As I understand it, LICENSE is for licenses. Period. If advertising is required, the NOTICE file is used.
If there are third party works included in a distribution that use the same Apache 2.0 license as any Apache components, the license file already contains the appropriate license. Section 4 of the Apache 2.0 license discusses whether notice is required. All Apache distributions contain NOTICEs that call out Apache components. Does the third party distribution contain NOTICE requirements? Then the Apache distribution that includes the third party needs to contain the notice about the third party in its NOTICE.
