An unconstrained four gaussian fit to the Mg II profile near the flare peak indicates that the flare occurred near the central meridian of the K1 IV star, perhaps above a spot. A more likely fit to the same data places the flare at +90 ±30 km s–1 relative to the K1 IV star, indicating significant downflowing plasma.
