How to preserve rechargeable batteries?

I have a touchpanel system in my house, it controls most everything in the house. The problem I have is the batteries for the panels are now discontinued by Crestron. The solution from Crestron is to upgrade to a new panel, this however takes a huge effort to get a programmer out and change equipment and software.

What I did was buy up a few of these custom battery packs and I want to store them. They last about a year if you maintenance them correctly, so I purchased three more and I want to store them to be used in the next few years. Here are the specs:


Quote:
Type
Removable, rechargeable NiCad
Dimensions
1.16" / 2.94cm (H) x
4.25" / 10.78cm (W) x
2.28" / 5.79cm (D)
Weight
0.79lbs / 0.36kg



Do I freeze them? Keep them in a drawer? Refrigerate them? Put them in sealed containers? How can I keep these for future use?
