EXC_CRASH (SIGTERM)

Overview

This signal is often sent shortly before SIGKILL, to give the process an opportunity to terminate cleanly. The user can also send this signal using the kill command in Terminal, if no specific signal is specified.

For more information about how the system stops apps and services, see The Life Cycle of a Daemon in Daemons and Services Programming Guide.
