FORMULA
a(n) = 15*hypergeom([ -n, n/2+3, n/2+7/2], [5, 2], -4).
Recurrence: (n+4)^2*(n+5)*(3*n - 1)*(3*n + 1)*(3*n + 2)*a(n) = 6*(n+4)*(3*n - 1)*(45*n^4 + 180*n^3 + 264*n^2 + 151*n + 20)*a(n-1) - 3*(n-1)*(3*n + 5)*(9*n^4 + 9*n^3 - 2*n^2 + 68*n + 16)*a(n-2) + (n-5)*(n-2)*(n-1)*(3*n + 2)*(3*n + 4)*(3*n + 5)*a(n-3). - Vaclav Kotesovec, Jul 05 2018
