      section  13-193,  shall  be  added  to  the  cumulative distributions of
      transferable earnings computed pursuant to subparagraph  (iii)  of  this
      paragraph.
        (v)  The  sum  resulting  from the addition prescribed by subparagraph
      (iv) of this paragraph (f) shall be subtracted from the amount  computed
      pursuant to subparagraph (ii) of this paragraph. The remainder resulting
      from  the subtraction shall be the cumulative earnings factor as of June

      defined  in  paragraph  (c)  of this subdivision) shall be determined as
      follows:
        (A) If the cumulative earnings factor for  the  immediately  preceding
      TPOVSF  basis  fiscal year related to a payment guarantee was a positive
      quantity, the cumulative earnings factor for  the  TPOVSF  basis  fiscal
    
      year  related  to  a  payment  guarantee  shall be equal to the earnings
      differential for such TPOVSF basis fiscal  year  related  to  a  payment
      guarantee.
        (B)  If  the  cumulative earnings factor for the immediately preceding
      TPOVSF basis fiscal year related to a payment guarantee was  a  negative
      quantity,  the  cumulative  earnings  factor for the TPOVSF basis fiscal
      year related to a payment guarantee shall be equal to the sum of:
        (1) the earnings differential for the TPOVSF basis fiscal year related
      to a payment guarantee; and
        (2) the cumulative  earnings  factor  for  the  immediately  preceding
      TPOVSF  basis fiscal year related to a payment guarantee, increased with
      interest at a rate equal to the assumed rate of interest (as defined  in
      paragraph  eight  of  subdivision  a of section 13-232 of this title, as
      made applicable to this section by  subdivision  two  of  this  section)
      fixed with respect to such TPOVSF basis fiscal year related to a payment
      guarantee  for  which  a  cumulative earnings factor is being determined
      pursuant to this paragraph (g).
        (ii) In applying the provisions of this paragraph (g)  for  the  first

      guarantee" shall be substituted for the term "cumulative earnings factor
      for the immediately preceding TPOVSF basis  fiscal  year  related  to  a
      payment guarantee."
        (h)  "TPOVSF  cumulative  earnings factor". With respect to any TPOVSF
      basis fiscal  year  related  to  a  payment  guarantee  (as  defined  in
      paragraph  (c)  of this subdivision), the amount obtained by multiplying
      the allocation to the transit  police  variable  supplements  funds  (as
      defined  in  paragraph  (f) of subdivision one of transit police section
      13-193 of this chapter, as made applicable to this section  13-193.2  by
      subdivision one thereof), for such TPOVSF basis fiscal year related to a
      payment  guarantee  by  a  fraction, the numerator of which shall be the
      total contributions made to the retirement system with respect  to  such
      TPOVSF basis fiscal year related to a payment guarantee on behalf of all
      transit  police  members  who are transit police officers (as defined in
      subparagraph two of paragraph (f) of subdivision one of  transit  police
      officers section 13-191), as of the last day of such TPOVSF basis fiscal
      year  and the denominator of which shall be the total contributions made
      to the retirement system with respect to such TPOVSF basis  fiscal  year
      related  to  a payment guarantee on behalf of all transit police members
      who are members of the uniformed transit police force as of the last day
      of such TPOVSF basis fiscal year.

      valuation  of  assets  and  liabilities  of the transit police officer's
      variable supplements fund by the actuary pursuant to  paragraph  (i)  of
      subdivision  three  of transit police officers section 13-191 shows that
      for any TPOVSF basis fiscal year related to a  payment  guarantee,  such
      liabilities  exceed  such  assets,  the  term  "TPOVSF  unfunded accrued
      liability" shall mean the amount of the excess of such liabilities  over
      the amount of such assets for such TPOVSF basis fiscal year.
        (j)  "TPOVSF  calendar  year  covered  by  a  payment  guarantee". The
      calendar year in which a guarantee, by a guarantee obligor  (as  defined
      in  paragraph  (g) of subdivision one of transit police officers section
      13-191 of this title), of payment of variable  supplements  first  takes
      effect  pursuant  to paragraph (f) or paragraph (g) of subdivision three
      of such section, and any succeeding calendar year.
    
        (k) "Current TPOVSF fiscal year related to a payment  guarantee".  The
      fiscal  year  of  the  city  next  succeeding a TPOVSF basis fiscal year
      related to a payment guarantee (as defined  in  paragraph  (c)  of  this
      subdivision).
        4.  As soon as practicable after the close of each TPOVSF basis fiscal
      year related to a payment guarantee (as  defined  in  paragraph  (c)  of
      subdivision  three  of  this  section),  but  not  later  than  December
      thirty-first of the current TPOVSF fiscal  year  related  to  a  payment
      guarantee  (as  defined  in  paragraph  (k) of subdivision three of this
      section), the board of trustees of the retirement system  shall  compute
      the  TPOVSF  cumulative  earnings factor (as defined in paragraph (h) of
      subdivision three of this section) with respect  to  such  TPOVSF  basis
      fiscal year.
        5.  If  the  TPOVSF  cumulative  earnings factor for such TPOVSF basis
      fiscal year is a positive quantity, the retirement system, on or  before
      December  thirty-first  of  the  current TPOVSF fiscal year related to a
      payment guarantee, shall pay from its contingent  reserve  fund  to  the
      transit  police  officer's variable supplements fund, as the payment due
      for such  TPOVSF  basis  fiscal  year  under  this  section,  an  amount
      determined  pursuant  to  the  provisions  of  subdivision  six  of this
      section.
        6. The amount payable for such TPOVSF basis fiscal  year  as  provided
      for  in  subdivision five of this section shall be the lesser of (a) the
      TPOVSF cumulative earnings factor for  such  TPOVSF  basis  fiscal  year
      referred  to in such subdivision five or (b) the TPOVSF unfunded accrued
      liability (as defined in paragraph (i)  of  subdivision  three  of  this
      section) for such TPOVSF basis fiscal year.
        7.  No amount shall be due from or payable by the retirement system to
      such variable supplements fund under this section for any  TPOVSF  basis
      fiscal year related to a payment guarantee which shall exceed the TPOVSF
      unfunded accrued liability for such TPOVSF basis fiscal year, regardless
      of the amount and character of the TPOVSF cumulative earnings factor for
      such TPOVSF basis fiscal year.
        8.  The  comptroller  shall  furnish  to  the board of trustees of the
      retirement system such information and data as it may  request  for  the
      purpose of carrying out the provisions of this section.
