ELECTING AN OPTION

The law requires that you file your option election within 60 days of the date NYCERS mails a Retirement Options letter to you. The option you elect is important to both you and your beneficiary. Be sure you understand each option, and elect the one that best fulfills your needs. Double check that you have marked the proper box for the option that you wish to elect, because you are selecting how your pension will be paid. Please do not make any alterations to this form, as that will render it invalid. We require proof of date of birth for your designated beneficiary, as well as a marriage certificate, if your beneficiary is a married woman. When you have completed this form, sign it, have it notarized, and mail it to NYCERS, 335 Adams Street, Suite 2300, Brooklyn, NY 11201-3724. NYCERS will acknowledge receipt of the option you have selected. If you wish to file this option in person, visit our Customer

Service Center on the Mezzanine level of 340 Jay Street in downtown Brooklyn.

Please indicate your election by marking one of the following:

Maximum

Option 2

Joint-and-

Survivor 100%

I elect to receive the maximum lifetime retirement allowance payable to me. I understand that all payments cease upon my death, and that under this option I cannot elect a beneficiary.

I elect to receive a reduced lifetime retirement allowance. If I die before my beneficiary, the same monthly amount will continue to be paid to him or her for life. If my beneficiary predeceases me, all payments will cease upon my death. I understand that I cannot change my beneficiary once this option election is in force. If you should die after the effective date of your retirement but before you receive your first full retirement payment, a benefit (the balance of your Total Reserve for Tier 1; the balance of your Annuity Reserve for Tier 2) under Option 1 will be paid to your beneficiary. Details on Option 1 are contained on a separate election form within your Options packet. If you would prefer that your beneficiary receive payment under Option 2 instead, place your initials in this box.

Option 3 Joint-and Survivor 50%

I elect to receive a reduced lifetime retirement allowance. If I die before my beneficiary, one-half

(50%) of my retirement allowance will continue to be paid to him or her for life. If my beneficiary predeceases me, all payments will cease upon my death. I understand that I cannot change my beneficiary once this option is in force. If you should die after the effective date of your retirement but before you receive your first full retirement payment, a benefit (the balance of your Total Reserve for Tier 1; the balance of your Annuity Reserve for Tier 2) under Option 1 will be paid to your beneficiary. Details on Option 1 are contained on a separate election form within your Options packet. If you would prefer that your beneficiary receive payment under Option 3 instead, place your initials in this box.
