            This Amendment Number 6 to the Schedule 13D filed by Fredric P.
Sapirstein dated February 14, 2000 reflects the vesting of options to purchase a
total of 75,000 shares of Common Stock, and amends Items 3, 5, 6 and 7 of the
Schedule 13D as follows:

ITEM 3.     SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION.

            Item 3 is hereby amended by adding the following:

            This Amendment No. 6 relates to the partial vesting of two
previously granted stock options with respect to a total of 75,000 shares of
Common Stock. On January 29, 2000, the second tranche of a non-qualified stock
option to purchase a total of 180,000 shares of Common Stock, which was granted
to the Reporting Person on January 29, 1998, vested. This second tranche
consisted of 60,000 shares of Common Stock.

            On January 20, 2000, the first tranche of an incentive stock option
to purchase a total of 45,000 shares of Common Stock, which was granted to the
Reporting Person on January 20, 1999, vested. This first tranche consisted of
15,000 shares of Common Stock.

            On January 25, 2000, under the Hoenig Group Inc. 1996 Long-Term
Stock Incentive Plan, the Reporting Person was granted a ten-year, non-qualified
stock option to purchase 150,000 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of
$9.437 per share as part of the Reporting Person's 1999 compensation. One third
of the option (i.e., 50,000 shares of Common Stock) vests on each of January 25,
2001, January 25, 2002 and January 25, 2003.

ITEM 5.     INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER.

            Item 5 is hereby amended by substituting the following for
subsection (a) thereof:

            (a) According to the Corporation's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for
the quarter ended September 30, 1999, as of November 10, 1999 the Corporation
had issued and outstanding 8,618,173 shares of Common Stock.

            The Reporting Person is the beneficial owner of 1,477,400 shares of
Common Stock or 15.3% of the outstanding Common Stock, consisting of (i) 442,400
shares of Common Stock owned directly and (ii) 1,035,000 shares of Common Stock
of which the Reporting Person has beneficial ownership pursuant to stock options
that have not yet been exercised.

            Item 5 is further amended by substituting the following for the
first paragraph of subsection (b) thereof:

            (b) The Reporting Person has the sole power to vote, or to direct
the vote of, 1,477,400 shares of Common Stock, and sole power to dispose of, or
to direct the disposition of, 1,477,400 shares of Common Stock. The Reporting
Person does not share the power to vote, or to direct the vote of, or power to
dispose of, or to direct the disposition of, any shares of Common Stock.

ITEM 6.     CONTRACTS, ARRANGEMENTS, UNDERSTANDINGS OR RELATIONSHIPS WITH
            RESPECT TO SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER.

            Item 6 is hereby amended by deleting the last paragraph and by
adding the following:

            On January 29, 2000, the second tranche of a non-qualified stock
option to purchase a total of 180,000 shares of Common Stock, which was granted
to the Reporting Person on January 29, 1998, vested. This second tranche
consisted of 60,000 shares of Common Stock.

            On January 20, 2000, the first tranche of an incentive stock option
to purchase a total of 45,000 shares of Common Stock, which was granted to the
Reporting Person on January 20, 1999, vested. This first tranche consisted of
15,000 shares of Common Stock.

of the option (i.e., 50,000 shares of Common Stock) vests on each of January 25,
2001, January 25, 2002 and January 25, 2003.

            The Reporting Person has beneficial ownership of 1,035,000 shares of
Common Stock pursuant to stock options that have not been exercised.
