Pretty much any sound editing software has the capability to save a file with a different bitrate.

Obviously, a more intensive application like Adobe Audition or Sony Sound Forge will give you more customizability, but even a small freebie program will probably work.

Open a project, import the clip with 12 bit audio, export the clip with 16 bit audio.

That's the easiest way to do it, and depending on your edit software may be a good way to do it. Some software is better than others (better=higher quality) when it comes to audio manipulation, so do a check of your software to see if it does a decent job.
