Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On December 13, 2005, OCA, Inc. (OCA) executed an agreement with Jefferies & Company, Inc.
(Jefferies), pursuant to which OCA engaged Jefferies, on an exclusive basis, as its financial
advisor and investment banker to act as sole manager, bookrunner, placement agent, arranger or
initial purchaser, as the case may be, in connection with: (i) the restructuring of OCAs debt
obligations, and (ii) the structuring, issuance, sale or placement on behalf of OCA of new capital
raised from any party, in the form of debt, equity or equity-linked securities, whether in a public
or private transaction, including the refinancing of OCAs existing bank debt.
For its services under this agreement, under certain circumstances, OCA will pay Jefferies a monthly advisory fee of
$100,000, plus reasonable fees, disbursements and expenses, and 50% of this $100,000 monthly fee will be credited against any other restructuring or capital raise fee owed to Jefferies under the agreement. Further, if OCA consummates a
restructuring transaction during the term of the agreement, it will pay Jefferies a restructuring
fee of $1.5 million; and if OCA consummates a capital raise with Jefferies assistance during the
term of the agreement, it will pay Jefferies a capital raise fee equal to 4% of the aggregate gross
equity and/or debt proceeds raised. The term of the agreement is one year from its date of
execution, but may be extended by the parties.
Prior to entering into this agreement, neither OCA nor any of its affiliates had any material
relationships with Jefferies.
