[Example:

.try {
  …                            // protected instructions
  leave exitSEH                // normal exit
}
catch [mscorlib]System.FormatException {
  …                            // handle the exception
  pop                          // pop the exception object
  leave exitSEH                // leave catch handler
}
exitSEH:                       // continue here
