BC?
Does the 10 sec count stop?
Continue 10 sec count?
Start a new 10 sec count?
Nothing?

Yes, this is a BC violation as the action was not a dribble. As you have stated that the ball slipped out of A1’s hand, this meets the definition of a fumble and the play violates 9-9-2.
The 10 second count does cease when the ball strikes the floor in the front court for the same reason above—this is not a dribble.
