(5)  for the purpose of taking a pre-retirement leave to replace the long-term salary insurance benefit:

An officer who receives a benefit from the mandatory basic long-term salary insurance plan may elect to take a pre-retirement leave instead and in place in this benefit, provided that this pre-retirement does not exceed the date of the end of the benefit from this plan which would otherwise have been applicable to him; in such case, the sick leave fund may be used in full, at the rate of 1 day of pre-retirement for each day in the fund.
