Re:     John DeBlois — Separation Agreement and General Release.

Dear John DeBlois:

     This letter sets forth the terms of the Separation Agreement and General Release (“Agreement”) that you have worked out with Craftmade International, Inc. The words “you” and “I” in this agreement refer to you, John DeBlois. “Craftmade” means and is intended to include Craftmade International, Inc., its predecessors, successors, and assigns, and its affiliates Trade Source International, Inc. and Woodard — CM, LLC. The terms “we” and the “parties” include everyone, you and Craftmade. Your employment was with Trade Source International, Inc.

     In partial consideration for Craftmade’s entering into this Agreement, you have agreed to resign from all of your positions with Craftmade and its affiliates effective January 30, 2009 (“Termination Date”). You and Craftmade enter into this Agreement to reflect the Parties’ amicable resolution of all matters related to your employment and the termination thereof, the payment of compensation not otherwise due to you, and the waiver and release of any claims arising out of your at-will employment. Accordingly, you and Craftmade agree as follows:

A.	Separation Payment. In consideration of the mutual promises contained in this Agreement, including specifically the full release of claims as set forth in Paragraph E(i), Craftmade agrees to pay you seven months severance at your base rate of pay of $25,093.46 per month for a total amount of $ $175,654.22. All amounts stated in this Paragraph A are gross amounts, and all lawful and applicable withholdings, including any required income taxes, medicare and social security, will be withheld from these amounts by Craftmade, resulting in you getting a lesser, net amount. (“Separation Payment”).
B.	Manner of Payment. Craftmade will make the Separation Payment by check made payable to John DeBlois and will deliver such separation payment eight (8) days after you have signed and returned this Agreement, without revocation (under Paragraph W), to Ric DeCastro at Craftmade International, Inc., and provided you have returned all Craftmade property in your possession as required by Paragraph L and you are otherwise in compliance with this Agreement. If you are unable to receive the Separation Payment due to your death before the payment of the Separation Payment, Craftmade will deliver the Separation Payment to your spouse, Carol DeBlois, provided that you are in compliance with all the terms of this Agreement at the time of your death. If you and your spouse are both unable to receive the Separation Payment due to both you and your spouse’s deaths prior to the payment of the Separation Payment, Craftmade will pay the Separation Payment to your estate.
C.	Termination of Benefits. All benefits and entitlement to benefits that you enjoyed as an employee of Craftmade shall cease effective as of January 30, 2009. Information
