As previously disclosed, on December 15, 2019, the Company entered into an amendment of the Strategic Collaboration Agreement with Ms. Winfrey, pursuant to which, among other things, the Initial Term of the Strategic Collaboration Agreement was extended until April 17, 2023 (with no additional successive renewal terms) after which a second term will commence and continue through the earlier of the date of the Company’s 2025 annual meeting of shareholders or May 31, 2025. Ms. Winfrey will continue to provide the above-described services during the remainder of the Initial Term and, during the second term, will provide certain consulting and other services to the Company. In consideration of Ms. Winfrey entering into the amendment to the Strategic Collaboration Agreement and the performance of her obligations thereunder, on December 15, 2019 the Company granted Ms. Winfrey a fully vested option to purchase 3,276 shares of the Company’s common stock (the "Winfrey Amendment Option") which became exercisable on May 6, 2020, the date on which shareholder approval of such option was obtained. The amendment to the Strategic Collaboration Agreement became operative on May 6, 2020 when the Company’s shareholders approved the Winfrey Amendment Option. Based on the Black Scholes option pricing method as of May 6, 2020, the Company recorded $32,686 of compensation expense in the second quarter of fiscal 2020 for the Winfrey Amendment Option. The Company used a dividend yield of 0.0%, 63.68% volatility and a risk-free interest rate of 0.41%. Compensation expense is included as a component of selling, general and administrative expenses. In addition to the Strategic Collaboration Agreement, Ms. Winfrey and her related entities provided services to the Company totaling $305 and $2,066 for the three and nine months ended September 26, 2020, respectively, and $662 and $2,665 for the three and nine months ended September 28, 2019, respectively, which services included advertising, production and related fees.

Entities related to Ms. Winfrey were reimbursed for actual costs incurred in connection with the WW Presents: Oprah’s 2020 Vision tour totaling $2 and $1,653 for the three and nine months ended September 26, 2020, respectively. The Company’s accounts payable to parties related to Ms. Winfrey at September 26, 2020 and December 28, 2019 was $198 and $72, respectively.
