2001 AT valve body bolt just spins

I tried searching and cant find any answers and Im stuck in the middle of a Transgo VB mod. I got the pan off and am trying to remove one of the bolts that holds the VB in. It is just spinning and it wont come out. It was not overly tight but it just wont unthread. Im wondering if there is a nut of some sort on the back side. A few of the threads related to Transgo VB mods mentioned this issue but none, to my knowledge, listed a viable solution. Im in a real jam and any and all help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Not all the bolts you see are attaching the VB to the trans case. Look at one of the last pages of the installation guide and it'll say which ones attach the VB to the case, ONLY remove those right now to get it out then remove the others or your going to have problems and ****s going to go everywhere.
