Look at the built-in media player (music). When it is actively playing if you then just press Home then it shows it is still active (and playing) by displaying in the Notification area. If you pause it first, then press Home there is nothing in the Notification area because the application is doing nothing.
Try and get away from the idea that Android apps need to "exit". When in the background they should be idle unless they display a Notification. Also when an app is in the background the system can recover the resources the app uses if it needs them. An App in the background but not yet "killed" by the system means that it "re-launches" faster if the end-user switches back to it.
