EXIF is not text based, it is mostly binary and relates to camera settings. It does have some options for comments, copyrights, etc.
XMP is always text based (XML).

If this is the case, then all it would take to store them in an OpenEXR file would be a string attribute called, for example, "EXIFdata" or "XMPdata".
