Fund
• Unlike ordinary debt securities, the securities do not pay interest at a specified rate
or repay a fixed amount of principal at maturity. Instead, the securities provide for a Redemption Amount that may be greater than, equal to or less than the Principal Amount of the securities, depending on the performance of the Fund from the
Starting Price to the Ending Price.
The Redemption Amount will reflect the following
terms:
If the price of the Fund increases:
You will receive the Principal Amount plus 170% participation in the upside performance of the Fund, subject to a maximum total return at
maturity of 33.00% to 38.00% (to be determined on the Pricing Date) of the Principal Amount
If the price of the Fund decreases, but the decrease is not more than 15%, or equals the Starting Price:
You will be repaid the Principal Amount
If the price of the Fund decreases by more than 15%:
You will receive less than the Principal Amount and will have
1-to-1
downside exposure to the decrease in the price of the Fund in excess of 15%
• Investors may lose up to 85.00% of the Principal Amount
• All payments on
the securities are subject to the credit risk of Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce, and you will have no ability to pursue the Fund or the securities held by the Fund for payment; if the Issuer defaults on its obligations, you could lose some or
all of your investment
• No periodic interest payments or dividends
• No exchange
listing; designed to be held to maturity

*To the extent that the Issuer makes any change to the expected Pricing Date or expected Issue Date, the Calculation Date and Stated Maturity Date may also be
changed in the Issuer’s discretion to ensure that the term of the securities remains the same.

The Issuer’s estimated value of the securities on the date of the accompanying
preliminary pricing supplement, based on the Issuer’s internal pricing models, is expected to be between $922.20 and $935.90 per security. While the estimated value of the securities on the pricing date may differ from the estimated value set
forth above, the Issuer does not expect it to differ significantly absent a material change in market conditions or other relevant factors. The final pricing supplement relating to the securities will set forth the Issuer’s estimated value of
the securities on the pricing date, which will not be less than $922.20 per security. The estimated value of the securities is not an indication of actual profit to the Issuer or to any of the Issuer’s affiliates, nor is it an indication of the
price, if any, at which Wells Fargo Securities, LLC or any other person may be willing to buy the securities from you at any time after issuance. See “The Estimated Value of the Securities” in the accompanying preliminary pricing
supplement.
Investing in the securities involves significant risks. See “Selected Risk Considerations” in this term sheet and
“Risk Factors” in the accompanying preliminary pricing supplement, the accompanying prospectus supplement and prospectus.
This introductory term sheet does not provide all of the information that an investor should consider prior to making an investment decision.
Investors should carefully review the preliminary pricing supplement, prospectus supplement and prospectus before making a decision to
invest in the securities.

This graph has been prepared for purposes of illustration only. Your actual return will depend on the actual Starting Price, the actual Ending Price, the
