[Plugin: Events Manager] Additional paragraph tag in event_list

I use the event_list shortcode with attributes for listing events on a home page like this:

[events_list limit="2" scope="future" format="<li>#j #M #Y<br/> #_LINKEDNAME</li>" format_header="<ul>" format_footer="</ul>"]

But the HTML output is like this:

<ul>

<li>7 Dec 2011<br/>  <a href='http://website/example' title='Example title'>Example title</a></li>
<p>
<li>17 Dec 2011<br/>  <a href='http://website/example2' title='Example title'>Example title</a></li>
<p>
</ul>

The problem is the additional <p>, which, first of all isn’t closed, and second of all is not valid HTML (since it’s inside the
<ul>. Where is this <p> coming from?
