The penalty indeed is just 'loss of ball' - a throw-in by the opponent at the spot nearest the foul.
Be certain that there is in fact team control. If, for example, a foul takes place during a shot, after the ball has been released, there is no team control and a foul by a teammate of the shooter would not be a 'team control foul'. If the bonus were in effect, the fouled party would be shooting.
