. If she had purchased the extra three months of service prior to her exit from the GEPF, she would have received a gratuity of R52 958.14 and a monthly annuity of R1 224.04.

If the special petitioner was allowed to purchase the three months of service she would therefore have to repay R131 022.52 to the GEPF, and it was not known whether she was currently able to do so. . If the special petitioner was to purchase additional service, she would have to repay the gratuity that she had received in August 2010, or a portion of it, but then additional amount would be paid by her and her former employer to the GEPF.
