SUMMARY TERMS
Issuer: Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce
Underlying Indices: S&P 500® Index (the “SPX Index”), Russell 2000® Index (the “RTY Index”) and EURO STOXX 50® Index (the “SX5E Index”)
Stated Principal Amount: $1,000 per security
Issue Price: $1,000 per security
Pricing Date: December 13, 2024
Original Issue Date: December 18, 2024 (3 Business Days after the Pricing Date)
Final Observation Date: December 15, 2025, subject to postponement as described under “Certain Terms of the Notes—Valuation Dates—For Notes Where the Reference Asset Consists of Multiple Indices” in the accompanying underlying supplement.
Maturity Date: December 18, 2025
Automatic Early Redemption: If, on any quarterly Observation Date beginning on March 13, 2025 and ending on September 15, 2025, the Closing Level of each Underlying Index is greater than or equal to its Initial Index Value, the securities will be automatically redeemed for an Early Redemption Payment on the related Coupon Payment Date. No further payments will be made on the securities once they have been redeemed.
Early Redemption Payment: The Early Redemption Payment will be an amount equal to (i) the Stated Principal Amount plus (ii) the Contingent Quarterly Coupon with respect to the related Observation Date.
Contingent Quarterly Coupon:

·         If, on any Observation Date, the Closing Level of each Underlying Index is greater than or equal to its Coupon Barrier Level, we will pay a Contingent Quarterly Coupon of $19.40 per security (equivalent to an annual rate of 7.76%) on the related Coupon Payment Date.

·         If, on any Observation Date, the Closing Level of any Underlying Index is less than its Coupon Barrier Level, no Contingent Quarterly Coupon will be paid with respect to that Observation Date.

Observation Dates: Quarterly, on March 13, 2025, June 13, 2025, September 15, 2025, and December 15, 2025 (the “final Observation Date”). Each Observation Date is subject to postponement for non-Trading Days and certain Market Disruption Events as described under “Certain Terms of the Notes—Valuation Dates—For Notes Where the Reference Asset Consists of Multiple Indices” in the underlying supplement.
Coupon Payment Dates: With respect to each Observation Date other than the final Observation Date, the third Business Day after the related Observation Date. The payment of the Contingent Quarterly Coupon, if any, with respect to the final Observation Date will be made on the Maturity Date. Each Coupon Payment Date is subject to postponement as described under “Certain Terms of the Notes—Interest Payment Dates, Coupon Payment Dates, Call Payment Dates and Maturity Date” in the underlying supplement.
Payment at Maturity

·    If the Final Index Value of each Underlying Index is greater than or equal to its respective Downside Threshold Level: (i) the Stated Principal Amount plus (ii) the Contingent Quarterly Coupon with respect to the final Observation Date

·    If the Final Index Value of any Underlying Index is less than its Downside Threshold Level: (i) the Stated Principal Amount multiplied by (ii) the Index Performance Factor of the Worst Performing Underlying Index.

Under these circumstances, the Payment at Maturity will be less than 75% of the Stated Principal Amount of the securities and could be zero. Even with any Contingent Quarterly Coupons, the return on the securities could be negative

Downside Threshold Level: With respect to each Underlying Index, 75.00% of its Initial Index Value

Risk Considerations

 

The risks set forth below are discussed in more detail in the “Risk Factors” section in the accompanying preliminary pricing supplement. Please review those risk factors carefully prior to making an investment decision.

 

Risks Relating to the Structure of the Securities

 

·The securities do not guarantee the return of any principal.
·The securities do not provide for regular interest payments, and you may receive no Contingent Quarterly Coupons on most or all of the Coupon Payment Dates.
·The Automatic Early Redemption feature limits your potential return.
·Investors will not participate in any appreciation in the level of any Underlying Index and the return on the securities will be limited to any Contingent Quarterly Coupons paid on the securities.
·Higher Contingent Quarterly Coupon or lower Coupon Barrier Level or Downside Threshold Level are generally associated with a reference asset with greater expected volatility and therefore can indicate a greater risk of loss.
·The payments on the securities are based only on the Closing Levels of the Underlying Indices on the Observation Dates.
·You are exposed to the price risk of each Underlying Index, with respect to both the Contingent Quarterly Coupons, if any, and the Payment at Maturity, if any.
·Because the securities are linked to the performance of the Worst Performing Underlying Index, you are exposed to greater risks of receiving no Contingent Quarterly Coupons and sustaining a significant loss on your investment than if the securities were linked to just one index.

 

Risks Relating to the Underlying Index

 

·The securities are subject to small-capitalization risk.
·An investment in the securities is subject to risks associated with foreign securities markets.
·Governmental regulatory actions, such as sanctions, could adversely affect your investment in the securities.
·Adjustments to the Underlying Indices could adversely affect the value of the securities.

 

Conflicts of Interest

 

·Certain business, trading and hedging activities of us and our affiliates may create conflicts with your interests and could potentially adversely affect the value of the securities.
·There are potential conflicts of interest between you and the calculation agent.

 

General Risks

 

·Payments on the securities are subject to our credit risk, and actual or perceived changes in our creditworthiness are expected to affect the value of the securities.
·The Bank’s initial estimated value of the securities will be lower than the initial issue price (price to public) of the securities.
·The Bank’s initial estimated value does not represent future values of the securities and may differ from others’ estimates.
·The Bank’s initial estimated value of the securities will not be determined by reference to credit spreads for our conventional fixed-rate debt.
·If CIBCWM were to repurchase your securities after the Original Issue Date, the price may be higher than the then-current estimated value of the securities for a limited time period.
·Economic and market factors may adversely affect the terms and market price of the securities prior to maturity or early redemption.
·The securities will not be listed on any securities exchange and we do not expect a trading market for the securities to develop.

 

Tax Considerations

 

You should review carefully the discussion in “Additional Information About the Securities — United States Federal Income Tax Considerations” and “— Certain Canadian Federal Income Tax Considerations” in the accompanying pricing supplement, “Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences” in the underlying supplement and “Material Income Tax

 

2

 

 

Consequences—Canadian Taxation” in the prospectus concerning the U.S. and the Canadian federal income tax consequences of an investment in the securities, and you should consult your tax adviser.
