(a) General rule.--In the event that a member terminates State service or a multiple service member who is an active member of the Public School Employees' Retirement System terminates school service before the agreed upon payments for credit for previous State service, USERRA leave, creditable nonstate service, social security integration, full coverage membership or return of benefits on account of returning to State service or entering school service and electing multiple service have been completed, the member or multiple service member who is an active member of the Public School Employees' Retirement System shall have the right to pay within 30 days of termination of State service or school service the balance due, including interest, in a lump sum and the annuity shall be calculated including full credit for the previous State service, creditable nonstate service, social security integration, or full coverage membership. In the event a member does not pay the balance due within 30 days of termination of State service or in the event a member dies in State service or within 30 days of termination of State service or in the case of a multiple service member who is an active member of the Public School Employees' Retirement System does not pay the balance due within 30 days of termination of school service or dies in school service or within 30 days of termination of school service and before the agreed upon payments have been completed, the present value of the benefit otherwise payable shall be reduced by the balance due, including interest, and the benefit payable shall be calculated as the actuarial equivalent of such reduced present value.

(b) Disallowed contributions.--No payments for service or coverage shall be allowed for which the required contributions would cause a violation of the limitation related to contributions applicable to governmental plans contained in IRC § 415. In the event that any service credit or coverage based on such disallowed contributions is granted after the effective date of this subsection, then such service credit or coverage shall be canceled and benefits calculated without regard to such service, coverage or contributions and any member contributions in excess of the limitations and statutory interest credited on those contributions shall be refunded to the member by the board.
