1. K99 bats ball while ball is in bounds... illegal participation (he participated in the play by batting a live ball in the field of play)
2. K99 bats ball while ball is out of bounds or while kick is in the air above the sideline... ball is dead because the ball is out of bounds. R's ball at the out of bounds
spot.

For #1 - he has the legal right to touch the ball. He is still a player, and any player may recover a loose ball. No different than a player sliding out of bound trying to recover the ball then touching it while he was out of bounds.
