If the fare is in one of the excluded classes, you can put it on hold, then call AA and have it upfared to an eligible fare code.
Specifically, the lowest cost BXP1-eligible fare codes are G and V.
You should probably call the AA Meeting Services dept. to upfare, as they are the ones you will have to talk to anyway to request/confirm the upgrade.
