Re: Distribution of Subscription Rights to Purchase Shares
of Common Stock, as Described
in the Registration Statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-222918)
Ladies and Gentlemen:
We have acted as counsel to Xtant Medical Holdings,
Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), in connection with the preparation of the above referenced Registration
Statement on Form S-1 (the “Registration Statement”), including the preliminary prospectus forming a part thereof
(the “Prospectus”), and you have asked for our opinion as to the accuracy of the statements of law contained
in the section of the Prospectus entitled “Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences.”
For purposes of rendering our opinion, we have examined
copies of all such documents as we have deemed relevant and necessary, including the Registration Statement, the Prospectus and,
with your approval, assumed the conformity to original documents of all documents submitted to us as copies; and we have assumed
that the terms and conditions of the subscription rights being distributed by the Company are as described in the Registration
Statement. In connection with the opinion rendered below, we also have relied on the correctness, without regard to any qualification
as to knowledge or belief, of the statements of fact in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus, and certain written representations
of the Company contained in an Officer’s Certificate dated on or about the date hereof.
Based upon the foregoing and the further qualifications set
forth below, the legal conclusions as to matters of federal income tax law included in the Prospectus under the caption “Material
U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences,” constitute our opinion.
This opinion represents our best legal judgment,
but it has no binding effect or official status of any kind, and no assurance can be given that contrary positions may not be taken
by the Internal Revenue Service or a court considering the issues. We express no opinion regarding tax consequences under foreign,
state or local laws, or as to any non-income tax consequences. In issuing our opinion, we have relied solely upon existing provisions
of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, existing and proposed regulations under it, and current administrative positions
and judicial decisions. Those laws, regulations, administrative positions and judicial decisions are subject to change at any time.
Any such changes could affect the validity of the opinion set forth above. Also, future changes in federal tax laws and the interpretation
thereof can have retroactive effect. We undertake no obligation to update the opinion expressed herein after the date of this letter.

Re: Xtant Medical Holdings, Inc.

Filed December 21, 2015
File No. 333-208677
Dear Ms. Breslin:
On behalf of our client, Xtant Medical Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”),
we are concurrently herewith submitting to the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) Amendment No.
1 (referred to herein for ease of reference as the “Amendment”) to the above-referenced registration statement (the
“Registration Statement”). The Amendment (i) incorporates responses to the comments transmitted by the Staff to us
on January 15, 2016 and (ii) includes additional securities for registration as described in our responses below.
Below, we identify in bold the Staff’s comment and note
in regular type our response. Page number references in our responses refer to the Amendment to the above-referenced registration
statement.
1. Given the nature of the offering and its size relative to the number of shares outstanding held by non-affiliates, the transaction
appears to be a primary offering. Because you do not appear to be eligible to conduct a primary offering on Form S-3, you do not
appear to be eligible to conduct an at-the-market offering under Rule 415(a)(4). Please revise to fix the price at which the shares
will be sold and name the selling securityholders as underwriters. If you disagree, please tell us your basis for determining that
the transaction is appropriately characterized as a transaction that is eligible to be made on a shelf basis under Rule 415(a)(1)(i).
In your analysis, please address the following among any other relevant factors:
· The number of shares being offered relative to the number of your currently outstanding shares held by non-affiliates;
Securities and Exchange Commission
May 2, 2016
Page Two
· The number of selling securityholders and the percentage of the overall offering made by each securityholder;
· The date on which and the manner in which each selling securityholder received the shares and/or the overlying securities;
· The relationship of each selling securityholder with the company, including an analysis of whether the selling securityholder
is an affiliate of the company;
· Any relationships among the selling securityholders;
· The dollar value of the shares registered in relation to the proceeds that the company received from the selling securityholders
for the securities, excluding amounts of proceeds that were returned (or will be returned) to the selling securityholders and/or
their affiliates in fees or other payments;
· The discount at which the securityholders will purchase the common stock underlying the convertible notes (or any related
security, such as a warrant or option) upon conversion or exercise; and
· Whether or not any of the selling securityholders is in the business of buying and selling securities.
Summary
We believe that the offer and sale of securities being registered
on the Registration Statement should properly be characterized as a secondary offering based on an analysis of:
· The relevant sections of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and related rules;
· the factors set out in the Staff’s Compliance and Disclosure Interpretation 612.09 (“CDI 612.09”);
· additional Staff guidance and interpretations as discussed below; and
· the specific facts and circumstances involved.
Securities and Exchange Commission
May 2, 2016
Page Three
We discuss these matters in detail below, following an overview
of the financing transaction through which the selling securityholders acquired the convertible notes covered by the Registration
Statement and described below.
Overview
On July 27, 2015, the Company entered into a Purchase Agreement
with Leerink Partners LLC as initial purchaser and a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “SPA”) with ROS Acquisition
Offshore LP and OrbiMed Royal Opportunities II (together, the “OrbiMed Entities”), for the sale of $65 million of 6.00%
Convertible Senior Notes due 2021 (the “Initial Notes”). In addition, Leerink Partners LLC partially exercised its
greenshoe option in the amount of $3 million, resulting in a $68 million financing in total.
The Initial Notes were issued to the OrbiMed Entities and Leerink
Partners LLC (as initial purchaser) pursuant to the exemption from registration provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act.
Leerink Partners LLC immediately sold the Initial Notes that it purchased, as initial purchaser, to “qualified institutional
buyers” (as defined under Rule 144A under the Securities Act (“Rule 144A”)). The purchasers of the Initial Notes
in the Financing are accredited investors (in the case of the OrbiMed Entities) or qualified institutional buyers (the selling
securityholders named in the Registration Statement are referred to herein as the “Selling Securityholders”). In the
SPA, the OrbiMed Entities made certain representations and warranties regarding their investment intent, including representations
that they were purchasing their securities for their own accounts, and all other Selling Securityholders were deemed to have represented
the same by the terms of the Preliminary Offering Memorandum dated July 13, 2015 and the final Offering Memorandum dated July 27,
2015.
On April 14, 2016, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase
Agreement with the OrbiMed Entities for the sale of $2,238,166.45 of 6.00% Convertible Senior Promissory Notes due 2021 (the “Promissory
Notes,” and together with the Initial Notes, the “Notes”). The Promissory Notes have the same terms as the Initial
Notes, except for the conversion thresholds, as noted below.
The financing transactions pursuant to which the Notes were
offered and sold are referred to below as the “Financings.”
Note Conversion Features
The Initial Notes are convertible into shares of common stock,
par value $0.000001 per share (the “Common Stock”), at a rate of 257.5163 shares for every $1,000 of principal (for
a conversion price of $3.88 per share). The Promissory Notes are convertible into shares of Common Stock at a rate of 344.8276
shares for every $1,000 of principal (for a conversion price of $2.90 per share). The conversion prices of the Initial Notes and
the Promissory Notes reflect the same premium (22%) over the last trading price of the Common Stock at the time of the issuance
of the Initial Notes and Promissory Notes, respectively. The number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of
the Notes is subject only to adjustments customary for a Rule 144A or registered underwritten convertible notes offering, including
in the event of a dividend or distribution, stock split, reverse stock split or similar recapitalization event.
Securities and Exchange Commission
May 2, 2016
Page Four
The Notes are subject to a “blocker” provision.
This blocker prevents the exercise of the Notes if the holder would, after conversion, beneficially own more than 9.99% of the
Company’s issued and outstanding Common Stock. Without regard to the blocker, the Initial Notes, at the time of issuance,
could have been converted into an aggregate of 17,511,105 shares of Common Stock, and the Promissory Notes, at the time of issuance,
could have been converted into an aggregate of 771,781 shares of Common Stock.
Not a “Toxic” Financing
The terms of the Notes do not include any price “re-sets”,
floating price conversion rights or other “toxic” or “death spiral” features that have prompted the Staff’s
concerns regarding “Extreme Convertible” transactions. The Notes do not contain any adjustment mechanism, including
anti-dilution adjustments for subsequent issuances at lower prices, other than customary adjustments that would apply to allow
the Selling Securityholders to effectively participate in a dividend or distribution event, or in the case of a stock split, reverse
stock split and similar recapitalization event or in the event of a make-whole fundamental change (as defined in the Promissory
Notes and the indenture relating to the Initial Notes). In addition, interest on the Notes is only payable in cash, and not in
additional principal amount or in shares. Thus the number of shares underlying the Notes will not increase due to interest accrued
under the Notes.
Rule 415 Analysis
Rule 415 under the Securities Act (“Rule 415”) generally
permits the registration of offerings to be made on a delayed or continuous basis subject to certain conditions. Rule 415(a)(1)(i)
under the Securities Act provides, in relevant part:
“a. Securities may be registered for an offering to be
made on a continuous or delayed basis in the future, Provided, that:
1. The registration statement pertains only to:
i. Securities which are to be offered or sold solely by or on
behalf of a person or persons other than the registrant, a subsidiary of the registrant or a person of which the registrant is
a subsidiary;”
Under Rule 415(a)(1)(i), an issuer may register securities to
be sold on a delayed or continuous basis by selling securityholders—i.e., a secondary offering. In the event that the offer
and sale of securities by the Selling Securityholders under the Registration Statement is re-characterized as a primary offering
on behalf of the Company, (i) sales would have to be made on a fixed price basis (rather than at prevailing market prices), rendering sales
impracticable, (ii) the Selling Securityholders may be deemed to be “underwriters” with respect to the offering, and
as a result, be exposed to potential liability under Section 11 of the Securities Act, and (iii) in accordance with the Staff’s
long-standing interpretive position, Rule 144 under the Securities Act would never be available to the Selling Securityholders
to effect resales of their securities. In this regard, and as noted by the Staff in CDI 612.09 (discussed in the next paragraph),
the Staff’s interpretation of Rule 415 can have a significant negative impact on the ability of smaller public companies
such as the Company to raise capital due to uncertainties regarding restrictions on the ability of a selling securityholder to
effect resales of its securities.

CDI 612.09 states that the issue of whether an offering is by
or on behalf of the issuer “is a difficult factual one, not merely a question of who receives the proceeds,” and involves
an analysis of various factors and “all the circumstances.” Specifically, CDI 612.09 states that consideration should
be given to the following factors:
1.
how long the selling shareholders have held the securities (in this case, the Notes and the underlying shares (collectively, the “Securities”)),
2.
the circumstances under which they received them,
3.
their relationship to the issuer,
4.
the amount of shares involved,
5.
whether the sellers are in the business of underwriting securities, and
6.
whether under all the circumstances it appears that the seller is acting as a conduit for the issuer.
Each of the relevant factors listed in CDI 612.09 is discussed
below in the context of the Registration Statement. Based on our review of these factors, we believe that the proposed offering
is properly viewed as being made “solely by or on behalf of a person or persons other than the registrant, a subsidiary of
the registrant or a person of which the registrant is a subsidiary,” and therefore the registration of all of the Securities
is permissible under Rule 415(a)(1)(i). In other words, we believe that the totality of the facts and circumstances in this case
clearly demonstrates that the registration of the Securities relates to a valid secondary offering, and the Selling Securityholders
are not acting as underwriters or otherwise as a conduit for the Company with respect to the Securities covered by the Registration
Statement.
How Long the Selling Securityholders Have Held the Securities
Presumably, the longer securities are held, the less likely
it is that the Selling Securityholders are acting as a mere conduit for the Company. The Initial Notes were issued to the Selling
Securityholders on July 31, 2015; the Selling Securityholders have accepted the market risk of their investment since that date.
The Selling Securityholders had held the Initial Notes for over 4.5 months before the Registration Statement was filed. The Selling
Securityholders have now held the Initial Notes for almost 9 months as of the date of
this letter. This holding period is far longer than the period required by the Staff for valid “PIPE” transactions.
Securities and Exchange Commission
May 2, 2016
Page Six
The Staff’s “PIPEs” interpretation is found
in Interpretation 116.19 (the “PIPEs Interpretation”) and provides that no minimum holding period is required where
the Company has completed the private transaction of all of the securities it is registering and the investor is at market risk
at the time of filing of the resale Registration Statement. The PIPEs Interpretation provides in relevant part that:
“In a PIPE transaction, a company will be permitted to register the resale of securities prior to their issuance if the company has completed a Section 4(2)-exempt sale of the securities (or in the case of convertible securities, of the convertible security itself) to the investor, and the investor is at market risk at the time of filing of the resale registration statement…. The closing of the private placement of the unissued securities must occur within a short time after the effectiveness of the resale registration statement.”
The PIPEs Interpretation contemplates that a valid secondary
offering could occur immediately following the closing of the placement. Because no specific holding period is required
for a PIPE transaction to be a valid secondary offering, a holding period of more than 7 months must also be sufficient for a valid
secondary offering.
This conclusion comports with longstanding custom and practice
in the PIPEs marketplace, where investors require that a registration statement is to be filed shortly after closing (typically
30 days) and declared effective shortly thereafter (typically 90 days after closing). The Company and the Selling Securityholders
are party to registration rights agreements (the “Registration Rights Agreements”) in connection with the Financings.
However, in this case, the Registration Rights Agreements have no time requirement for the initial filing of the Registration
Statement and require that the Registration Statements be declared effective 180 days after closing. This is a much greater
period of time than provided for in typical PIPE registration rights agreements, resulting in greater market risk for the Selling
Securityholders, and is inconsistent with the notion that the Selling Securityholders acquired the Notes, including the underlying
shares, with a view towards, or for resale in connection with, the public sale or distribution thereof. Rather, it reflects a
bona fide investment intent with respect to the Company.
The Circumstances Under Which the Selling Securityholders
Received the Securities
As described above, the Notes were issued in a valid private
placement that complied in all respects with the PIPEs Interpretation, Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act and Rule 144A promulgated
thereunder. The Selling Securityholders purchased their securities for investment purposes. Based on reports of recent statements
of policy of the Staff relating to Rule 415, we believe that the offering of the Securities falls squarely outside the area of
Staff concern regarding its interpretation of Rule 415.

Please
revise the discussion you provided in response to comment five to explain
why you did not write off biologics inventories until they
expired. Your discussion should clarify why you were unable to
estimate the inventories expiring and support why it was not necessary to
recognize it earlier.
Response:
We have performed additional research into the reasons for the 2009 Cost
of tissue sales adjustment (no current accounting or finance personnel were
employed by the Company at that time and the initial stated reasoning was
incorrect). Accordingly, we have clarified and revised our discussion
regarding the third quarter 2009 adjustment in response to your comment as
outlined below.
During the third quarter
of 2009, the Company recorded an adjustment which increased Cost of tissue sales
and decreased the Company’s inventory value by approximately $669,000. During
the quarter, the Company implemented an enterprise accounting system which
enabled the Company to more accurately track each inventory item and assign a
specific cost per item compared to the prior system which utilized an average
cost per lot item produced for 2009. Accordingly, as a result of the information
derived from the new system, the Company treated the adjustment as a change in
accounting estimate which resulted in an increase of Cost of tissue sales for
2009 of approximately $669,000, primarily
related to the Company’s OsteoSponge product, which had a large increase in
sales in 2009.

Please
tell us where you have disclosed the feature that triggered the derivative
accounting in response to comment 11. For example, if the
derivative accounting is triggered by an exercise price adjustment
feature, describe the events that would trigger the exercise price
adjustment and how the new exercise price will be
calculated. Furthermore, please explain to us why you believe
Black Scholes is the most appropriate method in calculating the warrants’
fair value as the Black Scholes method does not take into account changes
to the exercise price.
Response:
The feature that triggered the derivative accounting in response to
comment 11 was the price protection provision. We have expanded and
modified our description of the feature in footnote #12 on page F-13 as outlined
below.
The
Company utilizes a lattice model to determine the fair market value of the
warrants. The 1,482,256 warrants issued in connection with the bridge financing
were accounted for as derivative liabilities in connection with the price
protection provisions of the warrants in compliance with ASC 815. The lattice
model accomodates the probability of exercise price adjustment features as
outlined in the warrant agreements.
Under the
terms 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 future
subsequent equity sales of the Company’s common stock or common stock
equivalents that is lower than the exercise price per share as stated in
the warrant agreement.

Response:
We have disclosed our policy in recognizing inventory reserves and write-offs,
and we have quantified the average shelf life of our inventories. The Company
has set up an inventory reserve account equal to approximately 1.2% of the
inventory value at each period end based upon historical data. The average shelf
life of the Company’s putty products is 1.5 years and 5 years for all other
biologics products.

Notes Payable, page F-26
14. Refer to your response to
comment 41. While you state that the ratchet provision of the
conversion rate helps
maintain the clear and close relationship of the risks between the
conversion feature and the
host contract,
it is unclear to us how the market risk that the conversion feature will
continue to have, even in the event of a conversion price adjustment, are clearly and
closely related to a debt instrument Furthermore, since the economic characteristic of
the embedded instrument is
equity (i.e. the host instrument is convertible into an equity
instrument), the embedded instrument does not appear to be clearly and closely related
to the host instrument (debt). Please provide us a scope analysis under ASC 815-40-15 and ASC 815-40-25 as
originally requested in our comment to support your
accounting.
Response:ASC
815-40-15 applies to freestanding contracts that are indexed to, and potentially
settled in, an entity’s own stock. In determining if the conversion
feature is indexed to the entity’s own stock we referred at ASC 815-40-15-5
which states “the guidance in this paragraph through paragraph 815-40-15-8
applies to any free standing financial instrument or embedded feature that has
“all the characteristics of a derivative instrument”. This is consistent with
ASC 815-15-25-1 which requires that “an embedded derivative shall be separated
from the host contract and accounted for as a derivative instrument pursuant to
Subtopic 815-10 if and only if all of the following criteria are met: A. The
economic characteristics and risks of the embedded derivative are not clearly
and closely related to the economic characteristics and risks of the host
contract. B. the hybrid instrument is not remeasured at fair value under
otherwise applicable GAAP with changes in fair value reported in earnings as
they occur. C. A separate instrument with the same terms as the embedded
derivative would, pursuant to Section 815-10-15, be a derivative instrument
subject to the requirements of this Subtopic.” The Company performed the
following analysis to see if the embedded conversion option would meet all the
characteristics of a derivative instrument if it were a separate
instrument.
Per
ASC 815-10-15-83, a derivative instrument is a financial
instrument or other contract with all three of the following
characteristics:
a.
It
has one or more underlyings and one or more notional amounts or payment
provisions or both. Those terms determine the amount of the settlement or
settlements, and, in some cases, whether or not a settlement is required.
b.
It
requires no initial net investment or an initial net investment that is
smaller than would be required for other types of contracts that would be
expected to have a similar response to changes in market
factors.
c.
Its
terms require or permit net settlement, it can readily be settled net by a
means outside the contract, or it provides for delivery of an asset that
puts the recipient in a position not substantially different from net
settlement.
With
respect to c. above:
This part
of the definition of a derivative has three parts to it –

Response:
We have not had any specific problems engaging and retaining qualified technical

our industry and is not related to any specific incidence that we have recently
experienced. Also, we are not aware of any key technical personnel who have

Response:
We have not experienced problems attracting and retaining qualified key members

the continued availability of our facilities….. page 5

disclose your level of business interruption insurance coverage and the cost to
you of such coverage, if material.
Response:
We carry $1 million of business interruption insurance per location as part of

the extent practicable, please provide the amounts, in this risk factor, that
you have currently budgeted or anticipate spending to increase, expand or update

the section entitled “Cash Requirements” in your Management’s Discussion and
Analysis.
Response:
We anticipate that we will need to spend $4 to $5 million over the next five
years in order to increase, expand or update our existing facilities to meet our
expected growth over that period. We have not yet identified sources
of funding for this increase, expansion or update. However, we have
revised our risk factor to include the anticipated amounts, and we have
addressed this comment in more detail in the section entitled “Cash
Requirements” in our Management’s Discussion and Analysis.
Future revenue will depend
on our ability to develop new sales channels…. Page 6
10. We
note that you are engaging in a major initiative to build and further expand
your direct sales force and that this effort will have significant
costs. Please expand your disclosure in this risk factor to quantify,

We have expanded our disclosure in this risk factor to quantify, to the extent

reimbursement from public and private insurers and national health systems and
quantify reimbursement from public and private insurers and national health
systems and quantify the effects of such problems on your company, if
material.
Response:
We have not yet experienced payment problems that we would consider material;
however, the industry generally has a slow payment process, which affects our
ability to receive prompt payment. In general, we are paid by
hospitals, which in turn seek reimbursement from patients, their insurance
companies, Medicare and Medicaid. We did revise this risk factor
slightly to clarify that the third party reimbursement mentioned in this risk
factor is paid to hospitals, not to the Company.
We may be subject to future
product liability litigation….. page 7

disclose the level of insurance coverage that you carry relating to the product
liability claims and the cost to you of such coverage, if material.

include these amounts.
13. Please
disclose the level of reserves you maintain for product liability
disbursements.
Response:
We do not currently maintain any reserves for product liability disbursements,
and we have revised this risk factor to state that “our insurance coverage and
any reserves we may maintain in the future . . . may not be
adequate.” As noted in the response to comment 12 above, we also

Response:
We have revised our disclosure to disclose the names of the customers described

contracts with these customers were terminated in the third quarter of 2009 when
the Company migrated to a direct sales model from a distributor based
model. We revised our disclosure accordingly; however, since we no
longer have contracts with these customers, we did not add this discussion to
the Business section and have not attached the contracts as
exhibits.

your own label and contract revenue from analytical testing and development
services provided to medical device manufacturer clients, which tailor your
coating process to the client’s specific product/medical

Dilution of the Price You Pay For Your Shares, page 11
1. We have reviewed your response to prior comment 1 in our letter dated August
28, 2009. Please revise your pre-offering net tangible book value amounts under each offering scenario to read $69,066, which represents your shareholder’s equity balance as of June 30, 2009. Although your post-offering net tangible
book value amounts appear to be appropriately calculated, the adjustments to your pre-offering net tangible book value figures will result in chan ges to the amounts
presented in the “Net tangible book value per share before offering” and “Increase
in net tangible book value per share attributab le to new investors” line items.

Dilution of the Price You Pay For Your Shares, page 11
1. We have reviewed your response to prio r comment 1 in our letter dated July 1,
2009. Please revise your dilu tion tables to reflect data as of June 30, 2009, the
most recent interim financial statements provided in the filing. Please also note
that if the offering expenses already paid by you have been reflected as a
reduction to pre-offering net tangible book value, we will not object if your post-
offering pro forma net tangible book am ount is reduced only by the unpaid
portion of your offering expenses. A ccordingly, based on a pre-offering net
tangible book value of $69,066 as of June 30, 2009, it appears that your pro forma
net tangible book value subsequent to a maximum offering would be $157,141,
which reflects $100,000 of offering pr oceeds less the $11,925 unpaid offering
expenses disclosed on page 11. Please ensure you clearly disclose how you
treated offering costs in your dilution calculations.

2. You disclose that the increas e in your revenues from the six month period ended
June 31, 2008 to the six month period ended June 30, 2009 was due to “the
general softness in the overal l economy in early 2009.” Pl ease tell us and disclose

3. We note that you made several revisions to the amounts in your financial
statements from the previous filing but di d not include a restatement footnote or
discuss why the amounts changed. We also note that the restatement was not
discussed in your auditor’s report and th at the report date remains unchanged.
Please include a restatement footnote in your next amendment that discusses the changes made to your financial statements and why those changes were necessary. Provide a table that includes th e original and restated amounts for each
financial statement line item impacted. Where applicable, mark the appropriate columns impacted by the restatements “as restated” on the face of your financial

their report and dual date the report as necessary.
Balance Sheet, page F-2
4. We have reviewed your response to prio r comment 7 in our letter dated July 1,
2009. Although your response indicates that you issued 4.5 million shares of
common stock to your CEO upon conversi on of an accrued liability, your
disclosures on pages 11 and II-1 indicate that you received cash consideration for
issuance of the shares. Furthermore, while your pro forma balance sheet on page F-2 reflects the transaction as a conversion of a liabili ty, your cash flow statement
on page F-17 reflects the issuance as a cash transaction. Please address this inconsistency and revise your disclosures accordingly. Please also ensure that
you address the following items:
• If you received cash in the transaction, please note that the proceeds should be
reflected on your cash flow statement as a financing activity. Please also

revise your pro forma balance sheet on pa ge F-2 to reflect the cash proceeds
and necessary adjustments to APIC. Please note that the pro forma accrued compensation liability would remain unc hanged under this scenario.
• If you issued the shares upon conversion of a liability, revise your disclosures
on pages 11 and II-1 to clearly indicate that they were issued upon conversion
of a payable and that you did not receiv e cash in the transaction. Since you
did not receive cash in the transactio n, please also revise your cash flow
statement on page F-17 to remove this non-cash financing activity.
Income Statement, page F-3
5. We note that there are typos in the li ne item “Cost of sales – related party
(Jendco).” Please revise your filing accordingly.

2. You disclose that the increas e in your selling, general and administrative expenses
from the quarterly period ended Marc h 31, 2008 to the quarterly period ended

3. Please revise to clarify the reference you make to the “support and
accommodations” you have received from Je ndco Safety. If you are referring to
the favorable payment terms you receive from them, please specifically refer to this and any other favorable terms or bene fits that accrue to you, by virtue of your
affiliation with them. Please make similar revisions on page 27. Please note that your risk factor on page 6, which also refers to “the support and accommodations”
you receive from a significan t related party, whom we presume to be Jendco
Safety, would seem to be referring to cas h advances or loans as it makes reference
to your liquidity needs. If Jendco Safety has provided you with cash advances or loans, please revise to discuss the terms of these cash advances or loans, and revise the disclosure to explain exactly how the related party has assisted you with
your liquidity needs.
4. You indicate that your cash on hand together with the anticipated proceeds of the offering and projected cash flow from operations will be enough to sustain
operations for at least the next 12 to 18 months. Please clarify whether you will need to raise the maximum amount of pro ceeds in order to sustain operations for
this time frame, as your reference to “anticipated proceeds” is unclear.

Balance Sheet, page F-3
7. We have reviewed your response to prior comment 23 in our letter dated April 29,
2009. Based on your disclosures on page II-1, it appears your CEO Jennifer Jarvis purchased 4,500,000 common shares on January 24, 2009 for cash consideration
of $45,000. Please confirm if you issued the shares for cash or some other form
of consideration, such as the conversi on of a payable to your CEO. If you
received cash, please revise your pro form a balance sheet to reflect the cash
proceeds and ensure that you reflect the pr oceeds within the fi nancing activities
section of your statement of cash flows for the quarterly period ended March 31,
2009. If you issued the shares upon conversion of a liability, please revise your pro forma balance sheet to reflect the reduc tion of the liability. In either case,
please clarify why your APIC balance d eclined, both in your pro forma balance
sheet and your interim statement of shar eholders’ equity, and did not increase by
an amount approximating the cash received, or liability extinguish ed, in excess of
the par value of the common shares i ssued. Please also clarify why the
transaction had no impa ct on total equity.

response suggests that the expense is deferred. Please address this
inconsistency. If all federal income ta x expense is deferred, tell us why you
have not recorded any current federal income tax expense.
• Provide a reconciliation, using percenta ges or dollar amounts, of the reported
amount of income tax expense attributab le to continuing operations for the
year to the amount of income tax ex pense that would result from applying
domestic federal statutory tax rates to pretax income from continuing
operations.
• Disclose the approxima te tax effect of each
type of temporary difference and
carryforward that gives rise to a signif icant portion of deferred tax liabilities

Registration Statement on Form S-1 Filed April 6, 2009 File No. 333-158426 Dear Mr. Jarvis: We have reviewed your filing and have the following comments. Where indicated, we think you should re vise your document in response to these comments. If you disagree, we will consider your explanation as to why our comment is inapplicable or a revision is unnecessary. Please be as deta iled as necessary in your explanation. In some of our comments, we may ask you to provi de us with information so we may better understand your disclosure. After reviewing th is information, we may raise additional comments. Please understand that the purpose of our re view process is to assist you in your compliance with the applicable disclosure requirements and to enhance the overall disclosure in your filing. We look forward to working with you in these respects. We welcome any questions you may have about our comments or any other aspect of our review. Feel free to call us at the telephone numbers listed at the end of this letter. Registration Statement Facing Page 1. We note that you have not marked the box indicating that the s ecurities are being offered on a delayed or continuous basis pursuant to Rule 415. However, from a description of the offeri ng, it appears that you are o ffering the securities on a delayed or continuous basis. If so, pl ease check the box for Rule 415. Otherwise, explain to us why your offering is not a delayed or continuous offering under Rule 415. Jennifer H. Jarvis K-Kitz, Inc. April 29, 2009 Page 2 Front Cover of Prospectus 2. Please revise to leave the date of the pr ospectus at the top of the cover page undated as that date should be the date of the effectiveness of the registration statement. Alternatively, please remove this date reference as one already appears at the bottom of the page. 3. Throughout your prospectus, pl ease revise to clarify that the 180-day offering time period begins upon effectiveness of th is registration statement. Though you provide this disclosure in some places in your registration statement, please ensure that you have provided it throughout. 4. In an appropriate place in your prospect us, please disclose to shareholders how you will advise them that you have extended the offer for 90 days, should you choose to do so. Your disclosure on pa ge 24 would seem to indicate that you will file a post-effective amendment in the event the offering is extended. 5. We note the disclosure that you will promptly return funds held in escrow if the minimum offering amount is not met within the specified period of time, as required by Exchange Act Rule 10b-9. We have taken the position that "promptly" means the next business day or as soon as possible after the offering's termination. Revise to disclose this requirement. We use a small number of suppliers for our products, and rely on them for prompt shipment and quality control, page 6 6. Please eliminate the disclosure indicati ng that you have never experienced any difficulty with the quantity or quality from your product suppliers since it mitigates the point of the risk. Alternatively, delete the risk altogether if it does not pose a material risk of which investors should be made aware. Our technology and know-how is unpatented and others may seek to copy it without compensating us, page 6 7. This risk factor indicates that you do not patent your “technology or other know- how developed by [you] relating to [y ]our decontamination chambers or pumps…” Please revise your Business di scussion to explain how you contribute technology to the products you sell. Your disclosure on page 17 indicates that you purchase all of your products from th ird party sources and that you custom design and assemble your kits for re sale but it makes no mention of any technology or other know-how that you have developed. Pl ease revise or advise. Jennifer H. Jarvis K-Kitz, Inc. April 29, 2009 Page 3 Finra sales practice requirement may limit a stockholder’s abil ity to buy or sell our stock, page 7 8. Please revise this risk fa ctor to avoid using the term “penny stock” as many investors may be unfamiliar with this term . Alternatively, refer readers to your expanded discussion of this term that appears later in your prospectus. Use of Proceeds, page 9 9. Pursuant to Item 504 of Re gulation S-K, your applicati on of proceeds table should indicate how the net proceeds of the offering will be utilized. Accordingly, please revise your use of proceeds table and related discussion. Although you disclose that the registration costs will be paid from cash on hand, net proceeds must reflect the direct offering costs. 10. Please disclose that the two offering s cenarios presented ar e for illustrative purposes only and the actual amount of proceeds received, if any, may differ. Determination of Offering Price, page 10 11. Please revise to clearly disclose how you determined the offering price. The existing disclosure states that it was arbi trarily determined but you then disclose four factors. Please clarify how the four factors you cite c ontributed to your offering price determination. Dilution of the Price You Pay For Your Shares, page 10 12. We have reviewed your dilution disclosu res and have the following comments: • Tell us how you calculated the December 31, 2008 pre-offering net tangible book value of $60,143. Since it appears you do not have any intangible assets recorded as of your fiscal year-end, pl ease clarify why your equity balance of $35,578 does not represent net tangible book value. • Please note that you should reflect the $39,000 of estimated offering costs as a reduction to post-offering net tangible book value. Accordingly, it appears post-offering net tangible book value assuming 100% of the shares are sold would be only $61,000 greater than the pre-offering amount. • Please revise your disclosures under each o ffering scenario to clearly disclose the net tangible book value per share before the offering, pro forma net tangible book value per share after the offering, the in crease in net tangible book value per share attributable to new investors, and dilution per share to new investors. Jennifer H. Jarvis K-Kitz, Inc. April 29, 2009 Page 4 • It appears that the “Price per share” line item at the top of your table on page 11 represents the net tangible book value per share after the offering. Please revise this line item description as it could easily be confused with the price per share of the offering. • Considering you disclose on page 10 th at your existing affiliated stockholder paid $45,000 for 4,500,000 shares of co mmon stock, please clarify how you determined the $16,868 amount included in the “Capital contribution of existing stockholder” line item. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, page 12 13. We note your disclosure, “We undertake no obligation to update and revise any forward-looking statements or to publicly announce the result of any revisions to any of the forward-looking statements in this document to reflect any future or developments.” Please revise your statem ent to include a statement to the effect that you do not undertake the obligation to update your forward statements except to the extent required by federal securities laws. 14. Where you identify intermediate causes of changes in your operating results, also describe the reasons underlying the in termediate causes. For example, you indicate that the increase in your cost of sales percentage from fiscal year 2007 to 2008 is due to greater volume from your contract with the Fr anklin County, Ohio Board of Health and you indicate that se lling, general and admi nistrative expenses remained at consistent levels despite more than doubling your sales. Please explain why increased volumes with th at specific customer led to reduced margins and why SG&A expenses and operating income remained constant despite a significant increase in sales. A discussion of the relevant factors and trends that led to the cha nges in cost of sales, SG&A expenses, and other income statement line items would be beneficial to a reader. In pa rticular, your MD&A should include descriptions and amounts of: • Matters that are expected to have a ma terial impact on future operations but that have not had an impact in the past; • Matters that have had a material im pact on reported operations but are not expected to have an impact upon future operations, and; Jennifer H. Jarvis K-Kitz, Inc. April 29, 2009 Page 5 • Matters that have had a material impact on past operating results and involve prospective effects. See SEC Release No. 33-8350. 15. Where you describe business reasons that contributed to a material change in a financial statement line item between peri ods, please quantify, where possible, the extent to which each factor contributed to the overall change in that line item. For example, with respect to the change in revenue from fiscal year 2007 to 2008, please quantify the extent to which the ch ange is attributable to greater volume from your contract with the Franklin C ounty, Ohio Board of Health. See Item 303(a) of Regulation S-K and SEC Release No. 33-8350. Liquidity and Capital Resources, page 14 16. We note your indication that your principa l capital resources have historically been provided through advances from Jennifer Jarvis. Revise to quantify how much she has provided and the terms pur suant to which she has provided these resources. If she has loaned you money, please discuss the terms of the loan(s) and provide applicable disclosure un der Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, on page 22, pursuant to Item 404 of Regulation S-K. Recent Accounting Pronouncements, page 16 17. Although you should have already adopted the recent account ing pronouncements disclosed in this section, your disclosure s indicate that management either does not expect adoption to have a material im pact on your financial statements or that management is still evaluating the eff ect adoption will have on your financial statements. If true, please conf irm that you adopted these accounting pronouncements within your historical fi nancial statements and revise your disclosures accordingly. Business, page 17 18. Please revise this discussion to elab orate upon how you intend to generate revenues from sales of your kits. For example, explain how school systems and municipalities have accounted for a majo rity of your revenues; in doing so, discuss how they became your customers, the likelihood that they will generate any revenues as a result of refill and/or replacement sales and how you intend to identify new customers and whether you expect your new customers to constitute school systems and municipalities. We note your indication that you “intend to implement an extensive marketing plan to reach the maximum number of potential customers to grow demand;” pl ease provide additiona l detail about your extensive marketing plan. Jennifer H. Jarvis K-Kitz, Inc. April 29, 2009 Page 6 Executive Officer Compensation, page 20 19. We note that, notwithstanding the fact th at you have no compensation to disclose, your Summary Compensation Table does not appear to reflect the implementation of the new disclosure requirements rela ting to executive compensation. Refer to Securities Act Releases 8732A and 8765 and Question 7 of the “Executive Compensation and Related Person Disclosu re Transition Questions and Answers” located at our web-site at www.sec.gov. Please revise accordingly. Plan of Distribution and Te rms of the Offering, page 24 20. Please alert investors at the beginning of this section that there is currently no market for any of your shares, and that you cannot give any assurance that the shares offered will have a market value, or that they can be resold at the offered price if and when an active secondary market might develop, or that a public market for your securities may not be sust ained even if developed. Please provide similar disclosure on page 27, where you discuss the timeframe for purposes of obtaining a trading symbol. 21. You state that an extension of the offering period beyond 180 days will entitle investors to a refund of their investment . Clarify whether your option to extend the offering for 90 days will trigger this provision. Description of Securities, page 28 22. You indicate here that stockholders are permitted to vote their shares cumulatively and yet the company’s Ce rtificate of Incorporation makes no mention of such rights. Please revise or advise. Balance Sheet, page F-3 23. You disclose in Notes 7 and 9 that you redeemed the 100 common shares outstanding as of December 31, 2008 during January 2009 and issued 4,500,000 common shares to your CEO. Please include a pro forma balance sheet as of December 31, 2008 presented along side of th e historical balance sheet that gives effect to this change in capitalizatio n and excludes the effects of the offering proceeds. Please also present pro form a EPS computations on the face of your income statements for the fiscal years presented that give effect to the 4,500,000 shares issued to your CEO. Jennifer H. Jarvis K-Kitz, Inc. April 29, 2009 Page 7 Notes to Financial Statements, page F-7 Note 5. Provision for Income Taxes, page F-12 24. Please revise your footnote to include all of the income tax disclosures required by paragraphs 43-49 of SFAS 109. In doing so, we note that you have a deferred tax asset line item on your balance sheet but there is no deferred tax expense or benefit reflected in your income tax expens e or, as described in paragraph 28(a) of SFAS 95, as a reconciling item on your statements of cash flows. Note 8. Related Party Transactions, page F-15 25. As required by Rule 4-08(k) of Regulat ion S-X, please identify and state the amounts of your related party transactions on the face of the consolidated balance sheets, income statements, and/or statements of cash flows. *** As appropriate, please amend your regist ration statement in response to these comments.
