 receive periodic updates from senior management outlining areas of compliance focus and proposed recommendations. Additionally, the Compensation Committee reviews the Company’s executive compensation program and the incentives created by the executive compensation program, to assess whether our compensation arrangements encourage properly calibrated risk-taking by our executives.

We introduce our executives and other employees to the Board so that the Board can become familiar with our key talent. Dr. Garo H. Armen, our Chairman, introduces each new Board member to our Corporate Governance policies and their responsibilities to the Company as a director.

Board Meetings and Attendance

In 2024, the Board met 4 times and acted by written consent 5 times. During 2024, all of our directors attended all meetings of the Board. All directors attended all meetings of committees of the Board on which the director served. We expect all of our Board members to attend the 2025 Annual Meeting.

Governance Guidelines

The Board is guided by our Guidelines on Significant Corporate Governance Issues (our “Governance Guidelines”). We believe our Governance Guidelines demonstrate our continuing commitment to good corporate governance. The Board reviews our Governance Guidelines from time to time, as needed, and at least once annually. Our Governance Guidelines are posted on the corporate governance section of our website athttps://investor.minktherapeutics.com/corporate-governance/documents-and-charters. No material on our website is part of this proxy statement.

Performance of Our Board

We consider it important to continually evaluate and improve the effectiveness of the Board, its committees and its individual members. We do this in various ways. The Chairman surveys the Board members to assess the effectiveness of the Board and its committees on an annual basis. Using these surveys, the Chairman assesses the Board’s performance, and reports his conclusions to the full Board. The assessment evaluates the Board’s effectiveness in reviewing executive management, conducting appropriate oversight and adding value to MiNK. Each of the Board’s standing committees also conducts annual self-evaluations.

At each Board meeting, each Board member has the opportunity to assess the effectiveness of the materials presented and the conduct of the meeting, and to offer suggestions for improvement at future meetings.

Code of Business Conduct and Ethics and Securities Trading Policy

The Board originally adopted our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics (the “Code of Ethics”) in 2021, and the Code of Ethics was updated in 2023. The Code of Ethics applies to all members of the Board and all employees of MiNK, including our Chief
