(a)The rate of contribution of a member subject to this article shall include, in addition to his or her normal rate, two dollars ($2) per month or fraction thereof, or ninety-three cents ($0.93) for each biweekly payroll period or fraction thereof, where salaries are paid on that basis. Those contributions shall not become a part of a member’s accumulated contributions or be treated or administered as normal contributions and shall not be refundable to a member under any circumstances. Those contributions shall be available only for payment of 1959 survivor allowances.
(b)Notwithstanding subdivision (a), the total required monthly premium for Section 21574.5, as determined by the board, shall be offset by the uniform amortization of surplus assets within this account. If the total monthly premium is equal to, or less than, four dollars ($4), the member contribution portion shall be two dollars ($2) per month and the employer shall pay the difference, if any. If the total monthly premium required exceeds four dollars ($4), the member and the employer shall evenly share the total required monthly premium.
(c)Notwithstanding subdivision (a), the total monthly premium required for Section 21574.7, as determined by the board, shall be offset by the uniform amortization of surplus assets within this account. Member contributions shall be two dollars ($2) per month until such time as the future required monthly premium exceeds four dollars ($4), and the employer shall pay the difference between the total required monthly premium and the member’s contribution. Once the total required monthly premium exceeds four dollars ($4), the member and the employer shall evenly share the required monthly premium.
