Provides that, during the period of the DROP, the System shall credit to a notional account on behalf of the DROP member an amount equal to the monthly amount of retirement annuity the DROP member would otherwise be eligible to receive had the DROP member retired on the date of the election. Provides that an eligible member may elect to participate in the DROP for a period not to exceed 5 years from the date of election. Requires a DROP member to terminate employment with the employer upon expiration of their participation in the DROP. Sets forth other provisions concerning interest on the account; termination of the DROP; contributions; administrative costs; transfer of administrative responsibility to the State Treasurer; and the tax-qualified status of the System.
