Master Service Agreement

Effective as of 5th of April 2024

This Services Agreement is entered between
Murf Inc., a Delaware corporation, with its principal place of business at 341 South Main Street, Suite 500, Salt Lake City, Utah 84111, United States of America (“Provider”), and a signatory party to duly executed Service Order Form referencing this Agreement. This Agreement contains the terms and conditions under which Murf Inc. provides its Services to the Customers. The provision of Services is contingent on the Customer's acceptance of the terms and conditions stated in this Agreement. 

Any contradicting terms contained in Service Order Form or other separately signed and executed agreements between Customer and Provider shall supersede provisions from this Agreement. No conduct by Provider shall be deemed to constitute an acceptance of any terms put forward by the Customer unless such terms are explicitly accepted by signing the document containing such terms. For the avoidance of doubt, Provider does not accept any terms or provisions included by reference in any of the documents provided by the Customer, even if signed by Provider, unless Provider also signs such referenced documents. 

  1. Capitalized Terms

    Capitalized terms are defined in context or in Section 21 (Definitions). 

  2. Service.

    Subject to this Agreement, Customer may use the Service for its and its Affiliates’ internal business purposes during the Subscription Term (“Permitted Use”). This includes the right to use the Provider Software (if any) and Documentation (if any) as part of Customer’s Permitted Use. Customer will comply with the Documentation when using the Service.

  3. Users

    Customer may permit Users to use the Service on its behalf. Customer is responsible for provisioning and managing its User accounts, for its Users’ actions through the Service and for their compliance with this Agreement. Customer will ensure that Users keep their login credentials confidential and will promptly notify Provider upon learning of any compromise of User accounts or credentials.

  4. Affiliates

    Customer’s Affiliates may serve as Users under this Agreement. Alternatively, Customer’s Affiliates may enter into their own Orders as mutually agreed with Provider, which creates a separate agreement between each such Affiliate and Provider incorporating this Agreement with the Affiliate treated as “Customer”. Neither Customer nor any Affiliate of Customer has any rights under each other’s separate agreement with Provider, and breach or termination of any such separate agreement affects only that agreement. Customer will be responsible for the actions or inactions of its Users and Affiliates.

These procedures are Customer’s exclusive remedies and Provider’s sole liability for breach of the Performance Warranty.
