He can just accept your contract.  No worry about his request.

Hi Julia, 

 

I can see that you have sent the freelancer an offer, and you have deposited money for the first milestone. I would like to clarify that this hasn't been paid to the freelancer yet, and this money is currently in escrow. Here is more information on escrow for fixed-price jobs. This help article here share more information about releasing payment to the freelancer, and releasing less than/more than the full amount of the money in escrow. 

If you have further questions, please don't hesitate to reach out.
