  3. An officer to whom an outfit gratuity has been paid and who fails to serve for two years from the date of becoming eligible therefor will be required to refund one-fourth of the gratuity in respect of each period of six months (or part of such period) by which his service falls short of two years. The refund may, however, be waived in whole or in part, at the discretion of the Naval Board, if the failure to complete two years’ service is due to death, invaliding through causes beyond the officer’s own control, or other special circumstances.

  4. In the case of officers who are appointed as “probationary” or “acting” for a period, half the gratuity is payable on entry and the balance when the officer has completed his probationary or acting service and has been confirmed in rank.
