B. Any retired Justice or judge who was a member of the Oklahoma Judicial Retirement System on January 14, 1969, and who died while in active service before June 22, 1974, or died in retirement status between January 14, 1969, and the effective date of this act shall be considered to have brought his spouse under the survivor benefit provisions of the Oklahoma Judicial Retirement System. The surviving spouse of such Justice or judge, when otherwise eligible, shall be entitled, from and after the effective date of this act, to survivor benefits upon payment to the Oklahoma Judicial Retirement System of that amount of additional contributions which the deceased Justice or judge would have been required to make had the law permitted him to elect on January 13, 1969, to bring his spouse under the survivor benefit provisions of the Judicial Retirement System. If the contributions made to the System by such deceased Justice or judge while alive were refunded to his surviving spouse upon his death, the surviving spouse must also repay the amount thereof to the System when applying for benefits under the provisions hereof.
