That is a list of requirements to log SIC time. Since there is an "or" between the second and third retirement, that means that you have to satisfy requirement 1, and 2 or 3. That is why there is a semicolon after requirement 1, it is part of the required list. If they only wanted you to comply with one of those requirements, then there would be an or after 1 and 2. They placed the or where they did for a reason.

(f) Logging second-in-command flight time. A person may log second-in-command time only for that flight time during which that person:

(1) Is qualified in accordance with the second-in-command requirements of § 61.55, and occupies a crewmember station in an aircraft that requires more than one pilot by the aircraft's type certificate;

(2) Holds the appropriate category, class, and instrument rating (if an instrument rating is required for the flight) for the aircraft being flown, and more than one pilot is required under the type certification of the aircraft or the regulations under which the flight is being conducted; or

(3) Serves as second in command in operations conducted in accordance with § 135.99(c) of this chapter when a second pilot is not required under the type certification of the aircraft or the regulations under which the flight is being conducted, provided the requirements in § 61.159(c) are satisfied.
