(a)
Notwithstanding any other provision of this part to the contrary, when property, received by a corporation, covered by this part from a person directly affiliated with that corporation has been contributed based upon an affirmative representation that it would be used for a specific purpose other than the general support of the corporation’s activities and has been used in a manner contrary to the specific purpose for which the property was contributed, an action may be brought by the contributor or by any person listed in paragraph (1), (2), or (3) of subdivision (a) of Section 9142, if that person, before bringing an action, notifies the corporation, in writing, that an action will be brought unless the corporation takes immediate steps to correct any improper diversion of funds.
(b)
In the event that it becomes impractical or impossible for the corporation to devote the property to the specific purpose for which it was contributed, or that the directors or members of the corporation in good faith expressly conclude and record in writing that the stated purpose for which the property was contributed is no longer in accord with the policies or best interests of the corporation, the directors or members of the corporation may, in good faith, approve or ratify the use of the property for the general purposes of the corporation rather than for the specific purpose for which it was contributed.
(c)
A public officer may not bring an action in an official capacity under this section even on behalf of a private person.
