DHCPd receives a wrong MAC-address from VirtualBox Guest

I have VM which is working with "Host-Only Adapter". I disabled VirtualBox's built-in DHCP-server. I've installed isc-dhcp-server on my hypervisor. Then I added the subnet
subnet 10.10.54.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
  range 10.10.54.2 10.10.54.254;
  option routers 10.10.54.1;
  option domain-name-servers 8.8.8.8, 8.8.4.4;
  default-lease-time 600;
  max-lease-time 7200;
}
And added a fixed address for virtual machine.
host 10-10-54-11 {
  hardware ethernet 08:00:27:de:7e:cc;
  fixed-address 10.10.54.11;
}
My virtual machine has MAC-address 08:00:27:de:7e:cc. I'm trying to send a DHCP-request from my virtual machine by this command: nmap --script broadcast-dhcp-discover. However, when DHCPd receives a request for offering IP-address for VM, DHCPd shows a completely different MAC-address and doesn't send a fixed address

Is it a bug? How to fix this problem?
