Using the data set from T-239 to T+963 sec from the recent telemetry downlink,
we report further analysis of BAT GRB 110324***A*** (trigger #449907)
(NAME, et al., GCN Circ. xxxx).  The BAT ground-calculated position is
RA, Dec = 268.565, -26.311 deg which is 
   RA(J2000)  =  17h 54m 15.6s 
   Dec(J2000) = -26d 18' 41.3" 
with an uncertainty of 2.7 arcmin, (radius, sys+stat, 90% containment).
The partial coding was 93%.
 
[Description about the mask-weighted light curve]
T90 (15-350 keV) is 613.9 +- 49.8 sec (estimated error including systematics).
 
The time-averaged spectrum from TTBD to TTBD sec is best fit by a simple
power-law model.  The power law index of the time-averaged spectrum is
4.25 +- 0.24.  The fluence in the 15-150 keV band is 3.1 +- 0.2 x 10^-06 erg/cm2.
The 1-sec peak photon flux measured from T+44.05 sec in the 15-150 keV band
is 0.3 +- 0.2 ph/cm2/sec.  All the quoted errors are at the 90% confidence
level.

We note that the fluence ratio in a simple power-law fit between the
25-50 keV band and the 50-100 keV band is 4.77.  This fluence ratio is larger
than 1.32 which can be achieved in the Band function of alpha=-1.0, beta=-2.5,
and Epeak=30 keV.  Thus, preliminary analysis shows that Epeak of the burst
is very likely around or below 30 keV.  Therefore the burst can be classified
as an X-ray flash (e.g. Sakamoto et al. 2008, ApJ, 679, 570).
