Wheréas an accord is “a method of discharging a claim whereby the parties agree 'to give and accept something other than that which1 is due in settlement‘Of the claim and to perform the agreement.” Bruestle v. S & M Motors, Inc., 914 S.W.2d 353, 354 n. 1 (Ky.App.1996) (cita tions omitted). If the subsequent contract is an executory accord (or an accord without satisfaction) then a breach of that contract will allow the non-breaching party to sue either on the accord or on the origihal obligation:’ Brown v. Noland Company, Inc., 403 S.W.2d 33, 35 (Ky.App.1966). Thus, under the Appellants’ reasoning, the Purchase Agreement was an executory accord, that -is, to be performed if the Lease as amended was not discharged.
