(a) he makes an application to that effect to the Commission within six months of the commencement of such leave without salary,
(b) he pays, for each of such years, an amount equal to 200% of the deductions that would have been made had he not been so on leave, based on the salary he was receiving when he was granted such leave and,
(c) he holds an employment contemplated by this act from the end of his leave without salary, unless he has deceased or become disabled or entitled to retirement, or unless, upon his return, he transfers to the service of an employer with whom the Commission has concluded an agreement of transferability.
The Commission shall determine the times at which such payments must be made. However, any amount not paid from the date of the return to work bears interest at the rate determined by the regulation made under paragraph n of section 149.
