1. If service is 20 or more years, the entire sum credited for age and service annuity, widow’s annuity, and, if a present employee, prior service annuity and widow’s prior service annuity; or
2. If service is 10 or more but less than 20 years, the sum accumulated to his credit for age and service annuity, widow’s annuity, and, if a present employee, prior service annuity from employee contributions, plus 1/10 of the sum credited for age and service annuity, widow’s annuity, and, for a present employee, prior service annuity and widow’s prior service annuity, from contributions by the city, for each year of service after the first 10 years.
The annuity shall be computed as of the widow’s age at the date of the employee’s death.
