You want a table with three rows: the first row will have a single  
cell containing the topmost table, the second row will have two cells  
each containing one of the two tables you want next to each other,  
and the third row will contain a single cell containing the final  
table. In order to make the top and bottom cells take up the total  
width of the two cells in the second row, they will need the  
colspan="2" attribute.

<table>
    <tr>
       <td colspan="2">
          <table>...</table>
       </td>
    </tr>
    <tr>
       <td>
          <table>...</table>
       </td>
       <td>
          <table>...</table>
       </td>
    </tr>
    <tr>
       <td colspan="2">
          <table>...</table>
       </td>
    </tr>
</table>

should do it.

But you shouldn't use tables for layout. Use CSS: the list wiki will  
help you find the resources where you can learn how to do a simple  
header/two columns/footer layout like this.
