Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

On September 23, 2025, the Board of Directors (the “ Board”) of MiNK Therapeutics, Inc., (“ MiNK”) elected Dr. John Holcomb to become a Class II director of MiNK with an initial term that expires at MiNK’s annual meeting of stockholders in 2026.

In connection with his election to the Board, Dr. Holcomb was granted an option to purchase 4,174 shares of MiNK’s common stock pursuant to MiNK’s 2021 Equity Incentive Plan and MiNK’s non-employee director compensation program. The option has a per-share exercise price equal to the closing price of MiNK’s common stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market on the date of grant and a 10-year term, and it vests over three years in equal annual installments (provided Dr. Holcomb maintains a service relationship with MiNK through each such vesting date). As a non-employee director, Dr. Holcomb will also receive cash and possible additional equity compensation paid by MiNK pursuant to its non-employee director compensation program. There are no arrangements or understandings between Dr. Holcomb and any other person pursuant to which Dr. Holcomb was selected as a director, and there are no transactions between Dr. Holcomb and MiNK that would require disclosure under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K.

On September 29, 2025, MiNK issued a press release announcing Dr. Holcomb’s appointment to the Board. A copy of this press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
