CERTIFICATION — To be signed by member and witnessed by a notary public
I have completed an ELECTION TO TRANSFER MEMBERSHIP FROM TCRS TO THE OPTIONAL RETIREMENT
PROGRAM and hereby also make application for the transfer of my accumulated contributions on deposit with the
Tennessee Consolidated Retirement System to the Optional Retirement Program as authorized by Tennessee Code
Annotated, Section 8-35-409.
I understand that this transfer is considered a total withdrawal of accumulated contributions and service credit and
shall terminate my membership in the Tennessee Consolidated Retirement System in accordance with the provisions
of Tennessee Code Annotated, Section 8-35-104. I further understand that this action constitutes a waiver of all rights
in the retirement system and that contributions so transferred may not be redeposited with the Tennessee Consoli-
dated Retirement System.
I am aware that if I have attained vested rights in TCRS and DO NOT transfer my contributions, I will be entitled to
elect to receive a monthly benefit from TCRS at retirement age based on my service and salary through the date of my
transfer of membership to the Optional Retirement Program. By transferring my contributions, I am forfeiting all
rights to such benefit.
I take this action with full knowledge and understanding of the foregoing and certify that this election is being
made at least thirty (30) days prior to the effective date.
