I believe this says that you may add a copyright notice and
additional license terms to the modified files, for example
"This changed file copyright Leo Simons and licensed under
the GPL". That does not mean you have the right to modify
the Apache license itself. That's not necessary for this
purpose. You can include your own license document and
refer to the Apache license in there.

"In addition to the terms found in the Apache license 2.0,
the following terms are provided: A, B and C".

Please note that my employer is not to be regarded as a "Contributor"
as defined in the "Apache Community Contribution License".
