A former member may exercise this right by redepositing in the retirement fund of the county or district he or she left, the amount of accumulated contributions and interest that he or she withdrew from that retirement fund plus regular interest thereon from the date of separation.

The deferred retirement allowance of the member shall be determined in accordance with the provisions of this chapter applicable to a member retiring directly from county employment on the date of his or her retirement.

(c)A former member who redeposits under this section shall be entitled to a reduced age at entry, commencing with contributions payable the first day of the month following the date the association receives notice of the redeposit, only to the extent provided in Section 31833.
