There is no official way, but I've been saving ICC profiles from the Adobe apps 
for quite some time now.  You can get the source code for the After Effects 
plug-in here:

Look for OpenEXR_iccProfileAttribute.cpp.  It's pretty straight forward: I just 
copy the profile into the EXR uncompressed.

I also extract chromaticities from the ICC profile to store in the standard 
attributes.  On read, I create an ICC profile from chromaticities to pass off 
to the Adobe apps.  That stuff is in FrameSeq_Color.cpp.
