Illegal Dribble?

Are we in agreement?

Player A1, while dribbling near a sideline, touches the boundary, but not at the same time that he is touching the dribbled ball. Violation 9-3-1 Note.

Player A2, while dribbling near a sideline, bounces the ball off his foot, becomes an interrupted dribbler, and while attempting to regain control of the ball, touches a boundary, when he is not in contact with the ball. No violation 4-15-6-D.

Player A3, while dribbling near a sideline, bounces the ball off his foot, becomes an interrupted dribbler, and while attempting to regain control of the ball, touches a boundary, when he is in contact, but not in control, of the ball. Violation 9-3-2.
