Except as provided in RSA 563:6, if:
I. It is not established by clear and convincing evidence that one of 2 co-owners with right of survivorship survived the other co-owner by 120 hours,
1/2 of the property passes as if one had survived by 120 hours and
1/2 as if the other had survived by 120 hours; and
II. There are more than 2 co-owners and it is not established by clear and convincing evidence that at least one of them survived the others by 120 hours, the property passes in the proportion that one bears to the whole number of co-owners.
