   TONGUE, J.

Respondent SAIF petitions for rehearing of our decision in Fossum v. SAIF, 289 Or 787, 619 P2d 233 (1980), contending that our opinion failed to address all issues necessary for a proper disposition of the case. We deny rehearing but amend the last paragraph of the opinion to read as follows:

"For these reasons, we reverse the decision of the Court of Appeals and we remand this case to the Court of Appeals for consideration of plaintiff’s claim on its merits.”

Petition denied.
