You can specify the corners of the transfinite surface by hand:

SetFactory("OpenCASCADE");
Point(1) = {0, 0, 0, 1.0};
Point(2) = {0, 200, 0, 1.0};
Point(3) = {100, 200, 0, 1.0};
Point(4) = {100, 100, 0, 1.0};
Point(5) = {50, 0, 0, 1.0};
Point(6) = {100, 0, 0, 1.0};
Line(1) = {1, 2};
Line(2) = {2, 3};
Line(3) = {3, 4};
Line(4) = {4, 5};
Line(5) = {5, 1};

N1 = 10; // horizontal
N2 = 20; // vertical - should be even

Transfinite Curve {2, 5} = N1;
Transfinite Curve {1} = N2 - 1;
Transfinite Curve {3,4} = N2 / 2;

Curve Loop(1) = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5};
Surface(1) = {1};
Transfinite Surface {1} = {1, 5, 3, 2};
Recombine Surface {1};

// to smooth the resulting mesh:
Smoother Surface {1} = 100;
