Problem description & analysis:

We have an Excel table in a non-standard format. Each range of 2 rows 6 columns corresponds to 1 row 3 columns of the standard format. The standard format table will consist of the 1^st column of the 1^st row or the 1^st column of the 2^nd row (the two have the same values and just get one of them), the 2^nd column of the 2^nd row, and the 3^rd column of the 1^st row.

	A	B	C
1	John Doe		Company A
2	John Doe	john.doe@example.com
3	Jane Smith		Company B
4	Jane Smith	jane.smith@example.com
5	Alice Lee		Company C
6	Alice Lee	alice.lee@example.com
7	Bob Johnson		Company D
8	Bob Johnson	bob.johnson@example.com

Below is the expected standard format table:

	E	F	G
1	John Doe	john.doe@example.com	Company A
2	Jane Smith	jane.smith@example.com	Company B
3	Alice Lee	alice.lee@example.com	Company C
4	Bob Johnson	bob.johnson@example.com	Company D
