Before the date that any retirement allowance becomes effective for Kellie Martin, she shall pay into the annuity savings fund of the teachers’ retirement system in 1 sum or installments, upon such terms and conditions as the teachers’ retirement board may prescribe, an amount equal to that which would have been withheld as regular deductions from her regular compensation for such previous service, plus buyback interest, as defined in section 1 of said chapter 32.
