The play did not end in the EZ and in NF rules the result of the play is the ball being out at the 4 because you can fumble the ball forward and the ball goes to the spot it is dead if going out of bounds.

So the enforcement spot actually is the GL and should be on the 15, because the foul took place in the EZ. So 1st and 10 at B's 15.

I must qualify something. This is if you do not rule momentum on the interception. If you rule momentum then the ball enforcement is from the 4 as originally said. But it sounds like there was no momentum based on your OP.

This. It all goes back to definitions. When the mask was grabbed, it was a running play for B. The end of the related run was, by rule, the goal line. So it's B's ball at the 15 yard line 1/10. Clock SNAP/25.
