That's an A sus 2 - interesting because it has no 3rd of any sort, a rarity in the chord world - it will work in a minor or major context, and if you supply a major 3rd elsewhere (e.g. on another instrument, or rythm part) it can act as a polychord to give you an A+9, or with a minor 3rd to give you Amadd9

Well its open to interpretation as there were only 5 strings there - I assumed the bottom E was missing, making the first 2 chords A and Am ... if it was the top E missing, the first two chords would have been Esus and E, and the last would indeed have been E minor. But that didn't match the way Robin labelled them so I opted for the first interpretation.
