accept and negotiate such check or payment without prejudice to Landlord's
rights to: (i) recover the remaining balance of such unpaid rent or (ii) pursue
any other remedy provided in this Lease Agreement. Neither party shall record
this Lease Agreement or any memorandum thereof and any such recordation shall be
