I feel like I'm doing a good job with (1), but still need to work on (2)

On a serious note, I don't understand the last part of the post.

Quote:
However, if that player does anything other than what is permitted by Rule 9-11.6, that player
has caused the ball to go into the backcourt when either he or a teammate are the first to touch
the ball (Interpretation: NCAA memorandum, December 10, 2003, page 8).
Example: Player throws a pass which is first touched by a teammate in the backcourt.
A2 jumps from his frontcourt and secures control of A1's throw-in pass while airborne. A2 then lands with one or both feet in the backcourt. So far, he's fine.

Is the bold "Example" above saying that if A2 now passes to A3 who is also in the backcourt, this is a violation? Or, as I think is more likely, if A2 secures the ball while airborne and then (before landing in the backcourt) passes to A3 in the backcourt, then this is a violation?
