    The host is SDSS J094014.54+600443.5, z_sp 0.131:

    Boilerplate: SDSS image per http://skyservice.pha.jhu.edu/DR10/ImgCutout/getjpeg.aspx, FIRST (red) contours derived from the FITS file produced using SkyView with Python code described in this RGZ Talk thread. Image center is the galaxy SDSS J094014.54+600443.5, near the ARG image (ARG00004w0; J2000.0). "z_sp" is an SDSS spectroscopic redshift of the galaxy in the center.
