If a joint and survivor annuity is elected, the annuity shall be calculated using the age of the member and the age of the member’s beneficiary on the member’s retirement date. A member may elect a joint and survivor annuity only if the member elected to receive a modified allowance pursuant to Section 24300 or 24300.1.

(b)

The beneficiary designation made pursuant to Section 24307 is not applicable to benefits payable under this chapter.
