Read 5-6 EXCEPTIONS 4., governing technical fouls, which isn't relevant because there was no technical foul, and, since the shooter was still airborne, the ball was not yet dead when the intentional foul happened.

Then read 5-6 EXCEPTIONS 3., the middle sentence. "No penalty or part of a penalty carries over from one quarter or exra period to the next..." That's your sitch.

This was an intentional foul; it happened while the ball was still live. Therefore the foul and its enforcement belongs to the 2nd qtr.

Had the foul happened when the ball was dead, if it needed to be called, it would have been a technical foul and the shots and resulting throw-in would have belonged to the 3rd. quarter.

Right?
Something tells me there's a better way to explain the correct answer.
