In the event a cost-of-living adjustment is not payable based on the valuation for the year ending June 30, 2007, as provided in R.S. 11:242, the board may, in its discretion, authorize a nonrecurring lump-sum benefit supplement to be paid from the excess interest earnings of the system.  The benefit supplement may be in an amount not to exceed three percent of the normal annual benefit; however, in no event shall the benefit supplement be less than three hundred dollars.  The benefit supplement shall be paid in a single lump-sum payment.  The supplement shall be granted only to those who would otherwise be eligible for a cost-of-living adjustment.
