. We lease an additional office facility under a month-to-montharrangement. Future minimum payments for the next five years and thereafter as of December 31, 2013, under these leases, are as follows: 2014 $269,400 2015 269,400 2016 269,400 2017 269,400 2018 269,400 Thereafter 727,864 Total $2,074,864 Rent expense was approximately $283,000 and $298,000 for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Rent expense is determined using thestraight-line method of the minimum expected rent paid over the term of the agreement. We have no contingent rent agreements. Indemnification Our arrangements generally include limited warranties and certain provisions for indemnifying customers against liabilities if our products or services infringea third-party’s intellectual property rights. To date, we have not incurred any material costs as a result of such warranties or indemnifications and have notaccrued any liabilities related to such obligations in the accompanying financial statements. We have also agreed to indemnify our directors and executive officers for costs associated with any fees, expenses, judgments, fines and settlement amountsincurred by any of these persons in any action or proceeding to which any of those persons is, or is threatened to be, made a party by reason of the person’sservice as a director or officer, including any action by us, arising out of that person’s services as our director or officer or that person’s services provided toany other company or enterprise at our request. Pending and Threatened Litigation On March 17, 2014, a complaint was served on the Company in the following state court action in the District Court for the County of Arapahoe, State ofColorado: Robert Taggart v. Guy Cook, Bacterin International, Inc. a Nevada Corporation and Bacterin International Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation,Civil Action No. 14CV30401. The complaint involves claims under an employment agreement between plaintiff and the Company seeking commissions onCompany sales, a commission on funds obtained by the Company as a result of a reverse merger and vesting of certain stock options. Plaintiff seeks damagesin excess of $5 million. The Company believes this case lacks legal merit and intends to file counterclaims for plaintiff’s breach of his employment agreementand breach of his duty of loyalty to the Company, asserting the right to recover all compensation paid to Plaintiff during his employment as well as otherdamages. Lacuna Hedge Fund LLLP (“Lacuna”) has asserted various claims against our former CEO, Guy Cook, in connection with financing Lacuna provided toHolgan, LLC, a former stocking distributor. Holgan failed to fully pay for the products it received from Bacterin and defaulted under its credit agreement withLacuna. We are currently in settlement negotiations with Lacuna regarding this matter, and we are also negotiating with Holgan on its unpaid obligation, whichwe wrote off in 2013. 42 NYSE MKT Deficiency Notice On May 13, 2013, we received a deficiency notice from the NYSE MKT exchange notifying us that we are not in compliance with Section 1003(a)(iii) of theCompany Guide with stockholders’ equity of less than $6,000,000 and net losses in five of our most recent fiscal years and Section 1003(a)(ii) withstockholders’ equity of less than $4,000,000 and net losses in three of our four most recent fiscal years.

We will continue tobe subject to periodic review by the NYSE MKT during the extension period and failure to make progress consistent with our Plan or to regain compliance bythe end of the extension period could result in our delisting from the Exchange. (11) Income Taxes The Company’s provision for income taxes differs from applying the statutory U.S. federal income tax rate to income before taxes. The primary differenceresults from providing for state income taxes and from deducting certain expenses for financial statement purposes but not for federal income tax purposes. The components of income (loss) before provision for income taxes consist of the following: Year Ended December 31, 2013 2012 United States $(12,693,125) $(7,713,822) $(12,693,125) $(7,713,822) The components of the income tax provision are as follows: Year Ended December 31, 2013 2012 Current: Federal $- $- State - - Total current - - Deferred: Federal - - State - - Total deferred - - $- $- The reconciliation of income tax attributable to operations computed at the U.S. Federal statutory income tax rate of 35% to income tax expense is as follows: Year Ended December 31, 2013 2012 Statutory Federal tax rate $(4,442,594) $(2,699,838)Valuation allowance 4,112,338 2,789,646 State income taxes, net of Federal benefit (528,034) (443,236)Change in state income tax rate 574,964 823,665 Change in Warrant Derivative Liability (342,666) (554,211)Stock issued in exchange for debt waiver 581,649 - Nondeductible meals & entertainment expense 44,343 83,974 $- $- 43 Deferred tax components are as follows: At December 31, 2013 2012 Deferred tax assets: Current deferred tax assets Accrued liability for vacation $85,599 $75,442 Bad debt reserve 512,941 642,546 Charitable contributions carryforward 19,746 19,686 Inventory reserve 895,760 456,026 Restricted stock compensation 82,640 94,212 Total current deferred tax assets 1,596,686 1,287,912 Valuation Allowance (1,596,686) (1,287,912) Net current deferred tax assets - - Noncurrent deferred tax assets Net operating loss carryovers 14,863,919 11,963,305 Stock warrants 134,117 139,549 Stock option compensation 1,307,998 1,023,192 Debt discount and waiver amortization 455,916 - Goodwill amortization 90,868 - Depreciation 97,492 - Amortization 25,797 - Total noncurrent deferred tax assets 16,976,107 13,126,046 Valuation allowance (16,976,107) (13,172,543) Net noncurrent deferred tax assets - (46,497) Deferred tax liabilities: Goodwill Amortization - (11,346)Depreciation - 31,055 Amortization - 26,788 Total deferred tax liabilities - 46,497 Net deferred tax assets $- $- 44 The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the existence, or generation, of taxable income in the periods when those temporary differencesand net operating loss carryovers are deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, taxes paid in carryover years,projected future taxable income, available tax planning strategies, and other factors in making this assessment. Based on available evidence, management doesnot believe it is more likely than not that all of the deferred tax assets will be realized. Accordingly, the Company has established a valuation allowance equal tothe net realizable deferred tax assets. The valuation allowance increased by $4,112,338 and $2,789,646 in 2013 and 2012, respectively. At December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company had total domestic Federal and state net operating loss carryovers of approximately $37,956,891 and$29,360,685, respectively. Federal net operating loss carryovers expire at various dates between 2025 and 2033, while state net operating loss carryoversexpire between 2025 and 2033. Under the Tax Reform Act of 1986, as amended, the amounts of and benefits from net operating loss carryovers and research and development credits may beimpaired or limited in certain circumstances. Events which cause limitations in the amount of net operating losses that the Company may utilize in any oneyear include, but are not limited to, a cumulative ownership change of more than 50%, as defined, over a three year period. The Company does not believe thatsuch an ownership change has occurred in 2013 or 2012. The 2010 through 2012 tax years remain open to examination by the Internal Revenue Service and the 2008 to 2012 tax years remain open to the MontanaDepartment of Revenue and various other state tax agencies. These taxing authorities have the authority to examine those tax years until the applicable statute oflimitations expire. The Company did not recognize any interest or penalties related to income taxes for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012. There were no materialchanges to uncertain tax positions for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012. (12) Employee Benefit Plans The Company has a 401(k) retirement plan. Qualified employees may defer their salary and the deferrals are matched up to 2%. The plan coverssubstantially all full-time employees. Under the terms of the plan, participants may contribute up to the lower of $16,500 of their salary or the statutorilyprescribed limit to the plan. Employees are eligible after six months of employment and may enroll twice a year in January and July. (13) Supplemental Disclosure of Cash Flow Information Supplemental cash flow information is as follows: Year ended December 31, 2013 2012 Supplemental disclosure of cash flow information Cash paid during the period for: Interest $2,681,459 $1,873,155 Income taxes $- $- Non-cash activities: Non-cash consulting expense $(5,117) $401,395 Settlement of SeaArk accounts receivable $1,829,647 $- Inventory received in SeaArk settlement $409,838 $- Write-off of SeaArk allowance for doubtful accounts $1,419,809 $- Warrants issued with debt $- $220,872 Capital lease acquisition $- $350,986 Issuance of warrants $1,485,313 $220,872 Increase in long term debt, ROS adjustment fee $700,000 $- Issuance of common stock, ROS adjustment fee $630,000 $- Debt discount related to financing $- $7,341,520 Royalty liability related to financing $- $7,341,520 (14) Related Party Transactions Guy Cook was our President, Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of our Board of Directors until April 5, 2013, when he resigned. Mr. Cook hasadvised us that he is currently an owner and executive officer of Lattice Biologics, Inc., a competitor of ours that was formerly known as InternationalBiologics, LLC. International Biologics, LLC was a former customer of Bacterin and is indebted to us in the amount of approximately $32,974, which we arecurrently attempting to collect. 45 Mr. Cook assisted unrelated parties in the initial capitalization of Holgan, LLC, a former stocking distributor that purchased a bulk shipment ofproducts from Bacterin at a discount in 2012 (“Holgan”). Holgan subsequently obtained financing from Lacuna Hedge Fund LLLP (“Lacuna”), which is asignificant Bacterin shareholder. Holgan failed to fully pay for the products it acquired from Bacterin and defaulted under its credit agreement with Lacuna.The parties are currently in settlement negotiations and we understand that Mr. Cook’s new company Lattice may be purchasing substantially all of theBacterin products held by Holgan, with the proceeds to be paid to Lacuna. We are continuing to negotiate with Lacuna on possible settlement arrangements andwith Holgan on its unpaid obligation, which we wrote off in 2013.

Under the supervision and with the participation of senior and executive management, we conducted an evaluation of ourinternal controls over financial reporting based upon the framework Internal Control – Integrated Framework as outlined by COSO, the Committee ofSponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Our internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assuranceregarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with accounting principlesgenerally accepted in the United States of America. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detectmisstatements. Also, projections of an evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because ofchanges in conditions or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Mr. Cook hasadvised us that he is currently an owner and executive officer of Lattice Biologics, Inc., a competitor of ours that was formerly known as InternationalBiologics, LLC. International Biologics, LLC was a former customer of Bacterin and is indebteded to us in the amount of approximately $32,974, which weare currently attempting to collect. Mr. Cook assisted unrelated parties in the initial capitalization of Holgan, LLC, a former stocking distributor that purchased a bulk shipment ofproducts from Bacterin at a discount in 2012 (“Holgan”). Holgan subsequently obtained financing from Lacuna Hedge Fund LLLP (“Lacuna”), which is asignificant Bacterin shareholder. Holgan failed to fully pay for the products it acquired from Bacterin and defaulted under its credit agreement with Lacuna.The parties are currently in settlement negotiations and we understand that Mr. Cook’s new company Lattice may be purchasing substantially all of theBacterin products still held by Holgan, with the proceeds to be paid to Lacuna. We are continuing to negotiate with Lacuna on possible settlement arrangementsand with Holgan on its unpaid obligation, which we wrote off in 2013. Mr. Cook’s spouse was employed by Bacterin as the Director of Human Resources until April 9, 2013. Mr. Cook, together with his adult children,owned and operated Silver Forest Fund, LP (“Silver Forest”), a former distributor of Bacterin products. We terminated the contractual relationship with SilverForest on October 24, 2013. In 2012, Silver Forest purchased Bacterin products from an unaffiliated former distributor and subsequently exchanged some ofthose products for different Bacterin products of equivalent value. Other than product exchanges and payment of amounts owed by the non-affiliateddistributor, there were no other direct transactions between Bacterin and Silver Forest. In 2012, Mr. Cook pledged 1,850,000 shares of Bacterin stock ascollateral for loans made for the benefit of Silver Forest. Mr. Cook remains our largest stockholder with beneficial ownership of approximately 19.4% of our outstanding capital according to Amendment No.4 to his Schedule 13D filed on February 25, 2014 with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Schedule 13D”). In the Schedule 13D, Mr. Cookindicated that he believed Bacterin would be better able to realize its full value as a private entity, and that he planned to engage legal and financial advisors toassist him in evaluating alternatives for taking Bacterin private. To date, Mr. Cook has not made any formal offer to our Board of Directors. Mr. Cook also formerly served as a board member of West Coast Tissue Services (“WCTS”) and American Donor Services (“ADS”). Mr. Cook didnot receive any compensation for his board service from either entity. Darrel Holmes, our Chief Operating Officer, and Mitchell Godfrey, a director, also serveon the board of ADS, and Mr. Godfrey also serves as secretary and treasurer for ADS. Mr. Godfrey receives $5,000 per year for his service to ADS. Mr.Holmes does not receive any compensation for serving on the board of ADS. ADS and WCTS recover tissue from donors. We reimburse them for theirrecovery fees, which are comprised primarily of labor costs. The approximate aggregate amount of all transactions with WCTS was $840,100 for 2013 and$525,900 for 2012, and the approximate aggregate amount of all transactions with ADS was $2,055,523 for 2013 and $1,472,949 for 2012. Theserelationships have benefited us, as these entities provide us with donors, thus insuring that we have a pipeline of current and future donors, which isnecessary to our success.
