Does he plan to tell her? If so, it's not cheating.
Could be his agreement with his wife allows this sort of thing. In which case, maybe he was speaking the way he was to justify something else--a moral qualm about hiring sex, perhaps. Or maybe he doesn't want to share what his arrangement is in his marriage with you, and would rather look like a cheating husband than a participant in an open marriage. Trust me, in many circles that would be the more socially acceptable choice.
That said, I suspect it's cheating (by my definition). Just wanted to suggest some things to open your mind up a bit about it.
