Solenoid pack won't budge after bolt removal

Trying to replace a transmission solenoid pack in a 2001 Chrysler PT Cruiser. I've removed the air filter box, the battery, battery tray, the trans cooler lines, the input speed sensor and the 3 pack-to-transaxle case bolts. Now, I can't get the pack to lift out. It will not budge. It feels like it's bolted down but I'm not finding what could be preventing it from being removed. Your advice would be greatly appreciated.

The gasket may be causing it to not want to come out. Use a small screwdriver to break the gasket seal.
