(B) The Controller will first determine the percentage of the property tax rate, if any, attributable to general obligation bonds of any of the Issuing Entities (“the General Obligation Bond Factor”) for each tax year. The passthrough rate for an individual tenant (the “Tenant Passthrough Rate”) shall be based on the amount that the General Obligation Bond Factor for the current year has increased since the tenant’s Base Year; and the degree to which said increase, if any, is attributable to Eligible Bonds, as measured by the ratio of debt service for the Eligible Bonds compared to the total debt service attributable to general obligation bonds of the Issuing Entities. The resulting figure shall then be discounted to reflect the specific percentage passthroughs for each of the Eligible Bonds as specified in subsection (A). The Controller shall prepare and annually update a form to help landlords and tenants calculate the Tenant Passthrough Rates. The Controller’s authority to interpret and administer this calculation shall be liberally construed to further the purposes of this subsection (a)(6).

(C) To calculate the amount of increased property tax that the landlord can pass through to a tenant in any given year, the landlord shall divide the total amount of the net taxable value as of November 1 of the applicable tax year by the total number of all units in the property, including commercial units; and shall multiply the resulting figure by the applicable Tenant Passthrough Rate. The result is the dollar amount of increased property taxes for that tax year for a particular property attributable to the repayment of Eligible Bonds that the landlord may pass through to the tenant.
