4-15-4: The dribble ends when:
a. The dribbler catches or causes the ball to come to rest in one or both
hands.
b. The dribbler palms/carries the ball by allowing it to come to rest in one or
both hands.
c. The dribbler simultaneously touches the ball with both hands.
d. The ball touches or is touched by an opponent and causes the dribbler to
lose control.

Try 9-5-3

A player shall not dribble a second time after his/her first dribble has ended, unless it is after he/she has lost control because of: A pass or fumble which has then touched, or been touched by, another player.

9-5-3 does not fit if A1's actions are deemed an interrupted dribble.

This rule allows A1 to dribble a second time, if AFTER ending their initial dribble the ball is fumbled...

In the OP, the ball was touched prior to the dribble ending. 4-15-4

Did A2's touching change the A1's interrupted dribble, into a fumble? As it was not a momentary loss of control (4-15-5)? If it is ruled a fumble, then the dribble has ended and 9-5-3 applies.

Or when A2 touches the ball, can that be considered a pass? Thus 9-5-3 allows a second dribble.

Only if it touches another player after the fumble.

The play in the OP is an interrupted dribble. When it touches A2, it becomes a pass. A1 lost control of a ball in the form of a pass that touched another player (9-5-3...the first part rather than the 2nd part that everyone is talking about). A1 is no longer limited and can start a new dribble.
