Whenever a member who has less than ten years of service credit has been out of service for five years without having applied for a refund of contributions, the retirement system shall transmit to him by certified mail, return receipt requested, at his last known address, a notification of his rights with respect to the contributions. The notification shall include information regarding his rights to the refund of contributions, his rights to leave the contributions in the system if he plans to reenter service, his rights to use the contributions for reciprocity or transfer of service credit if he becomes a member of another system, and any rights he may have to a retirement allowance pursuant to R.S. 11:1142.
