1.
The original license text link is added to the Copyright itself
Copyright © 2018, 2020 Eclipse Foundation. https://www.eclipse.org/legal/efsl.php
2.
In the original license text, the following line is changed from
All existing copyright notices, or if one does not exist, a notice (hypertext is preferred,
but a textual representation is permitted) of the form: "Copyright © [$date-of-document] Eclipse Foundation, Inc.
<<url to this license>>
"
All existing copyright notices, or if one does not exist, a notice (hypertext is preferred, but a textual representation
is permitted) of the form: "Copyright © [$date-of-document] Eclipse Foundation, Inc. https://www.eclipse.org/legal/efsl.php"
Rationale: A person reading the license text from anywhere other than
https://www.eclipse.org/legal/efsl.php
will not know what to fill in for <<url to this license>>
3.
As you have said the Notice can be changed
The notice is:
"Copyright © 2018, 2020 Eclipse Foundation. This software or document includes material copied from or derived from
Jakarta® Enterprise Beans https://jakarta.ee/specifications/enterprise-beans/4.0/"
Please let me know if anything needs to changed.

@pombredanne:
Thanks for checking in on this. As indicated there is to be no modification of the license text itself, it is to be used in its exact form as per https://www.eclipse.org/legal/efsl.php.
As you suggest, only the notice can have a variant as per the terms of the EFSL itself.
For those on this pull request, please ensure you are adhering.
If there are any lingering questions, please contact license@xxxxxxxxxxx.
