Clinical Study Protocol 1002-039 Amendment 1, 05 March 2017 Primary Endpoint The primary efficacy endpoint for this study is the percent change from baseline to Month 2 in LDL-C. Secondary Endpoints 1. Percent change from baseline to Month 1 in LDL-C 2. Change from baseline to Month 1 and Month 2 in LDL-C 3. Percent change from baseline to Month 1 and Month 2 in ApoB, non-HDL-C, TC, and hs-CRP 4. Safety and tolerability of bempedoic acid in this patient population over 2 months, as assessed by adverse events (AEs) and clinical laboratory values Exploratory Endpoints For details of study assessments, see the Schedule of Events (Appendix 1). Number of patients (planned): Approximately 52 adult male and female patients Diagnosis and Criteria for Inclusion: Key inclusion criteria 1. Provision of written informed consent must be obtained prior to any study-specific procedure. 2. Age ≥18 years or legal age of majority depending on regional law, whichever is greater at Month -4.5 (Visit S1) 3. Fasting, calculated LDL-C at screening (Visit S2) ≥160 mg/dL and ≥70 mg/dL at Visit S4 Note: A single repeat of LDL-C may be completed. For those patients who have a repeat LDL-C, the average of the 2 values will be used to determine eligibility. 4. Men and nonpregnant, nonlactating women. Women must be: a. Naturally postmenopausal defined as ≥1 year without menses and: − ≥55 years, or − <55 years with follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) ≥40.0 IU/L; or b. Surgically sterile including hysterectomy, bilateral oophorectomy, and/or tubal ligation; or c. Women of childbearing potential willing to use 2 acceptable methods of birth control including: − oral, implanted, topical or injectable birth control medications − placement of an intrauterine device with or without hormones − barrier methods including condom or occlusive cap with spermicidal foam or spermicidal jelly − vasectomized male partner who is the sole partner for this patient − true abstinence: when this is in line with the preferred and usual lifestyle of the subject. (Periodic abstinence [eg, calendar, ovulation, symptothermal, postovulation methods], declaration of abstinence for the duration of a trial, and withdrawal are not acceptable methods of contraception) There are no protocol-specific birth control requirements for men with partners who are able to become pregnant. Confidential Page 4 of 114 Bempedoic Acid Esperion Therapeutics, Inc. Clinical Study Protocol 1002-039 Amendment 1, 05 March 2017 Key exclusion criteria 1.

For those patients who have a repeat TG, the average of the 2 values will be used to determine eligibility. 3.

Note: A single repeat of eGFR may be completed prior to randomization. For those patients who have a repeat eGFR, the average of the 2 values will be used to determine eligibility. 4. All patients with known cardiovascular disease (CVD) or peripheral arterial disease (PAD) or cerebrovascular disease (CD). 5. History of type 1 or type 2 diabetes or laboratory evidence of diabetes (fasting blood glucose [FBG] >126 mg/dL or glycosylated hemoglobin, Type A1C [HbA1C] >6.5%) without prior diagnosis of diabetes at Month -4.5 (Visit S1) 6. Uncontrolled hypertension defined as sitting systolic blood pressure (SBP) >160 mmHg or diastolic blood pressure (DBP) >100 mmHg at Month -4.5 (Visit S1). 7. Uncontrolled hypothyroidism, including thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) >1.5 × the upper limit of normal (ULN) at Month -4.5 (Visit S1). 8. Liver disease or dysfunction, including: a. Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and/or aspartate aminotransferase (AST) ≥2.0 × ULN at Month -4.5 (Visit S1). b. Positive serology for hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) and/or hepatitis C antibodies (HCV-ABVivi) at Month -4.5 (Visit S1). Note: If total bilirubin (TB) ≥1.2 × ULN, a reflex indirect (unconjugated) bilirubin will be obtained and if consistent with Gilbert’s disease, the patient may be enrolled in the study. Note: At the discretion of the investigator, a single repeat of ALT and/or AST may be completed. For those patients who have a repeat ALT and/or AST, the average of the 2 values will be used to determine eligibility. Also, if test for hepatitis C antibody is positive, but reflexive test for Hepatitis C ribonucleic acid (RNA) is negative, patient can be enrolled. 9. Gastrointestinal conditions or procedures (including weight loss surgery; eg, Lap-Band®
