Hi Dennis Walsh, the defensive termination clause kicks even if you simply accuse Facebook of patent infringement — you don’t even need to sue them, pay retainers nor engage in long legal processes, if I understand correctly.

This was confirmed by Heather Meeker (a lawyer who represents FB in OSS affairs) in her recent blog post. She says:
Unless a company decides to sue Facebook (or accuse its products), the termination trigger has no actual effect.
