DAVID R. THOMPSON, Circuit Judge:

OVERVIEW

The plaintiffs are former employees of Kaiser Steel Corporation. They brought this suit under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act to recover annuities they contend they are entitled to under the terms of Kaiser’s pension plan, and/or as a result of the individual defendants’ breach of their fiduciary duties. The district court granted the defendants’ summary judgment motion and dismissed the plaintiffs’ claims. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291, and we affirm.
