(C) The university shall make periodic contributions to the alternative retirement plan for each employee who elected to participate in the alternative retirement plan, at the same rate that would have applied to such employee's position under the applicable state retirement system (STRS or PERS) had the employee not elected to participate in the alternative retirement plan.
(D) When there is an increase in the percentage rate of contributions under the state teachers retirement system (STRS) or the public employees retirement system (PERS) as to employees covered by each such system, either on behalf of the university, the employee, or both, then there shall be a parallel increase in the contributions made by the university, the employee, or both, as the case may be, as to employees covered by the grandfathered retirement plan or the alternative retirement plan. Such increase shall be by the same percentage of the employee's salary as is the increase in the contribution rate to the state teachers retirement system (STRS) or the public employees retirement system (PERS).
