The member contributions to the system as permitted under this Section shall be made ratably over a period of time equaling the period the member was in the U.S. armed services, but in no event shall such period exceed five years.

The amount of the member's contribution and the employer's contribution shall be determined by the system's actuary. A member who does not return to employment with his employer shall not be affected by this provision.
