History (before joining KeyDrive SA):</ref>
 +
Since 2008 Monte Cahn served as President of Moniker and SnapNames [[SnapNames]].<ref>[http://www.blueglass.com/speakers/monte-cahn/ BlueGlass.com]</ref> He left in December, 2010; in May, 20111  he filed a lawsuit against his former employer.<ref>[http://www.dnjournal.com/archive/lowdown/2011/dailyposts/20110505.htm DNJournal.com]</ref> He filed suit against Oversee, and named its CEO, [[Jeff Kupietzky]], and its founder, [[Lawrence Ng]]; the suit was over  alleged non-payment of a $13 million USD incentive plan.<ref>[http://domainnamewire.com/2011/05/04/monte-cahn-sues-oversee-net-over-13-million-incentive-plan/ DomainNameWire.com]</ref>

In September, 2011, Mr. Cahn updated his claims of breach of contract and fraud after a judge tossed out his original claim. The new claim now contains specific language on how Oversee.net allegedly affected Moniker's revenue. He now states that the original acquisition was in violation of an agreement between [[Google]] and Oversee, and that Oversee improperly deflated Moniker's revenue and performance numbers.<ref>[http://domainnamewire.com/2011/09/08/monte-cahn-updates-lawsuit-against-oversee-net-with-new-details/ Monte Cahn Updates Lawsuit, DomainNameWire.com]</ref>
