You'll be able to do this as follows:

public partial class Form1 : Form
{
    public Form1()
    {
        InitializeComponent();
    }

    private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        Form2 form2 = new Form2(this);
        form2.Show();
    }

    public void HandleForm2Exception(Exception ex)
    {
        MessageBox.Show("EXCEPTION HAPPENED!");
    }
}

and on Form2.cs

public partial class Form2 : Form
{
    private Form1 form1;

    public Form2(Form1 form1) : this()
    {
        this.form1 = form1;
    }

    public Form2()
    {
        InitializeComponent();
    }

    private void Form2_FormClosed(object sender, FormClosedEventArgs e)
    {
        try
        {
            throw new Exception();
        }
        catch (Exception ex)
        {
            if(this.form1 != null)
                this.form1.HandleForm2Exception(ex);
        }
    }
}
