To run a terminal, i was using Ctrl + Alt + T to open a terminal in the host OS.  Now that I am inside a guest OS, running the command would render a terminal 'outside' of the guest OS, and I cant exit the terminal. 
Then I find out about Ctrl Alt F1 to switch to the virtual terminal on the host. 
Then I can now access the overlay terminal and execute the exit command.
