(c)
The remaining balance of a retired member’s accumulated retirement contributions shall be the difference between the balance of the accumulated retirement contributions on the effective date of the member’s retirement and the total retirement allowance paid or payable to the retired member on the date of the member’s death. If the retired member predeceased the option beneficiary, the remaining balance of the retired member’s accumulated retirement contributions shall be the difference between the balance of the accumulated retirement contributions on the effective date of the member’s retirement and the total retirement allowance paid or payable to the retired member and the option beneficiary on the date of the option beneficiary’s death.

The filing of a waiver by a beneficiary constitutes a complete and immediate discharge of all obligations of the board, the system, or the plan to or on behalf of the beneficiary.
