"Class B" shall include those members who have elected or who shall hereafter elect to contribute to the annuity savings fund at a higher rate per centum, computed to be sufficient, with regular interest, to procure for the member, on retirement for service, an annuity equal to 1/120 of his final compensation for each year of service as a member.
