Sec. 8.01. DEFERRED VESTED PENSION. (a) A member is eligible for a deferred vested pension if the member's employment is terminated, for reasons other than death or retirement under a normal, early, special early, extra-special early, or disability pension, on or after the completion of five or more years of service.
(b) Payment of a deferred vested pension begins as of the first day of the month following the member's 65th birthday, if the member is then living. If the member has completed 10 years of service, the member may request the deferred vested pension to begin as of the first day of the month following the member's 55th birthday or as of the first day of any subsequent month that precedes the member's 65th birthday.
(c) If payment of a deferred vested pension begins before the member's 65th birthday, the amount shall be reduced by 1/180th for each of the first 60 months and 1/360th for each of the next 60 months by which the starting date of the pension payment precedes the member's 65th birthday. The provisions of this section are subject to change as provided by Section 11.01 of this Act.
