Caption: Figure 4.

Photometric SEDs generated on subsequent nights from multicolor Gemini South and Gemini North observations. The scale and assumed host extinction are the same as in Figure  3. The color is consistent with constant evolution early, but shifts dramatically redward at very late times, likely due to the appearance of a very luminous supernova.
