Rule 3-3-3a
A period must be extended by an untimed down if during the last timed down of the period......(a) there was a foul...and the penalty was accepted.
I'm not sure if the try is considered an "extension" of the period. I still think you have to kickoff if the holding penalty on the defense is accepted. If there was never an accepted live-ball penalty, you'd still have to attempt the try...this is why I do not think the try is considered an "extension" of the period.

Read down to rule 3-3-3d.
A Try is a down, the ball becomes live and then dead. Since the touchdown rule to extend the period is already in affect in a tied game, the accepted penalty 3-3-3a part has no affect.
