Consider E(x) as a power series that converges for all x:

E(x) = 1 + x/2 + x^2/6 + x^3/24 + ...

Apply this power series to tA:

E(tA) = I + t/2 A + t^2/6 A^2 + t^3/24 A^3 + ...

multiply by t:

t E(tA) = t I + t^2/2 A + t^3/6 A^2 + t^4/24 A^3 + ...

Differentiate with respect to t:

(d/dt) t E(tA) = I + t A + t^2/2 A^2 + t^3/6 A^3 + ...

The fact that A is not invertible does not impede the computation of
of either tE(tA) or its derivative.

So, again, the question is: what is the derivative of tE(tA) with
respect to t?
