V2 + 5, why?

Hi.

I am flying the ATR and we have a procedure that says we set the initial climb out speed to V2 + 5, but why?

Isn't V2 the t/o safety speed which insures the best climb performance in case we should loose an engine?

The only thing I could find which is coming close is either the noise abatemant procedures, but they state V2 + 10 or 20 or an increased V2 procedure but is that the answer to why ATR is saying V2+5?
