I found the reference, in a printed copy: IEEE Std 802-1990, para 5.2 "The Universally or Locally Administered (U/L) Address Bit (2nd bit of octet 0) is the bit directly following the I/G Address Bit. This bit indicates whether the address has been assigned by a local or universal administrator. Universally administered addresses have this bit set to 0. If this bit is set to 1, the entire address space (i.e, 48 bits) has been locally administered."
