Autocallable Contingent Coupon (with Memory) Notes Linked to a Basket of Three Financial Sector Stocks
Issuer Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce (“CIBC”)
Principal Amount $10.00 per unit
Term Approximately 18 months, if not called
Market Measure An approximately equally weighted basket of three financial sector stocks comprised of the common stock of each of Morgan Stanley (NYSE symbol: “MS”), The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. (NYSE symbol: “GS”) and JPMorgan Chase & Co. (NYSE symbol: “JPM”) (each, a “Basket Stock”).
Coupon Value: 90% of the Starting Value
Threshold Value: 100% of the Starting Value
Call Value: 100% of the Starting Value
Automatic Call The notes will be called automatically if the Observation Value of the Market Measure on any Call Observation Date is equal to or greater than the Call Value.
Call Amount: The principal amount plus the Contingent Coupon Payment (with Memory) otherwise due on the applicable Call Settlement Date.
Contingent Coupon Payments (with Memory): The notes will pay a Contingent Coupon Payment (with Memory) on the applicable Coupon Payment Date if the Observation Value of the Market Measure on the applicable quarterly Coupon Observation Date is greater than or equal to the Coupon Value. The Contingent Coupon Payment (with Memory) payable on any Coupon Payment Date will be calculated according to the following formula: (i) the product of the Contingent Coupon Payment (with Memory) applicable to a single Coupon Payment Date times the number of Coupon Payment Dates that have occurred up to the relevant Coupon Payment Date (inclusive of the relevant Coupon Payment Date) minus (ii) the sum of all Contingent Coupon Payments (with Memory) previously paid. The Contingent Coupon Payment (with Memory) applicable to a single Coupon Payment Date will be [$0.225 to $0.250] per unit.
Coupon Observation Dates: Quarterly during the term of the notes.
Call Observation Dates: The Coupon Observation Dates beginning approximately six months after the pricing date.
Payout Profile at Maturity

·  A return of principal plus the final Contingent Coupon Payment (with Memory) if the Market Measure does not decrease from the Starting Value

· 1-to-1 downside exposure to decreases in the Market Measure, with up to 100% of your investment at risk

Investment Considerations This investment is designed for investors who are willing to forgo participation in any upside appreciation of the Market Measure, accept a return which will be limited to the Contingent Coupon Payments (with Memory) payable over the term of the notes, if any, take full downside, and have their notes called prior to maturity.

Risk Factors
Please see the Preliminary Offering Documents for a description of certain risks related to this investment, including, but not limited to, the following:

· Depending on the performance of the Market Measure as measured shortly before the maturity date, you may lose up to 100% of the principal amount.
· Your investment return is limited to the return represented by the Contingent Coupon Payments (with Memory) and may be less than a comparable investment directly in the Basket Stocks.
· Changes in the prices of the Basket Stocks may offset each other.
· You may not receive any Contingent Coupon Payments (with Memory).
· If the notes are called, you will be subject to reinvestment risk, and your ability to receive Contingent Coupon Payments (with Memory) over the term of the notes will be limited.
· Payments on the notes, including any repayment of principal, are subject to the credit risk of CIBC, and actual or perceived changes in the creditworthiness of CIBC are expected to affect the value of the notes. If CIBC becomes insolvent or is unable to pay its obligations, you may lose your entire investment.
· The initial estimated value of the notes on the pricing date will be less than their public offering price.
· If you attempt to sell the notes prior to maturity, their market value may be lower than both the public offering price and the initial estimated value of the notes on the pricing date.
· You will have no rights of a holder of the Basket Stocks, and you will not be entitled to receive shares of the Basket Stocks or dividends or other distributions by the issuers of the Basket Stocks.
· We do not control any company included in the Basket and have not verified any disclosure made by any such company. The companies included in the Basket will have no obligations relating to the notes.
· The Observation Values, the Ending Value and other terms of the notes will not be adjusted for all corporate events that could affect the Basket Stocks.
· The Basket is concentrated in the financial sector and an investment in the notes involves certain risks associated with an investment in companies in the financial sector.
