(1) Upon the written application of a member or of his employer any member may be retired by the board of trustees, not less than thirty nor more than ninety days next following the date of filing such application, on an accidental disability retirement allowance; provided, that the medical board, after a medical examination of such member, shall certify that the natural and proximate cause of such disability was an accident met in the actual performance of duty within two years preceding the date of such application and that such disability was not the result of the member's willful negligence and that such member is mentally or physically incapacitated for performance of his usual duty and of any other available duty in the Division of Alcoholic Beverage Control which his employer is willing to assign to him, and that such incapacity is likely to be permanent and to such an extent that such member should be retired. (2) Upon retirement for accidental disability, a member shall receive an accidental disability retirement allowance which shall consist of: (a) An annuity which shall be the actuarial equivalent of the member's aggregate contributions at retirement; and (b) A pension equal to one-half of the member's average final compensation. (3) Upon the receipt of proper proofs of the death of a member who has retired on an accidental disability retirement allowance, there shall be paid to such person, if living, as he shall have nominated by written designation duly executed and filed with the board of trustees, otherwise to the executor or administrator of the member's estate, the sum of five thousand dollars ($5,000.00).
