Article, plus (ii) interest thereon at the actuarially assumed
rate, compounded annually, from the date of service to the

    No later than 6 months after the effective date of this

credits and creditable service accumulated in this Fund for

actuarially assumed rate of interest to the date of payment.
Such payment must be made within 90 days after notification by
