retirement benefit equals (1) the Coverture Fraction multiplied by
(2) the Member's retirement benefit as of Member's effective date
of retirement.
(b) The Coverture Fraction is a fraction with a value
less than or equal to one. The numerator shall equal the amount of
Member's credited service for the period from April 27, 1974 to
March 1, 1997. The denominator shall equal the amount of Member's
service for the period from the date Member became a participant in
the SERS, to the date the Member ended participation in the SERS.
(c) Fifty percent (50%) of the marital property component
of the Member's retirement benefit, credited with the statutory
rate of interest, is to be allocated to Alternate Payee for the
purpose of equitable distribution of this marital asset.
(d) If the Member elects to receive all or a portion of
his accumulated deductions, the Alternate Payee is entitled to a
portion of such deductions. The portion the Alternate payee is
entitled to is determined by dividing the amount of the accumulated
deductions the member elects to receive by the total amount of her
accumulated deductions and multiplying this ratio by 50% of the
Member's accumulated deductions on March 1, 1997, accumulated with
interest at the rate of 4% per year compounded annually since March
1, 1997. The Alternate payee is also entitled to 50% of the
balance of the marital component of Member's retirement benefit,
such balance is the marital component of Member's retirement
benefit as defined in paragraph 7(a) less any refund of accumulated
deductions to which the Alternate Payee is entitled under this
paragraph 9.
8. Member's retirement benefit is defined as all monies paid
to or on behalf of Member of SERS, including any lump sum
withdrawals or scheduled or ad hoc increases, but eXCluding the
disability portion of any disability annuities paid to Member by
SERS or any deferred compensation benefits paid to Member by SERS.
Equitable distribution of the marital property component of
Member's retirement benefit, as set forth in paragraph Seven (7)

9. Member hereby nominates Alternate Payee as an irrevocable
beneficiary to the extent of the Alternate payee's equitable
distribution portion of the Member's retirement benefit for any
dea th benef i ts payable by SERS. This nomination shall become
effective upon approval by the Secretary of the Retirement Board,
or his authorized representative of any Domestic Relations Order
incorporating this StipUlation and Agreement. The balance of any
death benefit remaining after the allocation of the Alternate
Payee's equitable distribution portion ("Balance") shall be paid to
the beneficiaries named by the Member on the last Nomination of
Beneficiaries Form filed with the Retirement Board prior to
Member's death,
f.
,
,
.
(a.) If the last Nomination of Beneficiaries Form filed
by the Member prior to Member's death (a) predates any approved
Domestic Relations Order incorporating this Stipulation and
Agreement, and (b) names Alternate Payee as a Beneficiary, then (1)
the terms of the Domestic Relations Order shall alone govern
Alternate Payee's share of any death benefit, and (2) for purposes
of paying the Balance via the last Nomination of Beneficiaries Form
filed with the Retirement Board prior to Member's death, Alternate
Payee shall be treated as if the Alternate Payee predeceased
Member. No portion of the Balance shall be payable to the Alternate
Payee's estate.

(b.) In addition, Member shall execute and deliver to the
Alternate Payee an authorization, in a form acceptable to SERS,
which will authorize SERS to release to the Alternate Payee all
relevant information concerning Member's retirement account.
Alternate Payee shall deliver the authorization to SERS which will
allow the Alternate Payee to check that she has been and continues
to be properly nominated under this paragraph.
10. The type and amount of Member's retirement benefit
payable under the terms of this Stipulation and Agreement after its
entry as a Domestic Relations Order acceptable to SERS is dependent

and equitable distribution percent annuity, as described in
paragraph 7, payable during the lifetime of the Member with an
equitable distribution percent, as described in paragraph 7, of
such annuity payable thereafter to his survivor annuitant, if
living at his death, as set for in 71 Pa.C.S. Section 5705(a) (4),
or any succeeding statute.
Special Option 4. shall only govern and be applicable to the
Alternate Payee's portion of the Member's retirement funds. The
Member retains the ability to elect any option with respect to the
portion of his retirement which belongs to him.
The Member shall designate the Alternate Payee as his survivor
annuitant under this Special Option 4. The intent of the Special
Option 4 selection is to maintain levelized payments to the
Alternate Payee for her life in the event of the Member's death
after retirement. The Alternate Payee shall receive her equitable
distribution percentage of the annuity which is payable to the
Member during his lifetime, so that she shall receive a percentage
of the Member's check during this lifetime and the same amount, all
other things being equal, if he predeceases her after retirement.
The Alternate Payee acknowledges if the Alternate Payee predeceases
the Member after retirement then under this Special Option 4
selection benefits are payable to the Alternate Payee's estate.

option offered by SERS. SERS shall issue individual tax forms to
Member and Alternate Payee for amounts paid to each.

receipt of any payments payable to her from SERS under the terms of
this Stipulation and Agreement. any death benefit or retirement
benefit payable to Alternate Payee by SERS shall be paid to
Alternate Payee's Estate to the extent of Alternate Payee's
equitable distribution interest in Member's retirement benefit as
set forth in Paragraphs Seven (7) through Nine (9),
13. In no event shall Alternate Payee have greater benefits
or rights other than those which are available to Member.
Alternate Payee is not entitled to any benefit not otherwise
provided by SERS. The Alternate Payee is only entitled to the
specific benefits offered by SERS as provided in this Stipulation
and Agreement. All other rights. privileges and options offered by
SERS not granted to Alternate Payee are preserved for Member.
14. It is specifically intended and agreed by the parties
hereto that this Stipulation and Agreement:
(a) Does not require SERS to provide any type or form of
benefit. or any option not otherwise provided under the Retirement
Code;
(b) Does not require SERS to provide increased benefits
(determined on the basis of actuarial value) unless increased
benefits are paid to Member based upon cost of living or increases
based on other than actuarial values.
15. The parties intend and agree that the terms of this
StipUlation and Agreement shall be approved, adopted and entered as
a Domestic Relations Order.
16. The Court of Common Pleas of Cumberland County,
Pennsylvania, shall retain juriSdiction to amend any Domestic
Relations Order based on this StipUlation and Agreement. but only
for the purpose of establishing it or maintaining it as a Domestic
Relations Order; provided, however, that no such amendment shall
require SERS to provide any type or form of benefit. or any option
not otherwise provided by SERS. and further provided that no such
amendment or right of the Court to so amend will invalidate any
existing Order.
17. Upon its entry as a Domestic Relations Order. a certified

(2) the Member's retirement benefit as of March 1, 1997, the date
of the Member and Alternate Payee's separation.
(b) The Coverture Fraction is a fraction with a value
less than or equal to one. The numerator shall equal the amount of
Member's credited service for the period from April 27, 1974 to
March 1, 1997. The denominator shall equal the amount of Member's

asset.
(d) If the Member elects to receive all or a portion of

portion of such deductions, The portion the Alternate payee is
entitled to is determined by dividing the amount of the accumulated
deductions the member elects to receive by the total amount of his

Member's accumulated deductions on March 1, 1997, accumulated with
interest at the rate of 4% per year compounded annually since March

Paragraph 9.
B. Member's retirement benefit is defined as all monies paid
to or on behalf of Member of SERS, including any lump sum
withdrawals or scheduled or ad hoc increases, but excluding the
disability portion of any disability annuities paid to Member by
SERS or any deferred compensation benefits paid to Member by SERS.
Equitable distribution of the marital property component of

the terms of the Domestic Relations Order shall alone govern
Alternate Payee's share of any death benefit, and (2) for purposes
of paying the Balance via the last Nomination of Beneficiaries Form
filed with the Retirement Board prior to Member's death, Alternate
Payee shall be treated as if the Alternate Payee predeceased

allow the Alternate Payee to check that she has been and continues
to be properly nominated under this paragraph,

Alternate Payee for her life in the event of the Member's death
after retirement. The Alternate Payee shall receive her equitable
distribution percentage of the annui ty which is payable to the
Member during his lifetime, so that she shall receive a percentage
of the Member's check during this lifetime and the same amount, all

or rights other than those which are available to Member.

benefit, or any option not otherwise provided under the Retirement
