The System is administered by a board of eightmembers, composed of three members of the System, an official of a bank, an official of a life insurance company, the Director of Finance, a member of the State Personnel Board, and an official of the University of California. 2. Retirement for service is optional upon attainment of age 55 by lo- cal firemen and local policemen, and age 60 or age 55 at the election of the Public Agency, by other employees, and completion of twenty years of service for the Public Agency, and is compulsory at age 65 for local firemen and local policemen, and at age 70 for other employees. 3. The monthly retirement allowance payable upon retirement for service is dependent upon such factors as age, sex, salary and years of ser, vice. For local firemen and local policemen, retiring at age 55 in paragraph 2, or at a higher age with 20 years of service, the month- ly allowance is approximately one -half the average monthly salary during the five years immediately preceding retirement, unless the Public Agency elects to provide prior service benefits at less than the full amount. For other Agency employees, the monthly allowance, upon retirement at age 65 if the Agency elects 60 as the lowest op- tional service retirement age, is approximately 1 /70th of the aver- age monthly salary during the five years immediately preceding retirement, for each year of service after the effective date of participation, plus approximately 1 /70th, or less as may be pro- vided in said contract by the Public Agency for its employees, of "final compensation" or of the average monthly salary during the three years immediately preceding the effective date of partici- pation, for each year of service prior to that date. Upon retire- ment at age 60, if the agency elects 55 as the lowest optional service retirement age, the fraction is approximately 1 /60th instead of 1 /70th. • F 122d - 1 (Guar. % & Comp.) 10 -50 0 41 4.
