A Phase 1, Open-Label Study to Assess the Effect of Severe Hepatic Impairment on the Pharmacokinetics of Intravenous Conivaptan

The purpose of this study is to assess the pharmacokinetics and safety of a 48-hour
continuous infusion of conivaptan in subjects with severe liver impairment compared to
subjects with normal liver function.

Subjects will be admitted to the Phase 1 unit Day -2 and will remain confined to the unit
until discharge on Study Day 5 after completion of all study procedures.
