If the political subdivision or public organization is in default at the end of the extension, participation in the plan is terminated, and it shall be sent notice of termination.(b) All employees of the terminating employer whose contributions have not been refunded, regardless of their employment status at the date of termination, shall be considered fully vested in their adjusted accrued retirement benefits as of the date of termination of the employer.(c)[Repealed, Sec. 116(a) ch 20 SLA 2007].(d) Each employee of a terminating employer must, within 60 days of the employer's termination of participation, inform the administrator, in writing, whether the employee wishes to obtain a refund or a vested benefit.(e) Each employee who elects to obtain a refund shall receive a refund of the balance, determined as of the date of the employer's termination of participation, of the employee contribution account. The vesting in accrued benefits for each employee who elects to receive a refund is voided upon receipt of the refund and corresponding credited service may not be reinstated under AS 39.35.095 - 39.35.680.

Employees may be credited under AS 39.35.700 - 39.35.990 only with service subsequent to the date of return.
