The Notes will rank equally with all of our other unsecured and unsubordinateddebt obligations. If the Underlying closes at or above the Initial Level on any of the quarterly Call Observation Dates beginning on September 23,2026 and ending on the Final Valuation Date, CIBC will automatically call the Notes and pay you a Call Amount equal to the principal amount perNote plus a Call Return. The Call Return, and therefore the Call Amount, increases the longer the Notes are outstanding. If the Notes are not calledbut the Final Level is at or above the Downside Threshold (75.00% of the Initial Level), at maturity, CIBC will repay the principal amount. If the Notesare not called and the Final Level is below the Downside Threshold, at maturity, CIBC will repay less than the principal amount, if anything, resultingin a loss on your initial investment that is proportionate to the decline in the Closing Level of the Underlying from the Trade Date to the FinalValuation Date, and you will lose up to 100% of your principal amount. Investing in the Notes involves significant risks. The Notes do not pay any interest. You may lose some or all of your principal amount. Youwill be exposed to the market risk of the Underlying on each Call Observation Date. Generally, the higher the Call Return on a Note, thegreater the risk of loss on that Note. The contingent repayment of principal only applies if you hold the Notes to automatic call or maturity.Any payments on the Notes, including any repayment of principal, are subject to the creditworthiness of CIBC. If CIBC were to default on itspayment obligations, you may not receive any amounts owed to you under the Notes and you could lose your entire investment.
