I agree with the others that at the end of the day it is a purely contractual issue for you to agree with them.
Having said that it is unusual and in my view an unacceptable try-on. Bear in mind that under the contract they MUST "act only on instructions from the data controller" and if you want John's data for ANY reason you can simply instruct them to provide a copy. Your contract can include charging mechanisms but I see no reason to single out an SAR for special treatment.
Indeed if being pedantic and zealous I might argue that telling them John has made an SAR may be a breach of P1 - what business is that of the data processor ?
