     It is now ordered that the published Opinion in the above case filed July 22, 2008, be
amended as follows:

       On page 8, top partial paragraph beginning “factual attack,” line 9, replace “Dist. Ct.
Op. at 2-3 ” with “CNA v. United States, No. 06-126, 

, at *1 (W.D.Pa.
Nov. 20, 2006)”.

       On page 8, first full paragraph beginning “That the Government’s,” line 5, replace
“Dist. Ct. Op. 3” with “Id.”.

       On page 8, second full paragraph beginning “After a factual inquiry,” line 2, replace
“Dist. Ct. Op. 6” with “id. at *3”.

      On page 9, first partial paragraph beginning “authorized time,” line 3, replace “Dist.
Ct. Op. 5” with “Id. at *2”.

       On page 16, first full paragraph beginning “Arbaugh does not,” line 12, remove
internal apostrophes from the quotation “ ‘count as jurisdictional,’ ” so that the quotation
reads “count as jurisdictional,”.

        On page 23, bottom partial paragraph beginning “Nonetheless, we hold,” line 6,
remove the word “here” from the phrase “no factual disputes that are here relevant” so that
it reads “no factual disputes that are relevant”.

       On page 33, bottom partial paragraph beginning “Subrogees also allege,” line 6,
remove quotation marks from the quotation “shall not apply to”. This will change the
parenthetical beginning on line 6 to read: (specifying that the provisions of the FTCA shall
not apply to “[a]ny claim based upon an act or omission of an employee of the Government,
exercising due care, in the execution of a statute or regulation . . . or based upon the exercise
or performance [of] a discretionary function”).


                                            By the Court,
