Selecting MAC Addresses

Is there a method for selecting the MAC addresses used by the network adapter in Parallels?

Basically I need to use Parallels on a Mac in a mainly PC government organization, but the PC IT department require a list of MAC addresses to be used. So is there a process I can use to generate the MAC Addresses for the VMs?
 
1)If you need to change MAC address of VM go Configuration Editor->Network adapter->Advanced.
2)If you need several copies of your VM with different IP addresses you should Clone(they will be generated automatically)
 
The first three bytes on my parallels MAC address are 001A00 which actually belongs to a company in Japan according to IEEE:

00-1A-00 (hex) MATRIX INC.
001A00 (base 16) MATRIX INC.
Annex of Chiyoda bld. 6-1-2
Nishi-Temma Kita-Ku
Osaka 530-0047
JAPAN

While they probably should have used locally assigned addresses instead of globally assigned ones, but the chances of a conflict are near zero.

Thanks for your help.

I did a look up of the MAC Address in my copy of Parallels and it doesn't exist anywhere
