 <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Our Board has adopted a shareholder rights plan commonly known as a &#147;poison pill,&#148; which will remain in
existence <I>until 2011</I> unless it is earlier redeemed by our Board. This plan is an anti-takeover device that can adversely affect shareholder value by discouraging takeovers that could be beneficial to shareholders. Shareholders were not given

expense of shareholders. While management and the Board should have appropriate tools to ensure that all shareholders benefit from any proposal to buy the Company, <I>we do not believe that the possibility of an unsolicited proposal to buy our
Company justifies the unilateral implementation of such a device.</I> For this reason, we urge the Board to redeem the Company&#146;s poison pill and not to adopt a new one without first seeking shareholder approval. </FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Arthur Levitt, former SEC Chairman, has stated that poison pills &#147;<I>entrench the current management even when it&#146;s doing a poor job.</I> They water down

shareholders to management, on matters pertaining to the sale of the corporation. <I>They give target boards of directors absolute veto power </I>over any proposed business combination, no matter how beneficial it might be for the shareholders&#133;
(emphasis added). </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Investors increasingly favor requiring shareholder approval of poison pills. According to Institutional Shareholder Services, which

hinder the ability of the Board to protect shareholder value in the face of a hostile takeover whereby an acquirer might seek to acquire your Company at a price substantially below its value. This proposal might result in the shareholders getting
less than what the Board could negotiate with adequate takeover defenses in place. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The Board of Directors of the Company received an unsolicited offer
from a wire and cable company during 2006, which the Board carefully considered and rejected as being inadequate, and therefore not in the best interests of the Company&#146;s shareholders. We believe that judgment has proven to be correct. The
proposal by the shareholder states that the offer by that wire and cable company would have provided a significant premium to the Company&#146;s shareholders over the then trading price of the Company&#146;s common shares. While true for a point in
time, the shareholder simply fails to recognize that the unsolicited offer came at a low point in your Company&#146;s trading price&#151;an opportunistic effort by that wire and cable company to purchase your Company at an artificially low price and
take advantage of the volatility of the Company&#146;s stock trading price. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P>

 <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The Company&#146;s Rights Plan is precisely designed to give the Board a necessary tool to help preserve the full
expected value of the Company for its shareholders&#151;rather than allow an opportunistic third party to take that value. Approximately 12 months prior to the unsolicited offer, the Company&#146;s common shares were trading at a price approximately
20% higher than the offer made by that wire and cable company, and recently the Company&#146;s common shares trade at a price close to the unsolicited offer price&#151;an offer which expired some months ago. </FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The same or another company may again attempt to opportunistically take advantage of the fact that the Company&#146;s stock price has such a high degree of volatility.
In other words, a suitor may seek to maximize its return on an acquisition by making an offer that appears to be at a premium, but is in fact artificially low. The Board of Directors would prefer to preserve this value for the Company&#146;s
shareholders and believes the Rights Plan described below provides one mechanism for the Board of Directors to protect this value. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B>Background on
current Rights Plan </B></FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">On November&nbsp;2, 2001, the Board of Directors declared a dividend of one preferred share purchase right (a &#147;Right&#148;)
for each outstanding Common Share. The dividend was payable on November&nbsp;5, 2001 to the shareholders of record on that date. Each Right entitles the registered holder to purchase from the Company one one-thousandth of a Series A Participating
Preferred Share of the Company, no par value (the &#147;Preferred Shares&#148;), at a price of $25 (subject to adjustment as provided in the Rights Agreement) per one one-thousandth of a Preferred Share, subject to adjustment. The description and
terms of the Rights are set forth in a Rights Agreement, as amended (the &#147;Rights Agreement&#148;), between the Company and American Stock Transfer&nbsp;&amp; Trust Company (formerly Wachovia Bank) as Rights Agent. </FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B>The Rights Plan benefits shareholders </B></FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The Board believes the action
requested is ill-advised since it would be unduly restrictive and is contrary to the best interests of the Company&#146;s shareholders. The Company&#146;s Rights Plan is an important tool that enables the Board to maximize shareholder value in the
event of a proposed acquisition of control of the Company. The Board is in the best position to maximize shareholder value because it has more detailed information regarding the Company&#146;s future prospects and true value than is generally
available to shareholders. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The Rights Plan also allows the Board to protect the Company and its shareholders from unfair and coercive takeover tactics,
such as partial or two-tier tender offers, a &#145;creeping acquisition&#146; or other tactics that the Board believes are unfair to the Company&#146;s shareholders. An unsolicited suitor can use these tactics to make it more difficult for the Board
to negotiate the highest possible value for shareholders from such an unsolicited suitor or another potential acquirer, in the event of any sale of the Company. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman"
SIZE="2">The Rights Plan is not intended to prevent a takeover of the Company, nor does the Rights Plan change or diminish the fiduciary obligations of the Company&#146;s Board. The Rights Plan strengthens the ability of the Board, 4 of whose 6
current members are considered independent under current Nasdaq rules, to fulfill its fiduciary duties under Virginia law. The Board has the power to redeem the rights issued under the Rights Plan at any time and thereby remove the impediment to the
completion of an acquisition of the Company. A prospective acquirer seeking to persuade the Board to redeem the rights may propose a higher takeover price, an offer for all shares rather than a partial offer or better takeover terms than would be
proposed if no rights plan were in place. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The Board believes it is in the best position to negotiate on behalf of all shareholders, evaluate the adequacy
of any potential offer, and seek a higher price if there is to be a sale of the Company. In summary, the Rights Plan allows the Board a greater period to evaluate offers, explore other alternatives and take the necessary steps to maximize
shareholder value. Without the protection of the Rights Plan, the Board would lose important bargaining power in negotiating the transaction with a potential acquirer or pursuing a potentially better alternative. </FONT></P> <P

 <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B>Studies focused on rights plans demonstrate that rights plans increase shareholder value </B></FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Merger and acquisition activity over the last ten years shows that rights plans neither prevent unsolicited offers from occurring nor prevent companies from being
acquired at prices that are fair and adequate to shareholders. In fact, a study by J.P. Morgan published in 2001, analyzing 397 acquisitions of U.S. public companies from 1997 to 2000 where the purchase price exceeded $1 billion, found that
companies with rights plans in place received a median premium of 35.9% compared to 31.9% for companies without a rights plan. A study published by Georgeson&nbsp;&amp; Company, a nationally recognized proxy solicitation firm, of takeover premiums
during the period from 1992 to 1996 of 319 takeover transactions over $250 million also concluded that premiums paid to acquire target companies with shareholder rights plans in place at least six months prior to the first bid, were on the average,
about eight percentage points higher than premiums paid for target companies that did not have such plans. In addition, the Georgeson study concluded that the presence of a rights plan did not increase the likelihood of the defeat of a hostile
takeover bid or the withdrawal of a friendly bid and that rights plans did not reduce the likelihood that a company would become a takeover target. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Thus,
empirical evidence suggests that rights plans serve their principal objectives: protection against inadequate offers and abusive tactics; and increased bargaining power resulting in higher value for shareholders. </FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Indeed, many companies with rights plans have received unsolicited takeover proposals and have redeemed their rights after their board of directors concluded that the
offer, as negotiated by such board of directors, adequately reflected the intrinsic value of the company and was fair and equitable to all shareholders. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman"
SIZE="2">Some recent examples of hostile takeovers increasing bids where the target had a rights plan in place include PeopleSoft-Oracle Corporation and Central Pacific Financial Corp-CB Bancshares, Inc. Based on publicly available information,
shareholders eventually received significant increases from the initial offers: </FONT></P> <P STYLE="font-size:12px;margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px">&nbsp;</P>

retirement savings plan for the benefit on an employee can vary from the calendar year limit due to timing of employee contributions during the applicable calendar years and the fact that the plan year is based on a period that does not coincide
with the Company&#146;s fiscal year. The amounts accrued for the Company&#146;s matching contribution at the Company&#146;s fiscal year end are based on the individual participant&#146;s salary deferral elections during the Company&#146;s fiscal

FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The Compensation Committee uses an outside consultant to gather and analyze compensation data in order to establish comparable ranges of base compensation and targeted short- and long-term variable compensation ranges
for similarly situated companies. Compensation data is gathered from proxies for publicly-traded companies in similar industries and/or of a similar size and complexity&#151;a &#147;compensation peer group.&#148; In establishing the compensation
peer group, the Company&#146;s organization size and complexity is taken into account; therefore, the compensation peer group includes certain companies of similar size and complexity whether or not such companies are in the fiber optic cable
industry. Additionally, compensation data is gathered from published compensation surveys of companies of similar size and complexity&#151;which includes data from both publicly-traded and privately-held companies. The compensation data from these
two sources is blended to provide a benchmark used for the purpose of evaluating appropriate compensation ranges for base compensation and targeted short- and long-term variable compensation of key management personnel. Data from published
compensation surveys is more heavily weighted in this analysis because that data reflects a heavier concentration of similarly sized companies. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman"

Mr.&nbsp;Wilkin based on his achievement of specific individual goals. Further, the President and Chief Executive Officer may, at his discretion, increase or decrease the annual bonus (if any) of any other eligible senior staff member by up to 20%
of the amount of the bonus earned by such member based on his or her achievement of specific individual goals. Only the Compensation Committee could increase the aggregate amount payable to all eligible individuals under the 2006 bonus criteria.
Therefore, the aggregate discretionary bonus increases for all eligible senior staff members cannot exceed the aggregate discretionary bonus decreases for all such members without the approval of the Compensation Committee. The maximum award payable
to any individual was 200% of the individual&#146;s target bonus opportunity. At the recommendation of the President and Chief Executive Officer based on lower than expected results compared to the bonus criteria for 2006, the Compensation Committee

the Board of Directors adopted, an <I>Equity Ownership and Retention Policy for the Senior Staff.</I> The policy is applicable to all members of the Company&#146;s management team holding a position of Director or above, including each of the named
executive officers. This policy requires each Senior Staff member to accumulate over a set period and retain, a minimum value of shares of the Company&#146;s common stock, and also to retain minimum percentages of shares of the Company&#146;s common
stock awarded to them under any stock incentive plan. The intention of this policy is to ensure the Senior Staff has wealth at risk in the Company&#146;s common stock, further aligning the interests of the management team with those of the
shareholders. A copy of the <I>Equity Ownership and Retention Policy for the Senior Staff </I>can be found on the Company&#146;s web site at www.occfiber.com. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman"

STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The Company is subject to Section&nbsp;162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code, which imposes a $1 million limit on the amount of compensation that may be
deducted by the Company for a taxable year with respect to each of the Chief Executive Officer and the four most highly compensated executive officers of the Company. Performance-based compensation (such as compensation pursuant to the 1996 and 2005
Stock Incentive Plans), if it meets certain requirements, is not subject to the deduction limit. The Committee has reviewed the impact of Section&nbsp;162(m) on the Company and believes that it is unlikely that the compensation paid to any of the
executive officers during the current fiscal year will be deemed to exceed the limit. Furthermore, the 1996 and 2005 Stock Incentive Plans generally are designed to comply with the requirements of the performance-based compensation exception for the
$1 million limit. The Committee will continue to monitor the impact of the Section&nbsp;162(m) limit on the Company and to assess alternatives for avoiding any loss of tax deductions. </FONT></P> <P

STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">During the year ended October&nbsp;31, 2006, the Company incurred fees associated with consulting services provided by Mr.&nbsp;Holland totaling $54,490
for various engineering projects. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Barbara B. Huybrechts, wife of Luke J. Huybrechts, is an employee of the Company. Her compensation in
fiscal year 2006 was $68,715, plus $1,667 for contributions made by the Company to the Company&#146;s 401(k) retirement savings plan for her benefit. The maximum amount of the employer matching contribution per calendar year per employee is $10,000.
The Company&#146;s contribution to the Company&#146;s 401(k) retirement savings plan for Ms.&nbsp;Huybrechts benefit of $1,667 is based on the expense accrued by the Company during fiscal year 2006, which covers part of both calendar years 2005 and
2006. Amounts expensed in any one fiscal year can vary from the calendar year limit due to timing of employee contributions during the applicable calendar years and the fact that the plan year is based on a period that does not coincide with the
Company&#146;s fiscal year. Amounts accrued for the employer matching contribution at the Company&#146;s fiscal year end are based on the individual participant&#146;s salary deferral elections during the Company&#146;s fiscal year.
Mr.&nbsp;Huybrechts has no supervisory responsibilities with respect to his wife. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:24px;margin-bottom:0px" ALIGN="center"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B>OTHER MATTERS </B></FONT></P> <P
