			Description of Common Stock
		

		
			Our Restated Certificate of Incorporation authorizes us to issue 100,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share. As of December 31,  2019, there were 3,339,541 shares of our common stock issued and 3,339,380 shares of our common stock outstanding, all of which are fully paid and non-assessable. As of December 31, 2019, there were 37,786 shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of outstanding options, 197,622 shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of outstanding warrants, including warrants to purchase 182,515 shares of our common stock held by Lincoln Park Capital Fund, LLC, and as of December 31, 2019,  45,886 shares of common stock reserved for future issuance under our 2013 Omnibus Incentive Plan, as amended.
		

		
			Each share of our common stock is entitled to one vote for all purposes and cumulative voting is not permitted in the election of directors. Accordingly, the holders of more than fifty percent of all of the outstanding shares of our common stock can elect all of the directors. Matters to be voted upon by the holders of our common stock require the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast at a stockholders meeting at which a quorum is present.
		

		
			There are no preemptive, subscription, conversion or redemption rights pertaining to our common stock. The absence of preemptive rights could result in a dilution of the interest of existing stockholders should additional shares of common stock be issued. Holders of our common stock are entitled to receive such dividends as may be declared by our Board of Directors out of assets legally available and to share ratably in our assets upon liquidation.
		

		
			Computershare Trust Company is the transfer agent and registrar for our common stock.
		

		
			Our common stock is listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “WWR.”
		

		
			Possible Anti-Takeover Effects of Delaware Law and our Restated Certificate of Incorporation and Amended and Restated Bylaws 
		

		
			Certain provisions of Delaware law, our Restated Certificate of Incorporation and Amended and Restated Bylaws discussed below could discourage or make it more difficult to accomplish a proxy contest or other change in our management or the acquisition of control by a holder of a substantial amount of our common stock. It is possible that these provisions could make it more difficult to accomplish, or could deter, transactions that stockholders may otherwise consider to be in their best interests or in our best interests. These provisions are intended to enhance the likelihood of continuity and stability in the composition of our Board of Directors and in the policies formulated by the Board of Directors and may discourage certain types of transactions that may involve an actual or threatened change of control of us. The provisions also are intended to discourage certain tactics that may be used in proxy fights. Such provisions also may have the effect of preventing changes in our management. 
		

		
			Delaware Statutory Business Combinations Provision.    We are subject to the anti-takeover provisions of Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law. In general, Section 203 prohibits a publicly-held Delaware corporation from engaging in a “business combination” with an “interested stockholder” for a period of three years after the date of the transaction in which the person became an interested stockholder, unless the business combination is, or the transaction in which the person became an interested stockholder was, approved in a prescribed manner or another prescribed exception applies. For purposes of Section 203, a “business combination” is 


		 


		

			 

		







defined broadly to include a merger, asset sale or other transaction resulting in a financial benefit to the interested stockholder, and, subject to certain exceptions, an “interested stockholder” is a person who, together with his or her affiliates and associates, owns (or within three years prior, did own) 15% or more of the corporation’s voting stock.
		

		
			Authorized but Unissued Stock.    Our Restated Certificate of Incorporation authorizes the issuance of up to 100,000,000 shares of capital stock, par value $0.001 per share. As of December 31, 2019, 3,339,541shares of our common stock were issued and 3,339,380 shares of our common stock were outstanding. Our Board of Directors has the authority, without further approval of the stockholders, to issue such shares, which would adversely affect the voting power and ownership interest of holders of our common stock. This authority may have the effect of deterring hostile takeovers, delaying or preventing a change in control, and discouraging bids for our common stock at a premium over the market price. 
		

		
			Advance Notice Provisions for Stockholder Proposals and Stockholder Nominations of Directors.    Our Amended and Restated Bylaws provide that, for nominations to the Board of Directors or for other business to be properly brought by a stockholder before a meeting of stockholders, the stockholder must first have given timely notice of the proposal in writing to our Secretary. For an annual meeting, a stockholder’s notice generally must be delivered not less than 90 days nor more than 120 days prior to the first anniversary of the preceding year’s annual meeting. Detailed requirements as to the form of the notice and information required in the notice are specified in the amended and restated bylaws. If it is determined that business was not properly brought before a meeting in accordance with our bylaw provisions, such business will not be conducted at the meeting. 
		

		
			Amendment of Bylaws.    Our Board of Directors is expressly authorized to alter or repeal our Amended and Restated Bylaws.  
		

		
			Special Meetings of Stockholders.    Special meetings of the stockholders may be called only by our Chairman, President or pursuant to a resolution adopted by a majority of the total number of directors. Stockholders may not propose business to be brought before a special meeting of the stockholders.
