ordinary general meetings convened extraordinarily Explanation: Weird sentence that. Assemblée générale extraordinaire and assemblée générale ordinaire are usually contrasted to each other (extraordinary meeting vs. ordinary general meeting). I reckon in this instance the writer wants to say that the general meeting is ordinary but the mode of convening is extraordinary. Your phrase: "In addition, general meetings, whether ordinary (so-called 'ordinary general meetings convened extraordinarily'), or whether extraordinary, may be called at any time of the year." |

unscheduled regular meeting Explanation: As far as I know this is what is usually used in this type of context, namely in by-laws of organizations concerning official meetings. The reference I give is an English example I found. Reference: http://domino.lm-mgmt.com/aboutsta/Bylaws4-1.pdf |
