In the fridge the bacteria will continue to grow but very slowly -- the upshot is that they will lose your plasmid within a month or two. Don't store them in the fridge.
In case you have a non frost-free fridge (the one's that have ice deposition), the freezer won't defrost regularly and can thus be used for storage. You bacteria should easily withstand upto 5 freeze-thaw cycles.
Good luck!
