I believe the timer event ends the task, and starts the task the timer event points too. My guess is that null pointer occurs because the task is already complete. If you have a listener that needs to fire, you'll have to duplicate the logic in the timeout script task, or move it out to script task that both the user task and the timer lead to.

But I think the "flow2" which you have mentioned might be wrong.
You need to specify one the possible transition name from the existing task.
