Pricing Supplement dated 24 July 2019

Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce
Legal Entity Identifier: 2IGI19DL77OX0HC3ZE78

Issue of USD 110,000 Index Linked Notes due September 2019

under a US$7,500,000,000 Note Issuance Programme
INVESTING IN THE NOTES PUTS YOUR CAPITAL AT RISK. YOU MAY LOSE SOME OR
ALL OF YOUR INVESTMENT.

The Offering Memorandum referred to below (as completed by this Pricing Supplement) has
been prepared on the basis that any offer of Notes in any Member State of the European
Economic Area which has implemented Directive 2003/71/EC (as amended or superseded, the
"Prospectus Directive") (each, a "Relevant Member State") will be made pursuant to an
exemption under the Prospectus Directive, as implemented in that Relevant Member State,
from the requirement to publish a prospectus for offers of the Notes. Accordingly any person
making or intending to make an offer in that Relevant Member State of the Notes may only do
so in circumstances in which no obligation arises for the Issuer or any Dealer to publish a
prospectus pursuant to Article 3 of the Prospectus Directive or supplement a prospectus
pursuant to Article 16 of the Prospectus Directive, in each case, in relation to such offer. Neither
the Issuer nor any Dealer has authorized, nor do they authorize, the making of any offer of
Notes in any other circumstances.
MIFID II product governance/Retail investors, professional investors and ECPs target
market Solely for the purposes of the manufacturer's product approval process, the target
market assessment in respect of the Notes has led to the conclusion that: (i) the target market
for the Notes is eligible counterparties and professional clients, each as defined in Directive
2014/65/EU (as amended, "MiFID II"); and (ii) all channels for distribution to eligible
counterparties and professional clients are appropriate. Any person subsequently offering,
selling or recommending the Notes (a "distributor") should take into consideration the
manufacturer's target market assessment; however, a distributor subject to MiFID II is
responsible for undertaking its own target market assessment in respect of the Notes (by either
adopting or refining the manufacturer's target market assessment) and determining appropriate
distribution channels, subject to the distributor's suitability and appropriateness obligations
under MiFID II, as applicable.
PROHIBITION OF SALES TO EEA RETAIL INVESTORS
The Notes are not intended to be offered, sold or otherwise made available to and should not be
offered, sold or otherwise made available to any retail investor in the European Economic Area
("EEA"). For these purposes, a retail investor means a person who is one (or more) of: (i) a retail
client as defined in point (11) of Article 4(1) of MiFID II; (ii) a customer within the meaning of
Directive 2002/92/EC ("IMD"), where that customer would not qualify as a professional client as
defined in point (10) of Article 4(1) of MiFID II; or (iii) not a qualified investor as defined in the
Prospectus Directive. Consequently no key information document required by Regulation (EU)
No 1286/2014 (the "PRIIPs Regulation") for offering or selling the Notes or otherwise making
them available to retail investors in the EEA has been prepared and therefore offering or selling
the Notes or otherwise making them available to any retail investor in the EEA may be unlawful
under the PRIIPs Regulation.
The purchase of Notes involves substantial risks and is suitable only for investors who have
the knowledge and experience in financial and business matters necessary to enable them to
evaluate the risks and the merits of an investment in the Notes. Before making an investment
decision, prospective purchasers of Notes should ensure that they understand the nature of the
Notes and the extent of their exposure to risks and that they consider carefully, in the light of

information set forth in the Offering Memorandum (including "Risk Factors" on pages 23 to 72
thereof) and this Pricing Supplement.

documents shall be read together.
The information included herein with respect to indices and/or formulas comprising, based on
or referring to variations in the prices of one or more shares in companies, any other equity or
non-equity securities, currencies or currency exchange rates, interest rates, credit risks, fund
units, shares in investment companies, term deposits, life insurance contracts, loans,

Underlyings, no facts have been omitted that would render the reproduced extracts or

responsibility in respect of the accuracy or completeness of the information set forth herein
concerning the Underlyings of the Notes or that there has not occurred any event which would

prospective investor in Notes must ensure that the complexity and risks inherent in the Notes
are suitable for its investment objectives and are appropriate for itself or the size, nature and
condition of its business, as the case may be. No person should deal in the Notes unless that
person understands the nature of the relevant transaction and the extent of that person's
exposure to potential loss. Each prospective purchaser of Notes should consider carefully
whether the Notes are suitable for it in light of its circumstances and financial position.
Prospective investors in Notes should consult their own legal, tax, accountancy and other
professional advisers to assist them in determining the suitability of the Notes for them as an
