In a well-formed model, such a Transition should have a corresponding external Transition outgoing from the same exit point, representing a continuation of the terminating Transition.

A Transition represents an arc between exactly one source Vertex and exactly one Target vertex (the source and targets may be the same Vertex). It may form part of a compound transition, which takes the StateMachine from one steady State configuration...
If the Transition terminates on the edge of the composite State (i.e., without entering the State), then all the Regions are entered using the default entry rule above.
If the Transition explicitly enters one or more Regions (in case of a fork), these Regions are entered explicitly and the others by default.
Exit points are the inverse of entry points. That is, Transitions originating from a Vertex within the composite State can terminate on the exit point.
In a well-formed model, such a Transition should have a corresponding external Transition outgoing from the same exit point, representing a continuation of the terminating Transition.

Entry points represent termination points (sources) for incoming Transitions and origination points (targets) for Transitions that terminate on some internal Vertex of the composite State.
In effect, the latter is a continuation of the external incoming Transition, with the proviso that the execution of the entry Behavior of the composite State (if defined) occurs between the effect Behavior of the incoming Transition and the effect ...
If there is no outgoing Transition inside the composite State, then the incoming Transition simply performs a default State entry.
