That's an "only". I read that as a restriction on the permissions granted
earlier, not as a separate grant of permission. If it's a separate grant
of permission, it doesn't need the 'only'.
Then there's the question of what a "binding" license is; who is it supposed
to bind? Shall we assume that it binds those who distribute only, in which
case it's all good?
