CAPNIA, INC.

1235 Radio Road, Suite 110

Redwood City, CA 94065

On April 20, 2016, Capnia, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Company”), filed a definitive proxy statement (the “Proxy Statement”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) in connection with the solicitation of proxies on behalf of the Board of Directors of the Company for use at the Company’s 2016 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”) and at any adjournments or postponements thereof. The Annual Meeting will be held at the Company’s principal executive office located at 1235 Radio Road, Suite 110, Redwood City, CA 94065 on Wednesday June 8, 2016, at 8:00 a.m., Pacific Time.

This amendment to the Proxy Statement is being filed with the SEC by the Company to correct a clerical error in the Proxy Statement with respect to executive compensation of the Company’s named executive officers set forth in the 2015 Summary Compensation Table, which inadvertently omitted the compensation awarded to or earned by the Company’s named executive officers during the year ended December 31, 2014.

The “2015 Summary Compensation Table” in the Proxy Statement, together with the paragraph immediately preceding the “2015 Summary Compensation Table”, is replaced in its entirety with the following:


The Summary Compensation Table below sets forth information regarding the compensation awarded to or earned by our named executive officers during the years ended December 31, 2015, and December 31, 2014.
