employee would otherwise have been entitled had he or she fully
retired on the effective date of the partial service retirement,
reduced by the percentage of the employee's full-time work which the
employee has elected to work while on partial service retirement.
   (b) Article 6 (commencing with Section 21450) shall not apply to
an employee who is participating in reduced worktime for partial

Sections 21110 through 21115 to become fully retired, the current
service pension, or current and prior service pensions, as the case
may be, upon his or her full service retirement shall be (1) the sum
of a current service pension calculated on the basis of service
rendered during participation in reduced worktime in accordance with
the formula applicable to his or her current service pension, plus
his or her current service pension, or current and prior service
pensions, as the case may be, as it was prior to his or her full
service retirement, provided that full service retirement occurs
before he or she renders, while participating in reduced worktime for
partial service retirement, one year of state service credited under
this system; or (2) if he or she has rendered one year or more of
state service while participating in reduced worktime for partial
service retirement, a current service pension, or current and prior
service pensions, as the case may be, based on the total years of
service with which the member is entitled to be credited, calculated
on the basis of the formula currently applicable to the employment in
which the service was rendered. A member shall receive service
credit for service during participation in reduced worktime for
partial retirement and service credited at the time of the election
to participate in reduced worktime for partial retirement.




21357.  (a) For a member reinstated from service retirement or
partial service retirement, the current service pension, or current
and prior service pensions, as the case may be, upon his or her
service retirement subsequent to the reinstatement, shall be the sum
of (1) a current service pension calculated on the basis of service
rendered after reinstatement in accordance with the formula
applicable to him or her in that service and membership, plus, (2) if
the subsequent retirement occurs before he or she renders, after his
or her reinstatement, at least one year of state service credited
under this system, or if the subsequent service or disability
retirement occurs after his or her reinstatement from service or
disability retirement pursuant to an election under Section 21465,
his or her current service pension, or current and prior service
pensions, as the case may be, as it was prior to his or her
reinstatement, adjusted for any service on which the pension was
based that was included in coverage of the federal system during
reinstatement according to the formula applicable to the service in
employment for which he or she was retired, and further adjusted
according to any change after reinstatement in the provisions
governing the calculation of his or her pension that would have
applied to him or her had he or she continued in retirement but been
subject to the formula applied in the first adjustment; or, for state
miscellaneous and state industrial service subject to Section 21076,
in lieu of (2), plus (3) a current service pension, or current and
prior service pensions, as the case may be, as it would have been
prior to his or her reinstatement under the formula applicable to
Section 21076, adjusted for any service on which the pension was
based that was included in coverage of the federal system during
reinstatement according to the formula applicable to the service in
employment for which he or she was retired, and further adjusted
according to any change after reinstatement in the provisions
governing the calculations of his or her pension that would have
applied to him or her had he or she continued in retirement and been
subject to the formula applicable to Section 21076, or if he or she
has rendered one year or more of state service after reinstatement,
in lieu of (2) or (3), plus (4), a current service pension based on
current service rendered prior to reinstatement, calculated on the
basis of the formula currently applicable to the employment in which
the service was rendered but on the basis of an age taken to the
preceding completed quarter year but not less than the minimum
retirement age applicable to him or her at his or her last retirement
and determined by deducting from his or her age at his or her
subsequent retirement, the aggregate time during which he or she was
under retirement. For a member reinstated from nonindustrial
disability retirement, the current service pension upon his or her
service retirement after attaining an age one year less than the
minimum age at which he or she could have retired without an
actuarial discount because of age in the employment from which he or
she was last retired, or upon his or her disability retirement after
attaining the minimum age, and subsequent to reinstatement, shall be
calculated in the manners described in the preceding sentence, but
the age determined upon subsequent retirement after rendering at
least one year of state service credited under this system shall not
be taken at less than one year less than the minimum age if the
subsequent retirement is for service, or the minimum age if the
retirement is for disability.
   (b) The current service pension otherwise payable under this
section to a member whose allowance prior to reinstatement was paid
pursuant to his or her election under Section 21461 shall be reduced
by the actuarial equivalent, on the date of retirement subsequent to
reinstatement, of the amount (converted as below), if any, by which:
   (1) The total amount paid in the period during which a temporary
annuity was included in the payments, reduced by the total amount
that would have been payable during that period had the election not
been made, exceeds
   (2) The excess of the total amount that would have been payable,
had the election not been made, during the time subsequent to that
period and prior to reinstatement, over the total amount actually
paid during that time.
   The amount determined by the above formula shall be converted to
an amount equaling the actuarial equivalent on the date of
reinstatement and this latter amount shall be the basis of the
actuarial equivalent on the date of retirement subsequent to
reinstatement.
   Actuarial equivalents required by this section shall be based on
the interest rate and mortality tables in use by this system on the
date of retirement subsequent to reinstatement.
   (c) Notwithstanding this section, or any other provision of this
part, the current service pension payable to any member subject to
this section who rendered one year or more of state service credited
under this system after reinstatement on retirement for service
subsequent to reinstatement from service retirement for any credited
service for which a current service pension was paid prior to
reinstatement shall not be less than the current service pension that
would be payable on the date of the subsequent retirement had the
member not been reinstated. For state miscellaneous and state
industrial service subject to Section 21076, the current service
pension payable for any credited service for which a current service
pension was paid prior to reinstatement shall not be less than the
current service pension that would have been payable on the date of
the subsequent retirement had the member's retirement been subject to
the formula under Section 21076 and had not been reinstated,
adjusted, however, by any reduction under this section because of an
election under Section 21461 and, for any service so credited that
was included in coverage of the federal system during reinstatement,
according to the formula applicable to the service in employment from
which he or she was retired.



21358.  Notwithstanding Section 21357, the retirement allowance of a
state member, other than a university member, payable upon
retirement within one year of reinstatement from an earlier
retirement of six months or less and based on service prior to
reinstatement shall not include any allowance based on service
credited under Section 20963.
   This section shall not apply to school members.



21359.  Notwithstanding Section 21357, in determining the method of
calculation of subsequent retirement benefits for a university
employee who, on the date of reemployment and reinstatement from
retirement, did not have the right to elect membership in this
system, the service rendered under the University of California
Retirement Plan after reemployment and reinstatement shall be
considered service rendered under this system.



21362.  (a) The current service pension for patrol members and the
combined current and prior service pensions for local safety members
with respect to local safety service rendered to a contracting agency
that is subject to this section is a pension derived from the
contributions of the employer sufficient when added to the service
retirement annuity that is derived from the accumulated normal
contributions of the patrol member or local safety member at the date
of his or her retirement to equal the fraction of one-fiftieth of
his or her final compensation set forth opposite his or her age at
retirement taken to the preceding completed quarter year, in the
following table, multiplied by the number of years of patrol service
and local safety service subject to this section with which he or she
is credited at retirement:

  Age at
  retirement                             Fraction

   (b) (1) Except as otherwise provided in this subdivision, the
current service pension and the combined current and prior service
pensions under this section for all service to all employers shall
not exceed an amount that, when added to the service retirement
annuity related to that service, equals 75 percent of final
compensation.
   (2) For state members, with respect to service for all state
employers under this section, the benefit shall not exceed:
   (A) Eighty percent of final compensation for state members who
retire on or after January 1, 1995, and prior to January 1, 1999.
   (B) Eighty-five percent of final compensation for state members
who retire on or after January 1, 1999, and prior to January 1, 2000.
   (C) Ninety percent of final compensation for state members who
retire on or after January 1, 2000.
   (3) For local safety members who retire on or after January 1,
2000, the benefit shall not exceed 85 percent of final compensation.
   (4) If the pension relates to service to more than one employer
and would otherwise exceed that maximum, the pension payable with
respect to each employer shall be reduced in the same proportion as
the allowance based on service to that employer bears to the total
allowance computed as though there were no limit, so that the total
of the pensions shall equal the maximum. Where a state or local
member retiring on or after January 1, 1995, has service under this
section with both state and local agency employers, the higher
maximum shall apply and the additional benefit shall be funded by
increasing the member's pension payable with respect to the employer
for whom the member performed the service subject to the higher
maximum.
   (c) This section shall not apply to any contracting agency, unless
and until the agency elects to be subject to the provisions of this
section by amendment to its contract made in the manner prescribed
for approval of contracts or, in the case of contracts made after the

making the contracting agency subject to the provisions of this
section.
   (d) This section shall supersede Section 21363, 21366, 21368,

   (g) The Legislature reserves, with respect to any member subject
to this section, the right to provide for the adjustment of
industrial disability retirement allowances because of earnings of a
retired person and modification of the conditions and qualifications
required for retirement for disability as it may find appropriate
because of the earlier ages of service retirement made possible by
the benefits under this section.



21362.2.  (a) Upon attaining the age of 50 years or more, the
combined current and prior service pension for state patrol members
and for local safety members with respect to local safety service
rendered to a contracting agency that is subject to the provisions of
this section is a pension derived from the contributions of the
employer sufficient when added to the service retirement annuity that
is derived from the accumulated normal contributions of the member
at the date of his or her retirement to equal 3 percent of his or her
final compensation at retirement, multiplied by the number of years
of patrol service or local safety service subject to this section
with which he or she is credited at retirement.
   (b) In no event shall the current service pension and the combined
current and prior service pensions under this section for all
service to all employers exceed an amount that, when added to the
service retirement annuity related to that service, equals 85 percent
of final compensation. For state patrol members with respect to
service for all state employers under this section, the benefit shall
not exceed 90 percent of final compensation. If the pension relates
to service to more than one employer and would otherwise exceed that
maximum, the pension payable with respect to each employer shall be
reduced in the same proportion as the allowance based on service to
that employer bears to the total allowance computed as though there
were no limit, so that the total of the pensions shall equal the
maximum. Where a state or local member has service under this section
with both state and local agency employers, the higher maximum shall
apply and the additional benefit shall be funded by increasing the
member's pension payable with respect to the employer for whom the
member performed the service subject to the higher maximum.
   (c) For patrol members employed by the state on or after January
1, 2000, this section shall supersede Section 21362.
   (d) This section shall not apply to state safety or state peace
officer/firefighter members.
   (e) This section shall not apply to any contracting agency nor its
employees unless and until the agency elects to be subject to the
provisions of this section by amendment to its contract made in the
manner prescribed for approval of contracts or, in the case of
contracts made after the date this section becomes operative, by
express provision in the contract making the contracting agency
subject to this section. The operative date of this section for a
local safety member shall be the effective date of the amendment to
his or her employer's contract electing to be subject to this
section.
   (f) This section shall supersede Section 21362, 21363, 21363.1,
21366, 21368, 21369, or 21370, whichever is then applicable, with
respect to local safety members who retire after the date this
section becomes applicable to their respective employers.
   (g) The Legislature reserves, with respect to any member subject
to this section, the right to provide for the adjustment of
industrial disability retirement allowances because of earnings of a
retired person and modification of the conditions and qualifications
required for retirement for disability as it may find appropriate
because of the earlier ages of service retirement made possible by
the benefits under this section.

limitations set forth in Section 21251.13.

section shall not apply to a state patrol member who is employed by
the state for the first time and becomes a state patrol member of the
system on or after October 31, 2010, and is represented by State

managerial, supervisory, or confidential positions and officers or
employees of the executive branch of state government who are not
members of the civil service, the Director of the Department of
Personnel Administration may exercise his or her discretion whether
to approve their status in writing to the board.



21362.3.  (a) Notwithstanding subdivision (b) of Section 21362.2,
for the California Highway Patrol Commissioner, with respect to
service to all state employers under Section 21362.2, the benefit may
not exceed 100 percent of final compensation.
   (b) This section shall become inoperative on January 1, 2008,
unless a later enacted statute deletes or extends that date.



21363.  (a) The combined current and prior service pensions for
state peace officer/firefighter members subject to this section with
respect to state peace officer/firefighter service and the combined
current and prior service pensions for local safety members with
respect to local safety service rendered to a contracting agency that
is subject to this section is a pension derived from the
contributions of the employer sufficient when added to the service
retirement annuity that is derived from the accumulated normal
contributions of the state peace officer/firefighter or local safety
member at the date of his or her retirement to equal the fraction of
one-fiftieth of his or her final compensation set forth opposite his
or her age at retirement taken to the preceding completed quarter
year, in the following table, multiplied by the number of years of
state peace officer/firefighter service or local safety service
subject to this section with which he or she is credited at

section and Section 21369, and would otherwise exceed that maximum,

allowance computed as though there were no limit, so that the total
of the pensions shall equal the maximum. Where a state or local
member retiring on or after January 1, 1995, has service under this

maximum shall apply and the additional benefit, if any, shall be
funded by increasing the member's pension payable with respect to the
employer for whom the member performed the service subject to the
higher maximum.
   (c) The Legislature reserves, with respect to any member subject
to this section, the right to provide for the adjustment of

employees until, first, it is agreed to in a written memorandum of
understanding entered into by an employer and representatives of
employees and, second, the contracting agency elects to be subject to
it by amendment to its contract made in the manner prescribed for
approval of contracts or in the case of a new contract, by express
provision of the contract. The operative date of this section with
respect to a local safety member shall be the effective date of the

21363.3.  (a) The combined current and prior service pensions for
state peace officer/firefighter members described in Section 20394 is
a pension derived from the contributions of the employer sufficient
when added to the service retirement annuity that is derived from the
accumulated normal contributions of the member at the date of his or
her retirement to equal 3 percent of his or her final compensation
at the age of 50 years, multiplied by the number of years of state
peace officer/firefighter service subject to this section with which
he or she is credited at retirement.
   (b) In no event shall the current service pension and the combined
current and prior service pensions under this section for all
service to all employers exceed an amount that, when added to the
service retirement annuity related to that service, equals 90 percent
of final compensation. If the pension relates to service to more
than one employer and would otherwise exceed that maximum, the
pension payable with respect to each employer shall be reduced in the
same proportion as the allowance based on service to that employer
bears to the total allowance computed as though there were no limit,
so that the total of the pensions shall equal the maximum. Where a
state peace officer/firefighter member has service under this
section, or other safety retirement formulas pursuant to this part
with state or local agency employers, the higher maximum shall apply
and the additional benefit shall be funded by increasing the member's
pension payable with respect to the state employer.
   (c) This section shall apply to state peace officer/firefighter
members described in Section 20394 if authorized by, and in
accordance with, a memorandum of understanding reached between the

University have approved the application in writing to the Board of
Administration of the Public Employees' Retirement System.

peace officer/firefighter service for members employed by the
California State University police department on or after the date a
memorandum of understanding, or action by the Trustees of the
California State University regarding related management positions,
makes this section applicable to these members.
   (e) This section may not prevent a subsequent memorandum of
understanding, or subsequent action by the Trustees of the California
State University regarding related management positions, from making
this section inapplicable to peace officer/firefighter members first
employed by the California State University police department on or
after a date specified in a subsequent memorandum of understanding,
or subsequent action by the Trustees of the California State
University regarding related management positions.
   (f) (1) Notwithstanding any other provision of this section, this
section shall not apply to a state peace officer/firefighter member
described in Section 20394 who is employed for the first time and
becomes a state peace officer/firefighter member of the system on or

effect and current on January 15, 2011, this section shall be
controlling and may not be superseded by a subsequent memorandum of
understanding.

contributions of the employer sufficient when added to the service
retirement annuity that is derived from the accumulated normal
contributions of the member at the date of his or her retirement to
equal 3 percent of his or her final compensation at retirement,
multiplied by the number of years of state peace officer/firefighter
service, as defined in subdivision (d), subject to this section with
which he or she is credited at retirement.

service for all state employers under this section, the current
service pension and the combined current and prior service pension
under this section shall not exceed an amount that, when added to the
service retirement annuity related to that service, equals 90
percent of final compensation. If the pension relates to service to
more than one employer and would otherwise exceed that maximum, the
pension payable with respect to each employer shall be reduced in the
same proportion as the allowance based on service to that employer
bears to the total allowance computed as though there were no limit,
so that the total of the pensions shall equal the maximum.

of understanding and agrees to the application of this section, the
county may elect to be subject to Section 21362 with respect to only

                                        service
  If retirement occurs at age:            is:

provisions of this part as they existed on November 30, 1968.
   This section shall not apply to any local safety member in the
employ of an employer not subject to this section on March 4, 1972.

in his or her employment, shall be reduced by one-third as applied to
that part of the member's final compensation that does not exceed
four hundred dollars ($400) per month.
   This section shall not apply to any contracting agency nor to the
employees of any contracting agency until the agency elects to be
subject to this section by amendment to its contract made in the
manner prescribed for approval of contracts, or, in the case of
contracts made after October 1, 1965, by express provision in the
contract making the contracting agency subject to this section.
   This section and Section 21362 or 21366, as the case may be, shall

agency electing to be subject hereto. However, members in employment
of the contracting agency on the effective date of the contract
amendment subjecting the agency and its employees to this section and
Section 21366 may elect, in accordance with board rules, to continue
to be subject to Section 21368, and the contracting agency shall be
subject to Section 21368 rather than this section with respect to
members who so elect. The election shall cease to be effective if,
prior to the member's retirement, his or her employer elects to be
subject to Section 21362 or 21369 or elects to terminate coverage of
the federal system for persons in the member's employment.

service computed according to the following formula:
   (1) 0.50 times the product of his or her age at retirement and his
or her years of credited prior and current service not in excess of
20 years, plus
   (2) 0.40 times the product of his or her age at retirement and his
or her years of credited prior and current service in excess of 20
years.
   (b) The percentage of final compensation set forth opposite his or
her age at retirement in the following table multiplied by the
number of years of credited current and prior service as a safety
member in the employ of all contracting agencies subject to this
section at the time of his or her retirement:

                                    The percent for
                                     each year of
                                       credited

   The temporary annuity under subdivision (a) of this section shall
not be subject to the optional settlements under Article 6
(commencing with Section 21450) and shall be payable monthly until
the retired member attains or would have attained age 65. Should his
or her death occur prior to age 65, the commuted value of any
remaining installments shall be paid to his or her designated
beneficiary in the manner provided in former Section 21332.5, as
added by Chapter 1264 of the Statutes of 1953, for payment of death
benefits under optional settlement one.

proportion to the total reserves required as the years of credited
prior service bear to the total years of credited service. The agency'
s liability for current service shall consist of the remainder of the
total reserves required after deducting the liability for prior
service and the accumulated normal contributions of the member.
   This section shall apply only to a contracting agency that elected

amendment thereto to be subject hereto.

retirement after attaining the age of 55 years, is a pension derived
from contributions of an employer sufficient, when added to that
portion of the service retirement annuity that is derived from the
accumulated normal contributions of the member at the date of his or
her retirement, to equal one-fiftieth of his or her final
compensation multiplied by the number of years of state safety,
police, fire, or county peace officer service that is credited to him
or her as a state safety member or a local safety member subject to
this section at retirement. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence,
this section shall apply to the current and prior service pension for
any other state safety member based on service to which it would
have applied had the member, on July 1, 1971, been in employment
described in Section 20403 or 20404.
   (b) Upon retirement for service prior to attaining the age of 55
years, the percentage of final compensation payable for each year of
credited service that is subject to this section shall be the product
of 2 percent multiplied by the factor set forth in the following
table for his or her actual age at retirement:

                                    The percent for
                                     each year of
                                       credited
                                        service
  If the retirement age occurs at:        is:
  50 .............................       0.713
  50 1/4..........................       0.725
  50 1/2..........................       0.737
  50 3/4..........................       0.749
  51 .............................       0.761
  51 1/4..........................       0.775
  51 1/2..........................       0.788
  51 3/4..........................       0.801
  52 .............................       0.814

  54 3/4..........................       0.983

   (c) In no event shall the total pension for all service under this
section exceed an amount that, when added to the service retirement
annuity related to that service, equals 75 percent of final
compensation. For state members who retire on or after January 1,
1995, and with respect to service for all state employers under this
section, the benefit shall not exceed 80 percent of final
compensation. For local members who retire on or after January 1,
2000, the benefit shall not exceed 85 percent of final compensation.
If the pension relates to service to more than one employer and would
otherwise exceed that maximum, the pension payable with respect to
each employer shall be reduced in the same proportion as the
allowance based on service to that employer bears to the total
allowance computed as though there were no limit, so that the total
of those pensions shall equal the maximum. Where a state or local
member retiring on or after January 1, 1995, has service under this
section with both state and local agency employers, the higher
maximum shall apply and the additional benefit shall be funded by
increasing the member's pension payable with respect to the employer

to this section, the right to provide for the adjustment of
industrial disability retirement allowances because of earnings of a
retired person and modification of the conditions and qualifications
required for retirement for disability as it may find appropriate

benefits under this section.
   (f) The percentage of final compensation provided in this section
shall be reduced by one-third as applied to that part of the member's
final compensation that does not exceed four hundred dollars ($400)
per month for service after the effective date of coverage of a
member under the federal system. This subdivision shall not apply to
a member who retires after the date upon which coverage under the
federal system of persons in his or her employment terminates. It
shall not apply to a local safety member employed by a contracting
agency electing to be subject to this section after March 7, 1973,
unless the agency elects to be subject to this paragraph by amendment
to its contract or by appropriate provision of a contract entered
into after this provision is effective and as to any member, the
reduction in the percentage of final compensation shall apply to all
local safety service to the agency, if any of the local safety
service has been included in the federal system.

rendered for the California State University, this section shall
apply to state safety members who are not employed by the state on or

employees until the agency elects to be subject to it by amendment to
its contract made in the manner prescribed for approval of contracts
or in the case of a new contract, by express provision of the
contract. The operative date of this section with respect to a local
safety member shall be the effective date of the amendment to his or
her employer's contract electing to be subject to this section.
   (i) (1) Notwithstanding Section 3517.8 or any provision of an
expired memorandum of understanding, this section shall also apply to
a state safety member who is employed by the state or the California
State University for the first time and becomes a state safety

related state safety members in managerial, supervisory, or
confidential positions and officers or employees of the executive
branch of state government who are not members of the civil service,
the Director of the Department of Personnel Administration may
exercise his or her discretion whether to approve their status in
writing to the board.
   (2) If this subdivision is in conflict with a memorandum of
understanding that is current and in effect on January 15, 2011, the
memorandum of understanding shall be controlling while it remains in
effect. Upon expiration of the memorandum of understanding that is in
effect and current on January 15, 2011, this section shall be
controlling and may not be superseded by a subsequent memorandum of
understanding.
   (j) This section does not apply to:

employment on or after January 15, 2011, and who were not previously
subject to this section.

normal contributions of the state safety member at the date of his or
her retirement to equal the fraction of one-fiftieth of his or her
final compensation set forth opposite his or her age at retirement
taken to the preceding completed quarter year, in the following
table, multiplied by the number of years of state safety service
subject to this section with which he or she is credited at

safety member shall be the effective date of the amendment to the
employer's contract electing to be subject to this section. However,
this section shall not apply to any local safety member in the employ
of an employer not subject to this section on January 1, 2000.



21371.  The combined current and prior service pensions, disability
retirement allowance or continued allowance with respect to a retired
member whose effective date of retirement was prior to April 1,
1973, and who was a forestry, warden, or law enforcement member on
March 31, 1973, is his or her current service pension, prior service
pension, or combined prior and current service pension, disability
retirement allowance or continued allowance as it was under this part
as it read and applied to him or her on March 31, 1973, subject to
adjustment under Article 3 (commencing with Section 21310).



21372.  The combined current and prior service pensions of a state
safety member who on March 31, 1973, was a forestry member not
subject to former Section 21252.3, as added by Chapter 131 of the
Statutes of 1970, shall be determined in accordance with this part as
it read and applied to him or her on March 31, 1973, and the member
shall not become subject to Section 21369 or 21369.1 unless he or she
thereafter accepts appointment to a position in another state
department in which he or she is a state safety member, and in that
event he or she shall be subject to Section 21369 or 21369.1, as
applicable, with respect to all of his or her state safety service.




21373.  The combined current and prior service pensions for a state
safety member who on March 31, 1973, was a law enforcement member not
subject to Section 21369, shall be determined in accordance with
this part as it read and applied to him or her on March 31, 1973,
rather than Section 21369 if under those provisions he or she is
entitled to a retirement allowance exceeding 2 percent of final
compensation per year of his or her law enforcement service, unless
he or she elects in writing to be subject to Section 21369 and the
election is filed in the office of the board within 30 calendar days
following April 1, 1973. Any member who does not so elect and
thereafter accepts appointment to a position in another state
department in which he or she is a state safety member shall become
subject, upon that acceptance, to Section 21369 or 21369.1, as
applicable, with respect to all of his or her state safety service.



21374.  The combined current and prior service pensions for a state
safety member who on March 31, 1973, was a warden member shall be
determined in accordance with this part as it read and applied to him
or her on March 31, 1973, if on March 31, 1973, he or she was
either: (a) in compensated employment in which he or she was a warden
member, or (b) on leave of absence from that employment and who
either: (1) has attained the age of 55 years, or (2), if on that date
he or she was subject to former Section 21252.2, as amended by
Chapter 752 of the Statutes of 1969, he or she entered warden service
after attaining the age of 35 years, unless he or she elects in
writing to be subject to Section 21369 and the election is filed in
the office of the board within 30 calendar days following April 1,
1973.
   Any member who thereafter accepts an appointment to a position in
another state department in which he or she is a state safety member
shall become subject to Section 21369 or 21369.1, as applicable, with
respect to all of his or her state safety service.



21375.  Notwithstanding any other provision of law, and with respect
only to an election by a contracting agency to amend its contract to
become subject to Section 21369, 21370, or 21363, instead of Section
21366, the following shall apply:
   (a) Members who are on the amending agency's active payroll on the
effective date of the contract amendment shall elect in writing,
within 90 days after the notification by the board of the amendment,
to be subject to Section 21363, 21366, or 21370, as applicable, or
Section 21369 with respect to all safety service performed for the
contracting agency.
   (b) Members on the effective date who are former employees of the
amending agency and whose service for the amending agency was subject
to Section 21366 or Section 21369, shall retain their rights under
the formula in effect at the time their service was credited.
   (c) Former members who upon reentry into state service elect to
redeposit contributions, shall be subject to Section 21363, 21369, or
21370, as applicable, with respect to all safety service performed
for the amending agency prior to the effective date of the contract
amendment.
   (d) Notwithstanding Section 21357, a former member who reinstates
to the amending agency as a local safety member shall elect within 90
days of the reinstatement whether to be subject to Section 21363,
21369, or 21370, as applicable, or Section 21366 with respect to all
service with that contracting agency prior to the effective date of
the contract amendment. The election shall be effective only if the
reinstated member remains in the employment for at least one year
subsequent to reinstatement.



21376.  Whenever a contracting agency amends its contract to become
subject to Section 21370 instead of Section 21369, a member who
previously elected, pursuant to Section 21375, to remain subject to
Section 21366, or a member who entered employment under Section 21366
after attaining age 30 and continued to be subject to that section,
shall elect in writing within 90 days of notification by the board
whether to be subject to Section 21366 or Section 21370.



21380.  If a state safety member retires for service before
attaining age 55, or, in the case of the member who continues subject
to the current and prior service pension provision for retirement of
warden and forestry members at age 60, his or her prior and current
service pensions shall be reduced to that amount that the value of
the pensions as deferred to age 55, or age 60, respectively, will
purchase at the actual age of retirement on the basis of the
mortality tables and actuarial interest rate in effect on December 1,
1970, under this system with respect to those members.



21381.  (a) The retirement allowance referred to in this section
excludes that portion of a member's service retirement annuity that
was purchased by his or her accumulated additional contributions.
   (b) If a member entitled to credit for prior service retires after
attaining the compulsory age for service retirement applicable to
him or her, or if there is no compulsory age for service retirement
applicable to the member and the member attains age 70, or if a
member is entitled to be credited with 20 years of continuous state
service and retires after attaining age 60, and his or her retirement
allowance is less than one thousand two hundred dollars ($1,200) per
year and less than his or her final compensation, his or her prior
or current service pension, as the case may be, shall be increased so
as to cause his or her total retirement allowance from this system,
and from the retiring annuities system of the university, if any, to
amount to one thousand two hundred dollars ($1,200) per year, or his
or her final compensation, whichever is less.
   If a member to whom this section applies is employed by more than
one employer, his or her aggregate retirement allowances shall be
taken into account irrespective of the employer.



21383.  The prior service pensions for state members are derived
from contributions of the state.



21384.  The prior service pension for local members is a pension
derived from the contributions of the employing contracting agency if
and as provided for in the contract between the board and the
contracting agency.


21385.  The prior service pension of a member reinstated from
service retirement, upon his or her subsequent service retirement,
shall be in the same amount as his or her prior service pension prior
to his or her reinstatement, adjusted for any service on which the
pension was based that was included in coverage of the federal system
during reinstatement according to the formula applicable to the
service in employment from which he or she was retired, and further
adjusted according to any change in the provisions governing the
calculation of the pensions, using the formula applied in the first
adjustment, made after the reinstatement and applicable to pensions
being paid at the date of the change if the subsequent retirement
occurs before he or she renders after his or her reinstatement at
least one year of state service credited under this system.
Otherwise, the prior service pension calculated on the basis of an
age, taken to the preceding completed quarter year but not less than
the minimum retirement age applicable to him or her at his or her
last retirement, and determined by deducting from his or her age at
his or her subsequent retirement, the aggregate time during which he
or she was under retirement. For such a member reinstated from
nonindustrial disability retirement, the prior service pension upon
his or her service retirement after attaining an age one year less
than the minimum age at which he or she could have retired without an
actuarial discount because of age in the employment from which he or
she was last retired, or upon his or her disability retirement after
attaining the minimum age, and subsequent to reinstatement, shall be
calculated in the manners described in the preceding sentence, but
the age determined upon subsequent retirement after rendering at
least one year of state service, shall not be taken at less than one
year less than the minimum age if the subsequent retirement is for
service, or the minimum age if the retirement is for disability.
   The prior service pension otherwise payable under this section to
a member whose allowance prior to reinstatement was paid pursuant to
his or her election under Section 21461 shall be reduced by the
actuarial equivalent, on the date of retirement subsequent to
reinstatement, of the amount, if any (converted as below), by which:
   (a) The total amount paid in the period during which a temporary
annuity was included in the payments, the amount being reduced by the
total amount that would have been payable during the period had the
election not been made; exceeds
   (b) The excess of the total amount that would have been payable,
had the election not been made, during the time subsequent to the
period and prior to reinstatement over the total amount actually paid
during that time.
   The amount determined by the above formula shall be converted to
an amount equaling the actuarial equivalent on the date of
reinstatement. The latter amount shall be the basis of the actuarial
equivalent, on the date of retirement subsequent to reinstatement.
   Actuarial equivalents required by this section shall be based on
the interest rate and mortality tables in use by this system on the
date of retirement subsequent to reinstatement.
   Notwithstanding this section, or any other provision of this part,
the prior service pension payable to any member subject to this
section who rendered one year or more of state service credited under
this system after reinstatement on retirement for service subsequent
to reinstatement from service retirement for any credited service
for which a prior service pension was paid prior to reinstatement
shall not be less than the prior service pension that would be
payable on the date of the subsequent retirement had the member not
been reinstated, adjusted, however, by any reduction under this
section because of an election under Section 21461 and, for any
service so credited that was included in coverage of the federal
system during reinstatement, according to the formula applicable to
the service in employment from which he or she was retired.



21390.  Notwithstanding Sections 21362, 21362.2, 21363, 21363.1,
21369, 21370, and 21389, for local safety members who retire on or
after January 1, 2002, and with respect to all local safety service
rendered to a contracting agency that is subject to any of those
sections, the benefit limit shall be 90 percent of final
compensation.
