e. When any future entrant who shall have attained an age of fifty or more but less than fifty-seven years while in the service and who shall have served ten or more years shall resign or be discharged from the service, the amount of age and service annuity to which he >>or she<< shall have a right from and after the date of [[such]] >>the<< resignation or discharge and the amount of widow's >>or widower’s<< annuity to which his [[wife]] >>or her spouse<< shall have a right from and after the date of his >>or her<< death shall be fixed, as of their respective ages at that time; provided, that if [[such wife]] >>the spouse<< shall be older than [[such]] >>the<< future entrant, >>his or<< her age for annuity purposes shall be assumed to be the same as [[his]] >>the city employed spouse<<.

 

f. When any future entrant who shall have resigned or been discharged from the service after [[such]] >>the<< future entrant shall have been in the service for a period of ten or more years and before he >>or she<< shall have attained an age of fifty years shall attain an age of fifty years while not in the service, the amount of age and service annuity to which he >>or she<< shall have a right from and after the time when he >>or she<< shall have attained [[such]] >>the<< age of fifty years and shall have applied for annuity, and the amount of widow's >>or widower’s<< annuity to which his [[wife]] >>or her spouse<< shall have a right from and after the date of [[his]] >>the city employed spouse’s<< death shall be fixed as of their respective ages at that time; provided, that if any [[such wife]] >>spouse<< shall be older than >>his or<< her [[husband]] >>the city employed spouse<<, >>his or<< her age for annuity purposes shall be assumed to be fifty years.
