e & a-c1-g1 in As & AI

e & a-e1-g1 in AII

a & c1-g1 in AIII & A (→FE→GE,EE)

Originally, the part of the L.H. in this bar was a repetition of bar 10. Unlike in the previous bar, here one of the presentation autographs – AIII – already includes the final version. The version of AII is most probably Chopin's mistake.
