Default del certain rows based on word search

Hello,
I import about 50 pages of data from another program that leaves page
headers which consist of 10 rows of junk. In between these rows of headers,
there is aprox. 10 to 12 rows of good data, not always the same number of
rows. I would like to end up with just the data and delete the junk rows. The
one common identifier (for search purposes) I see is the company name in
column E of the top of the header (the 1st row of junk). How would I go about
automatically searching out and deleting the row that includes the company
name, as well as the 9 tows beneath it?. This header exists about 50 times,
so I need something that can search through and delete all of the headers.

thanks in advance for any help,
Robert
