I'm not one of those guys with a case book by my computer, but I believe Barney is right. A2 caused the ball to go out of bounds, so the throw-in should be where he caused it to go out.
If the ball had bounced out of bounds before A2 touched it, then it would be at the point of the original throw-in.
FOUND THE REFERENCE:
SECTION 6 THROW-IN ADMINISTRATION
ART. 1 . . . The throw-in pass shall touch another player (inbounds or out of bounds) on the court before going out of bounds untouched.
