(a) To the extent required by Section 401(a) of Title 26 of the United States Code, if a member dies while performing qualified military services, the survivors of the member shall be entitled to any additional benefits, as determined under Section 401(a)(37) of Title 26 of the United States Code, that would have been provided under the system had the member resumed his or her prior employment with an employer that maintains the system and then terminated employment on account of death. Death of a member while performing qualified military service shall not be treated as a service-connected death or disability. Service for vesting shall be credited to a member affected by this section for the period of his or her qualified military service.
(b) “Additional benefits” under this section shall not include benefit accruals relating to the period of qualified military service.
(Added by Stats. 2011, Ch. 440, Sec. 16. (AB 1028) Effective January 1, 2012.)
