(b) The exemption described in paragraph (3) of subdivision (a)

(c) Without prejudice to the right to assert an exemption
otherwise available under subdivision (a), (d), or (e) of Section 3
of Article XIII of the Constitution, a property tax under this
division shall be imposed upon that portion of the bookstore property
determined to be generating the unrelated business taxable income,
as defined in Section 512 of the Internal Revenue Code, to the extent
property is:
(1) Owned by an educational institution of collegiate grade or
used by a nonprofit corporation operating a student bookstore
affiliated with such an educational institution, and
(2) Is primarily devoted to bookstore use that produces income
that is taxable as unrelated business taxable income.

unrelated business taxable income to the bookstore's gross income as
defined by the Internal Revenue Code. That percent shall be the
maximum percentage of such bookstore property on which a property tax
can be levied.
At the end of a fiscal year when unrelated business income has
been generated, the nonprofit organization shall file with the
assessor copies of the organization's most recent tax return filed
with the Internal Revenue Service.
