Enforcement penalties for facemask, (...) occuring behind the neutral zone by the offensive team from the previous spot.
Didn't d just say that the enforcement on pass plays is from the previous spot???
I think I should stop with the work for today and get some rest while waiting for some help...

If 10-2-2-d-
4 was not there, then you would not award a safety for those listed fouls when they occured in Team A's EndZone. Instead you would enforce from the Previous spot.
The reason for exception 4 is the embedded exception to the exception, i.e.
the part about awarding the safety, but I agree that when you first read it, it looks like it is repeating itself
