  • Annuity: A periodic (usually annual) payment of a fixed sum of money for either the life of the recipient or for a fixed number of years. A series of payments under a contract from an insurance company, a trust company, or an individual. Annuity payments are made at regular intervals over a period of more than one full year.
  • Liabilities: The aggregate of all debts and other legal obligations of a particular person or legal entity.

     When an employee whose annuity was fixed or granted re-enters service before age 65, an amount determined under the provisions governing re-entry into service shall be charged to this reserve and transferred to the city contribution reserve and the employee’s contribution reserve, respectively, for age and service annuity. Such amount shall be divided in said reserves in the same ratio as that in which the previous transfer from such reserve to this reserve was made.
     If the wife of the employee, when he re-enters service, is the same as when the widow’s annuity was fixed, an amount to be determined under the provisions governing re-entry into service shall be transferred from this reserve and credited for widow’s annuity in the city contribution reserve and the employee’s contribution reserve, respectively. Such credit shall be in the same ratio as that in which the previous transfer was made.
     If at the end of any year the balance of the annuity payment reserve exceeds the liabilities chargeable thereto by more than 15% of the liabilities, the excess shall be transferred to the investment and interest reserve, ordinary disability reserve, expense reserve, prior service annuity reserve, and city contribution reserve, in the order named, to remove any deficiency existing in any such reserves, provided that at the end of each year such amount as may be necessary for employees of the board for service rendered prior to July 1, 1935 shall be transferred to the city contribution reserve before any transfer to any of the other reserves shall be made.
