If he's working another job BETWEEN contracts, then I would agree. But the mention of working a 9-5 job sounds to me that he means that he's obligated his time, including his non-productive time, to be "ready" to do work between said hours. Again, what does the agreement or contract between him and the company say? Work 5-7pm on another job, then who cares?
It's the same as if the receptionist in an office reads a magazine waiting for the phone to ring or someone to walk in the door during time at work. You're still on the company's time, even though no real work is being performed. Can't work at selling Amsoil during the non-productive time at work, usually. Fine print is the king of the day here.
Personally? I'd do what was right for you, and for GOD's sake tell nobody else if you even question the stipulations. Then you won't ever have to explain anything. Cuz nothing is illegal/unethical until you get caught!
