     U.S.C. § 301 et seq.), in addition to the regular member
     contributions which, after such election, shall be determined on
     the basis of the basic contribution rate of 5% and the
     additional member contribution of 1 1/4%: Provided, That a
     member may elect to discontinue Social Security integration
     coverage and shall thereafter be ineligible to accrue any

     benefits on account of Social Security integration membership.
