FWIW, Tesla is a high volume stock and over a billion dollars worth of TSLA shares are traded daily. It's comparably liquid to GOOGL.

The full $325m would be about 1.5M shares which would be 15,000 options contracts. Quite a bit, but not too far from the current action in some December strikes (the 50 put has 11,883 open contracts).

tl;dr You could quite easily either divest of the stake outright or protect a large portion of it through options.
