Key FeaturesMAXimizes Fund Exposure

– Provides 125% initial exposure to the CI Global High Dividend Advantage Fund with the potential for up to 200% exposure. The Fund provides global diversification, monthly distributions in a low volatility portfolio.

MAXimizes Performance– Innovative dynamic asset allocation strategy that seeks to enhance returns when

performance is positive and reduce volatility when performance is negative. New methodology means that distributions are less likely to trigger an allocation out of the Fund, allowing for greater exposure levels to the Fund relative to traditional structures.

MAXimizes Tax-Effective Monthly Distributions– The Deposit Notes distributes tax-efficient partial principal repayments, structured as

Return Of Capital (100% tax-free), equal to 75% of the Fund’s ordinary distributions.

MAXimizes Capital Protection– 100% principal protection provided by CIBC if held to maturity (8 year term).

Dynamic AllocationHow the CI M.A.X. Series 8 Asset Allocation Works• Assets may be re-balanced from time to time between mutual fund units and bonds –

based on a pre-defined set of portfolio allocation rules.

• The Distance between the NAV and the Declining Floor (see image below) determines the Target Exposure to the mutual fund units.

– The Declining Floor’s value (cost of a 0.5% coupon bond) will be reduced as distributions are paid.

– Target Exposure = 5.2 Distance

• As the Distance increases there will be increased exposure to the Fund (using leverage).• As the Distance decreases there will be decreased exposure to the Fund.

Dynamic AllocationHow the Asset Allocation Works Under Different Market

Scenarios• Issue Date: $125 per Deposit Note will allocated to the Fund units – achieved by

drawing down on a notional loan.

• Strong Performance: Distance increases resulting in an Allocation Event where additional exposure to the Fund units (up to 200%) has been provided – achieved by drawing down on a notional loan.

• Weak Performance: Distance decreases resulting in an Allocation Event where reduced exposure to the Fund units occurs –Fund units are sold to pay back loan or purchase zero-coupon bonds.

Dynamic AllocationResetting the Allocation Triggers• An Allocation Event will only occur when a meaningful change in Distance occurs

– Subsequent Allocation Events will only occur with an additional meaningful change in Distance

– Resetting the trigger levels after an Allocation Event avoids the costs of frequent re-balancing

Dynamic AllocationBenefits of the CI M.A.X. Series 8 Asset Allocation• Enhanced Return Opportunity: 125% exposure to the Fund at inception with the

potential for 200% exposure to the underlying Fund through the use of a notional loan facility.

• 100% Principal Protection: Principal is guaranteed to be fully repaid by maturity.

• Reduced De-Leveraging Probability: The Declining Floor feature means that the value of the Floor will be reduced as distributions are paid. Accordingly, the Distance will no longer be materially affected by distributions from the Note, resulting in greater exposure levels to the Fund relative to notes with the traditional floor structure.
