The diagram shows the scenario whereby a delegate instance contains five methods in its invocation list. When this instance is invoked, Method1 and Method2 are invoked in turn. Let's assume that when Method3 is invoked, an unhandled exception occurs. As a result, Method4 and Method5 will not execute and the exception object is thrown to the delegate instance's context.
