1Opinion of the Court
FLETCHER, Circuit Judge:
Former employees of Ward Foods’ Honiron Division appeal the district court’s judgment limiting damages for Ward’s negligent misrepresentation of its pension plan to the employees’ “out-of-pocket” losses. The employees also challenge the district court’s grant of suminary judgment on two counts of their complaint, and the granting of directed verdicts on four other counts. The employees also contest certain evidentiary rulings during trial, and decisions on jury instructions.
We affirm the district court in part, and reverse and remand in part.
