(1) an exercise of the power of eminent domain; or

(2) by a right of entry agreement executed by reason of the threat or imminence of eminent domain, the ad valorem property tax assessed and collected on the property under this chapter shall be determined on the basis of the relationship which the number of months the property was held by the property owner, prior to the granting by the court of an order of occupancy or the execution of a right of entry agreement, bears to the taxable year.
