" (d) RETIRED PAY.—Any individual who— "(1) retires under paragraph (1), (2), or (3) of subsection (b) and elects under subsection (e) to receive retired pay under this subsection shall receive retired pay during any period at a rate which bears the same ratio to the rate of the salary payable to a judge during such period as the number of years he has served as judge bears to 10; except that the rate of such retired pay shall not be more than the rate of such salary for such period; or "(2) retires under paragraph (4) of subsection (b) and elects under subsection (e) to receive retired pay under this subsection shall receive retired pay during any period at a rate— " (A) equal to the rate of the salary payable to a judge during such period if before he retired he had served as a judge not less than 10 years; or " (B) one-half of the rate of the salary payable to a judge during such period if before he retired he had served as a judge less than 10 years. Such retired pay shall begin to accrue on the day following the day on which his salary as judge ceases to accrue, and shall continue to accrue during the remainder of his life.
