Summary judgment for defendant-employer on age discrimination and overtime claims is affirmed where: 1) one defendant could not show that the reasons offered for his elimination were mere pretext and was an exempt executive for overtime pay purposes; and 2) the other defendant did not make out a prima facie case for discrimination since he did not suffer an adverse employment action.
