In comparison with SDSS DR8 and 2MASS, we obtain:\n\n r'   22.11 +/- 0.08\n i'   21.90 +/- 0.09\n Z   21.52 +/- 0.18\n Y   21.40 +/- 0.31\n J   21.24 +/- 0.26\n H   20.38 +/- 0.23\n\nThese magnitudes are in the AB system, quoted with 1-sigma uncertainty, and not corrected for Galactic extinction in the direction of the GRB.  In comparison with our observations on the previous night (Watson et al., GCN 14409), the afterglow has faded by more than about 2 magnitudes in all bands.\n\nWe thank the staff of the Observatorio Astronómico Nacional in San Pedro Mártir.",
