$3,140,000 Contingent Income Auto-Callable Securities
due December 18, 2025
Based on the Worst Performing of the S&P 500®
Index, the Russell 2000® Index and the EURO STOXX 50® Index
Principal at Risk Securities
The Contingent Income Auto-Callable Securities (the “securities”)
are unsecured debt obligations of Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce (“CIBC” or the “Bank”). The securities have
the terms described in the accompanying underlying supplement, prospectus supplement and prospectus, as supplemented or modified by this
document. The securities do not guarantee the payment of interest or the repayment of any principal. Instead, the securities will pay
a Contingent Quarterly Coupon at an annual rate of 7.76% but only if the Closing Level of each of the S&P 500®
Index, the Russell 2000® Index and the EURO STOXX 50® Index on the related Observation Date is at or
above 75.00% of its respective Initial Index Value, which we refer to as the respective Coupon Barrier Level. However, if the
Closing Level of any Underlying Index is less than its Coupon Barrier Level on any Observation Date, we will pay
no interest for the related quarterly period. In addition, the securities will be automatically redeemed if the Closing Level of each
Underlying Index is greater than or equal to its respective Initial Index Value on any quarterly Observation Date, beginning
on March 13, 2025 and ending on September 15, 2025, for the Early Redemption Payment equal to the sum of the Stated Principal
Amount plus the related Contingent Quarterly Coupon. No further payments will be made on the securities once they have been redeemed.
At maturity, if the securities have not previously been redeemed and the Final Index Value of each Underlying Index is greater
than or equal to 75.00% of its respective Initial Index Value, which we refer to as the respective Downside Threshold Level, the Payment
at Maturity will be the Stated Principal Amount and the related Contingent Quarterly Coupon. If, however, the Final Index Value of any
Underlying Index is less than its Downside Threshold Level, investors will be fully exposed to the decline in the Worst Performing
Underlying Index on a 1-to-1 basis and will receive a Payment at Maturity that is less than 75.00% of the Stated Principal Amount
of the securities and could be zero. Accordingly, investors in the securities must be willing to accept the risk of losing their entire
initial investment based on the performance of the Worst Performing Underlying Index and also the risk of not receiving any quarterly
coupons during the entire term of the securities. Because all payments on the securities are based on the worst performing of the
Underlying Indices, a decline beyond the respective Coupon Barrier Level on any Observation Date and/or beyond the respective Downside
Threshold Level on the final Observation Date, as applicable, of any Underlying Index will result in the forfeiture of Contingent
Quarterly Coupons and/or a significant loss of your investment, as applicable, even if one or both of the other Underlying Indices have
appreciated or have not declined as much. Investors will not participate in any appreciation in any Underlying Index. The securities are
for investors who are willing to risk their principal based on the worst performing of three Underlying Indices and who seek an opportunity
to earn interest at a potentially above-market rate in exchange for the risk of receiving no quarterly interest if any Underlying Index
closes below its Coupon Barrier Level on any Observation Date, and the risk of an early redemption of the securities.
All payments are subject to our credit risk. If we default on our
obligations, you could lose some or all of your investment. These securities are not secured obligations and you will not have any security
interest in, or otherwise have any access to, any Underlying Index or any securities included in any Underlying Index. The securities
will not constitute deposits insured by the Canada Deposit Insurance Corporation, the U.S. Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, or any
other government agency or instrumentality of Canada, the United States or any other jurisdiction. The securities are not bail-inable
debt securities (as defined on page 6 of the prospectus).

Contingent Income Auto-Callable Securities due December 18, 2025
Based on the Worst Performing of the S&P 500® Index, the Russell 2000® Index and the EURO STOXX 50®
Index (the “securities”) do not guarantee the repayment of any principal and do not provide for the regular payment of interest.
Instead, the securities will pay a Contingent Quarterly Coupon but only if the Closing Level of each Underlying Index is
at or above its respective Coupon Barrier Level on the related Observation Date. However, if the Closing Level of any
Underlying Index is less than its Coupon Barrier Level on any Observation Date, we will pay no interest for the related
quarterly period. If the Closing Level of at least one Underlying Index is less than its respective Coupon Barrier Level
on each Observation Date, you will not receive any Contingent Quarterly Coupon for the entire term of the securities. In addition,
if the Closing Level of each Underlying Index is greater than or equal to its Initial Index Value on any quarterly Observation
Date beginning on March 13, 2025 and ending on September 15, 2025, the securities will be automatically redeemed for an Early
Redemption Payment equal to the Stated Principal Amount plus the Contingent Quarterly Coupon with respect to the related Observation Date.
If the securities have not been automatically called prior to maturity and the Final Index Value of any Underlying Index is less
than its Downside Threshold Level, investors will be fully exposed to the decline in the Worst Performing Underlying Index on a 1-to-1
basis, and will receive a Payment at Maturity that is less than 75.00% of the Stated Principal Amount of the securities and could be zero.
Accordingly, investors in the securities must be willing to accept the risk of losing their entire initial investment based on the
performance of the Worst Performing Underlying Index and also the risk of not receiving any quarterly coupons throughout the entire term
of the securities. In addition, investors will not participate in any appreciation of any Underlying Index.
| Maturity: |
|
One year, unless redeemed earlier |
| Contingent Quarterly Coupon: |
|
If the Closing Level of each Underlying Index is greater
than or equal to its respective Coupon Barrier Level on an Observation Date, we will pay a Contingent Quarterly Coupon of $19.40 per
security (equivalent to an annual rate of 7.76%) on the related Coupon Payment Date.
If the Closing Level of any Underlying Index is less
than its Coupon Barrier Level, no Contingent Quarterly Coupon will be paid with respect to that quarterly period. It is possible
that one or more Underlying Indices will close below the respective Coupon Barrier Level(s) on most or all of the Observation Dates
so that you will receive few or no Contingent Quarterly Coupons throughout the entire term of the securities. |
| Automatic Early Redemption: |
|
If the Closing Level of each Underlying Index is greater than or equal to its Initial Index Value on any quarterly Observation Date beginning on March 13, 2025 and ending on September 15, 2025, the securities will be automatically redeemed for an Early Redemption Payment equal to the Stated Principal Amount plus the Contingent Quarterly Coupon with respect to the related Observation Date. No further payments will be made on the securities once they have been redeemed. |
| Payment at Maturity: |
|
If the securities have not been automatically redeemed prior
to maturity, the Payment at Maturity will be determined as follows:
If the Final Index Value of each Underlying Index
is greater than or equal to its respective Downside Threshold Level: the Stated Principal Amount and the Contingent Quarterly Coupon
with respect to the final Observation Date.
If the Final Index Value of any Underlying Index is
less than its Downside Threshold Level: the Stated Principal Amount times the Index Performance Factor of the Worst Performing
Underlying Index. Under these circumstances, the Payment at Maturity will be less than 75.00% of the Stated Principal Amount of the securities
and could be zero. No quarterly coupon will be payable at maturity. Accordingly, investors in the securities must be willing to accept
the risk of losing their entire initial investment. |
Contingent Income Auto-Callable Securities due December 18, 2025
Based on the Worst Performing of the S&P 500® Index, the Russell 2000® Index and the EURO STOXX 50® Index Principal at Risk Securities
Key Investment Rationale
The securities do not guarantee the repayment of any principal at maturity
and do not provide for the regular payment of interest. Instead, the securities will pay a Contingent Quarterly Coupon but only if
the Closing Level of each Underlying Index is at or above its respective Coupon Barrier Level on the related
Observation Date. However, if the Closing Level of any Underlying Index is less than its Coupon Barrier Level on
any Observation Date, we will pay no interest for the related quarterly period. These securities are for investors who are willing to
risk their principal and seek an opportunity to earn interest at a potentially above-market rate in exchange for the risk of receiving
no quarterly interest if any Underlying Index closes below its Coupon Barrier Level on any Observation Date, and the risk of an
early redemption of the securities.
The following scenarios are for illustration purposes only to demonstrate
how the Contingent Quarterly Coupon and the Payment at Maturity (if the securities have not been previously redeemed) are determined,
and do not attempt to demonstrate every situation that may occur. Accordingly, the securities may or may not be redeemed prior to maturity,
the Contingent Quarterly Coupon may not be payable with respect to some or all of the quarterly periods during the term of the securities,
and the Payment at Maturity may be less than 75.00% of the Stated Principal Amount of the securities and may be zero. Investors will not
participate in any appreciation in any Underlying Index. Even with any Contingent Quarterly Coupons, the return on the securities could
be negative.
| Scenario 1: The securities are redeemed prior to maturity |
This scenario assumes that, prior to early redemption, each Underlying
Index closes at or above its Coupon Barrier Level on some quarterly Observation Dates, but one or more Underlying Indices close
below the respective Coupon Barrier Level(s) on the others. Investors receive the Contingent Quarterly Coupon, corresponding to a
return of 7.76% per annum, for the quarterly periods for which the Closing Level of each Underlying Index is at or above
the respective Coupon Barrier Level on the related Observation Date, but not for the quarterly periods for which the Closing Level of
any Underlying Index is below its Coupon Barrier Level on the related Observation Date.
When each Underlying Index closes at or above its respective Initial
Index Value on a quarterly Observation Date, the securities will be automatically redeemed for the Stated Principal Amount plus
the Contingent Quarterly Coupon with respect to the related Observation Date. |
| Scenario 2: The securities are not redeemed prior to maturity, and investors receive principal back at maturity |
This scenario assumes that each Underlying Index closes at or above the
respective Coupon Barrier Level on some quarterly Observation Dates, but one or more Underlying Indices close below the respective Coupon
Barrier Level(s) on the others, and each Underlying Index closes below its respective Initial Index Value on every quarterly Observation
Date. Consequently, the securities are not automatically redeemed, and investors receive the Contingent Quarterly Coupon, corresponding
to a return of 7.76% per annum, for the quarterly periods for which the Closing Level of each Underlying Index is at or
above the respective Coupon Barrier Level on the related Observation Date, but not for the quarterly periods for which the Closing Level
of any Underlying Index is below its Coupon Barrier Level on the related Observation Date.
On the final Observation Date, each Underlying
Index closes at or above its Downside Threshold Level. At maturity, investors will receive the Stated Principal Amount and the Contingent
Quarterly Coupon with respect to the final Observation Date. |
| Scenario 3: The securities are not redeemed prior to maturity, and investors suffer a substantial loss of principal at maturity |
This scenario assumes that each Underlying Index closes at or above its
respective Coupon Barrier Level on some quarterly Observation Dates, but one or more Underlying Indices close below the respective Coupon
Barrier Level(s) on the others, and each Underlying Index closes below its respective Initial Index Value on every quarterly Observation
Date. Consequently, the securities are not automatically redeemed, and investors receive the Contingent Quarterly Coupon, corresponding
to a return of 7.76% per annum, for the quarterly periods for which the Closing Level of each Underlying Index is at or
above the respective Coupon Barrier Level on the related Observation Date, but not for the quarterly periods for which the Closing Level
of any Underlying Index is below its Coupon Barrier Level on the related Observation Date.
On the final Observation Date, one or more Underlying Indices close below
the respective Downside Threshold Level(s). At maturity, investors will receive an amount equal to the Stated Principal Amount multiplied
by the Index Performance Factor of the Worst Performing Underlying Index. Under these circumstances, the Payment at Maturity will
be less than 75.00% of the Stated Principal Amount and could be zero. No coupon will be paid at maturity in this scenario. |

Hypothetical Examples
The following hypothetical examples illustrate how to determine whether
a Contingent Quarterly Coupon is payable with respect to an Observation Date and how to calculate the Payment at Maturity, if any, if
the securities have not been automatically redeemed early. The following examples are for illustrative purposes only. Whether you receive
a Contingent Quarterly Coupon will be determined by reference to the Closing Level of each Underlying Index on each quarterly Observation
Date, and the amount you will receive at maturity, if any, will be determined by reference to the Final Index Value of the Worst Performing
Underlying Index on the final Observation Date. The actual Initial Index Value, Coupon Barrier Level and Downside Threshold Level for
each Underlying Index are set forth on page 2 of this pricing supplement. All payments on the securities, if any, are subject to
our credit risk. The numbers in the hypothetical examples below may have been rounded for the ease of analysis. The below examples are
based on the following terms:
| Stated Principal Amount: |
$1,000 per security |
| Hypothetical Initial Index Values: |
1,000 for each Underlying Index |
| Contingent Quarterly Coupon: |
$19.40 per quarter (7.76% per annum or 1.94% per quarter) |
| Observation Dates: |
Quarterly, commencing on March 13, 2025 |
| Hypothetical Coupon Barrier Levels: |
750.00 for each Underlying Index (75.00% of its hypothetical Initial Index Value) |
| Hypothetical Downside Threshold Levels: |
750.00 for each Underlying Index (75.00% of its hypothetical Initial Index Value) |

$0 |
| Hypothetical Observation Date 4 |
500 (below Coupon Barrier Level) |
400 (below Coupon Barrier Level) |
550 (below Coupon Barrier Level) |
$0 |
On hypothetical Observation Date 1, each Underlying Index closes at or
above its respective Coupon Barrier Level. Therefore, a Contingent Quarterly Coupon of $19.40 is paid on the relevant Coupon Payment Date.
On each of hypothetical Observation Dates 2 and 3, at least one Underlying
Index closes at or above its respective Coupon Barrier Level, but one or both of the other Underlying Indices close below their respective
Coupon Barrier Levels. Therefore, no Contingent Quarterly Coupon is paid on the relevant Coupon Payment Date.
On hypothetical Observation Date 4, each Underlying Index closes below
its respective Coupon Barrier Level, and, accordingly, no Contingent Quarterly Coupon is paid on the relevant Coupon Payment Date.
If the Closing Level of at least one Underlying Index is less than
its Coupon Barrier Level on each Observation Date, you will not receive any Contingent Quarterly Coupons for the entire term of the securities.

Based on the Worst Performing of the S&P 500® Index, the Russell 2000® Index and the EURO STOXX 50® Index Principal at Risk Securities
How to calculate the Payment at Maturity (if the securities
have not been automatically redeemed):
If the Closing Level of each Underlying Index is greater than or equal
to its Initial Index Value on any quarterly Observation Date beginning on March 13, 2025 and ending on September 15, 2025, the
securities will be automatically redeemed for an Early Redemption Payment equal to the Stated Principal Amount for each security you hold
plus the Contingent Quarterly Coupon with respect to the related Observation Date.
The examples below illustrate how to calculate the Payment at Maturity
if the securities have not been automatically redeemed prior to maturity.
| |
Final Index Value |
Payment at Maturity |
| |
SPX Index |
SX5E Index |
RTY Index |
| Example 1: |
400 (below the Downside Threshold Level) |
500 (below the Downside Threshold Level) |
750 (at or above the Downside Threshold Level) |
$1,000 × Index Performance Factor of the Worst Performing Underlying Index =
$1,000 × (400 / 1,000) = $400 |
| Example 2: |
800 (at or above the Downside Threshold Level) |
750 (at or above the Downside Threshold Level) |
500 (below the Downside Threshold Level) |
$1,000 × (500 / 1,000) = $500 |
| Example 3: |
400 (below the Downside Threshold Level) |
300 (below the Downside Threshold Level) |
450 (below the Downside Threshold Level) |
$1,000 × (300 / 1,000) = $300 |
| Example 4: |
400 (below the Downside Threshold Level) |
400 (below the Downside Threshold Level) |
300 (below the Downside Threshold Level) |
$1,000 × (300 / 1,000) = $300 |
| Example 5: |
1,100 (at or above the
Downside Threshold Level) |
800 (at or above the Downside Threshold Level) |
750 (at or above the Downside Threshold Level) |
The Stated Principal Amount + the Contingent Quarterly Coupon with respect to the final Observation Date. |
| Example 6: |
1,300 (at or above the
Downside Threshold Level) |
1,200 (at or above the Downside Threshold Level) |
1,600 (at or above the Downside Threshold Level) |
The Stated Principal Amount + the Contingent Quarterly Coupon with respect
to the final Observation Date.
For more information, please see above under “How to determine
whether a Contingent Quarterly Coupon is payable with respect to an Observation Date.” |
In examples 1 and 2, the Final Index Value(s) of one or two of the
Underlying Indices are at or above the respective Downside Threshold Level(s), but the Final Index Value(s) of one or both of the
other Underlying Indices are below the respective Downside Threshold Level(s). Therefore, investors are exposed to the downside performance
of the Worst Performing Underlying Index at maturity and receive at maturity an amount equal to the Stated Principal Amount multiplied
by the Index Performance Factor of the Worst Performing Underlying Index. Moreover, investors do not receive any Contingent Quarterly
Coupon for the final quarterly period.
Similarly, in examples 3 and 4, the Final Index Value of each Underlying
Index is below its respective Downside Threshold Level, and investors receive at maturity an amount equal to the Stated Principal Amount
times the Index Performance Factor of the Worst Performing Underlying Index. In example 3, the SPX Index has declined 60% from
its Initial Index Value to its Final Index Value, the SX5E Index has declined 70% from its Initial Index Value to its Final Index Value,
and the RTY Index has declined 55% from its Initial Index Value to its Final Index Value. Therefore, the Payment at Maturity equals the
Stated Principal Amount multiplied by the Index Performance Factor of the SX5E Index, which is the Worst Performing Underlying
Index in this example. In example 4, the SPX Index has declined 60% from its Initial Index Value to its Final Index Value, the SX5E Index
has declined 60% from its Initial Index Value, and the RTY Index has declined 70% from its Initial Index Value to its Final Index Value.
Therefore, the Payment at Maturity equals the Stated Principal Amount times the Index Performance Factor of the RTY Index, which
is the Worst Performing Underlying Index in this example. Moreover, investors do not receive the Contingent Quarterly Coupon for the final
quarterly period.
In examples 5 and 6, the Final Index Value of each Underlying Index is
at or above its respective Downside Threshold Level and its respective Coupon Barrier Level. Therefore, investors receive at maturity
the Stated Principal Amount of the securities plus the

Based on the Worst Performing of the S&P 500® Index, the Russell 2000® Index and the EURO STOXX 50® Index Principal at Risk Securities
Contingent Quarterly Coupon with respect to the final Observation Date.
However, investors do not participate in any appreciation of the Underlying Indices.
If the securities have not been redeemed prior to maturity and the
Final Index Value of ANY Underlying Index is below its Downside Threshold Level, you will be exposed to the downside performance of the
Worst Performing Underlying Index at maturity, and your Payment at Maturity will be less than 75% of the stated principal amount per security
and could be zero.

Risk Factors
An investment in the securities involves significant risks. This section
describes the material risks relating to the securities. For further discussion of these and other risks, you should read the section
entitled “Risk Factors” beginning on page S-1 of the accompanying underlying supplement, page S-1 of the prospectus
supplement and page 1 of the prospectus. We also urge you to consult with your investment, legal, tax, accounting and other advisers
in connection with your investment in the securities.
Risks Relating to the Structure of the Securities
| · | The securities do not guarantee the return of any principal. The terms
of the securities differ from those of ordinary debt securities in that the securities do not provide the regular interest payments or
guarantee the return of any of the Stated Principal Amount at maturity. Instead, if the securities have not been automatically redeemed
prior to maturity and if the Final Index Value of the Worst Performing Underlying Index is less than its Downside Threshold Level, you
will lose 1% for every 1% decline in the Final Index Value of the Worst Performing Underlying Index from its Initial Index Value. In this
case, the Payment at Maturity will be less than 75.00% of the Stated Principal Amount and could be zero. |
| · | The securities do not provide for regular interest payments, and you may
receive no Contingent Quarterly Coupons on most or all of the Coupon Payment Dates. The terms of the securities differ from those
of conventional debt securities in that they do not provide for the regular interest payments. Instead, the securities will pay a Contingent
Quarterly Coupon only if the Closing Level of each Underlying Index on the related Observation Date is at or above
its respective Coupon Barrier Level. If the Closing Level of any Underlying Index is below its Coupon Barrier Level on each
Observation Date, you will not receive any Contingent Quarterly Coupons over the entire term of the securities, and you will not receive
a positive return on your securities. Generally, this non-payment of the Contingent Quarterly Coupons coincides with a period of greater
risk of principal loss on your securities. If you do not earn sufficient Contingent Quarterly Coupons over the term of the securities,
the overall return on the securities may be less than the return on a conventional debt security of ours with comparable maturity. |
| · | The Automatic Early Redemption feature limits your potential return.
If the securities are redeemed, the Early Redemption Payment is limited to the Stated Principal Amount plus the applicable Contingent
Quarterly Coupon. If the securities are redeemed, you will lose the opportunity to continue to receive any Contingent Quarterly Coupons
from the relevant early redemption date to the Maturity Date, and the total return on the securities could be minimal. Because of the
Automatic Early Redemption feature, the term of your investment in the securities may be limited to a period that is shorter than the
original term of the securities and may be as short as approximately 3 months. There is no guarantee that you would be able to reinvest
the proceeds from an investment in the securities at a comparable return for a similar level of risk in the event the securities are automatically
redeemed prior to the Maturity Date. |
| · | Investors will not participate in any appreciation in the level of any
Underlying Index and the return on the securities will be limited to any Contingent Quarterly Coupons paid on the securities. Payments
on the securities, whether at maturity or upon an early redemption, will not exceed the Stated Principal Amount plus any Contingent Quarterly
Coupons, and any positive return you receive on the securities will be composed solely of any Contingent Quarterly Coupons. You will not
participate in any appreciation of any Underlying Index. Therefore, if the appreciation of any Underlying Index exceeds any Contingent
Quarterly Coupons paid to you, the securities will underperform an investment in the securities included in that Underlying Index or the
securities linked to that Underlying Index providing a full participation in the appreciation. |
| · | Higher Contingent Quarterly Coupon or lower Coupon Barrier Level or Downside
Threshold Level are generally associated with a reference asset with greater expected volatility and therefore can indicate a greater
risk of loss. “Volatility” refers to the frequency and magnitude of changes in the value of a reference asset. The greater
the expected volatility with respect to a reference asset on the Pricing Date, the higher the expectation as of the Pricing Date that
the value of that reference asset could close below its Downside Threshold Level on the final Observation Date, indicating a higher expected
risk of loss on the securities. This greater expected risk will generally be reflected in a higher Contingent Quarterly Coupon than the
yield payable on our conventional debt securities with a similar maturity, or in more favorable terms (such as a lower Coupon Barrier
Level or Downside Threshold Level or a higher Contingent Quarterly Coupon) than for similar securities linked to the performance of a
reference asset with a lower expected volatility as of the Pricing Date. You should therefore understand that a relatively higher Contingent
Quarterly Coupon may indicate an increased risk of loss. Further, a relatively lower Coupon Barrier Level or Downside Threshold Level
may not necessarily indicate that the securities have a greater likelihood of payments of Contingent Quarterly Coupons or a repayment
of principal at maturity. The volatility of an Underlying Index can change significantly over the term of the securities. The level of
an Underlying Index could fall sharply, which could result in few or no payment of Contingent Quarterly Coupons during the term of the
securities and a significant or even complete loss of principal at maturity. |
| · | The payments on the securities are based only on the Closing Levels of
the Underlying Indices on the Observation Dates. The payments on the securities will be based on the Closing Levels of the Underlying
Indices on the Observation Dates, including the final Observation Date. Therefore, for example, if the Closing Level of any Underlying
Index has declined as of each Observation Date below its Initial Index Value or its Coupon Barrier Level, as applicable, the securities
will not be redeemed and the Contingent Quarterly Coupons will not be payable during the term of the securities. |
Similarly, if the Final Index Value of any Underlying Index
has declined as of the final Observation Date below its Downside Threshold Level, the Payment at Maturity may be significantly less than
it would otherwise have been had the Payment at Maturity been linked to
Contingent Income Auto-Callable Securities due December 18, 2025
Based on the Worst Performing of the S&P 500® Index, the Russell 2000® Index and the EURO STOXX 50® Index Principal at Risk Securities
the Closing Levels of the Underlying Indices other than on
the final Observation Date. Although the actual level of an Underlying Index at other times during the term of the securities may be higher
than its Closing Levels on the Observation Dates, the payments on the securities will not benefit from the Closing Level of any Underlying
Index at any time other than the Observation Dates.
| · | You are exposed to the price risk of each Underlying Index, with respect
to both the Contingent Quarterly Coupons, if any, and the Payment at Maturity, if any. Your return on the securities is not linked
to a basket consisting of the Underlying Indices. Rather, it will be contingent upon the independent performance of each Underlying Index.
Unlike an instrument with a return linked to a basket of underlying assets, in which risk is mitigated and diversified among all the components
of the basket, you will be exposed to the risks related to each Underlying Index. Poor performance by any Underlying Index over
the term of the securities may negatively affect your return and will not be offset or mitigated by any positive performance by the other
Underlying Indices. To receive any Contingent Quarterly Coupons, each Underlying Index must close at or above its respective Coupon
Barrier Level on the applicable Observation Date. In addition, if any Underlying Index has
declined below its respective Downside Threshold Level as of the final Observation Date, you will be fully exposed to the decline
in the Worst Performing Underlying Index over the term of the securities on a 1-to-1 basis, even if the other Underlying Indices have
appreciated or not declined as much. Under this scenario, the value of any such payment will be less than 75.00% of the Stated Principal
Amount and could be zero. Accordingly, your investment is subject to the price risk of each Underlying Index. |
| · | Because the securities are linked to the performance of the Worst Performing
Underlying Index, you are exposed to greater risks of receiving no Contingent Quarterly Coupons and sustaining a significant loss on your
investment than if the securities were linked to just one index. The risk that you will not receive any Contingent Quarterly Coupons,
or that you will suffer a significant loss on your investment, is greater if you invest in the securities as opposed to substantially
similar securities that are linked to the performance of just one Underlying Index. With three Underlying Indices, it is more likely that
any Underlying Index will close below its Coupon Barrier Level on an Observation Date, or below its Downside Threshold Level on the final
Observation Date, than if the securities were linked to only one Underlying Index. Therefore, it is more likely that you will not receive
any Contingent Quarterly Coupons during the terms of the securities and that you will suffer a significant loss on your investment at
maturity. In addition, because each Underlying Index must close above its Initial Index Value on an Observation Date in order for the
securities to be called prior to maturity, the securities are less likely to be called on any early redemption date than if the securities
were linked to just one Underlying Index. |
Risks Relating to the Underlying Indices
| · | The securities are subject to small-capitalization risk. The RTY Index
tracks companies that may be considered small-capitalization companies. These companies often have greater stock price volatility, lower
trading volume and less liquidity than large-capitalization companies and therefore, the relevant index level may be more volatile than
an investment in stocks issued by larger companies. Stock prices of small-capitalization companies may also be more vulnerable than those
of larger companies to adverse business and economic developments, and the stocks of small-capitalization companies may be thinly traded,
making it difficult for the RTY Index to track them. In addition, small-capitalization companies are often less stable financially than
large-capitalization companies and may depend on a small number of key personnel, making them more vulnerable to loss of personnel. Small-capitalization
companies are often subject to less analyst coverage and may be in early, and less predictable, periods of their corporate existences.
These companies tend to have smaller revenues, less diverse product lines, smaller shares of their product or service markets, fewer financial
resources and competitive strengths than large-capitalization companies, and are more susceptible to adverse developments related to their
products. All these factors may adversely affect the level of the RTY Index and consequently, the return on the securities. |
| · | An investment in the securities is subject
to risks associated with foreign securities markets. The SX5E includes the stocks of foreign companies, and investments in securities
linked to the value of foreign equity securities involve particular risks. Foreign securities markets may have less liquidity and may
be more volatile than the U.S. securities markets, and market developments may affect foreign markets differently than U.S. securities
markets. Direct or indirect government intervention to stabilize a foreign securities market, as well as cross-shareholdings in foreign
companies, may affect trading prices and volumes in those markets. Also, there is generally less publicly available information about
non-U.S. companies that are not subject to the reporting requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission, and non-U.S. companies
are subject to accounting, auditing and financial reporting standards and requirements that differ from those applicable to U.S. reporting
companies. |
The prices and performance of securities
of non-U.S. companies are subject to political, economic, financial, military and social factors which could negatively affect foreign
securities markets, including the possibility of recent or future changes in a foreign government’s economic, monetary and fiscal
policies, the possible imposition of, or changes in, currency exchange laws or other laws or restrictions applicable to foreign companies
or investments in foreign equity securities, the possibility of imposition of withholding taxes on dividend income, the possibility of
fluctuations in the rate of exchange between currencies, the possibility of outbreaks of hostility or political instability and the possibility
of natural disaster or adverse public health developments. Moreover, the relevant non-U.S. economies may differ favorably or unfavorably
from the U.S. economy in important respects, such as growth of gross national product, rate of inflation, trade surpluses or deficits,
capital reinvestment, resources and self-sufficiency.
| · | Governmental regulatory actions, such as sanctions, could adversely affect
your investment in the securities. Governmental regulatory actions, including, without limitation, sanctions-related actions by the
U.S. or a foreign government, could prohibit or otherwise restrict persons from holding the securities or any securities included in an
Underlying Index, or engaging in transactions |
Contingent Income Auto-Callable Securities due December 18, 2025
Based on the Worst Performing of the S&P 500® Index, the Russell 2000® Index and the EURO STOXX 50® Index Principal at Risk Securities
therein, and any such action could adversely
affect the level of an Underlying Index or the securities. These regulatory actions could result in restrictions on the securities and
could result in the loss of a significant portion or all of your initial investment in the securities, including if you are forced to
divest the securities due to the government mandates, especially if such divestment must be made at a time when the value of the securities
has declined.
| · | Adjustments to the Underlying Indices could adversely
affect the value of the securities. The publisher of each Underlying Index can add, delete or substitute the stocks constituting such
Underlying Index, and can make other methodological changes that could change the value of such Underlying Index. Any of these actions
could adversely affect the value of the securities. The publisher of each Underlying Index may discontinue or suspend calculation or publication
of such Underlying Index at any time. In these circumstances, we, as the calculation agent, will have the sole discretion to substitute
a successor index that is comparable to the discontinued index. We could have an economic interest that is different than that of investors
in the securities insofar as, for example, we are permitted to consider indices that are calculated and published by us or any of our
affiliates. If we determine that there is no appropriate successor index, the determination of whether a Contingent Quarterly Coupon
will be payable on the securities on the applicable Coupon Payment Date, and/or the payout at maturity on the securities will be an amount
based on the closing prices on each date that the value of such Underlying Index is to be calculated of the stocks underlying such discontinued
index at the time of such discontinuance, without rebalancing or substitution, computed by us in accordance with the formula for and method
of calculating such Underlying Index last in effect prior to the discontinuance, as compared to the Coupon Barrier Level or Downside Threshold
Level, as applicable (depending also on the performance of the other Underlying Indices). |
Conflicts of Interest
| · | Certain business, trading and hedging activities of us and our affiliates
may create conflicts with your interests and could potentially adversely affect the value of the securities. We and our affiliates
may engage in trading and other business activities related to an Underlying Index or any securities included in an Underlying Index that
are not for your account or on your behalf. We and our affiliates also may issue or underwrite other financial instruments with returns
based upon an Underlying Index. These activities may present a conflict of interest between your interest in the securities and the interests
that we and our affiliates may have in our or their proprietary accounts, in facilitating transactions, including block trades, for our
or their other customers, and in accounts under our or their management. In addition, we and our affiliates may publish research, express
opinions or provide recommendations that are inconsistent with investing in or holding the securities, and which may be revised at any
time without notice to you. Any such research, opinions or recommendations could adversely affect the level of an Underlying Index, and
therefore, the market value of the securities. These trading and other business activities, if they adversely affect the level of an Underlying
Index or secondary trading in your securities, could be adverse to your interests as a beneficial owner of the securities. |
Moreover, we and our affiliates play a variety of roles in
connection with the issuance of the securities, including hedging our obligations under the securities and making the assumptions and
inputs used to determine the pricing of the securities and the initial estimated value of the securities when the terms of the securities
were set. We expect to hedge our obligations under the securities through CIBCWM, one of our other affiliates, and/or another unaffiliated
counterparty, which may include any dealer from which you purchase the securities. Any of these hedging activities may adversely affect
the level of an Underlying Index and therefore the market value of the securities and the amount you will receive, if any, on the securities.
In connection with such activities, the economic interests of us and our affiliates may be adverse to your interests as an investor in
the securities. Any of these activities may adversely affect the value of the securities. In addition, because hedging our obligations
entails risk and may be influenced by market forces beyond our control, this hedging activity may result in a profit that is more or less
than expected, or it may result in a loss. We, one or more of our affiliates or any unaffiliated counterparty will retain any profits
realized in hedging our obligations under the securities even if investors do not receive a favorable investment return under the terms
of the securities or in any secondary market transaction. Any profit in connection with such hedging activities will be in addition to
any other compensation that we, our affiliates or any unaffiliated counterparty receive for the sale of the securities, which creates
an additional incentive to sell the securities to you. We, our affiliates or any unaffiliated counterparty will have no obligation to
take, refrain from taking or cease taking any action with respect to these transactions based on the potential effect on an investor in
the securities.
| · | There are potential conflicts of interest between you and the calculation
agent. The calculation agent will determine, among other things, the amount of payments on the securities. The calculation agent will
exercise its judgment when performing its functions. For example, the calculation agent will determine whether a Market Disruption Event
has occurred on an Observation Date with respect to any Underlying Index, and determine the level of an Underlying Index if a scheduled
Observation Date is postponed to the last possible day for that Underlying Index. See “Certain Terms of the Notes—Valuation
Dates—For Notes Where the Reference Asset Consists of Multiple Indices” in the underlying supplement. These determinations
may, in turn, depend on the calculation agent’s judgment as to whether the event has materially interfered with our ability or the
ability of one of our affiliates to unwind our hedge positions. The calculation agent will be required to carry out its duties in good
faith and use its reasonable judgment. However, because we will be the calculation agent, potential conflicts of interest could arise.
None of us, CIBCWM or any of our other affiliates will have any obligation to consider your interests as a holder of the securities in
taking any action that might affect the value of your securities. |
General Risks
| · | Payments on the securities are subject to our credit risk, and actual or
perceived changes in our creditworthiness are expected to affect the value of the securities. The securities are our senior unsecured
debt obligations and are not, either directly or |
Contingent Income Auto-Callable Securities due December 18, 2025
Based on the Worst Performing of the S&P 500® Index, the Russell 2000® Index and the EURO STOXX 50® Index Principal at Risk Securities
indirectly, an obligation of any third
party. As further described in the accompanying prospectus and prospectus supplement, the securities will rank on par with all of our
other unsecured and unsubordinated debt obligations, except such obligations as may be preferred by operation of law. Any payments to
be made on the securities depend on our ability to satisfy our obligations as they come due. As a result, the actual and perceived creditworthiness
of us may affect the market value of the securities and, in the event we were to default on our obligations, you may not receive the amounts
owed to you under the terms of the securities. If we default on our obligations under the securities, your investment would be at risk
and you could lose some or all of your investment. See “Description of Senior Debt Securities—Events of Default” in
the accompanying prospectus.
| · | The Bank’s initial estimated value of the securities is lower than
the initial issue price (price to public) of the securities. The initial issue price of the securities exceeds the Bank’s initial
estimated value because costs associated with selling and structuring the securities, as well as hedging the securities, are included
in the initial issue price of the securities. See “Additional Information About the Securities—The Bank’s Estimated
Value of the Securities” beginning on page 25 of this pricing supplement. |
| · | The Bank’s initial estimated value does not represent future values
of the securities and may differ from others’ estimates. The Bank’s initial estimated value of the securities is only
an estimate, which was determined by reference to the Bank’s internal pricing models when the terms of the securities were set.
This estimated value was based on market conditions and other relevant factors existing at that time, the Bank’s internal funding
rate on the Pricing Date and the Bank’s assumptions about market parameters, which can include volatility, dividend rates, interest
rates and other factors. Different pricing models and assumptions could provide valuations for the securities that are greater or less
than the Bank’s initial estimated value. In addition, market conditions and other relevant factors in the future may change, and
any assumptions may prove to be incorrect. On future dates, the market value of the securities could change significantly based on, among
other things, changes in market conditions, including the levels of the Underlying Indices, the Bank’s creditworthiness, interest
rate movements and other relevant factors, which may impact the price at which CIBCWM or any other party would be willing to buy the securities
from you in any secondary market transactions. The Bank’s initial estimated value does not represent a minimum price at which CIBCWM
or any other party would be willing to buy the securities in any secondary market (if any exists) at any time. See “Additional Information
About the Securities—The Bank’s Estimated Value of the Securities” beginning on page 25 of this pricing supplement. |
| · | The Bank’s initial estimated value of the securities was not determined
by reference to credit spreads for our conventional fixed-rate debt. The internal funding rate used in the determination of the Bank’s
initial estimated value of the securities generally represents a discount from the credit spreads for our conventional fixed-rate debt.
The discount is based on, among other things, our view of the funding value of the securities as well as the higher issuance, operational
and ongoing liability management costs of the securities in comparison to those costs for our conventional fixed-rate debt. If the Bank
were to have used the interest rate implied by our conventional fixed-rate debt, we would expect the economic terms of the securities
to be more favorable to you. Consequently, our use of an internal funding rate for market-linked securities had an adverse effect on the
economic terms of the securities and the initial estimated value of the securities on the Pricing Date, and could have an adverse effect
on any secondary market prices of the securities. See “Additional Information About the Securities—The Bank’s Estimated
Value of the Securities” beginning on page 25 of this pricing supplement. |
| · | If CIBCWM were to repurchase your securities after the Original Issue Date,
the price may be higher than the then-current estimated value of the securities for a limited time period. While CIBCWM may make markets
in the securities, it is under no obligation to do so and may discontinue any market-making activities at any time without notice. The
price that it makes available from time to time after the Original Issue Date at which it would be willing to repurchase the securities
will generally reflect its estimate of their value. That estimated value will be based upon a variety of factors, including then prevailing
market conditions, our creditworthiness and transaction costs. However, for a period of approximately 6 months after the Pricing Date,
the price at which CIBCWM may repurchase the securities is expected to be higher than their estimated value at that time. This is because,
at the beginning of this period, that price will not include certain costs that were included in the initial issue price, particularly
our hedging costs and profits. As the period continues, these costs are expected to be gradually included in the price that CIBCWM would
be willing to pay, and the difference between that price and CIBCWM’s estimate of the value of the securities will decrease over
time until the end of this period. After this period, if CIBCWM continues to make a market in the securities, the prices that it would
pay for them are expected to reflect its estimated value, as well as customary bid-ask spreads for similar trades. In addition, the value
of the securities shown on your account statement may not be identical to the price at which CIBCWM would be willing to purchase the securities
at that time, and could be lower than CIBCWM’s price. |
| · | Economic and market factors may adversely affect the terms and market price
of the securities prior to maturity or early redemption. Because structured notes, including the securities, can be thought of as
having a debt and derivative component, factors that influence the values of debt instruments and options and other derivatives will also
affect the terms and features of the securities at issuance and the market price of the securities prior to maturity or early redemption.
These factors include the levels of the Underlying Indices; the volatility of the Underlying Indices; the dividend rates paid on the securities
included in an Underlying Index; the time remaining to the maturity or early redemption of the securities; interest rates in the markets
in general; geopolitical conditions and economic, financial, political, regulatory, judicial or other events; and the creditworthiness
of CIBC. These and other factors are unpredictable and interrelated and may offset or magnify each other. |
| · | The securities will not be listed on any securities exchange and we do
not expect a trading market for the securities to develop. The securities will not be listed on any securities exchange. Although
CIBCWM and/or its affiliates may purchase the securities from holders, they are not obligated to do so and are not required to make a
market for the securities. There can be no |
Contingent Income Auto-Callable Securities due December 18, 2025
Based on the Worst Performing of the S&P 500® Index, the Russell 2000® Index and the EURO STOXX 50® Index Principal at Risk Securities
assurance that a secondary market will
develop for the securities. Because we do not expect that any market makers will participate in a secondary market for the securities,
the price at which you may be able to sell your securities is likely to depend on the price, if any, at which CIBCWM and/or its affiliates
are willing to buy your securities.
If a secondary market does exist, it may be limited. Accordingly,
there may be a limited number of buyers if you decide to sell your securities prior to maturity or early redemption. This may affect the
price you receive upon such sale. Consequently, you should be willing to hold the securities to maturity or early redemption.
Tax Risks
| · | The tax treatment of the securities is uncertain. Significant aspects
of the tax treatment of the securities are uncertain. You should consult your tax advisor about your own tax situation. See “Additional
Information About the Securities — United States Federal Income Tax Considerations” and “— Certain Canadian Federal
Income Tax Considerations” in this pricing supplement, “Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences” in the underlying
supplement and “Material Income Tax Consequences—Canadian Taxation” in the prospectus. |

| United
States Federal Income Tax Considerations: |
The following discussion is a brief summary of the material U.S. federal
income tax considerations relating to an investment in the securities. The following summary is not complete and is both qualified and
supplemented by (although to the extent inconsistent supersedes) the discussion entitled “Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences”
in the underlying supplement, which you should carefully review prior to investing in the securities. It applies only to those U.S. Holders
who are not excluded from the discussion of United States Taxation in the accompanying prospectus.
The U.S. federal income tax considerations of your investment in the
securities are uncertain. No statutory, judicial or administrative authority directly discusses how the securities should be treated for
U.S. federal income tax purposes. In the opinion of our tax counsel, Mayer Brown LLP, it would generally be reasonable to treat the securities
as prepaid derivative contracts. Pursuant to the terms of the securities, you agree to treat the securities in this manner for all U.S.
federal income tax purposes. If this treatment is respected, you should generally recognize capital gain or loss upon the sale, exchange,
cash redemption or payment upon maturity in an amount equal to the difference between the amount you receive in such transaction (other
than amounts representing accrued but unpaid Contingent Quarterly Coupons) and the amount that you paid for your securities. Such gain
or loss should generally be treated as long-term capital gain or loss if you have held your securities for more than one year. Although
the tax treatment of the Contingent Quarterly Coupons is unclear, we intend to treat any Contingent Quarterly Coupons, including at maturity
or upon an early redemption, as ordinary income includible in income by you at the time it accrues or is received in accordance with your
normal method of accounting for U.S. federal income tax purposes.
The expected characterization of the securities is not binding on the
U.S. Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) or the courts. It is possible that the IRS would seek to characterize the securities
in a manner that results in tax consequences to you that are different from those described above or in the accompanying underlying supplement.
For a more detailed discussion of certain alternative characterizations with respect to the securities and certain other considerations
with respect to an investment in the securities, you should consider the discussion set forth in “Material U.S. Federal Income Tax
Consequences” of the underlying supplement. We are not responsible for any adverse consequences that you may experience as a result
of any alternative characterization of the securities for U.S. federal income tax or other tax purposes.
Based on our determination that the securities are not “delta-one”
instruments, Non-U.S. Holders should not be subject to withholding on dividend equivalent payments, if any, under the securities. For
a more detailed discussion of withholding responsibilities on dividend equivalent payments, Non-U.S. Holders should consult the section
entitled “Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences—Non-U.S. Holders” in the underlying supplement and consult with
their own tax advisors.
You should consult your tax advisor as to the tax consequences of
such characterization and any possible alternative characterizations of the securities for U.S. federal income tax purposes. You should
also consult your tax advisor concerning the U.S. federal income tax and other tax consequences of your investment in the securities in
your particular circumstances, including the application of state, local or other tax laws and the possible effects of changes in federal
or other tax laws. |
| Certain
Canadian Federal Income Tax Considerations: |
In the opinion of Blake, Cassels & Graydon LLP, our Canadian tax counsel, the following summary describes the principal Canadian federal income tax considerations under the Income Tax Act (Canada) and the regulations thereto (the “Canadian Tax Act”) generally applicable at the date hereof to a purchaser who acquires beneficial ownership of a security pursuant to this pricing supplement and who for the purposes of the Canadian Tax Act and at all relevant times: (a) is neither resident nor deemed to be resident in Canada; (b) deals at arm’s length with CIBC and any transferee resident (or deemed to be resident) in Canada to whom the purchaser disposes of the security; (c) does not use or hold and is not deemed to use or hold the security in, or in the course of, carrying on a business in Canada; (d) is entitled to receive all payments (including any interest and principal) made on the security; (e) is not a, and deals at arm’s length with any, “specified shareholder” of CIBC for purposes of the thin capitalization rules in the Canadian Tax Act; and (f) is not an entity in respect of which CIBC or any transferee resident (or deemed to be resident) in Canada to whom the purchaser disposes of, loans or otherwise transfers the security is a “specified entity”, and is not a “specified entity” in respect of such a transferee, in each case, for purposes of the Hybrid Mismatch Rules, as defined below (a “Non-Resident |
Contingent Income Auto-Callable Securities due December 18, 2025
Based on the Worst Performing of the S&P 500® Index, the Russell 2000® Index and the EURO STOXX 50® Index Principal at Risk Securities
| |
Holder”). Special rules which apply to
non-resident insurers carrying on business in Canada and elsewhere are not discussed in this summary.
This summary assumes that no amount paid or payable
to a holder described herein will be the deduction component of a “hybrid mismatch arrangement” under which the payment arises
within the meaning of the rules in the Canadian Tax Act with respect to “hybrid mismatch arrangements” (the “Hybrid
Mismatch Rules”). Investors should note that the Hybrid Mismatch Rules are highly complex and there remains significant uncertainty
as to their interpretation and application.
This summary is supplemental to and should be
read together with the description of material Canadian federal income tax considerations relevant to a Non-Resident Holder owning securities
under “Material Income Tax Consequences—Canadian Taxation” in the accompanying prospectus and a Non-Resident Holder
should carefully read that description as well.
This summary is of a general nature only and is
not intended to be, nor should it be construed to be, legal or tax advice to any particular Non-Resident Holder. Non-Resident Holders
are advised to consult with their own tax advisors with respect to their particular circumstances.
Based on Canadian tax counsel’s understanding
of the Canada Revenue Agency’s administrative policies and having regard to the terms of the securities, interest payable on the
securities should not be considered to be “participating debt interest” as defined in the Canadian Tax Act and accordingly,
a Non-Resident Holder should not be subject to Canadian non-resident withholding tax in respect of amounts paid or credited or deemed
to have been paid or credited by CIBC on a security as, on account of or in lieu of payment of, or in satisfaction of, interest.
Non-Resident Holders should consult their own advisors regarding the
consequences to them of a disposition of the securities to a person with whom they are not dealing at arm’s length for purposes
of the Canadian Tax Act. |
| Supplemental
Plan of Distribution (Conflicts of Interest): |
Pursuant to the terms of a distribution
agreement, CIBCWM will purchase the securities from CIBC for distribution to Morgan Stanley Wealth Management. Morgan Stanley Wealth Management
and its financial advisors will collectively receive from CIBCWM a fixed sales commission of $12.50 for each security they sell. In addition,
Morgan Stanley Wealth Management will receive a structuring fee of $5.00 for each security. The costs included in the original issue price
of the securities will also include a fee paid by CIBCWM to LFT Securities, LLC, an entity in which an affiliate of Morgan Stanley Wealth
Management has an ownership interest for providing certain electronic platform services with respect to this offering.
CIBCWM is our affiliate, and is deemed
to have a conflict of interest under FINRA Rule 5121. In accordance with FINRA Rule 5121, CIBCWM may not make sales in this
offering to any of its discretionary accounts without the prior written approval of the customer.
We will deliver the securities against
payment therefor in New York, New York on a date that is more than one business day following the Pricing Date. Under Rule 15c6-1
of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, trades in the secondary market generally are required to settle in one business day, unless the
parties to any such trade expressly agree otherwise. Accordingly, purchasers who wish to trade the securities on any date prior to one
business day before delivery will be required to specify alternative settlement arrangements to prevent a failed settlement.
The Bank may use this pricing supplement
in the initial sale of the securities. In addition, CIBCWM or another of the Bank’s affiliates may use this pricing supplement in
market-making transactions in any securities after their initial sale. Unless CIBCWM or we inform you otherwise in the confirmation of
sale, this pricing supplement is being used by CIBCWM in a market-making transaction.
While CIBCWM may make markets in the securities,
it is under no obligation to do so and may discontinue any market-making activities at any time without notice. See the section titled
“Supplemental Plan of Distribution (Conflicts of Interest)” in the accompanying prospectus supplement.
The price at which you purchase the securities includes costs that the
Bank or its affiliates expect to incur and profits that the Bank or its affiliates expect to realize in connection with hedging activities
related to the securities. These costs and profits will likely reduce the secondary market price, if any secondary market develops, for
the securities. As a result, you may experience an immediate and substantial decline in the market value of your securities on the Original
Issue Date. |
| The
Bank’s Estimated Value of the Securities: |
The Bank’s initial estimated value of the securities set forth on the cover of this pricing supplement is equal to the sum of the values of the following hypothetical components: (1) a fixed-income debt component with the same maturity as the securities, valued using our internal funding rate for structured |
Contingent Income Auto-Callable Securities due December 18, 2025
Based on the Worst Performing of the S&P 500® Index, the Russell 2000® Index and the EURO STOXX 50® Index Principal at Risk Securities
| |
debt described below, and (2) the
derivative or derivatives underlying the economic terms of the securities. The Bank’s initial estimated value does not represent
a minimum price at which CIBCWM or any other person would be willing to buy your securities in any secondary market (if any exists) at
any time. The internal funding rate used in the determination of the Bank’s initial estimated value generally represents a discount
from the credit spreads for our conventional fixed-rate debt. The discount is based on, among other things, our view of the funding value
of the securities as well as the higher issuance, operational and ongoing liability management costs of the securities in comparison to
those costs for our conventional fixed-rate debt. For additional information, see “Risk Factors—The Bank’s initial estimated
value of the securities was not determined by reference to credit spreads for our conventional fixed-rate debt” in this pricing
supplement. The value of the derivative or derivatives underlying the economic terms of the securities is derived from the Bank’s
or a third party hedge provider’s internal pricing models. These models are dependent on inputs such as the traded market prices
of comparable derivative instruments and on various other inputs, some of which are market-observable, and which can include volatility,
dividend rates, interest rates and other factors, as well as assumptions about future market events and/or environments. Accordingly,
the Bank’s initial estimated value of the securities was determined when the terms of the securities were set based on market conditions
and other relevant factors and assumptions existing at that time. See “Risk Factors—The Bank’s initial estimated value
does not represent future values of the securities and may differ from others’ estimates” in this pricing supplement.
The Bank’s initial estimated value
of the securities is lower than the initial issue price of the securities because costs associated with selling, structuring and hedging
the securities are included in the initial issue price of the securities. These costs include the selling commissions paid to CIBCWM and
other affiliated or unaffiliated dealers, the projected profits that our hedge counterparties, which may include our affiliates, expect
to realize for assuming risks inherent in hedging our obligations under the securities and the estimated cost of hedging our obligations
under the securities. Because hedging our obligations entails risk and may be influenced by market forces beyond our control, this hedging
may result in a profit that is more or less than expected, or it may result in a loss. We or one or more of our affiliates will retain
any profits realized in hedging our obligations under the securities. See “Risk Factors—The Bank’s initial estimated
value of the securities is lower than the initial issue price (price to public) of the securities” in this pricing supplement. |
