Whenever a member who has less than ten years of service credit has been out of
service for five years without having applied for a refund of contributions, the retirement

address, a notification of his rights with respect to the contributions. The notification shall
include information regarding his rights to the refund of contributions, his rights to leave the
contributions in the system if he plans to reenter service, his rights to use the contributions
for reciprocity or transfer of service credit if he becomes a member of another system, and
any rights he may have to a retirement allowance pursuant to R.S. 11:1142. Upon a valid
