Code:

#!/bin/bash

sth_for_exec_binary `tail -n +5 $0`

exec binary from script

I believe you may want to use a sub shell to run your binary.
If it's run from a top level shell, I'm of the understanding, that you pass control over to the binary from the script, therefore ending your script.
If you are needing information from the binary, I think you will need to redirect it to a file, & then open that file in your top level script.
