What happens if an SMF exit modifies the SMF record?

What happens if an SMF exit modifies the SMF record? Do the next exit in the chain, SYS1.MANx and/or the stream see the modified record, or is the exit only modifying a "private copy" of the SMF record? It would seem to me to be an important point, and the documentation is pretty much silent (or
