(the "Company"), to be held on Wednesday, December 20, 2005, at 9:00 a.m., local time, at the offices of Kirkpatrick & Lockhart Nicholson Graham, 75 State Street, Boston, Massachusetts, and any postponements or adjournments thereof. The Company is making this proxy solicitation. ABOUT THE MEETING What is the purpose of the annual meeting? At the Company's annual meeting, stockholders will act upon the matters outlined in the notice of meeting on the cover page of this proxy statement, including the election of directors. In addition, the Company's management will report on the performance of the Company during fiscal 2005 and respond to questions from stockholders. Who is entitled to vote? Only stockholders of record on the close of business on the record date, November 17, 2005, are entitled to receive notice of the annual meeting and to vote the shares of common stock that they held on that date at the meeting, or any postponements or adjournments of the meeting. Each outstanding share of common stock will be entitled to one vote on each matter to be voted upon at the meeting. Who can attend the meeting? All stockholders as of the record date, or their duly appointed proxies, may attend the meeting. Seating, however, is limited. Admission to the meeting will be on a first-come, first-serve basis. Registration will begin at 9:00 a.m., and seating will begin at 9:30 a.m. Each stockholder may be asked to present valid picture identification, such as a driver's license or passport. Cameras, recording devices and other electronic devices will not be permitted at the meeting. Please note that if you hold your shares in "street name" (that is, through a broker or other nominee), you will need to bring a copy of a brokerage statement reflecting your stock ownership as of the record date and check in at the registration desk at the meeting. What constitutes a quorum? The presence at the meeting, in person or by proxy, of the holders of a majority of the shares of common stock outstanding on the record date will constitute a quorum, permitting the meeting to conduct its business. As of the record date, 81,758,067 shares of common stock of the Company were outstanding. Proxies received but marked as abstentions and broker non-votes will be included in the calculation of the number of shares considered to be present at the meeting. How do I vote? If you complete and properly sign the accompanying proxy card and return it to the Company, it will be voted as you direct. If you are a registered stockholder and attend the meeting, you may deliver your completed proxy card in person or vote by ballot at the meeting. "Street name" stockholders who wish to vote at the meeting will need to obtain a proxy form from the institution that holds their shares. 1 What if I do not specify how my shares are to be voted? If you submit a proxy but do not indicate any voting instructions, then your shares will be voted in accordance with the Board's recommendations. Can I change my vote after I return my proxy card? Yes. Even after you have submitted your proxy card, you may change your vote at any time before the proxy is exercised by filing with the Secretary of the Company either a notice of revocation or a duly executed proxy bearing a later date. The powers of the proxy holders will be suspended if you attend the meeting in person and so request, although attendance at the meeting will not by itself revoke a previously granted proxy. What are the Board's recommendations? Unless you give other instructions on your proxy card, the persons named as proxy holders on the proxy card will vote in accordance with the recommendation of the Board of Directors. The Board's recommendation is set forth together with the description of each item in this proxy statement. In summary, the Board recommends a vote: o For the election of the nominated slate of directors (see page 4); With respect to any other matter that properly comes before the meeting, the proxy holders will vote as recommended by the Board of Directors or, if no recommendation is given, in their own discretion. What vote is required to approve each item? Election of Directors. The affirmative vote of a plurality of the votes cast at the meeting is required for the election of directors. This means that the four nominees will be elected if they receive more affirmative votes than any other person. A properly executed proxy marked "Withheld" with respect to the election of any director will not be voted with respect to such director indicated, although it will be counted for purposes of determining whether there is a quorum. If you hold your shares in "street name" through a broker or other nominee, your broker or nominee may not be permitted to exercise voting discretion with respect to some of the matters to be acted upon. Thus, if you do not give your broker or nominee specific instructions, your shares may not be voted on those matters and will not be counted in determining the number of shares necessary for approval. Shares represented by such "broker non-votes," however, will be counted in determining whether there is a quorum. 2 STOCK OWNERSHIP Beneficial Owners The following table presents certain information regarding the beneficial ownership of all shares of common stock at November 17, 2005 for each executive officer and director of our Company and for each person known to us who owns beneficially more than 5% of the outstanding shares of our common stock.

The initial term of Mr. Tusing's Employment Agreement is for 2 years and will automatically renew for successive 1 year terms unless Kronos or Mr. Tusing provide the other party with written notice within 3 months of the end of the initial term or any subsequent renewal term. The Board of Directors renewed Mr. Tusing's Employment Agreement on October 1, 2004 and again on October 1, 2005. Mr. Tusing's Employment Agreement provides for base cash compensation of $160,000 per year. Mr. Tusing will be entitled to fully participate in any and all 401(k), stock option, stock bonus, savings, profit-sharing, insurance, and other similar plans and benefits of employment. Executive Severance Agreements The Employment Agreement of Daniel R. Dwight, our Chief Executive Officer, provides that, upon the occurrence of any transaction as defined as a "change of control" of Kronos, Mr. Dwight shall receive his salary and benefits for a period of time that is the greater of (i) one year or (ii) the remainder of Mr. Dwight's employment term. The Employment Agreement of Richard F. Tusing, our Chief Operating Officer, provides that, upon the occurrence of any transaction as defined as a "change of control" of Kronos that is not approved by the Board of Directors, Mr. Tusing shall receive his salary and benefits for a period of time that is the greater of (i) one year or (ii) the remainder of Mr. Tusing's employment term. Certain Relationships and Related Transactions We believe that all prior related party transactions have been entered into upon terms no less favorable to us than those that could be obtained from unaffiliated third parties. Our reasonable belief of fair value is based upon proximate similar transactions with third parties or attempts to obtain the consideration from third parties. All ongoing and future transactions with such persons, including any loans or compensation to such persons, will be approved by a majority of disinterested members of the Board of Directors. On March 31, 2004, we entered into promissory notes (the "Notes") with Daniel R. Dwight and Richard F. Tusing in exchange for past due compensation, expenses and interest due and payable for $363,139 and $485,883, respectively. The Notes bear a simple interest rate 1% per month and call for aggregate monthly principal and interest payments $6,718 and $8,989, respectively, for each month in which the Company's beginning cash balance equals or exceeds $200,000. Subject to certain conditions, including default, these Notes become payable in full. In the event of a debt or equity financing, 20% of the proceeds derived from the financing will be used to pay down the outstanding interest and principal obligations. As a result of a Cornell Capital financing, with the Company on March 7, 2005, the Notes are due and payable in full. As of June 30, 2005, $348,513 was still outstanding under the terms of the Notes. 10 DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK Our authorized capital stock consists of 500,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, and 50,000,000 shares of preferred stock, no par value. As of November 17, 2005 81,758,067 shares of common stock were issued and outstanding; no shares of our preferred stock are issued and outstanding.

Common Stock Holders of our common stock are entitled to one vote for each share held on all matters submitted to a vote of stockholders, including the election of directors. Accordingly, holders of a majority of our common stock entitled to vote in any election of directors may elect all of the directors standing for election should they choose to do so. Neither our Articles of Incorporation nor our Bylaws provide for cumulative voting for the election of directors. Holders of our common stock are entitled to receive their pro rata share of any dividends declared from time to time by the Board of Directors out of funds legally available therefor.

Preferred Stock Our Articles of Incorporation authorizes 50,000,000 shares of preferred stock, no par value. No shares of preferred stock are issued and outstanding as of the date of this prospectus. The Board of Directors is authorized, subject to any limitations prescribed by the Nevada Revised Statutes, or the rules of any quotation system or national securities exchange on which our stock may be quoted or listed, to provide for the issuance of shares of preferred stock in one or more series; to establish from time to time the number of shares to be included in each such series; to fix the rights, powers, preferences, and privileges of the shares of such series, without further vote or action by the stockholders. Depending upon the terms of the preferred stock established by the Board of Directors, any or all series of preferred stock could have preference over the common stock with respect to dividends and other distributions and upon liquidation of the Company or could have voting or conversion rights that could adversely affect the holders of the outstanding common stock. There are no present plans by the Board of Directors to issue preferred shares or address the rights to be assigned thereto.

The shares underlying the warrant have piggyback and demand registration rights, as well as subscription rights in the event that we issue any rights to all of our stockholders to subscribe for shares of our common stock. In addition, the warrant contains redemption rights in the event that we enter into a transaction that results in a change of control of our company. We registered all of the shares underlying The Eagle Rock Group's warrant in a Form S-1 Registration Statement filed with the U.S. Securities & Exchange Commission on August 16, 2002. In March 2002, we entered into an agreement with The Eagle Rock Group extending our relationship with The Eagle Rock Group until March 1, 2003. Pursuant to the agreement, we agreed to grant to The Eagle Rock Group a ten-year warrant for the right to purchase 500,000 shares of our common stock. In May 2003, Kronos entered into a Master Loan and Investment Agreement with a strategic customer, HoMedics, Inc., for $2.5 million in financing, including $2.4 million in secured debt financing and $100,000 for the purchase of warrants. In connection with this Agreement, we agreed to grant HoMedics a ten-year warrant for the right to purchase 13.4 million shares of our common stock. The exercise price was set at the market price at the time of closing ($0.10). In October 2004, in connection with the First Amendment to Master Loan and Investment Agreement with HoMedics, agreed to grant to HoMedics a ten-year warrant for the right to purchase 26.5 million shares of our common stock. The exercise price is $0.10 per share. In consideration for the warrant, HoMedics delivered to Kronos $75,000 by funding the closing fees owed by Kronos and HoMedics agreed to amend two (2) warrants to purchase 13.4 million shares of Kronos' common stock previously issued by Kronos by removing the anti-dilution protection previously granted to HoMedics. Kronos agreed to include new anti-dilution protection in the new warrant. HoMedics is entitled, under certain circumstances, to anti-dilution protection in order to maintain beneficial ownership of Kronos equal to 30%. HoMedics may not be diluted below 30% for any funds raised at less than $0.20 per share, excluding options or shares issued to management, directors, and consultants in the normal course of business or shares issued to Cornell Capital in repayment of the two promissory notes. There are no anti-dilution measures for funds raised at greater than $0.20 per share. In addition, Kronos agreed to grant HoMedics piggy-back registration rights and one (1) demand registration right with respect to any shares of common stock of Kronos that HoMedics may acquire pursuant to the two (2) previously issued warrants and the warrant issued in October 2004 in connection with the First Amendment to Master Loan and Investment Agreement. HoMedics also agreed not to exercise any warrants until one year after the effective date of the registration statement to be filed pursuant to the Investor Registration Rights Agreement with Cornell Capital. 13 Anti-Takeover Effects of Provisions of the Articles of Incorporation, Bylaws and Nevada Law The following provisions of the Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws of our Company could discourage potential acquisition proposals and could delay or prevent a change in control of our Company.
