The exception applies only to the first person to touch the ball. So, if the ball is tipped (doesn't matter whether it was tipped by A1 or B1), and then A2 jumps from the FC, catches the ball and lands in the BC, it's now a violation.

To add, the violation occurs because the throw-in ends when the first player touches the ball. Therefore, the exception ends as well.
