  We explicitly construct a configuration of ${\cal N}=4$ supersymmetry
Yang-Mills theory with gauge group $U(N)$ on an interval on length $L$ with a
D5-like boundary condition on one end and an NS5-like boundary condition on the
other. For $N>1$, such a configuration violates the $s$-rule and is
non-supersymmetric. We compute the energy relative to the BPS bound of these
configurations and find that it is proportional to $N(N^2-1) g_{YM4}^{-2}
L^{-3}$.
