. (a) A participant who is employed to perform creditable service subject to coverage by the Cash Balance Benefit Program while receiving an annuity under the program may voluntarily terminate the annuity upon employment and make contributions to the program based on salary paid by the employer for the employment, provided the participant has attained normal retirement age and has been receiving a retirement annuity for at least one year. The participant shall continue to be subject to Section 26808.
  (b) The participant shall request in writing within 60 days of employment that the annuity be terminated. Termination of the participant's annuity shall become effective on the first day of the month following the month in which verification of the participant's employment is received by the system from the participant's employer.
  (c) Upon voluntary termination of the annuity, the employee and employer account of the participant shall be credited with respective balances that reflect the actuarial equivalent of the participant's retirement benefit as of the date the participant terminates the annuity and the Annuitant Reserve shall be reduced by the amount of the credits.
  (d) The portion of the annuity derived from the amounts credited to the employee account and employer account, as of the date the participant terminates the annuity, shall be calculated using the actuarial assumptions in effect on the initial retirement date using the age of the participant and, if the participant elected a joint and survivor option the age of the beneficiary on the current retirement date.
  (e) Upon election of a subsequent annuity, the credits in the participant's employee account and employer account shall be transferred to the Annuitant Reserve.
