T he not e s do not be a r int e re st . The amount that you will be paid on your notes on the stated maturity date (March 3, 2022, subject to adjustment) is
based on the performance of a weighted basket comprised of the EURO STOXX 50® Index (36.00% weighting), the TOPIX (27.00% weighting), the
FTSE® 100 Index (19.00% weighting), the Swiss Market Index (10.00% weighting) and the S&P/ASX 200 Index (8.00% weighting) (the "basket") as
measured from the trade date to and including the determination date (March 1, 2022, subject to adjustment). The initial basket level is 100 and the final
basket level will equal the sum of the products, as calculated for each basket underlier, of: (i) the final basket underlier level divided by the initial basket
underlier level (set on the trade date and equal to the closing level of the basket underlier on the trade date) multiplied by (ii) the applicable initial weighted
value for the basket underlier. If the final basket level on the determination date is greater than the initial basket level, the return on your notes will be
positive, subject to the maximum settlement amount ($1,384.00 for each $1,000 face amount of your notes). If the final basket level declines by up to
20.00% from the initial basket level, you will receive the face amount of your notes. I f t he fina l ba sk e t le ve l de c line s by m ore t ha n 2 0 .0 0 %

To determine your payment at maturity, we will calculate the basket return, which is the percentage increase or decrease in the final basket level from the
initial basket level. On the stated maturity date, for each $1,000 face amount of your notes, you will receive an amount in cash equal to:

·
if the basket return is

positive (i.e. the final basket level is greater than the initial basket level), the sum of (i) $1,000 plus (ii) the product of
(a) $1,000 times (b) 2.0 times (c) the basket return, subject to the maximum settlement amount;

·
if the basket return is

zero or negative but not below -20.00% (i.e. the final basket level is equal to or is less than the initial basket level, but not by
more than 20.00%), $1,000; or

·
if the basket return is

negative and is below -20.00% (i.e. the final basket level is less than the initial basket level by more than 20.00%), the sum of
(i) $1,000 plus (ii) the product of (a) 1.25 times (b) the sum of the basket return plus 20.00% times (c) $1,000.

Fa c e a m ount : each note will have a face amount of $1,000; $12,643,000 in the aggregate for all the offered notes; the
aggregate face amount of the offered notes may be increased if the Issuer, at its sole option, decides to sell an additional amount

Purc ha se a t a m ount ot he r t ha n fa c e a m ount : the amount we will pay you on the stated maturity date for your notes will
not be adjusted based on the issue price you pay for your notes, so if you acquire notes at a premium (or a discount) to face
amount and hold them to the stated maturity date, it could affect your investment in a number of ways. The return on your
investment in such notes will be lower (or higher) than it would have been had you purchased the notes at face amount. Also, the
stated buffer level would not offer the same measure of protection to your investment as would be the case if you had purchased
the notes at face amount. Additionally, the cap level would be triggered at a lower (or higher) percentage return than indicated
below, relative to your initial investment. See "Additional Risk Factors Specific to Your Notes -- If You Purchase Your Notes at a
Premium to Face Amount, the Return on Your Investment Will Be Lower Than the Return on Notes Purchased at Face Amount and
the Impact of Certain Key Terms of the Notes Will Be Negatively Affected" in this Pricing Supplement.

The following examples are provided for purposes of illustration only. They should not be taken as an indication or prediction of
future investment results and merely are intended to illustrate the impact that the various hypothetical basket closing levels or
hypothetical closing levels of the basket underliers, as applicable, on the determination date could have on the cash settlement
amount at maturity assuming all other variables remain constant.

The examples below are based on a range of final basket levels and closing levels of the basket underliers that are entirely
hypothetical; no one can predict what the level of the basket will be on any day throughout the life of your notes, and no one can
predict what the final basket level will be on the determination date. The basket underliers have been highly volatile in the past --
meaning that the levels of the basket underliers have changed considerably in relatively short periods -- and their performances
cannot be predicted for any future period.

The information in the following examples reflects hypothetical rates of return on the offered notes assuming that they are
purchased on the original issue date at the face amount and held to the stated maturity date. If you sell your notes in a secondary
market prior to the stated maturity date, your return will depend upon the market value of your notes at the time of sale, which may
be affected by a number of factors that are not reflected in the table below, such as interest rates, the volatility of the basket
underliers and the creditworthiness of CIBC. In addition, the estimated value of your notes at the time the terms of your notes were
set on the trade date (as determined by reference to pricing models used by CIBC) is less than the original issue price of your
notes. For more information on the estimated value of your notes, see "Additional Risk Factors Specific to Your Notes -- The
Bank's Estimated Value of the Notes Is Lower Than the Original Issue Price (Price to Public) of the Notes" in this Pricing
Supplement and "The Bank's Estimated Value of the Notes" in this Pricing Supplement. The information in the following

The actual performance of the basket over the life of your notes, as well as the cash settlement amount payable at maturity, if any,
may bear little relation to the hypothetical examples shown below or to the historical level of each basket underlier shown
elsewhere in this Pricing Supplement. For information about the historical level of each basket underlier during recent periods, see
"The Basket and the Basket Underliers -- Historical Closing Levels of the Basket Underliers" below. Before investing in the offered
notes, you should consult publicly available information to determine the level of the basket

underliers between the date of this Pricing Supplement and the date of your purchase of the offered notes.

Also, the hypothetical examples shown below do not take into account the effects of applicable taxes. Because of the U.S. tax
treatment applicable to your notes, tax liabilities could affect the after-tax rate of return on your notes to a comparatively greater
extent than the after-tax return on the basket underliers.

The levels in the left column of the table below represent hypothetical final basket levels and are expressed as percentages of the
initial basket level. The amounts in the right column represent the hypothetical cash settlement amounts, based on the
corresponding hypothetical final basket level (expressed as a percentage of the initial basket level), and are expressed as
percentages of the face amount of a note (rounded to the nearest one-thousandth of a percent). Thus, a hypothetical cash
settlement amount of 100.000% means that the value of the cash payment that we would deliver for each $1,000 of the
outstanding face amount of the offered notes on the stated maturity date would equal 100.000% of the face amount of a note,
based on the corresponding hypothetical final basket level (expressed as a percentage of the initial basket level) and the
assumptions noted above.

If, for example, the final basket level were determined to be 25.000% of the initial basket level, the cash settlement amount that we
would deliver on your notes at maturity would be 31.250% of the face amount of your notes, as shown in the table above. As a
result, if you purchased your notes on the original issue date at the face amount and held them to the stated maturity date, you
would lose 68.750% of your investment (if you purchased your notes at a premium to face amount you would lose a
correspondingly higher percentage of your investment). In addition, if the final basket level were determined to be 200.000% of the
initial basket level, the cash settlement amount that we would deliver on your notes at maturity would be capped at the maximum
settlement amount (expressed as a percentage of the face amount), or 138.400% of each $1,000 face amount of your notes, as
shown in the table above. As a result, if you held your notes to the stated maturity date, you would not benefit from any final
basket level that is greater than or equal to 119.200% of the initial basket level.

hypothetical final basket level (expressed as a percentage of the initial basket level) of less than 80.000% (the section left of the
80.000% marker on the horizontal axis) would result in a hypothetical cash settlement amount of less than 100.000% of the face
amount of your notes (the section below the 100.000% marker on the vertical axis) and, accordingly, in a loss of principal to the
holder of the notes. The chart also shows that any hypothetical final basket level (expressed as a percentage of the initial basket
level) of greater than or equal to 119.200% (the section right of the 119.200% marker on the horizontal axis) would result in a
capped return on your investment.


The following examples illustrate the hypothetical cash settlement amount at maturity for each note based on hypothetical final
levels of the basket underliers, calculated based on the key terms and assumptions above. The levels in Column A represent
hypothetical initial levels for each basket underlier, and the levels in Column B represent hypothetical final levels for each basket
underlier. The percentages in Column C represent hypothetical final levels for each basket underlier in Column B expressed as
percentages of the corresponding hypothetical initial levels in Column A. The amounts in Column D represent the applicable initial
weighted value for each basket underlier, and the amounts in Column E represent the products of the percentages in Column C
times the corresponding amounts in Column D. The final basket level for each example is shown beneath each example, and will
equal the sum of the products shown in Column E. The basket return for each example is shown beneath the final basket level for
such example, and will equal the quotient of (i) the final basket level for such example minus the initial basket level divided by
(ii) the initial basket level, expressed as a percentage. The values below have been rounded for ease of analysis.

The hypothetical initial level for each basket underlier of 100.00 has been chosen for illustrative purposes only and does not
represent the actual initial level for that basket underlier. For historical data regarding the actual historical levels of the basket
underliers, please see the historical information set forth below under "The Basket and the Basket Underliers."

In this example, all of the hypothetical final levels for the basket underliers are greater than the applicable hypothetical initial levels,
which results in the hypothetical final basket level being greater than the initial basket level of 100.00. Since the hypothetical final
basket level was determined to be 200.00, the hypothetical cash settlement amount that we would deliver on your notes at maturity
would be capped at the maximum settlement amount of $1,384.00 for each $1,000 face amount of your notes (i.e. 138.400% of

In this example, the hypothetical final level of the EURO STOXX 50® Index is less than its hypothetical initial level, while the
hypothetical final levels of the TOPIX and the FTSE® 100 Index are equal to their applicable hypothetical initial levels and the
hypothetical final levels of the Swiss Market Index and S&P/ASX 200 Index are greater than their applicable initial levels.

Because the basket is unequally weighted, increases in the lower weighted basket underliers will be offset by decreases in the
more heavily weighted basket underliers. In this example, the large decline in the EURO STOXX 50® Index results in the
hypothetical final basket level being less than the buffer level of 80.00% of the initial basket level even though the TOPIX and the
FTSE® 100 Index remained flat and the Swiss Market Index and the S&P/ASX 200 Index increased.

Since the hypothetical final basket level of 77.50 is less than the buffer level of 80.00% of the initial basket level, the hypothetical
cash settlement amount for each $1,000 face amount of your notes will equal:

Cash settlement amount = $1,000 + ($1,000 × 100/80 × (-22.50% + 20.00%)) = $968.75

In this example, the hypothetical final levels for all of the basket underliers are less than the applicable hypothetical initial levels,
which results in the hypothetical final basket level being less than the initial basket level of 100.00. Since the hypothetical final
basket level of 56.50 is less than the buffer level of 80.00% of the initial basket level, the hypothetical cash settlement amount for
each $1,000 face amount of your notes will equal:

Cash settlement amount = $1,000 + ($1,000 × 100/80 × (-43.50% + 20.00%)) = $706.25

The cash settlement amounts shown above are entirely hypothetical; they are based on levels of the basket underliers that may not
be achieved on the determination date and on assumptions that may prove to be erroneous. The actual market value of your notes
on the stated maturity date or at any other time, including any time you may wish to sell your notes, may bear little relation to the
hypothetical cash settlement amounts shown above, and these amounts should not be viewed as an indication of the financial
return on an investment in the offered notes. The hypothetical cash settlement amounts on notes held to the stated maturity date in
the examples above assume you purchased your notes at their face amount and have not been adjusted to reflect the actual issue
price you pay for your notes. The return on your investment (whether positive or negative) in your notes will be affected by the
amount you pay for your notes. If you purchase your notes for a price other than the face amount, the return on your investment
will differ from, and may be significantly lower than, the hypothetical returns suggested by the above examples. Please read
