63. The spouse of a victim on the date of the victim’s death is entitled to a lump sum indemnity equal to the product obtained by multiplying the gross income that would have been used as the basis for computing the income replacement indemnity to which the victim would have been entitled if, on the date of his death, he had survived but had been unable to hold any employment by reason of the accident, by the factor appearing in Schedule I opposite the age of the victim on the date of his death.
If the spouse is disabled on that date, the lump sum indemnity to which he is entitled is computed according to the factors appearing in Schedule II.
