Spanish term or phrase: citación vs. convocatoria
These two terms both occur in a contract governing the issue of securities, in the clauses regarding bondholders meetings. I have always treated the terms "citación" and "convocatoria" as being basically the same thing, but here they occur together and apparently there is a difference.

CONTEXT: "Convocatoria, forma de citación y quórum de constitución y acuerdos. "

"La junta se convocará por medio de un aviso destacado publicado, a lo menos, por tres veces en días distintos en Diario ..."

"Las juntas se constituirán en primera citación, salvo que la ley establezca mayorías superiores, con los Tenedores que reúnan a lo menos la mayoría absoluta de los votos correspondientes a los Títulos de Deuda de las respectivas emisiones y, en segunda citación, con los que asistan. Los avisos de la segunda citación sólo podrán publicarse una vez que hubiere fracasado la junta a efectuarse en la primera citación y, en todo caso, ..."


Any suggestions on how to deal with these two?
