If R declines the penalty for illegal batting by K, the result would be a safety. R is awarded 2 points and K will kick from the 20 yd line. If R accepts the penalty for illegal batting by K the result will be a 15 yard penalty administered from the previous spot because of the loose ball play. The ball will be moved half the distance to the goal It will be K's ball 4th and 20 from the 10 yard line.

Linesman,
You are right that its a loose ball play. But, the foul occured behind the basic spot. Therefore you enforce from the spot of the foul the 2 yd line. 4th down from the 1.
