                         AMERICAN REPROGRAPHICS COMPANY

                                 2005 STOCK PLAN

                             STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT
              (INCENTIVE STOCK OPTION OR NONSTATUTORY STOCK OPTION)

      Pursuant to your Stock Option Grant Notice ("GRANT NOTICE") and this Stock
Option Agreement, American Reprographics Company (the "COMPANY") has granted you
an option under its 2005 Stock Plan (the "PLAN") to purchase the number of
shares of the Company's Common Stock indicated in your Grant Notice at the
exercise price indicated in your Grant Notice. Defined terms not explicitly
defined in this Stock Option Agreement but defined in the Plan shall have the
same definitions as in the Plan.

      The details of your option are as follows:

      1. VESTING. Subject to the limitations contained herein, your option will
vest as provided in your Grant Notice, provided that vesting will cease upon the
termination of your Continuous Service.

      2. NUMBER OF SHARES AND EXERCISE PRICE. The number of shares of Common
Stock subject to your option and your exercise price per share referenced in
your Grant Notice may be adjusted from time to time for Capitalization
Adjustments.

      3. METHOD OF PAYMENT. Payment of the exercise price is due in full upon
exercise of all or any part of your option. You may elect to make payment of the
exercise price in cash or by check or in any other manner PERMITTED BY YOUR
GRANT NOTICE, which may include one or more of the following:

            (a) In the Company's sole discretion at the time your option is
exercised and provided that at the time of exercise the Common Stock is publicly
traded and quoted regularly in The Wall Street Journal, pursuant to a program
developed under Regulation T as promulgated by the Federal Reserve Board that,
prior to the issuance of Common Stock, results in either the receipt of cash (or
check) by the Company or the receipt of irrevocable instructions to pay the
aggregate exercise price to the Company from the sales proceeds.

            (b) Provided that at the time of exercise the Common Stock is
publicly traded and quoted regularly in The Wall Street Journal, by delivery of
already-owned shares of Common Stock either that you have held for the period
required to avoid a charge to the Company's reported earnings (generally six (6)
months) or that you did not acquire, directly or indirectly from the Company,
that are owned free and clear of any liens, claims, encumbrances or security
interests, and that are valued at Fair Market Value on the date of exercise.
"Delivery" for these purposes, in the sole discretion of the Company at the time
you exercise your option, shall include delivery to the Company of your
attestation of ownership of such shares of Common Stock in a form approved by
the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, you may not exercise your option by
tender to the Company of Common Stock to the extent such tender would violate
the provisions of any law, regulation or agreement restricting the redemption of
the Company's stock.

<PAGE>

      4. WHOLE SHARES. You may exercise your option only for whole shares of
Common Stock.

      5. SECURITIES LAW COMPLIANCE. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained herein, you may not exercise your option unless the shares of Common
Stock issuable upon such exercise are then registered under the Securities Act
or, if such shares of Common Stock are not then so registered, the Company has
determined that such exercise and issuance would be exempt from the registration
requirements of the Securities Act. The exercise of your option also must comply
with other applicable laws and regulations governing your option, and you may
not exercise your option if the Company determines that such exercise would not
be in material compliance with such laws and regulations.

      6. TERM. You may not exercise your option before the commencement of its
term or after its term expires. The term of your option commences on the Date of
Grant and expires upon the earliest of the following:

            (a) three (3) months after the termination of your Continuous
Service for any reason other than Cause, Disability or death, provided that if
during any part of such three (3) month period you may not exercise your option
solely because of the condition set forth in the preceding paragraph relating to
"Securities Law Compliance," your option shall not expire until the earlier of
the Expiration Date or until it shall have been exercisable for an aggregate
period of three (3) months after the termination of your Continuous Service;

            (b) twelve (12) months after the termination of your Continuous
Service due to your Disability;

            (c) eighteen (18) months after your death if you die either during
your Continuous Service or within three (3) months after your Continuous Service
terminates;

            (d) immediately upon the termination of your Continuous Service if
for Cause;

            (e) the Expiration Date indicated in your Grant Notice; or

            (f) the day before the tenth (10th) anniversary of the Date of
Grant.

      If your option is an Incentive Stock Option, in order to obtain the
federal income tax advantages associated with an Incentive Stock Option, the
Code requires that at all times beginning on the date of grant of your option
and ending on the day three (3) months before the date of your option's
exercise, you must be an employee of the Company or an Affiliate, except in the
event of your death or your permanent and total disability, as defined in
Section 22(e) of the Code. The Company has provided for extended exercisability
of your option under certain circumstances for your benefit but cannot guarantee
that your option will necessarily be treated as an Incentive Stock Option if you
continue to provide services to the Company or an Affiliate as a Consultant or
Director after your employment terminates or if you otherwise exercise your
option more than three (3) months after the date your employment with the
Company or an Affiliate terminates.

      7. EXERCISE.

            (a) You may exercise the vested portion of your option during its
term by delivering a Notice of Exercise (in a form designated by the Company)
together with the exercise price to the Secretary of the Company, or to such
other person as the Company may designate, during regular business hours,
together with such additional documents as the Company may then require.

            (b) By exercising your option you agree that, as a condition to any
exercise of your option, the Company may require you to enter into an
arrangement providing for the payment by you to the Company of any tax
withholding obligation of the Company arising by reason of (1) the exercise of
your option, (2) the lapse of any substantial risk of forfeiture to which the
shares of Common Stock are subject at the time of exercise, or (3) the
disposition of shares of Common Stock acquired upon such exercise.

            (c) If your option is an Incentive Stock Option, by exercising your
option you agree that you will notify the Company in writing within fifteen (15)
days after the date of any disposition of any of the shares of the Common Stock
issued upon exercise of your option that occurs within two (2) years after the
date of your option grant or within one (1) year after such shares of Common
Stock are transferred upon exercise of your option.

            (d) By exercising your option you agree that the Company (or a
representative of the underwriter(s)) may, in connection with the first
underwritten registration of the offering of any securities of the Company under
the Securities Act, require that you not sell, dispose of, transfer, make any
short sale of, grant any option for the purchase of, or enter into any hedging
or similar transaction with the same economic effect as a sale, any shares of
Common Stock or other securities of the Company held by you, for a period of
time specified by the underwriter(s) (not to exceed one hundred eighty (180)
days) following the effective date of the registration statement of the Company
filed under the Securities Act. You further agree to execute and deliver such
other agreements as may be reasonably requested by the Company and/or the
underwriter(s) that are consistent with the foregoing or that are necessary to
give further effect thereto. In order to enforce the foregoing covenant, the
Company may impose stop transfer instructions with respect to your shares of
Common Stock until the end of such period.

      8. TRANSFERABILITY.

            (a) If your option is an Incentive Stock Option, your option is not
transferable, except by will or by the laws of descent and distribution, and is
exercisable during your life only by you. Notwithstanding the foregoing, by
delivering written notice to the Company, in a form satisfactory to the Company,
you may designate a third party who, in the event of your death, shall
thereafter be entitled to exercise your option.

            (b) If your option is a Nonstatutory Stock Option, your option is
not transferable, except (i) by will or by the laws of descent and distribution,
(ii) with the prior written approval of the Company, by instrument to an inter
vivos or testamentary trust, in a form accepted by the Company, in which the
option is to be passed to beneficiaries upon the death of

                                        3
<PAGE>

the trustor (settlor) and (iii) with the prior written approval of the Company,
by gift, in a form accepted by the Company, to a permitted transferee under Rule
701 of the Securities Act.

      9. OPTION NOT A SERVICE CONTRACT. Your option is not an employment or
service contract, and nothing in your option shall be deemed to create in any
way whatsoever any obligation on your part to continue in the employ of the
Company or an Affiliate, or of the Company or an Affiliate to continue your
employment. In addition, nothing in your option shall obligate the Company or an
Affiliate, their respective stockholders, Boards of Directors, Officers or
Employees to continue any relationship that you might have as a Director or
Consultant for the Company or an Affiliate.

      10. WITHHOLDING OBLIGATIONS.

            (a) At the time you exercise your option, in whole or in part, or at
any time thereafter as requested by the Company, you hereby authorize
withholding from payroll and any other amounts payable to you, and otherwise
agree to make adequate provision as instructed by the Company (including by
means of a "cashless exercise" pursuant to a program developed under Regulation
T as promulgated by the Federal Reserve Board to the extent instructed by the
Company), for any sums required to satisfy the federal, state, local and foreign
tax withholding obligations of the Company or an Affiliate, if any, which arise
in connection with the exercise of your option.

            (b) The Company may, in its sole discretion, and in compliance with
any applicable legal conditions or restrictions, withhold from fully vested
shares of Common Stock otherwise issuable to you upon the exercise of your
option a number of whole shares of Common Stock having a Fair Market Value,
determined by the Company as of the date of exercise, not in excess of the
minimum amount of tax required to be withheld by law (or such lower amount as
may be necessary to avoid variable award accounting). Any adverse consequences
to you arising in connection with such share withholding procedure shall be your
sole responsibility.

            (c) You may not exercise your option unless the tax withholding
obligations of the Company and/or any Affiliate are satisfied. Accordingly, you
may not be able to exercise your option when desired even though your option is
vested, and the Company shall have no obligation to issue a certificate for such
shares of Common Stock or release such shares of Common Stock from any escrow
provided for herein unless such obligations are satisfied.

      11. NOTICES. Any notices provided for in your option or the Plan shall be
given in writing and shall be deemed effectively given upon receipt or, in the
case of notices delivered by mail by the Company to you, five (5) days after
deposit in the United States mail, postage prepaid, addressed to you at the last
address you provided to the Company.

      12. GOVERNING PLAN DOCUMENT. Your option is subject to all the provisions
of the Plan, the provisions of which are hereby made a part of your option, and
is further subject to all interpretations, amendments, rules and regulations,
which may from time to time be promulgated and adopted pursuant to the Plan. In
the event of any conflict between the provisions of your option and those of the
Plan, the provisions of the Plan shall control.

exercised and provided that at the time of exercise the Common Stock is publicly

aggregate exercise price to the Company from the sales proceeds.

            (b) Provided that at the time of exercise the Common Stock is
