(e) The Board may make such premium adjustments retrospective to the prior year and each Member City shall pay any additional premium required by such retrospective adjustment. (f) The Board shall adopt criteria for determining each City's annual share of pooled losses, expenses and contribution to a catastrophe fund which may include the City's payroll as compared to the total payroll of all Member Cities, the City's individual loss experience, and such other criteria as the Board may determine to be relevant. (g) The annual readjustment of the amount of premium shall be made and notices for readjusted premium amounts and the next year's premiums shall be distributed at least ninety (90) days prior to the close of each fiscal year. This premium amount, together with any readjusted amount due under paragraph (c) above, shall be due and payable on or before fifteen (15) days after the beginning of the fiscal year. (h) Inasmuch as some Member Cities may experience an unusual frequency of losses during a single fiscal year, which could increase their final premium substantially above the prepaid premium for that year and cause budgetary problems, the Board may provide for payment of a portion of such additional premium to be made over a period of time, not to exceed three years, plus reasonable interest.
