3. Whether a retiree holding a Municipality or County elective office chooses to waive his or her salary as described in Section 103.2.a. or receive limited compensation as described in Section 103.2.b, the employing municipality or county shall pay to the board the employer's contributions, as is in effect at the time of employment, on the full amount of the set salary for that elected position as if the position were filled by a covered employee.

c. For chancery and circuit clerks, the county shall pay the amount of the employer's contributions on the amount that would otherwise have been the clerk's total County Payroll Income, whether or not such income is subject to the salary limitation as provided in Miss. Code Ann. § 9-1-43 (1972, as amended), as reported on the Annual Financial Report filed by the clerk with the Office of the State Auditor and PERS, not to exceed any applicable employee compensation limits, as if the position was filled by a covered employee.
