Autocal able Market-Linked Step Up Notes

Linked to the EURO STOXX 50 Index, due

February 27, 2023

Summary
The Autocallable Market-Linked Step Up Notes Linked to the EURO STOXX 50 Index, due February 27, 2023 (the "notes") are our senior unsecured debt
®
securities. The notes are not guaranteed or insured by the Canada Deposit Insurance Corporation, the U.S. Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any
other governmental agency of the United States, Canada or any other jurisdiction or secured by collateral. The notes are not bail-inable debt securities (as
defined on page 6 of the prospectus). The notes will rank equally with all of our other unsecured and unsubordinated debt. Any payments due on the
notes, including any repayment of principal, will be subject to the credit risk of CIBC. The notes will be automatically called at the applicable Call
Amount if the Observation Level of the Market Measure, which is the EURO STOXX 50 Index (the
®
Index
"
), is equal to or greater than the Call Level on the
"
relevant Observation Date. If the notes are not called, at maturity, the notes provide you with a Step Up Payment if the Ending Value of the Index is equal to or
greater than the Starting Value, but is not greater than the Step Up Value. If the Ending Value is greater than the Step Up Value, you will participate on a 1-for-
1 basis in the increase in the level of the Index above the Starting Value. If the Ending Value is less than the Starting Value, you will lose all or a portion of the
principal amount of your notes. Any payments on the notes will be calculated based on the $10 principal amount per unit and will depend on the performance
of the Index, subject to our credit risk. See T
" erms of the Notes below
"
.

The economic terms of the notes (including the Call Premiums and Call Amounts) are based on our internal funding rate, which is the rate we would pay to
borrow funds through the issuance of market-linked notes, and the economic terms of certain related hedging arrangements. Our internal funding rate is
typically lower than the rate we would pay when we issue conventional fixed rate debt securities. This difference in funding rate, as well as the underwriting
discount and the hedging related charge described below, reduced the economic terms of the notes to you and the initial estimated value of the notes on the
pricing date. Due to these factors, the public offering price you pay to purchase the notes is greater than the initial estimated value of the notes.

On the cover page of this term sheet, we have provided the initial estimated value for the notes. This initial estimated value was determined based on our
pricing models, and was based on our internal funding rate on the pricing date, market conditions and other relevant factors existing at that time, and our
assumptions about market parameters. For more information about the initial estimated value and the structuring of the notes, see "Structuring the Notes" on

Hypothetical Payout Profile and Examples of Payments at
Maturity
The graph below shows a payout profile at maturity, which would only apply if the notes are not called on any Observation
Date.

Autocallable Market-Linked Step Up Notes
This graph reflects the returns on the notes, based on the
Threshold Value of 100.00% of the Starting Value, the Step
Up Value of 135.00% of the Starting Value and the Step Up
Payment of $3.50 per unit. The green line reflects the returns
on the notes, while the dotted gray line reflects the returns of a
direct investment in the stocks included in the Index, excluding
dividends.
This graph has been prepared for purposes of illustration only.

The following table and examples are for purposes of illustration only. They are based on hypothetical values and show
hypothetical returns on the notes, assuming the notes are not called on any Observation Date. They illustrate the calculation of the
Redemption Amount and total rate of return based on a hypothetical Starting Value of 100.00, a hypothetical Threshold Value of
100.00, a hypothetical Step Up Value of 135.00, the Step Up Payment of $3.50 per unit and a range of hypothetical Ending Values.
The actual amount you receive and the resulting total rate of return will depend on the actual Starting Value, Threshold
Value, Step Up Value and Ending Value, whether the notes are called on an Observation Date, and whether you hold the
notes to maturity. The following examples do not take into account any tax consequences from investing in the notes.

For recent actual levels of the Index, see "The Index" section below. The Index is a price return index and as such the Ending Value
will not include any income generated by dividends paid on the stocks included in the Index, which you would otherwise be entitled
to receive if you invested in those stocks directly. In addition, all payments on the notes are subject to issuer credit risk.

Risk Factors

There are important differences between the notes and a conventional debt security. An investment in the notes involves significant
risks, including those listed below. You should carefully review the more detailed explanation of risks relating to the notes in the
"Risk Factors" sections beginning on page PS-7 of product supplement EQUITY INDICES SUN-1, page S-1 of the prospectus
supplement, and page 1 of the prospectus identified above. We also urge you to consult your investment, legal, tax, accounting, and
other advisors before you invest in the notes.

§ If the notes are not automatically called, depending on the performance of the Index as measured shortly before the
maturity date, you may lose up to 100% of the principal amount.
§ Your return on the notes may be less than the yield you could earn by owning a conventional fixed or floating rate debt
security of comparable maturity.
§ If the notes are called, your investment return is limited to the return represented by the applicable Call Premium.
§ Your investment return may be less than a comparable investment directly in the stocks included in the Index.
§ Payments on the notes are subject to our credit risk, and actual or perceived changes in our creditworthiness are expected
to affect the value of the notes. If we become insolvent or are unable to pay our obligations, you may lose your entire
investment.
§ Our initial estimated value of the notes is lower than the public offering price of the notes. The public offering price of the
notes exceeds our initial estimated value because costs associated with selling and structuring the notes, as well as
hedging the notes, all as further described in "Structuring the Notes" on page TS-12, are included in the public offering
price of the notes.
§ Our initial estimated value does not represent future values of the notes and may differ from others' estimates. Our initial
estimated value is only an estimate, which was determined by reference to our internal pricing models when the terms of
the notes were set. This estimated value was based on market conditions and other relevant factors existing at that time,
our internal funding rate on the pricing date and our 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
notes that are greater or less than our 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 notes
could change significantly based on, among other things, changes in market conditions, including the level of the Index,
our creditworthiness, interest rate movements and other relevant factors, which may impact the price at which MLPF&S,
BofAS or any other party would be willing to buy notes from you in any secondary market transactions. Our estimated
value does not represent a minimum price at which MLPF&S, BofAS or any other party would be willing to buy your notes
in any secondary market (if any exists) at any time.
§ Our initial estimated value of the notes was not determined by reference to credit spreads for our conventional fixed-rate
debt. The internal funding rate that was used in the determination of our initial estimated value of the notes 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 notes as well as the higher issuance, operational and ongoing liability
management costs of the notes in comparison to those costs for our conventional fixed-rate debt. If we were to have used
the interest rate implied by our conventional fixed-rate debt, we would expect the economic terms of the notes to be more
favorable to you. Consequently, our use of an internal funding rate for market-linked notes had an adverse effect on the
economic terms of the notes and the initial estimated value of the notes on the pricing date, and could have an adverse
effect on any secondary market prices of the notes.
§ A trading market is not expected to develop for the notes. None of us, MLPF&S or BofAS is obligated to make a market for,
or to repurchase, the notes. There is no assurance that any party will be willing to purchase your notes at any price in any
secondary market.
§ Your return on the notes and the value of the notes may be affected by factors affecting the international securities
markets, specifically changes within the Eurozone. The Eurozone is and has been undergoing severe financial stress and
the political, legal and regulatory ramifications are impossible to predict. Changes within the Eurozone could adversely
affect the performance of the Index and, consequently, the value of the notes. In addition, you will not obtain the benefit of
any increase in the value of the euro against the U.S. dollar which you would have received if you had owned the securities
in the Index during the term of your notes, although the level of the Index may be adversely affected by general exchange
rate movements in the market.
§ Our business, hedging and trading activities, and those of MLPF&S, BofAS and our respective affiliates (including trades in
shares of companies included in the Index), and any hedging and trading activities we, MLPF&S, BofAS or our respective
affiliates engage in for our clients' accounts, may affect the market value and return of the notes and may create conflicts
of interest with you.
§ The Index sponsor may adjust the Index in a way that affects its level, and has no obligation to consider your interests.
§ You will have no rights of a holder of the securities represented by the Index, and you will not be entitled to receive
securities, dividends or other distributions by the issuers of those securities.
§ While we, MLPF&S, BofAS or our respective affiliates may from time to time own securities of the companies included in
the Index, we, MLPF&S , BofAS and our respective affiliates do not control any company included in the Index, and have
not verified any disclosure made by any other company.
§ There may be potential conflicts of interest involving the calculation agent, which is BofAS. We have the right to appoint
and remove the calculation agent.

The Index

All disclosures contained in this term sheet regarding the Index, including, without limitation, its make-up, method of calculation, and
changes in its components, have been derived from publicly available sources, which we have not independently verified. The
information reflects the policies of, and is subject to change by, STOXX Limited (the "Index sponsor" or "STOXX"). The Index
sponsor, which licenses the copyright and all other rights to the Index, has no obligation to continue to publish, and may discontinue
publication of, the Index. The consequences of the Index sponsor discontinuing publication of the Index are discussed in the section
entitled "Description of the Notes--Discontinuance of an Index" beginning on page PS-21 of product supplement EQUITY INDICES
SUN-1. None of us, the calculation agent, MLPF&S or BofAS accepts any responsibility for the calculation, maintenance or
publication of the Index or any successor index.

General

The Index was created by STOXX, a wholly owned subsidiary of Deutsche Börse AG. Publication of the Index began in
February 1998, based on an initial index level of 1,000 at December 31, 1991. The Index is derived from the EURO STOXX Total
Market Index ("TMI") and covers 50 blue-chip stocks from 11 Eurozone countries: Austria, Belgium, Finland, France,
Germany, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Portugal and Spain. The Index is reported by Bloomberg under the ticker
symbol "SX5E."

Index Composition and Maintenance

The stocks in the represented Eurozone countries are ranked in terms of free-float market capitalization. The largest stocks are
added to the selection list until the coverage is close to, but still less than, 60% of the free-float market capitalization of the
corresponding EURO STOXX TMI, which covers 95% of the free-float market capitalization of the represented Eurozone countries.
If the next highest-ranked stock brings the coverage closer to 60% in absolute terms, then it is also added to the selection list. All
current stocks in the Index are added to the selection list. All of the stocks on the selection list are then ranked in terms of free-float
market capitalization to produce the final index selection list. The largest 40 stocks on the selection list are selected; the remaining
10 stocks are selected from the largest remaining current stocks ranked between 41 and 60; if the number of stocks selected is still
below 50, then the largest remaining stocks are selected until there are 50 stocks. The minimum liquidity criteria of the EURO
STOXX TMI also applies to the selection of index components.

The Index components are subject to a capped maximum index weight of 10%, which is applied on a quarterly basis. The
composition of the Index is reviewed annually in September. The review cut-off date is the last trading day of August.

The free-float factors for each component stock used to calculate the Index, as described below, are reviewed, calculated, and
implemented on a quarterly basis and are fixed until the next quarterly review.

The Index is subject to a "fast exit rule." The index components are monitored for any changes based on the monthly selection list
ranking (i.e., on an ongoing monthly basis). A stock is deleted from the Index if: (a) it ranks 75 or below on the monthly selection list
and (b) it ranked 75 or below on the selection list of the previous month. The highest-ranked stock that is not an index component
will replace it. Changes will be implemented on the close of the fifth trading day of the month, and will be effective the next trading
day.

The Index is also subject to a "fast entry rule." All stocks on the latest selection lists and initial public offering ("IPO") stocks are
reviewed for a fast-track addition on a quarterly basis. A stock is added, if (a) it qualifies for the latest STOXX blue-chip selection list
generated at the end of February, May, August or November and (b) it ranks within the "lower buffer" (ranks 1-25) on this selection
list. If the stock is added, it replaces the smallest component stock in the Index.

The Index is also reviewed on an ongoing basis. Corporate actions (including IPOs, mergers and takeovers, spin-offs, delistings,
and bankruptcy) that affect the index composition are immediately reviewed. Any changes are announced, implemented, and
effective in line with the type of corporate action and the magnitude of the effect.

A deleted stock is replaced immediately to maintain the fixed number of 50 component stocks. If a stock is deleted in between
regular review dates but is still a component of the EURO STOXX TMI, then the stock will remain in the SX5E until the next regular
review.

Index Calculation

The Index is calculated with the "Laspeyres formula," which measures the aggregate price changes in the component stocks
against a fixed base quantity weight. The formula for calculating the index level can be expressed as follows:

Index =
Free float market capitalization of the Index

Divisor of the Index

The "free-float market capitalization of the Index" is equal to the sum of the product of the price, number of shares outstanding, free
float factor, and weighting cap factor, for each component stock as of the time the Index is being calculated.

The Index is also subject to a divisor, which is adjusted to maintain the continuity of the index levels across changes due to
corporate actions, such as the deletion and addition of stocks, the substitution of stocks, stock dividends, and stock splits.
