Default Tensioning Roller Bracket Removal Help

Hi. I've almost got the cambelt off but have run into a small problem. I tried to remove the roller bracket with the 4mm allen key bolt and the bolt just rounded off immediately. Any suggestions for getting this out?

Undo both of the other bolts then tap the bracket upwards/CCW?

What Ken said, then what Aryan said. If that doesn't work, do what Sean said.

Did that and it worked. Thanks

It was actually embarrassingly obvious and easy
