COMMENTS
From L. Edson Jeffery, Apr 20 2011: (Start)
Let U be the unit-primitive matrix (see [Jeffery])
U = U_(11,2) =
(0 0 1 0 0)
(0 1 0 1 0)
(1 0 1 0 1)
(0 1 0 1 1)
(0 0 1 1 1).
Then a(n) = Trace(U^(n+1)). Evidently this is one of a class of accelerator sequences for Catalan's constant based on traces of successive powers of a unit-primitive matrix U_(N,r) (0 < r < floor(N/2)) and for which the closed-form expression for a(n) is derived from the eigenvalues of U_(N,r). (End)
a(n) = A(n;1), where A(n;d), d in C, is the sequence of polynomials defined in Witula's comments to A189235 (see also Witula-Slota's paper for compatible sequences). - Roman Witula, Jul 26 2012

FORMULA
G.f.: x*(4-4*x-15*x^2+8*x^3+5*x^4)/(1-4*x+2*x^2+5*x^3-2*x^4-x^5). - Maksym Voznyy (voznyy(AT)mail.ru), Aug 11 2009
-A062883 = series expansion of (5-8*x-15*x^2+4*x^3+4*x^4)/(1-2*x-5*x^2+2*x^3+4*x^4+x^5) at x=infinity. (See also A189236.) - L. Edson Jeffery, Apr 20 2011
Also, a(n) = Sum_{k = 1..5} ((w_k)^2-1)^(n+1), w_k = 2*(-1)^(k-1)*cos(k*Pi/11), in which the polynomials {(w_k)^2-1} give the spectrum of the matrix U_(11,2) above. - L. Edson Jeffery, Apr 20 2011
