5. This plan applies of right to employees not contributing to any retirement plan on June 30 1973, and to employees appointed or engaged after that date.
It also applies to employees whose supplemental pension plan was terminated after 30 June 1973 by reason of an amendment brought to such supplemental pension plan. In such case, the terms and conditions enacted in sections 6 and 9 of this act apply as if the employees had elected to participate in this plan.
An employee who, before 30 June 1973, left an employment contemplated by the Act respecting the Civil Service Superannuation Plan or the Act respecting the Teachers Pension Plan without having obtained the reimbursement of his contributions and who thereafter holds an employment to which the retirement plan established by this act applies may be credited with service accumulated under such plans in the manner provided for in section 90 as if he had elected to participate in this plan in accordance with section 10.
However, an employee contributing to a retirement plan on June 30 1973 who subsequently changes his employment for another employment to which the same plan applies, shall continue to contribute to such retirement plan provided that at the time of such change of employments, interruption of service is not for a period longer than 180 days and provided that he has not obtained a reimbursement of his contributions.
An employee contributing to a retirement plan on June 30 1973 who subsequently changes his employment for another employment to which such retirement plan does not apply but to which the retirement plan established by this act applies, may be credited with service accumulated under such plan, in the manner provided for in section 90 or 92, as if he had elected to participate in this plan.
