AJAX :: Using Update Panel - Makes The Labels Text In Panel_C Blank When Click On A Row In Gridview

I have three panels on a page:

panel_A has a gridView gv1 with PageSize = "5" OnRowCommand = "LoadCompanyInfo" OnPageIndexChanging="gridView_PageIndexChanging1"
Panel_B has gridview gv2 with PageSize = "5"
OnRowCommand = "SelectEmployee" OnPageIndexChanging="gridView_PageIndexChanging2"
Panel_C has labels CompanyID, CompanyName, EFirst, ELast and EMiddle.
Panel_A panel_B and panel_C are in an update panel.

Each row in gv1 is a LinkButton, so if I click on a row, it runs a method 'LoadCompanyInfo' which updates the labels in panel_C and also populates the gridview on panel_B. This part is working fine, when I click on a row in gv1, it updates the labels text in Panel_C and populates gv2 in panel_B. I am having the following issues:

1. When I click on a row in gv2, it makes the labels text in panel_C blank and gv2 also becomes blank, shows EmptyDataText. I expect it to just update EFirst, ELast and EMiddle. in panel_A.

2. When I click on the next page no on gv1 it fires LoadCompanyInfo method first and then goes in the gridView_PageIndexChanging1 event. I expect it to go in the gridView_PageIndexChanging1 event only and show next page in gv1 and not in LoadCompanyInfo, because I am just clicking on page no 2 not row 2.

3. gv1 refreshes on a timer event OnTick = Timer_Tick, and it clears off data in panel_B and panel_C. I want it to just update panel_A.

I guess I will have to set up nested Update panels to accomplish this.
