evidence of clinically significant abnormalities not believed to be due to the
presence of COPD.

- Hospitalization: Subjects who are hospitalized due to poorly controlled COPD within 12
weeks of Visit 1.

- Poorly controlled COPD: Subjects with poorly controlled COPD, defined as the
occurrence of the following in the 6 weeks prior to Visit 1: Acute worsening of COPD
that is managed by subject with corticosteroids or antibiotics or that requires
treatment prescribed by a physician.

- Lower respiratory tract infection: Subjects with lower respiratory tract infection
that required the use of antibiotics within 6 weeks prior to Visit 1.

- Other diseases/abnormalities: Subjects with historical or current evidence of

corticosteroids for the protocol-specified times prior to Visit 1 (the Investigator
will discuss the specific medications)

- Oxygen therapy: Subjects receiving treatment with long-term oxygen therapy (LTOT) or
nocturnal oxygen therapy required for greater than 12 hours a day. Oxygen prn use
(i.e., ≤12 hours per day) is not exclusionary.

- Sleep apnea: Subjects with clinically significant sleep apnea who require use of
continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) device or non-invasive positive pressure
ventilation (NIPPV) device.

- Pulmonary rehabilitation: Subjects who have participated in the acute phase of a
Pulmonary Rehabilitation Program within 4 weeks prior to Screening (Visit 1) or who
will enter the acute phase of a Pulmonary Rehabilitation Program during the study.

- Non-compliance: Subjects at risk of non-compliance, or unable to comply with the study
procedures. Any infirmity, disability, or geographic location that would limit
compliance for scheduled visits.

- Questionable validity of consent: Subjects with a history of psychiatric disease,
