Article 9

The right to receive payment of survivor's pension shall have effect from the first day of the calendar month following that in which the staff member or former staff member in receipt of an invalidity allowance died. However, where the payment provided for in Article 60(8) is made on the death of the staff member or of the person entitled to a pension, such right shall take effect on the first day of the fourth month following that in which death occurred.

The right to receive payment of survivor's pension shall cease at the end of the calendar month in which the recipient of the pensions dies or ceases to satisfy the requirements for payment of the pension.

Similarly the right to an orphan's pension shall cease if the recipient ceases to be regarded as a dependent child within the meaning of Article 2 of Annex IV.
