(1) the recessional velocity is from Falco et al. 1999, PASP, 111, 438; the best fit is obtained with energetic SN 1991T around one week before maximum light.

Classification was done with GELATO (Harutyunyan et al. 2008, A&A, 488, 383) and SNID (Blondin and Tonry 2007, ApJ, 666, 1024). The Asiago classification spectra are posted at the website http://sngroup.oapd.inaf.it.
