Formula
a(n) = 1/n! * Sum_{k=0..n} 3*(-1)^(n-k)*binomial(n,k) * k^n * (k+3)^(n-1).
a(n) = 1/n! * [x^n] Sum_{k>=0} 3*k^k*(k+3)^(k-1)*x^k / (1 + k*(k+3)*x)^(k+1).
a(n) = [x^n] 1 + 3*x*(1+3*x)^(n-1) / Product_{k=1..n} (1-k*x).
a(n) = [x^n] 1 + 3*x*(1-3*x)^(n-1) / Product_{k=1..n} (1-(k+3)*x).
a(n) ~ 3 * 2^(2*n) * n^(n-3/2) / (sqrt(Pi*(1-c)) * exp(n) * (2-c)^(n-1) * c^(n+3/2)), where c = -LambertW(-2*exp(-2)) = 0.4063757399599599... . - Vaclav Kotesovec, May 22 2014
