4.   PRODUCT SALES

     4.1   Purchase Commitment.  Pursuant to the terms and conditions contained
in this Agreement and in consideration of SMART's development of the Product,
WATCHGUARD shall purchase from SMART WATCHGUARD's

                                      -3-
<PAGE>

requirements of the Product as determined by WATCHGUARD from time to time (the
"Purchase Commitment"). WATCHGUARD may terminate the Purchase Commitment
provided (i) the Product delivered by SMART has a defect rate, as calculated
below ("Defect Rate"), and such defects are solely attributable to SMART:

(a)  greater than ten percent (10%) of the first consecutive three thousand
     (3,000) units shipped;

(b)  greater than five percent (5%) of the next consecutive three thousand
     (3,000) units shipped;

(c)  greater than four percent (4%) of the following consecutive three thousand
     (3,000) units shipped; or

(d)  greater than three percent (3%) of all units shipped thereafter ("Defect
     Rate");

(ii) WATCHGUARD provides SMART with written notice of its intent to terminate
the Purchase Commitment, and (iii) SMART fails to reduce the applicable Defect
Rate within thirty (30) calendar days of its receipt of such notice.  The Defect
Rate shall be calculated in increments of 1,000 units, i.e., for units 1 through
1,000, the Defect Rate may not be greater that 10%; said Defect Rate applies for
units 1,001 through 2,000 and units 2001 through 3,000; the Defect Rate for
units 3,001 to 4,000 may not be greater than 5%, and so forth.  WATCHGUARD may
also terminate the Purchase Commitment if (i) SMART delivers Product to
WATCHGUARD with Defect Rates exceeding those listed above three (3) times in any
six (6) month period, and such defects are solely attributable to SMART, and
(ii) WATCHGUARD provides SMART with written notice of its intent to terminate
the Purchase Commitment.

     4.2  Lead-Times and Purchase Orders.  Lead-times may vary from time to
time.  SMART's current minimum lead-time for delivery of Product is three (3)
months.  Product lead-time is based on then current manufacturing lead-time as
well as then current raw material lead-time and allocations.  As such, if there
are any changes in manufacturing lead-time as well as raw material lead-time or
allocations, then Product lead-time may change accordingly.  WATCHGUARD's
initial purchase order for production versions of the Product shall, at a
minimum, cover the Purchase Commitment for the initial four (4) months.  This
initial purchase order shall be provided to SMART in accordance with the terms
and conditions of this Agreement, and shall specify WATCHGUARD's requested
shipment dates and quantities of the Product for said period.  After the initial
purchase order, WATCHGUARD shall

                                      -4-
<PAGE>

provide SMART with follow-on purchase orders at a minimum every four (4) months,
if and to the extent necessary, to fulfill the Purchase Commitment. Said follow-
on purchase orders shall be provided to SMART in accordance with the terms and
conditions of this Agreement, and shall specify WATCHGUARD's requested shipment
dates and quantities of the Product for a period of no less than six (6) months.
Neither the initial, nor any follow-on purchase order shall be binding on SMART
until SMART accepts it. Once accepted by SMART, each such purchase order shall
be binding on WATCHGUARD, shall be non-cancelable and shall be governed by the
terms and conditions of this Agreement, irrespective of any conflicting,
contrary or additional terms which may be set forth in such purchase order.

     4.3   Forecasts.  In addition to the purchase orders which WATCHGUARD is to
provide to SMART covering the Purchase Commitment, at the beginning of each
month during the term of this Agreement WATCHGUARD shall provide SMART with a
rolling forecast of WATCHGUARD's anticipated requirements for the Product for
the fifth (5th), sixth (6th) and seventh (7th) months following such month.
Such forecasts are estimates only and are not binding on WATCHGUARD.

     4.4  Product Price.  The price for the Product shall be as set forth in
Exhibit C and shall be in United States dollars.  The Product price shall not
include charges for transportation, insurance, special packaging, marking,
applicable sale or use taxes, value added taxes, export or import licenses,
fees, taxes, duties and the like, the costs of which shall be paid by WATCHGUARD
in addition to the Product price.

     4.5   Payment.  All payments owed by WATCHGUARD to SMART for the Product
shall be made in United States dollars net thirty (30) calendar days after the
applicable Product shipment date.

     4.6   Shipment, Title and Risk of Loss.  All Product sold hereunder shall
be delivered to WATCHGUARD Ex Works (Incoterms 1990) SMART's manufacturing
facility.  In the absence of written instructions from WATCHGUARD, SMART shall
select the common carrier but shall not thereby assume any liability in
connection with the shipment of Product, nor shall the common carrier be
construed to be the agent of SMART.  Title of the Product shall pass from SMART
to WATCHGUARD when the Product is made available by SMART to the common carrier
or to WATCHGUARD if the Product is to be picked up by WATCHGUARD, and as of and
after that time, WATCHGUARD shall bear any and all risk of loss of or damage to
the Product.

     4.7   Rescheduling.  WATCHGUARD may reschedule each shipment of Product
ordered pursuant to this Agreement not more than once, provided that

                                      -5-
<PAGE>

WATCHGUARD gives SMART at least thirty (30) calendar days written notice in
advance of the original scheduled shipment date (the "Original Scheduled
Shipment Date"), and that the rescheduled shipment date is no later than sixty
(60) calendar days after the Original Scheduled Shipment Date.

     4.8   Limited Warranty.  Except as otherwise provided herein, SMART
warrants that any Product sold pursuant to this Agreement shall be free from
defects in material and workmanship, and shall materially conform to the Product
specifications specified in Exhibit A to this Agreement, or hereafter agreed to
by the parties in a written instrument executed by an authorized officer of
SMART, for a period of one (l) year from the initial date SMART delivers said
Product to WATCHGUARD.  SMART and WATCHGUARD shall work together in good faith
to develop acceptable test procedures and test criteria for the Product.  After
the earlier of the first three (3) months of production or three thousand
(3,000) Products manufactured, SMART warrants that the Product failure rate
attributable solely to SMART shall not be higher than ten percent (10%) of, in
the aggregate, any consecutive one thousand (1,000) units shipped by SMART,
i.e., one hundred (100) units or more.  Thereafter, SMART warrants that the
Product failure rate attributable solely to SMART shall not be higher than five
percent (5%) of, in the aggregate, any consecutive one thousand (1,000) units
shipped by SMART, i.e., fifty (50) units or more.  WATCHGUARD must report
failure mechanisms to SMART with all accompanying data to assist SMART to cure
said failure.  SMART and WATCHGUARD shall work together in good faith to
determine the cause of any failures and to modify the test procedures to cure
any problems.  The warranty contained in this Section 4.8 does not cover
malfunctions, failures or defects resulting from misuse, abuse, accident,
neglect, improper or inadequate maintenance, alteration, modification, improper
installation or repairs by any party other than SMART.  The warranty extends
only to the original purchaser, WATCHGUARD, and may not be assigned.  The
liability of SMART, and the remedies available to WATCHGUARD, under this limited
warranty shall be limited to replacing, or repairing, or refunding the purchase
price of (at SMART's sole discretion and option) any defective Product which is
returned to SMART in accordance with the Warranty Return Procedure specified
below.  EXCEPT AS SET FORTH IN THIS SECTION, SMART MAKES NO WARRANTIES OF ANY
KIND, EXPRESS, IMPLIED, STATUTORY OR OTHERWISE, AND EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ANY SUCH
WARRANTIES INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION ANY EXPRESS, STATUTORY OR IMPLIED
WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.

     4.9   Warranty Return Procedure.  Prior to shipping any Product back to
SMART, WATCHGUARD shall ensure that such Product is defective, and shall obtain
a Return Material Authorization ("RMA") number from SMART.

                                      -6-
<PAGE>

WATCHGUARD shall include the RMA number on the outside packaging of such
returned Product, and shall also include with such returned Product a written
statement bearing the RMA number and specifying the defect for which the Product
is being returned. WATCHGUARD shall pay the shipping costs for returning the
Product to SMART, and shall assume any and all risk of loss of or damage to said
Product during shipping. If SMART elects to repair or replace the Product, SMART
shall pay the shipping costs to return said Product to the location from which
it was returned by WATCHGUARD, but WATCHGUARD shall bear any and all risk of
loss of or damage to said Product at all times after said Product is made
available by SMART to the common carrier or to WATCHGUARD if said Product is to
be picked up by WATCHGUARD. Any Product which has been returned, but which SMART
determines not to be defective, or which has defects resulting from misuse,
abuse, accident, neglect, improper or inadequate maintenance, alteration,
modification, improper installation or repairs by any party other than SMART,
shall be returned to WATCHGUARD at WATCHGUARD's sole expense and risk. Title to
any Product returned under warranty shall at all times remain with WATCHGUARD
unless and until SMART either replaces such Product, or credits WATCHGUARD's
account for the price of such Product in lieu of repair or replacement, at which
time title to said Product shall pass to SMART. Any repair or replacement of any
Product hereunder shall not extend the warranty period for said Product.

5.   CONFIDENTIALITY

     Each party hereto agrees that all trade secrets, intellectual property,
code, inventions, algorithms, schematics, test vectors, lists of suppliers,
know-how and ideas and all other business, technical and financial information
it obtains from the other party which is identified in writing or orally as
"Confidential" and/or "Proprietary," or which would logically be considered
"Confidential" and/or "Proprietary," is the confidential and proprietary
property (the "Confidential Property") of the disclosing party.  Except as
expressly permitted herein, the receiving party (i) shall hold in strictest
confidence and not use for any purpose (except as contemplated hereunder) or
disclose to any party (other than employees or agents on a need-to-know basis)
any Confidential Property of the disclosing party, (ii) shall take reasonable
protective measures (no less than the measures it takes to protect its own
Confidential Property) to safeguard such Confidential Property, and (iii) shall
bind in writing any and all of its employees or agents with access to such
Confidential Property to the terms and conditions of this Section 5.  All
Confidential Property disclosed hereunder shall remain the exclusive property of
the disclosing party.  Upon termination or expiration of this Agreement or upon
written request, any and all Confidential Property disclosed hereunder shall be
promptly returned to the disclosing party.  The restrictions hereunder shall
survive the termination or expiration of this Agreement.  Each party

                                      -7-
<PAGE>

acknowledges that the breach of this Section 5 would cause immediate and
irreparable harm to the other party and agrees that in the event of such breach,
said non-breaching party shall be entitled, in addition to any other available
right or remedy, to seek equitable relief without the necessity of proving
actual damages and without the necessity of posting a bond or other security.
The receiving party shall not be obligated under this Section 5 with respect to
Confidential Property the receiving party can document:

     5.1   is or has become readily publicly available without restriction
through no fault of the receiving party or its employees or agents; or

     5.2   is received without restriction from a third party lawfully in
possession of such information and lawfully empowered to disclose such
information; or

     5.3   was rightfully in the possession of the receiving party without
restriction prior to its disclosure by the other party; or

     5.4   is independently developed by employees or consultants of the
receiving party without access to such Confidential Property; or

     5.5   is required to be disclosed by law, a government agency or order of a
court, provided that the receiving party provides prompt written notice of such
disclosure so as to afford the disclosing party an opportunity to intervene and
prevent or limit the disclosure.

6.   INFRINGEMENT

     6.1   Notification of Third Party Infringement.  Each party shall inform
the other promptly in writing of any alleged infringement by a third party of
any Developed Technology of which such party becomes aware, and of any available
evidence thereof.  WATCHGUARD shall have the right, but shall not be obligated,
to prosecute at its own expense all infringements of the Developed Technology
and, in furtherance of such right, SMART hereby agrees that WATCHGUARD may
include SMART as a party plaintiff in any such suit, without expense to SMART.
The total cost of any such infringement action commenced solely by WATCHGUARD
shall be borne by WATCHGUARD.  No settlement, consent judgment or other
voluntary final disposition of the suit may be entered into without the prior
written consent of an authorized representative of SMART, which consent shall
not be unreasonably withheld.  Any recovery of damages by WATCHGUARD for each
such suit may be retained entirely by WATCHGUARD; provided, however that SMART
may at its option elect to pay up to half of the expenses of any such suit and
in such case any recovery of damages shall be applied first in satisfaction of
any unreimbursed

                                      -8-
<PAGE>

expenses and legal fees of both parties and then divided between WATCHGUARD and
SMART, in each case on a pro rata basis according to the percentage of expenses
borne by each party prior to the recovery.

     6.2   SMART Option to Prosecute Infringement.  If within one (1) month
after having been notified of any alleged infringement, WATCHGUARD shall have
been unsuccessful in persuading the alleged infringer to desist and shall not
have brought and shall not be diligently prosecuting an infringement action, or
if WATCHGUARD shall notify SMART at any time prior thereto of its intention not
to bring suit against any alleged infringer, or if the statute of limitation is
about to end, then, and in those events only, SMART shall have the right, but
shall not be obligated, to prosecute at its own expense any action for
infringement of the Developed Technology, and in such event SMART shall be
entitled to retain for itself all recoveries and SMART may, for such purposes
use the name of WATCHGUARD as a party plaintiff.

     6.3   Declaratory Judgment Actions.  In the event that a declaratory
judgment action alleging invalidity or non-infringement of any of the Developed
Technology shall be brought against either or both of WATCHGUARD or SMART, said
party shall give notice to the other of any such action and the parties shall
cooperate in good faith to determine how best to defend such action.  If the
parties cannot agree on how to defend any such action, either party may on its
own defend any action brought against it, provided that no settlement, consent
judgment or other voluntary final disposition may be entered into without the
prior written consent of an authorized representative of the other party, which
consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

     6.4   Cooperation in Prosecuting Actions.  In any infringement suit as
either party may institute or defend to enforce or defend the Developed
Technology pursuant to this Agreement, the other party hereto shall, at the
request and expense of the litigating party cooperate in all respects and, to
the extent possible, have its employees and independent contractors testify when
requested and make available, under appropriate protective orders and other
safeguards, relevant records, papers, information, samples, specimens and the
like.

7.   INDEMNITY AGAINST INFRINGEMENT

     7.1   SMART's Indemnity Obligation.  Except as otherwise provided herein,
SMART shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless WATCHGUARD and its subsidiaries
from and against (i) any and all claims, demands, actions, suits, litigation,
proceedings and the like alleging that the use or sale of the Product infringes
upon or

                                      -9-
<PAGE>

misappropriates any third party's patent, trademark, trade secret, copyright,
mask work or other intellectual property rights ("IP Claims"), and (ii) any and
all liens, liabilities, judgments, damages, costs, expenses (including
reasonable attorney's fees) and the like arising out of or related to any IP
Claim covered under this Section 7.1; provided, however, that the foregoing
indemnity and defense obligation is conditioned on each of the following: (i)
prompt written notice by WATCHGUARD to SMART of any IP Claim for which indemnity
is claimed hereunder, (ii) complete control of the defense and settlement
thereof by SMART, and (iii) complete cooperation by WATCHGUARD in such defense
at SMART's expense. SMART shall have no obligation whatsoever pursuant to this
Agreement or otherwise (i) for or with respect to IP Claims arising out of or
related to designs, instructions, specifications or intellectual property not
developed by SMART or not furnished by SMART including without limitation
WATCHGUARD's contribution to the Developed Technology, (ii) for or with respect
to IP Claims arising out of or related to the combination of the Product with
any hardware, products, equipment, materials, text, graphics, software or the
like supplied by a party other than SMART, (iii) for or with respect to IP
Claims arising out of or related to the modification of the Product by a party
other than SMART, (iv) for or with respect to IP Claims arising out of or
related to WATCHGUARD's failure to substitute any replacement Product, or part
thereof, supplied by SMART pursuant to Section 7.3 herein, or (v) for any
settlement entered into without the prior written consent of an authorized
representative of SMART. Notwithstanding the foregoing, WATCHGUARD may defend
and/or settle any IP Claim for which SMART materially fails to perform its
indemnity obligation under this Section 7.1 without adversely affecting
WATCHGUARD's indemnity rights under this Section 7.1.

     7.2  WATCHGUARD's Indemnity Obligation.  Except as otherwise provided
herein, WATCHGUARD shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless SMART and its
subsidiaries from and against (i) any and all IP Claims arising out of or
related to designs, instructions, specifications or intellectual property
developed by WATCHGUARD or furnished by WATCHGUARD including without limitation
WATCHGUARD's contribution to the Developed Technology, (ii) any and all IP
Claims arising out of or related to the combination of the Product with any
hardware, products, equipment, materials, text, graphics, software or the like
supplied by a party other than SMART, (iii) any and all IP Claims arising out of
or related to the modification of the Product by a party other than SMART, and
(iv) any and all liens, liabilities, judgments, damages, costs, expenses
(including reasonable attorney's fees) and the like arising out of or related to
any IP Claim covered under this Section 7.2; provided, however, that the
foregoing indemnity and defense obligation is conditioned on each of the
following: (i) prompt written notice by SMART to WATCHGUARD of

                                     -10-
<PAGE>

any IP Claim for which indemnity is claimed hereunder, (ii) complete control of
the defense and settlement thereof by WATCHGUARD, and (iii) complete cooperation
by SMART in such defense at WATCHGUARD's expense. WATCHGUARD shall have no
obligation whatsoever pursuant to this Section 7.2 for any settlement entered
into without the prior written consent of an authorized representative of
WATCHGUARD. Notwithstanding the foregoing, SMART may defend and/or settle any IP
Claim for which WATCHGUARD materially fails to perform its indemnity obligation
under this Section 7.2 without adversely affecting SMART's indemnity rights
under this Section 7.2.

     7.3   Injunctive Actions.  If during the course of any IP Claim that SMART
is required to indemnify WATCHGUARD hereunder the use or sale of the Product is
finally enjoined, SMART shall, at SMART's option and expense, use commercially
reasonable efforts to do one of the following (in addition to its obligations
under Section 7.1 herein): (i) procure for WATCHGUARD the right to use or sell,
as applicable, the Product, (ii) replace the Product or the affected part
thereof with equivalent non-infringing technology, (iii) modify the Product or
the affected part thereof to make it non-infringing but equivalent, or (iv)
within thirty (30) calendar days of SMART's receipt of said Product, refund to
WATCHGUARD an amount equal to the price paid by WATCHGUARD for said Product less
any prior discounts or credits granted to WATCHGUARD and less an allowance for
use and obsolescence (computed by amortizing WATCHGUARD's purchase price for
said Product evenly over a five (5) year period commencing upon the shipping
date from SMART to WATCHGUARD of said Product) and damage, if any.

     7.4   Limitation of Indemnity.  THE INDEMNITY CONTAINED IN THIS SECTION 7
STATES THE ENTIRE LIABILITY OF EITHER PARTY TO THE OTHER WITH RESPECT TO ANY AND
ALL MISAPPROPRIATION OR INFRINGEMENT BY THE PRODUCT, OR ANY PARTS THEREOF, OF

INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS OF ANY THIRD PARTY AND IS EXPRESSLY IN LIEU OF ALL
WARRANTIES OR REPRESENTATIONS, EXPRESS, IMPLIED, STATUTORY OR OTHERWISE, IN
REGARD THERETO.  THE REMEDIES OF THE PARTIES SHALL BE LIMITED TO THOSE PROVIDED

and warrants to the other that it is entering into this Agreement based on the
terms and conditions contained herein and that it is not entering into this
Agreement because of other terms and conditions, including without limitation
representations, covenants, inducements and promises, not contained herein.

     10.2   Conflicting Terms.  The parties hereto agree that the terms and
conditions contained in either party's printed or electronic documents shall not
apply to the purchase and/or sale of the Product and that the terms and
conditions set forth herein shall govern all such transactions; provided,
however, that the terms and conditions typed or hand written on the face of a
purchase order, acknowledgment or other document relating to the Product
quantities, prices, ship-to locations and

transactions and shall augment the terms and conditions set forth herein to the
extent that such terms and conditions are not inconsistent with this Agreement.

     10.3   Force Majeure.  Other than the obligation to pay any amount owed
hereunder, neither party hereto shall be in default or liable for any delay or
failure to comply with this Agreement if such delay or failure is due to causes
beyond its control for the shorter of the period such causes are beyond its
control or six (6) months, provided that such party notifies in writing the
other party of the existence of such causes.

     10.4   Assignment and Delegation.  Neither party hereto shall sell,
transfer or assign any of its rights hereunder (other than the right to receive
payments), or delegate or subcontract any of its obligations hereunder without
the prior written consent of an authorized representative of the other party;
provided, however, that upon written notice to the other party either party
hereto may sell, transfer or assign its rights hereunder, and delegate or
subcontract its obligations hereunder, without obtaining the prior written
consent of an authorized representative of the other party, to a successor to
its business by reason of merger, the sale of substantially all of its assets or
other form of acquisition, provided that such assignee agrees in writing to be
bound by this Agreement.  Any act in derogation of the foregoing shall be null

     10.8   Severability.  If any term or provision of this Agreement is held to
be illegal, invalid, unenforceable or in conflict with any law of any
governmental entity with jurisdiction over this Agreement, this Agreement shall
continue in force and be interpreted and modified as necessary to give best
effect to the intentions of the parties as expressed herein to the fullest

omission to exercise any right, power or remedy accruing to any party upon any
breach or default of the other party under this Agreement shall impair any such
right, power or remedy, nor shall it be construed to be a waiver of any such
breach or default, or any acquiescence therein, or of any similar breach or
default thereafter occurring; nor shall any waiver of any single breach or
default be deemed a waiver of any other breach or default theretofore or
thereafter occurring.  The parties further agree that any waiver, permit,
consent or approval of any kind or character of any breach or default under this
Agreement must be in a writing signed by an authorized representative of the
party against whom enforcement is sought and shall be effective only to the

    .  Design Review 6

     After the prototype Products are delivered, SMART will provide ongoing
Engineering Development and Support of the Product as may be reasonably
requested by WATCHGUARD.  For such work exceeding six (6) weeks' effort, SMART
may provide a scheduled statement of work for such Engineering Development and
Support, which will be negotiated by both parties.

     For all Engineering work completed by SMART, there will be a set of
Documentation Deliverables to WATCHGUARD which fully and accurately describe the
Product and include, as appropriate:

     1.  Schematic Drawings.

     2.  Printed Circuit Board Layout in Gerber format.

     3.  Surface mount device placement in ASCII format.

     4.  Bill of Materials: components, quantity and source.

     5.  Product Verification Test Reports (Design/Prototype/Product test
results).

     6.  Summary Manufacturing Test Procedures.

     These deliverables are subject to WATCHGUARD review and acceptance, which
will not be unreasonably withheld.

     SMART will cooperate with WATCHGUARD and its industrial design firms and
product assemblers (the "Project Contributors") and coordinate SMART's
development and supply activities under this Agreement with the work performed
by the Project Contributors.

     Quantity of Products Purchased*                 Product price per unit
     -------------------------------                 ----------------------
                                                 
             10,000 or more                                   [ * ]


     * In the event that WATCHGUARD purchases fewer than ten thousand (10,000)
units of Product by July 1, 1999, SMART may charge WATCHGUARD a restocking fee
("Restocking Fee") that shall be computed as follows:

     [ * ]

     WATCHGUARD shall pay SMART the Restocking Fee in U.S. dollars within thirty
(30) calendar days of invoice therefor.

     1.  As used in this Agreement, "Product Lot Size Quantities" means the
number of units ordered for a specific shipment date on any purchase order.
Product Lot Size Quantities greater than or equal to 250 units shall not incur a
manufacturing setup charge.  Product Lot Sizes Quantities less than 250 units
shall incur a manufacturing setup charge of [ * ] per lot.  The minimum Product
Lot Size Quantity shall be 50 units.

     2.  The above Product prices per unit are based on estimated April 1, 1998
market costs of the Microprocessor, PCI chipset, Flash memory, DRAM and Ethernet
chipset used in the assembly of the Product (collectively the "Components").  If
at any time during the term of this Agreement the aggregate market cost of the
Components increases or decreases greater than ten percent (10%), then, at
either party's request, the Product prices per unit shall be reviewed at the
beginning of each calendar quarter starting July 1, 1998, and adjusted by the
parties in good faith to reflect the change in the cost of the Product.  If the
parties mutually agree upon a modification of the Product prices, this Exhibit C
shall be amended to reflect such modified Product prices.
