MASTER II  robotic telescope (MASTER-Net: http://87.226.242.22/all-new.php) 
located in Tunka(Siberia) was pointed to the  GRB 110328A (Cummings et 
al., GCN Circ 11823)  23 sec s after 
notice time and 1257 sec after GRB time at 2011-03-28 13:18:42.285 UT. On 
our first (180s exposure) set we haven`t found optical transient  within 
SWIFT error-box. The 3-sigma upper limit has been about 17.7mag

The second Swift trigger (Number 450161, 11/03/28, 13:40:41.20) has 
been received  during this follow-up observations. So we have synhronous 
prompt observatios of the GRB 110328A / Swift J164449.3+573451:

There are 2 preburst images 1 month before the GRB 110328A / Swift 
J164449.3+573451 tregger in MASTER Tunka DataBase.

There is no OT on our images.

Our unfiltered magnitude is determined as m = 0.8R+0.2B.
The photometry of the coadded images are based on the USNO B1.0 star 
1475-0312998 (16 45 07.13 +57 36 03.4) assuming R=19.35, B=21.3 .
Our results in agreement with Swift UVOT White limit (Breeveld et al., GCN 
Circ 11910).
