Sandbagging Provision usually shows up when the team is converting a legal, tax, finance, reporting, or operating detail into an actual decision. It may appear in diligence notes, side letters, capital call records, distribution models, closing binders, board materials, or investor updates. The owner should record the source evidence and next action. The practical standard is whether another person could open the file later and see what changed, who approved it, what investor or operator impact it had, and when the issue should be reviewed again.1,2
