when the regents determine that a brand or trade name article, thing,
or product or proprietary service is the only one which will
properly meet the needs of the University of California because the
item or service is unique, available only from a sole source, or is
designated to match others, used in, or furnished to, a particular
installation, facility, or location. Contracts for unique products or
services, or personal or professional services, shall not be made
unless the regents determine that the proposed price therefor is
