Sec. 9.06. AMOUNT OF DISABILITY PENSION. Subject to Section 11.01 of this Act, a member who meets the requirements for a disability pension is entitled to receive a monthly amount determined as follows:

(1) the pension payable until age 65 equals 60 percent of the member's monthly rate of pay at the time of the disability minus any primary social security benefit actually paid to the member and the amount of other payments the member is entitled to receive from workers' compensation or any other disability plan, except that a member's disability pension under this Act may not exceed $1,500 per month; and

(2) the pension payable beginning at age 65 is an amount computed in the same manner as for a normal retirement pension considering the member's compensation and service as if:

(A) the member had continued employment with the municipality until the member's 65th birthday; and

(B) the member's rate of pay had remained constant from the time of disability until the member's 65th birthday.
