Supplement to Opinion for Clarification Purposes Only

The opinion in the above-entitled appeal was handed down on July 15, 1987, and appellees have filed their request for reconsideration upon various grounds which the majority of the court does not find to be persuasive. It appears, however, that language in the opinion on # 15329, relating to the liability of Case/Tenneco for IHC dealers with respect to (a) express assumption and (b) implied assumption may be subject to misunderstanding and that clarification is appropriate.
The language in the opinion must be considered in the context of the issue of the propriety of summary judgment in favor of Case/Tenneco against Groseth, not the pro*177priety of summary judgment for Groseth against Case/Tenneco. Nor was it intended to imply that the latter was proper. Case/Tenneeo’s liability, if any, on these issues is for the jury to determine on proper instructions.
With this clarification, the opinion as handed down is in all other regards reaffirmed.
MORGAN, J., concurs.
HENDERSON, J., concurs specially.
WUEST, C.J., and FOSHEIM, Retired Justice, dissent.
MILLER, J., not having been a member of the court at the time this action was submitted to the court, did not participate.
