Section 2012 - Exhaustion of rights under other policies, governmental program or associationsA.1. Any person having a claim against an insurer shall be required to first exhaust all coverage provided by another policy if it arises from the same facts, injury or loss that gave rise to the covered claim against the Oklahoma Property and Casualty Insurance Guaranty Association. The requirement to exhaust all coverage shall apply without regard to whether the other insurance policy is a policy written by a member insurer. However, no person shall be required to exhaust any right under the policy of an insolvent insurer or any right under a life insurance policy.2. Any amount payable on a covered claim under the Oklahoma Property and Casualty Insurance Guaranty Association Act shall be reduced by the full applicable limits stated in the insurance policy or by the amount of the recovery under the insurance policy as provided herein. The Association shall receive a full credit for the stated limits, unless the claimant demonstrates that the claimant used reasonable efforts to exhaust all coverage and limits applicable under the other insurance policy. If the claimant demonstrates that the claimant used reasonable efforts to exhaust all coverage and limits applicable under the insurance policy, or if there are no applicable stated limits under the policy, the Association shall receive a full credit for the total recovery.B. Any person having a claim which may be recovered under more than one insurance guaranty association or its equivalent in another state shall seek recovery first from the association of the place of residence of the insured. If it is a first party claim for damage to property with a permanent location, the person shall seek recovery first from the association of the state where the property is located, and if it is a workers' compensation claim, the person shall seek recovery first from the association of the residence of the claimant. Any recovery under this act shall be reduced by the amount of recovery from any other insurance guaranty association or its equivalent.Okla. Stat. tit. 36, § 2012
