Okla. Stat. tit. 15, § 15-245A.4: Death of dealer

A. This section shall only apply to single-line dealer

agreements.

B. If a dealer dies, a supplier shall have ninety (90) days in

which to consider and make a determination on a request by a family

member to enter into a new dealer agreement to operate the

dealership. If the supplier determines that the requesting family

member is not acceptable, the supplier shall provide the family

member with a written notice of its determination with the stated

reasons for nonacceptance. This section does not entitle an heir,

personal representative or family member to operate a dealership

without the specific written consent of the supplier.

C. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a supplier and dealer have

previously executed an agreement concerning succession rights prior

to the dealer’s death, and if such agreement is still in effect, the

agreement shall be observed even if it designates someone other than

the surviving spouse or heirs of the decedent as the successor.
