Question on indexed nullable column

Hi:

In Oracle database, if I do:

create table T1 (

	C1  number(9) NOT NULL,
	C2  number(9));

create index INDX1 on T1(C1);
create index INDX2 on T1(C2);

Is here a performance penalty, or other problems if an indexed column is nullable (such as C2 here)? If yes, why?

Thanks.
