ORDER AMENDING 

### PRECEDENTIAL OPINION AMBRO, Circuit Judge It is now ordered that the published Opin ion 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, 2006 WL 3366147, 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 24, top partial paragraph beginning “space limitations,” line 1, replace “Dist. Ct. Op. 5” with “ CNA , 2006 WL 3366147, at *2”.3 

### 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 statut e or regulation . . . or based upon the exercise or performance [of] a discretionary function”).
