This License and the rights granted hereunder will terminate: >… >(c) automatically without notice from Apple if You, at any time during the term of this License, commence an action for patent infringement against Apple; _provided that Apple did not first commence an action for patent infringement against You in that instance._ am I misunderstanding the last part?

In the above scenario, Apple is infringing the rights of another company, who uses Apple's open source code. That company is then in a hard place. They have to allow the infringement by Apple, or stop using the open source software. Since Apple is the infringer in this scenario, they would not be inclined to 'first commence and action for patent infringement against You'
