(2) Notwithstanding anything in these Regulations, where a contributor dies within five years after his marriage, having been a contributor under these Regulations at the time of his marriage or at any time since his marriage, the amount of any annual allowance to which his widow may be entitled under these Regulations shall, if the Treasury Board is not satisfied that anticipation of impending death was not a consideration affecting the agreement to marry, be reduced by (a) 100 per cent, if the contributor dies within one year after his marriage, (b) 98 per cent, if the contributor dies within the 13th month after his marriage, (c) 96 per cent, if the contributor dies within the 14th month after his marriage, and so on, by like progressions, until the 60th month after his marriage, but not thereafter.

(4) For the purposes of subsection (3), the value of a life annuity of $1 per annum shall be calculated in accordance with a(f) Ultimate Table, together with interest at the rate of four per cent per annum.
