Contributions by the employee to whom this section applies, and city contributions for age and service annuity and widow's annuity, shall be made as herein provided. Any person employed by an employer or retirement board, in which this Article was in force prior to January 1, 1950, who (1) was not a participant in this fund on January 1, 1950, (2) attained age 65 before July 1, 1950 and (3) fails to qualify as an employee by virtue of the 12 months' service requirement by July 1, 1950, shall not be credited for any annuity purposes under this Article; nor shall any other person so employed, who attains age 65 or more subsequent to July 1, 1950, and before qualifying as an employee, be credited for any annuity purposes under this Article. Such person shall not be considered an employee. (Source: P.A. 81-1536.)
