Sec. 845.504. EXCESS BENEFIT PROGRAM. (a) If the board of trustees determines that it is in the interest of the retirement system and will benefit members and annuitants, the board by rule may establish an excess benefits program for the payment of benefits under Section 415(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, and its subsequent amendments, that would otherwise be barred by the limitation on benefits imposed by Section 415 of that code.
(b) Notwithstanding any other provision of this subtitle, the board of trustees by rule may provide for the transfer of contributions as part of the excess benefits program in a manner consistent with a governmental excess benefit arrangement.
