Chapter 5, Mishna 1

Is there a ceiling to the amount of money a husband may commit to pay upon divorce or his death in the marriage contract? May the bride waive part of the price so it falls below the minimum? Does she become entitled to the who amount (the standard minimum plus any additional sum the husband promised) as soon as they are betrothed or only when they’re fully married?
