KENNEDY, Circuit Judge.
This case presents cross appeals from the District Court's judgment awarding relief to Kentucky state troopers mandatorily retired at age fifty-five under KY.REV.STAT. ANN. § 16.505(15) (Baldwin 1994). The Kentucky State Police Department ("KSP") contends that the District Court erred by tolling the statute of limitations for state troopers retired before October 19, 1981 and by excluding two memos that it claims gave troopers constructive notice of their rights under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967 ("ADEA"); it also asserts that the District Court erred in calculating back pay and other relief for the mandatorily retired officers. In its cross appeal, the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission ("EEOC") contends that the District Court erred when it refused to toll the statute of limitations for employees retired between April 6, 1978 and January 1, 1979; when it denied EEOC's motion to amend the names of troopers not included in the original complaint; and when it refused to award prejudgment interest for the entire back-pay period. For the following reasons, we shall affirm in part and reverse in part.
