(3) In the case of a beneficiary of a deceased member of a superseded system, or the retirement system, in receipt of a monthly retirement allowance as the person designated under an election of an optional form of benefit, the increase in the retirement allowance to such beneficiary shall be determined as if the member had been living on the date of recomputation.
