     THIS SECOND AMENDED AND RESTATED LOAN AGREEMENT (the “Loan Agreement”) will serve to
set forth the terms of the financing transactions by and between CRAFTMADE INTERNATIONAL, INC., a
Delaware corporation (“Borrower”), and THE FROST NATIONAL BANK, a national banking
association (“Lender”). Borrower and Lender entered into that certain Amended and Restated
Loan Agreement dated October 31, 2005 (the “Amended and Restated Loan Agreement”). Lender has
agreed to modify, renew and extend the terms and conditions under the Amended and Restated Loan
Agreement as hereinafter set forth.

          1. Credit Facilities; Interest Rate. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in
this Loan Agreement and the agreements, instruments and documents evidencing, securing, governing,
guaranteeing and/or pertaining to the Loans, as hereinafter defined (collectively, together with
the Loan Agreement, referred to hereinafter as the “Loan Documents”), Lender hereby agrees
to provide to Borrower the credit facility or facilities hereinbelow (whether one or more, the
“Credit Facilities”):

     (a) Borrowing Base Line of Credit. Subject to the terms and conditions set
forth herein, Lender agrees to lend to Borrower, on a revolving basis from time to time
during the period commencing on the date hereof and continuing through the maturity date of
the promissory note evidencing this Credit Facility from time to time, such amounts as
Borrower may request hereunder; provided, however, the total principal
amount outstanding at any time shall not exceed the lesser of (i) an amount equal to the
Borrowing Base (as such term is defined hereinbelow), or (ii) $30,000,000.00 (the
“Borrowing Base Line of Credit”). If at any time the aggregate principal amount
outstanding under the Borrowing Base Line of Credit shall exceed an amount equal to the
Borrowing Base (as such term is defined hereinbelow), Borrower agrees to immediately repay
to Lender such excess amount, plus all accrued but unpaid interest thereon. Subject to the
terms and conditions hereof, Borrower may borrow, repay and reborrow hereunder. The sums
advanced under the Borrowing Base Line of Credit shall be used for working capital and other
general corporate purposes.

As used in this Loan Agreement, the term “Borrowing Base” shall have the meaning set
forth hereinbelow:

An amount equal to 80% of the Borrower’s Eligible Accounts, plus 55% of the Borrower’s
Eligible Inventory; provided, however, the outstanding amount advanced

 

 

against Eligible Inventory at any time shall not exceed 50% of total outstanding advances
under the Borrowing Base Line of Credit.

As used herein, the term “Eligible Accounts” shall mean at any time, an amount equal
to the aggregate net invoice or ledger amount owing on all trade accounts receivable of
Borrower and any Affiliates for goods sold or leased or services rendered in the ordinary
course of business, in which the Lender has a perfected, first priority lien, after
deducting (without duplication): (i) each such account that is unpaid 60 days or more after
the original invoice date thereof, or, in the case of Lowe’s, 90 days or more after the
original invoice date thereof, (ii) the amount of all discounts, allowances, rebates,
credits and adjustments to such accounts (iii) the amount of all contra accounts, setoffs,
defenses or counterclaims asserted by or available to the account debtors, (iv) all accounts
with respect to which goods are placed on consignment or subject to a guaranteed sale or
other terms by reason of which payment by the account debtor may be conditional, (v) all
accounts with respect to which a payment and/or performance bond has been furnished and that
portion of any account for or representing retainage, if any, until all prerequisites to the
immediate payment of retainage have been satisfied, (vi) all accounts owing by account
debtors for which there has been instituted a proceeding in bankruptcy or reorganization
under the United States Bankruptcy Code or other law, whether state or federal, now or
hereafter existing for relief of debtors, (vii) all accounts owing by any Affiliates; (viii)
all accounts in which the account debtor is the United States or any department, agency or
instrumentality of the United States, except to the extent an acknowledgment of assignment
to Lender of such account in compliance with the Federal Assignment of Claims Act and other
applicable laws has been received by Lender, (ix) all accounts due by any account debtor
whose principal place of business is located outside the United States of America and its
territories, (x) all accounts subject to any provision prohibiting assignment or requiring
notice of or consent to such assignment, (xi) that portion of all account balances owing by
any single account debtor which exceeds 25% of the aggregate of all accounts otherwise
deemed eligible hereunder which are owing by all account debtors, other than Lowe’s, and
(xii) any other accounts deemed unacceptable by Lender in its sole and absolute discretion;
provided, however, if more than 20% of the then balance owing by any single account debtor
does not qualify as an Eligible Account under the foregoing provisions, then the aggregate
amount of all accounts owing by such account debtor shall be excluded from Eligible
Accounts.

As used herein, the term “Eligible Inventory” shall mean as of any date, the
aggregate value of all inventory of raw materials and finished goods (excluding work in
progress and packaging materials, supplies and any advertising costs capitalized into
inventory) then owned by Borrower and any Affiliates and held for sale, lease or other
disposition in the ordinary course of its business, in which Lender has a first priority
lien, excluding (i) inventory which is damaged, defective, obsolete or otherwise unsaleable
in the ordinary course of business, (ii) inventory which has been returned or rejected, and
(iii) inventory subject to any consignment arrangement with any other person or entity. For
purposes of
this definition, Eligible Inventory shall be valued at the lower of cost (excluding the cost
of labor) or market value.

2

 

All advances under the Credit Facilities shall be collectively called the “Loans”.
Lender reserves the right to require Borrower to give Lender not less than one (1) business
day prior notice of each requested advance under the Credit Facilities, specifying (i) the
aggregate amount of such requested advance, (ii) the requested date of such advance, and
(iii) the purpose of such advance, with such advances to be requested in a form satisfactory
to Lender.

     (b) Interest Rate. The interest to be paid by Borrower and collected by Lender
shall be:

     The lesser of (a) a rate equal to LIBOR (as defined below) plus one and one-half
(1.50%) per annum or (b) the highest rate permitted by applicable law, but in no event shall
interest contracted for, charged or received hereunder plus any other charges in connection
herewith which constitute interest exceed the maximum interest permitted by applicable law.

     For purposes of this provision, the following terms having the meanings shown below:

     “LIBOR” means, for any date, the Wall Street Journal London Interbank Offered
Rate (as defined below) in effect on the 1st day of each calendar month and which will apply
from the first day of the then current calendar month to the last day of the then current
calendar month.

     “Wall Street Journal London Interbank Offered Rate” means the London Interbank
Offered Rate (LIBOR) for one month quoted in the most recently published issue of The
Wall Street Journal (Central Edition) in the “Money Rates” column, as adjusted from time
to time in Lender’s reasonable discretion for then applicable reserve requirements,
deposit insurance assessment rates and other regulatory costs. If the Wall Street
Journal London Interbank Offered Rate ceases to be made available by the publisher, or any
successor to the publisher of The Wall Street Journal (Central Edition) the interest
rate will be determined by using a comparable index as determined by Lender in its sole
discretion. If more than one Wall Street Journal London Interbank Offered Rate for one
month is quoted, the higher rate shall apply. The Wall Street Journal London Interbank
Offered Rate is a reference rate and does not necessarily represent the lowest or best rate
actually charged to any customer.

     (c) Increased Cost. If any governmental agency, court, central bank or
comparable authority shall impose any taxation, required level of reserves (except reserve
requirements for certificates of deposit), deposits, insurance or capital, or similar
requirements against assets, deposits or credit extended by Lender or shall impose on Lender
or the eurodollar market any other condition affecting advances, and the result of the
foregoing is to increase the cost of Lender making or maintaining advances or reduce any
sums received or receivable by Lender under this Loan Agreement or the Notes by a
material amount as determined by Lender in its sole discretion, then Borrower shall
reimburse Lender for such increased costs or reduced sums upon demand. Nothing

3

 

herein will
be construed to require Borrower to pay any interest, fees, costs or charges greater than
the highest rate permitted by law.

          2. Promissory Notes. The Loans shall be evidenced by one or more promissory notes
(whether one or more, together with any renewals, extensions and increases thereof, the
“Notes”) duly executed by Borrower and payable to the order of Lender, in form and
substance acceptable to Lender. Interest on the Notes shall accrue at the rate set forth herein.
The principal of and interest on the Notes shall be due and payable in accordance with the terms
and conditions set forth in the Notes and in this Loan Agreement.

          3. Collateral. As collateral and security for the indebtedness evidenced by the Notes
and any and all other indebtedness or obligations from time to time owing by Borrower to Lender,
Borrower, Trade Source International, Inc., Durocraft International, Inc., Design Trends, LLC, and
Prime/Home Impressions, LLC (together hereinafter referred to as “Pledgors”) shall grant,
and hereby grants, to Lender, its successors and assigns, a first and prior lien and security
interest in and to the personal property described hereinbelow, wherever located, and now owned or
hereafter acquired (the “Collateral”):

	 	(a)	 	All “accounts”, as defined in the Texas Business and Commerce Code as in effect
in the State of Texas on the date of this Loan Agreement or as it may hereafter be
amended from time to time (the “Code”) (including health-care-insurance
receivables), together with any and all books of account, customer lists and other
records relating in any way to the foregoing (including, without limitation, computer
software, whether on tape, disk, card, strip, cartridge or any other form), and in any
case where an account arises from the sale of goods, the interest of Pledgors in such
goods.
	 
	 	(b)	 	All “inventory” as defined in the Code, and all records relating in any way to
the foregoing (including, without limitation, any computer software, whether on tape,
disk, card, strip, cartridge or any other form).

          The term Collateral, as used herein, shall also include all PRODUCTS and PROCEEDS of all of
the foregoing (including without limitation, insurance payable by reason of loss or damage to the
foregoing property) and any property, securities, guaranties or monies of Pledgors which may at any
time come into the possession of Secured Party. The designation of proceeds does not authorize
Pledgors to sell, transfer or otherwise convey any of the foregoing property except finished goods
intended for sale in the ordinary course of Pledgor’s business or as otherwise provided herein.
Pledgors shall execute such security agreements, assignments, deeds of trust and other agreements
and documents as Lender shall deem appropriate and otherwise require from time to time to more
fully create and perfect Lender’s lien and security interests in the Collateral.

          4. Guarantors. As a condition precedent to the Lender’s obligation to make the Loans

Durocraft International, Inc., a Texas corporation, Design Trends, LLC, a Delaware limited
liability company, Prime/Home Impressions, LLC, a North Carolina limited liability

4

 

company, and
C/D/R Incorporated, a Delaware corporation (whether one or more, the “Guarantors”) to each
execute and deliver to Lender contemporaneously herewith a guaranty agreement, in form and
substance satisfactory to Lender.

          5. Representations and Warranties. Borrower hereby represents and warrants, and upon
each request for an advance under the Credit Facilities further represents and warrants, to Lender

Documents.

     (b) Binding Obligations. The execution, delivery, and performance of this Loan
Agreement and all of the other Loan Documents by Borrower have been duly authorized by all
necessary action by Borrower, and constitute legal, valid and binding obligations of

Bankruptcy, insolvency or similar laws of general application relating to the enforcement of
creditors’ rights and except to the extent specific remedies may generally be limited by
equitable principles.

     (c) No Consent. The execution, delivery and performance of this Loan Agreement
and the other Loan Documents, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby
and thereby, do not (i) conflict with, result in a violation of, or constitute a default

Borrower is a corporation, or its partnership agreement, if Borrower is a partnership, or

regulation, court decree or order applicable to Borrower, or (ii) require the consent,
approval or authorization of any third party.

statement supplied to Lender.

     (e) Litigation. There are no actions, suits or proceedings, pending or, to the
knowledge of Borrower, threatened against or affecting Borrower or the properties of

material amount of additional taxes in excess of those paid and reported is not reasonably
expected.

correct, as of and as if made on such date, (ii) no material adverse change in the financial
condition of Borrower since the effective date of the most recent financial statements furnished to
Lender by Borrower shall have occurred and be continuing, (iii) no event has occurred and is

unpaid, might become a lien or charge upon any of Borrower’s properties, income, or profits;
provided, however, Borrower will not be required to pay and

6

 

discharge any such assessment,
tax, charge, levy, lien or claim so long as (i) the legality of the same shall be contested
in good faith by appropriate judicial, administrative or other legal proceedings, and (ii)

other Loan Documents may also be exercised by Lender, at its option to be exercised in its sole
discretion, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default.

11

 

          13. Rights Cumulative. All rights of Lender under the terms of this Loan Agreement
shall be cumulative of, and in addition to, the rights of Lender under any and all other agreements
between Borrower and Lender (including, but not limited to, the other Loan Documents), and not in
substitution or diminution of any rights now or hereafter held by Lender under the terms of any
other agreement.

          14. Waiver and Agreement. Neither the failure nor any delay on the part of Lender to
exercise any right, power or privilege herein or under any of the other Loan Documents shall
operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of such right, power or
privilege preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power
or privilege. No waiver of any provision in this Loan Agreement or in any of the other Loan
Documents and no departure by Borrower therefrom shall be effective unless the same shall be in
writing and signed by Lender, and then shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the
purpose for which given and to the extent specified in such writing. No modification or amendment
to this Loan Agreement or to any of the other Loan Documents shall be valid or effective unless the

Exhibit 10.2

REVOLVING PROMISSORY NOTE

			
	 	 	 
	$30,000,000.00
	 	September 18, 2006

     For value received, CRAFTMADE INTERNATIONAL, INC., a Delaware corporation (“Borrower”,
whether one or more) does hereby promise to pay to the order of THE FROST NATIONAL BANK
(“Lender”), at P.O. Box 1600, San Antonio, Texas 78296, or at such other address as Lender
shall from time to time specify in writing, in lawful money of the United States of America, the
sum of THIRTY MILLION AND NO/100 DOLLARS ($30,000,000.00), or so much thereof as from time to time
may be disbursed by Lender to Borrower under the terms of that certain Second Amended and Restated
Loan Agreement dated of even date herewith between Borrower and Lender (the “Loan
Agreement”), and be outstanding, together with interest from date hereof on the principal
balance outstanding from time to time as hereinafter provided. Interest shall be computed on a per
annum basis of a year of 360 days and for the actual number of days elapsed, unless such
calculation would result in a rate greater than the highest rate permitted by applicable law, in
which case interest shall be computed on a per annum basis of a year of 365 days or 366 days in a
leap year, as the case may be.

     1. Payment Terms. Interest only on amounts outstanding hereunder shall be due and
payable monthly as it accrues, on the first day of each and every calendar month, beginning
September 1, 2006, and continuing regularly and monthly thereafter until September 1, 2009, when
the entire amount hereof, principal and interest then remaining unpaid, shall be then due and
payable; interest being calculated on the unpaid principal each day principal is outstanding and
all payments made credited to any collection costs and late charges, to the discharge of the
interest accrued and to the reduction of the principal, in such order as Lender shall determine.

     2. Late Charge. If a payment is made 10 days or more late, Borrower will be charged,
in addition to interest, a delinquency charge of (i) 5% of the unpaid portion of the regularly
scheduled payment, or (ii) $250.00, whichever is less. Additionally, upon maturity of this Note,
if the outstanding principal balance (plus all accrued but unpaid interest) is not paid within 10
days of the maturity date, Borrower will be charged a delinquency charge of (i) 5% of the sum of
the outstanding principal balance (plus all accrued but unpaid interest), or (ii) $250.00,
whichever is less. Borrower agrees with Lender that the charges set forth herein are reasonable
compensation to Lender for the handling of such late payments.

     3. Interest Rate. Interest on the outstanding and unpaid principal balance hereof
will be computed at a per annum rate as provided in the Loan Agreement.

     4. Default Rate. Matured unpaid principal and interest shall bear interest from date
of maturity until paid at the highest rate permitted by applicable law, or if no such maximum rate
is established by applicable law, at the rate stated above plus five percent (5%) per annum.

     5. Revolving Line of Credit. Under the Loan Agreement, Borrower may request advances
and make payments hereunder from time to time, provided that it is understood and agreed that the
aggregate principal amount outstanding from time to time hereunder shall not at any time exceed
$30,000,000.00. The unpaid balance of this Note shall increase and decrease
with

1

 

each new advance or payment hereunder, as the case may be. This Note shall not be deemed
terminated or canceled prior to the date of its maturity, although the entire principal balance
hereof may from time to time be paid in full. Borrower may borrow, repay and re-borrow hereunder.
All payments and prepayments of principal or interest on this Note shall be made in lawful money of
the United States of America in immediately available funds, at the address of Lender indicated
above, or such other place as the holder of this Note shall designate in writing to Borrower. If
any payment of principal or interest on this Note shall become due on a day which is not a Business
Day (as hereinafter defined), such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day and
any such extension of time shall be included in computing interest in connection with such payment.
As used herein, the term “Business Day” shall mean any day other than a Saturday, Sunday
or any other day on which national banking associations are authorized to be closed. The books and
records of Lender shall be prima facie evidence of all outstanding principal of and accrued and
unpaid interest on this Note.

     6. Prepayment. Borrower reserves the right to prepay, prior to maturity, all or any
part of the principal of this Note without penalty. Any prepayments shall be applied first to
accrued interest and then to principal. Borrower will provide written notice to the holder of this
Note of any such prepayment of all or any part of the principal at the time thereof. All payments
and prepayments of principal or interest on this Note shall be made in lawful money of the United
States of America in immediately available funds, at the address of Lender indicated above, or such
other place as the holder of this Note shall designate in writing to Borrower. All partial
prepayments of principal shall be applied to the last installments payable in their inverse order
of maturity.

     7. Default. It is expressly provided that upon default in the punctual payment of
this Note or any part hereof, principal or interest, as the same shall become due and payable, or
upon the occurrence of an event of default specified in any of the other Loan Documents (as defined
below), the holder of this Note may, at its option, without further notice or demand, (i) declare
the outstanding principal balance of and accrued but unpaid interest on this Note at once due and
payable, (ii) refuse to advance any additional amounts under this Note, (iii) foreclose all liens
securing payment hereof, (iv) pursue any and all other rights, remedies and recourses available to
the holder hereof, including but not limited to any such rights, remedies or recourses under the
Loan Documents, at law or in equity, or (v) pursue any combination of the foregoing; and in the
event default is made in the prompt payment of this Note when due or declared due, and the same is
placed in the hands of an attorney for collection, or suit is brought on same, or the same is
collected through probate, bankruptcy or other judicial proceedings, then the Borrower agrees and
promises to pay all costs of collection, including reasonable attorney’s fees.

     8. No Usury Intended; Usury Savings Clause. In no event shall interest contracted
for, charged or received hereunder, plus any other charges in connection herewith which constitute
interest, exceed the maximum interest permitted by applicable law. The amounts of such interest or
other charges previously paid to the holder of the Note in excess of the amounts permitted by
applicable law shall be applied by the holder of the Note to reduce the principal of the
indebtedness evidenced by the Note, or, at the option of the holder of the Note, be refunded. To
the extent permitted by applicable law, determination of the legal maximum amount of interest shall
at all times be made by amortizing, prorating, allocating and spreading in equal parts during the
period of the full stated term of the loan and indebtedness, all interest at any time contracted
for, charged or received from the Borrower hereof in connection with the loan and indebtedness
evidenced hereby, so that the actual rate of interest on account of such indebtedness is uniform
throughout the term hereof.

hereof, as well as all heirs, successors and legal representatives of said parties, shall be
directly and primarily, jointly and severally, liable for the payment of all indebtedness
hereunder. Lender may release or modify the obligations of any of the foregoing persons or
entities, or guarantors hereof, in connection with this loan without affecting the obligations of
the others. All such persons or entities expressly waive presentment and demand for payment,
notice of default, notice of intent to accelerate maturity, notice of acceleration of maturity,
protest, notice of protest, notice of dishonor, and all other notices and demands for which waiver
is not prohibited by law, and diligence in the collection hereof; and agree to all renewals,
extensions, indulgences, partial payments, releases or exchanges of collateral, or taking of
additional collateral, with or without notice, before or after maturity. No delay or omission of
Lender in exercising any right hereunder shall be a waiver of such right or any other right under
this Note.

     11. Texas Finance Code. In no event shall Chapter 346 of the Texas Finance Code
(which regulates certain revolving loan accounts and revolving tri-party accounts) apply to this
Note. To the extent that Chapter 303 of the Texas Finance Code is applicable to this Note, the
“weekly ceiling” specified in such article is the applicable ceiling; provided that, if any
applicable law permits greater interest, the law permitting the greatest interest shall apply.

to be performed in the State of Texas. Except to the extent that the laws of the United States may

Note. In the event of a dispute involving

Note or any other instruments executed in connection herewith, the undersigned irrevocably
agrees that venue for such dispute shall lie in any court of competent jurisdiction in Bexar
County, Texas.

     13. Purpose of Loan. Borrower agrees that no advances under this Note shall be used

business operations as Lender may request from time to time. This provision shall not alter the
obligation of Borrower to deliver to Lender any other financial statements or reports pursuant to
the terms of any other loan documents executed in connection with this Note.

     16. Renewal and Extension. This Note is given, in part, in renewal and extension, but
not extinguishment, of all amounts left owing and unpaid on that certain Revolving Promissory Note
