No, the worker is terminated while DoSomethingWithV8 (without "Else"), and
Blink continues running more V8 code at DoSomethingElseWithV8.  Two pieces
of code run consecutively.

Worker thread (worker isolate):
    {
      v8::TryCatch try_catch(isolate);
      DoSomethingWithV8();  // The Isolate terminates here.
      if (try_catch.HasCaught()) {  // => true due to termination
        // Handle error or termination.
        return;
      }
    }
    {
      v8::TryCatch try_catch(isolate);
      DoSomethingElseWithV8();  // V8 APIs fail because the Isolate is
terminating.
      if (try_catch.HasCaught()) {  // => false because no new exception is
thrown inside the v8::TryCatch.
        return;  // Blink doesn't reach here.
      }
      // Blink reach here instead.  :(
    }

IIUC, the second try_catch.HasCaught() doesn't return true because there is
no new exception thrown inside the v8::TryCatch scope, although V8 APIs
fail inside DoSomethingElseWithV8 due to a pending termination exception.

Cheers,
