A well-known theorem of P. Hall says that if a group $G$ contains a normal nilpotent subgroup $N$ such that $G/N'$ is nilpotent then $G$ is nilpotent. We give a similar sufficient condition for a group $G$ to be an extension of a group of finite exponent by a nilpotent group.Supported by CNPq-Brazil.
