I think what you should be trying to do is to create a New C Corporation (and then later convert to an S Corp) using the same name as the LLC, but with a new EIN#.
This is fairly common and what you need to do is have an Agent do the paperwork to open the the new C Corporation and include a letter on the LLC letterhead, stating that you give consent to use the same name to open a C Corporation.
