I think it sends an AppleEvent. You'd need to write an appleEvent 
handler to catch it, like this:

on appleEvent theClass,theID
   if theClass is "aevt" and theID is "quit" then
     -- do your stuff here
   end if
   pass appleEvent
end appleEvent

There is more if you look up "appleEvent" in the dictionary.
