The OS will terminate the process but if you wanna be clean about this you should handle your application through services management.

- Start script
- Stop script
- Add service

That way when the system boots it will check all the services that need to be started and start your application automaticly. Same thing while your system shuts down it will check all the services to end and will terminate your application cleanly.
