Dogee DG310
THL T6s
both 90USD each
both have all your requirements, at the cheapest price possible.
beware though, screen resolution and cameras are not great on these phones.
it really depends if that is important for you.
4.4 with cheaper phones is still rare.
really good camera <140USD is impossible (in my opinion, no flame wars please)
good screen (IPS 720p) could be possible within your budget, but most phones will have either 854x480 or 960x540 resolution within that budget.
tough call.
my phones current and past:
Brand phones:- Samsung Galaxy Apollo/Leo/3 - retired, 2x Samsung Galaxy S - gone, Samsung Galaxy Note - stolen , Samsung Galaxy Grand Duos - retired
- Samsung Galaxy S3
- Samsung Galaxy S4 black edition (work issue)
China phones:- Pinphone 3 (never received), Smarty A8 (MTK6515 HTC Chacha clone), iNew V3 - sold
- Xiaomi Redmi 1s - Wife's daily driver
- Xiaomi MI3 64GB with MagicSim on dual bootMIUI v5 (4.8.22) /CM11
Others:
- ZTE Open (FirefoxOS) - now running ICS! -retired from duty.

sorry, i usually never look for WCDMA 850/2100 phones - i want either multiband or at least 900/2100 cause that is what is most useful for me.
i would have recommended some to you, but those are either over your budget or have the wrong frequencies.
i have one, the Elephone P10 (not C) - it seems to have the specs you want. 120USD i think
but no idea if it is any good

Doogee DG550 now $152.99 . Easily the best phone out there now in that price range. KitKat 4.4.2 official is available, 1GB/16GB 720p MT6592 OTG
http://goo.gl/LJ3CL1 Coupon code 'dg550'.
If you want to save substantially ($90 vs $150) and can deal with the lower resolution and low res cameras, the phones @linr76 suggested are good choices. The DG310 is excellent for the money. IPS LCD. 850/1900/2100 3G. OTG.

Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth
