	(b)	the member was under 60 years of age on the date of the member’s discontinuance;
a further benefit is payable in accordance with this section.
	(2)	The further benefit under subsection (1) is calculated by dividing the superannuation benefit payable to the member under section 15 by the number of days in the member’s relevant period of service and then multiplying the quotient by the number of days from the date of the member’s discontinuance until the date on which the member would attain the age of 60 years.
