A. A member who terminates his service before normal retirement date, other than by death or disability, shall, upon application filed with the Board, be entitled to be refunded from the fund an amount equal to the accumulated contributions the member has made to the fund, but excluding any interest or any amount contributed by the state. If such member has completed ten (10) years of credited service at the date of termination, the member may elect a vested benefit in lieu of receiving his accumulated contributions. If the member who has completed ten (10) or more years of credited service elects the vested benefit, the member shall be entitled to a monthly retirement annuity commencing on the member's normal retirement date to be determined as if the member's employment continued uninterrupted. The annual amount of such retirement annuity shall be equal to two and one-half percent (2 1/2%) of final average salary multiplied by the number of years of credited service. The death benefits provided for under Section 2- 306 of this title shall apply to any member retiring under the provisions of this subsection. B. A member who terminated service before the normal retirement date of such member and elected a vested benefit in lieu of receiving accumulated contributions may upon reemployment be allowed full credit toward retirement for all credited service accrued for the vested benefit. This subsection shall apply to employees of the Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation, the Oklahoma State Bureau of Narcotics and Dangerous Drugs Control, the Department of Public Safety and the Oklahoma Alcoholic Beverage Control Board whose benefits had vested in the Oklahoma Public Employees Retirement System prior to the establishment of the Oklahoma Law Enforcement Retirement System. Upon reemployment of said employee by an agency whose employees are now members of the Oklahoma Law Enforcement Retirement System, the Oklahoma Public Employees Retirement System shall transfer to the Oklahoma Law Enforcement Retirement System all funds contributed by the individual member being reemployed and all funds contributed by the state for such member.
