¶5ON SUGGESTION FOR REHEARING EN BANC

¶6Before GARZA, RANDALL, and TATE, Circuit Judges.

¶7PER CURIAM:

¶8In their suggestions for rehearing, the defendants-appellees note, inter alia, that in *1085Part I of the panel opinion the statement that the anti-competition agreement was illegal “[w]ithout substantial dispute” is subject to the interpretation that the panel held that the agreement was an illegal tying arrangement as a matter of law. We did not intend to so hold. In the context of ruling on the propriety of summary judgment, our intent was to state only that, for purposes of a motion for summary judgment, disputed material issues of material fact (most favorably construed, as required, in favor of the motion’s opponent) without substantial dispute permitted the inference of such illegality. The original panel opinion, 753 F.2d 457, is clarified to this extent. The panel does not find merit in the other contentions advanced in the suggestions for rehearing.

¶9Treating the suggestion for rehearing en banc as a petition for panel rehearing, it is ordered that the petition for panel rehearing is DENIED. No member of the panel nor Judge in regular active service of this Court having requested that the Court be polled on rehearing en banc (Federal Rules of Appellate Procedure and Local Rule 35), the suggestion for Rehearing En Banc is DENIED.
