PS pump stuck?

I am trying to swap out the belts on my new to me bird and have gotten all the accessories to move except the PS pump. I'm pretty sure I got all the bolts I needed to to unsecure it however it still won't budge.

Any assistance would be appreciated!

Ethan

Man that sucks
I had the same problem not two days ago when I was replacing the water pump, and there is always that one bolt that you cant get. (the bottom one on drivers side) So I had to put the whole thing back together because I could not find the last bolt on the power steering pump to pull the pump off. So I could not get to the last water pump bolt.
Sorry had to add that.
