When a police officer transfers back to the Police and Firemen's Retirement System under the circumstances set forth in section 1 of this act, the police officer and the employing municipality shall be required to make such contributions, on the basis of rates established by the actuary of the Police and Firemen's Retirement System, which, when added to the funds transferred pursuant to section 1 of this act and any prior contributions made by or on behalf of the transferring police officer retained by the Police and Firemen's Retirement System, will obtain for the police officer the same credits, rights and benefits of membership in the Police and Firemen's Retirement System as would have accrued had the police officer continued to be a member of that system during his entire employment as a police officer.
