Using the data set from T-239 to T+963 sec from the recent telemetry downlink,
we report further analysis of BAT GRB 240303***A*** (trigger #1218452)
(NAME, et al., GCN Circ. xxxx).  The BAT ground-calculated position is
RA, Dec = 229.772, -57.367 deg which is 
   RA(J2000)  =  15h 19m 05.4s 
   Dec(J2000) = -57d 22' 03.0" 
with an uncertainty of 2.2 arcmin, (radius, sys+stat, 90% containment).
The partial coding was 86%.
 
[Description about the mask-weighted light curve]
T90 (15-350 keV) is 773.17 +- 43.28 sec (estimated error including systematics).
 
The time-averaged spectrum from TTBD to TTBD sec is best fit by a power law
with an exponential cutoff.  This fit gives a photon index 1.68 +- 0.51, 
and Epeak of 15.1 +- 11.0 keV (chi squared 69.78 for 56 d.o.f.).  For this
model the total fluence in the 15-150 keV band is 5.5 +- 0.4 x 10^-06 erg/cm2
and the 1-sec peak flux measured from T-80.60 sec in the 15-150 keV band is
0.4 +- 0.2 ph/cm2/sec.  A fit to a simple power law gives a photon index
of 2.48 +- 0.11 (chi squared 77.20 for 57 d.o.f.).  All the quoted errors
are at the 90% confidence level.
