One for you, Vaibhav. Congrats on becoming CFO. Free cash flow generation has been already quite robust. How do you see the
sustainability of this going forward?
Question: Kash Rangan - Goldman Sachs Group Inc - Analyst
: Thank you so much, Vlad and Vaibhav.
Question: William Fitzsimmons - Jefferies Group LLC - Analyst
: Hi, guys. This is Bill Fitzsimmons on for Samad. Maybe expanding on that free cash flow question, when I look at the guide, the thing

They felt they've given up market there too much in the last few years.
So as part of the agreement, will this be more of a [push] by AT&T and their sales force incorporating your functionality? Or will it be
an add-on where a customer can elect it, but won't necessarily be part of the core offering?
And then the final question, if I could, please, can you call out any FX benefit or maybe to isolate the constant currency growth during
the quarter? And then what you have in your expectations for the remainder of the year for FX, just given the movements in the
rates recently?
Question: Michael Funk - Bofa Merrill Lynch Asset Holdings Inc - Analyst
: Right. Thank you, guys, very much.
