“creation of 75 full-time equivalent post construction jobs”Executed agreement, p. 1

Statutory clause

This is not a performance remedy.

“If during the term of the Agreement, BPOW is convicted of a violation under 8 U.S.C. § 1324a(f), BPOW shall repay the Infrastructure Incentive provided under the Agreement plus interest, at the rate of 6% compounded annually from the date of conviction until paid, not later than the 120th day after the date of conviction.”Executed agreement, p. 19

Texas Government Code 2264 requires this provision in every such agreement. It is triggered by employing unauthorised workers, not by missing a build or jobs target. The contract records no repayment remedy for the obligations above.
