(1) The member's covered wages averaged for the highest five years of the member's regular service, except as otherwise provided in this paragraph. The highest five years of a member's covered wages shall be determined using calendar years. However, if a member's final quarter of a year of employment does not occur at the end of a calendar year, the system may determine the wages for the fifth year by computing the average quarter of all quarters from the member's highest calendar year of covered wages not being used in the selection of the four highest years and using the computed average quarter for each quarter in the fifth year in which no wages have been reported in combination with the final quarter or quarters of the member's service to create a full calendar year. However, the system shall not use the member's final quarter of wages if using that quarter would reduce the member's final average covered wage. If the five-year average covered wage of a member exceeds the highest maximum covered wages in effect for a calendar year during the member's period of service, the five-year average covered wage of the member shall be reduced to the highest maximum covered wages in effect during the member's period of service. Notwithstanding any other provision of this subparagraph to the contrary, a member's wages for the fifth year as computed under this subparagraph shall not exceed, by more than three percent, the member's highest actual calendar year of covered wages.

a."Three-year average covered wage" means a member's covered wages averaged for the highest three years of the member's service, except as otherwise provided in this subsection. The highest three years of a member's covered wages shall be determined using calendar years. However, if a member's final quarter of a year of employment does not occur at the end of a calendar year, the system may determine the wages for the third year by computing the average quarter of all quarters from the member's highest calendar year of covered wages not being used in the selection of the two highest years and using the computed average quarter for each quarter in the third year in which no wages have been reported in combination with the final quarter or quarters of the member's service to create a full year. However, the system shall not use the member's final quarter of wages if using that quarter would reduce the member's three-year average covered wage. If the three-year average covered wage of a member exceeds the highest maximum covered wages in effect for a calendar year during the member's period of service, the three-year average covered wage of the member shall be reduced to the highest maximum covered wages in effect during the member's period of service.
