MEMORANDUM

1. We affirm the district court’s holding that the Business Auto Policy issued by Nationwide Mutual Insurance Company (Nationwide) to Titan Framing Company (Titan) provided coverage for the defense and settlement of Susan McArdle’s wrongful death action against Titan. The policy’s plain language states that it covers “any auto,” but it is unclear whether “any auto” covers the. vehicle here. In First American Title Insurance Co. v. Johnson Bank, 239 Ariz. 348 , 372 P,3d 292, 296 (2016), the Arizona Supreme Court explained that uncertainties in an insurance contract, such as the meaning of “any auto” in Nationwide’s policy, must be resolved in the following manner: “If a clause appears ambiguous, we interpret it by looking to legislative goals, social policy, and the transaction as a whole. If an ambiguity remains after considering these factors, we construe it against the insurer.” Consideration of the legislative goals, social policy, and the transaction between Nationwide and Titan as a whole does not resolve the uncertainty of the term “any auto.” Accordingly, under Arizona Supreme Court law, the term “any auto” must be construed against Nationwide. The district court correctly concluded that the Business Auto Policy covered the claims in the McArdle action.

2. The district court did not err in holding that the principle of equitable subrogation entitled Navigators Specialty Insurance Company (Navigators) to contribution from Nationwide. Under the principle of equitable subrogation, an insurer that has provided a defense to an insured can compel contribution from “another insurer who had a similar obligation to the same insured.” National Indemnity Co. v. St. Paul Insurance Companies, 150 Ariz. 458 , 724 P.2d 544, 545 (1986) (en banc); see also Sourcecorp, Inc. v. Norcutt, 227 Ariz. 463 , 258 P.3d 281, 285 (Ct. App. 2011) (noting that equitable subrogation extends not only to defense costs but also to any debt that ought to be paid by one creditor rather than another). Nationwide and Navigators had similar obligations to Titan—under Arizona law, they both provided primary coverage for McArdle’s claims. See Harbor Insurance Co. v. United Services Automobile Ass’n, 114 Ariz. 58 , 559 P.2d 178, 183 (Ct. App. 1976). The district court did not err in holding that Nationwide must reimburse Navigators in the amount of $218,357.46, half of Navigators’ settlement costs and half of its defense costs from the date of tender to Nationwide. See Nucor Corp. v. Employers Insurance Co. of Wausau, 231 Ariz. 411 , 296 P.3d 74, 85 (Ct. App. 2012) (allocating defense costs among insurers is a matter of equitable judicial discretion).

3. The district court did not err in awarding Navigators reasonable attorney’s fees under Arizona Revised Statutes § 12-341.01(A). See California Casualty Insurance Co. v. American Family Mutual Insurance Co., 208 Ariz. 416 , 94 P.3d 616, 622 (Ct. App. 2004).
