If the beneficiary is deceased or otherwise cannot accept the transfer, the moneys in the individual development account derived from the account holder's earned income and any interest accrued thereon shall be transferred to the estate of the account holder. b. If an individual development account is closed pursuant to subsection a. of this section or an account holder withdraws from the individual development account program or forfeits his State matching funds due to an unauthorized withdrawal, any moneys held for matching funds for that account may be retained in the reserve fund for reallocation to be used as matching funds for new individual development accounts.
